DOVO Hiking Backpack, Waterproof and Wear-resistant Lightweight Backpack Packable,Outdoor Travel Camping Daypack Foldable-ORANGE

This pack is extremely durable, has nice pockets, is very functional and lightweight, sturdy rip stop material. It is a little on the small side for larger people. Extremely nice for the price.

We purchased this to be used as a day pack for a school outdoor trip and it came back in one piece! It was lightweight yet able to carry a large water bottle, notebook, and snacks. It was flung around and placed on dirt and rocks and it did not tear or snag. It was a great find and my little one will for sure use it again. The straps are adjustable and it fits perfectly for an 11 year old.

Comes in a small pouch; I tossed it into my carryon for extra space; I got multiple colors the only criticism is the straps are too short for an large adult American frame to carry comfortably on his/her back as a backpack full of stuff besides It's flimsy; I wouldn't trust it to carry heavy items or not to rip but as extra space to carry a hat and towel it should be fine.

Purchased for a trip - to have snacks, books, etc on the flight, which can then be stuffed into a larger backpack.Criteria: highly packable, wider shoulder straps, outside pocket, good external water bottle solution. This backpack seemed to be a good size and seemed a little less shapeless than the basic sack w/ straps. Don't get me wrong, it's still light fabric, but it's sewn in such a way as to encourage a little more vertical packing. The water holders comfortably fit a 1L Nalgene bottle - high up enough on the bottle that I don't think it'll flip out (and this is not trying to use the external stuff-sack/water-bottle holder Interior seams are well finished and look clean. Very satisfied for the ~$12 spent. Will take it out for some test walks over the next few days and do some zip/unzipping. I'll update review if our extended trip flags any fatal errors. Otherwise, glad I gambled on this when it only had 100 reviews!Edit: hour long walk learnings: 1) side pockets will let the nalgene 1L bottle slip out if you only have the strap on 1 shoulder and the backpack is not fully packed. However, the stuff sack / water bottle holder handles that problem VERY well - quite secure. It's a little fussy to put the bottle back in the sack, but holds it nicely/ 2) carrying a couple pounds of groceries in it for a 30 min walk worked just fine. No fatal flaws so far.Updated: After 10 days of travel, the bottom of the front pocket seam has ripped open about 2", even though I had not stuffed that pocket (held sunglasses in a soft case). See last photo. I'm super glad I didn't have anything more important in there like a wallet, keys, or $. I did NOT stress that pocket, it was not overstuffed. I can repair the rip, and I will, but I can't in good conscience give it more than 3 stars as a result.I will say the backpack otherwise worked well - good capacity, the zipper up top was easy to access, and the lack of padding on the shoulders was not annoying, even when I carried enough stuff for a quick overnight (summer) jaunt. It probably made it more comfortable when I had on my large backpack and wore this pack in the front for travel. The two mesh pockets worked really well for stuffing in a water bottle, extra masks, and hand sanitizer for easy access. I didn't use the extra water bottle bag. Learned that I'd prefer to have a way to do some minor partitioning in the main compartment, but that's not the manufacturer's fault.

I love how light weight it is but still has plenty of room for everything you need!

I was so excited about ordering this bag. The size is perfect for me. However, on just the second day I had it, the bottom inside corner ripped and now everything falls into the side mesh like pocket. This is very inconvenient. I could not believe this happened after only the 2nd day. I feel like I wanted my money.

I especially liked how lightweight this backpack is. I chose it for my grandson to use as a carryall at the beach. It has several pockets and is roomy enough for his needs, but not so heavy to be cumbersome. It is easily stored in the small water bottle bag that is included. I think this is a good buy for this purpose.

Bag is much smaller than implied on thw website and the material is poor quality - extremely thin.
