3 out of 5 stars Good for Emergency   September 18, 2009

This product makes no false statements. You get what it says. It is very much only for an emergency. The bag is small enough to make it a daily travler in any car. The first aid kit is just enough for basic cuts and such. The bag has about a 4" by 4" section to keep additional items like a multi-tool and flashlight. Do not expect a large bag for "survial" equipment, it is a basic emergency kit.


4 out of 5 stars Is that really food?   May 25, 2009

Hopefully I'll never need to find out if that brick they call food in this bag is edible. But, it is really a complete package, and small enough to haul in your car, just in case. Can't be too careful in earthquake country.


4 out of 5 stars Easy, affordable emergency solution...   May 5, 2009

I live in Santa Monica and with all the little shakers that we've been experiencing, I realized that I can't keep delaying my purchasing of an emergency kit. I looked at a bunch of different ones available on Amazon and elsewhere, and this one seemed to be the best combination of value and quality. Because I had already bought a survival radio, my options were limited...

The strangest aspect about these things are their limited shelf life. Part of you wants to use it because you spent money on it, then the rational part of your brain reminds you that you never want to be in such a dire situation!

So here is to being prepared...



5 out of 5 stars IT WORKS!   April 21, 2009

Purchased this with my prime account, and paid extra for the overnight delivery. When it arrived, I promptly kicked my wife out of my house and tossed her this pack. I let her back in three days later and she was alive. This has proven to me that it works and I now keep one in my truck.




4 out of 5 stars Great start on a 72 hour bag   April 8, 2009

I love this backpack has some extra room - so you can add essential items for your family that aren't included. Overall - a really good start. I added a Swiss army knife, some gum and hard candy, pull ups (I have small kids), sanitary napkins, and a few other odds and ends to make this a more complete bag for our family.
I used this as a start, then created my own bag (we have five in our family). I would feel very safe with just the contents that came in the bag though. The things I added were just "extras" that were important to me.
If you don't have a 72 hour kit - go ahead and purchase this one. It will get you at least moderately prepared and you can build from there. The bag is small, so it will easily fit in almost any trunk and I "think" would probably even fit in a motorcycle carrier. So, just like jumper cables should be in every trunk, this would be an easy way to be a little more safe. The food products and water are good for five years, so you don't have to think about it and rotate things out every six months as you would with something like bottled water.
