K-Cliffs Harvest Backpack Review

"I have owned two K-Cliffs bags for over a year now. I have taken one of them on over 20+ trips and the other on over 12 hikes and trips. I own a 7000ci and a 5400ci. I love them both. The 7000 is great for my longer adventures and I have had no problems with anything breaking. The 5400 is great and very comfortable; I like both bags for all the adjustments and how comfortable they are. The only complaint I have is the bungee on both bags are not the strongest. I like to put my extra layers in-between the bungee’s when I get hot while hiking, sometimes they will come loose unless I tie knots in them, then it is fine. I would recommend this bag to anyone who wants to get into the sport and get the most for there money."

"Got this pack in 2005. Broke while using it as a travel bag. Returned, got a new one free. The stitching on that one fell apart at the top, before I ever put anything in it. Returned, got a new one. The strap broke on this one just after we filled up with water on our way to the summit of Long's Peak. Returned, got a refund, bought a Gregory Whitney. Happy."

"The Harvest is a great beginner pack. The pack is very nice for the price.I am in boy scouts and this pack has helped me in many ways. The pack is very comfortable and has a lot of adjustment straps, so you can fit it for yourself easier. The bungee cord in the front of the pack is a great feature for storing extra layers and objects that you will need on the trail. The pack also has a lot of space for your gear and you can strap on sleeping bags and pads to the outside easily.The pack is also very durable. This is a great pack to purchase if you are a beginner in backpacking and hiking."
