I like the pack, though I have just received it and not used it yet. It appears well made and suitable for my intentions.
I have, however, noticed already that the water bottle pockets need to be a little deeper and/or the draw cord longer. Yes, the 32oz stainless steel water bottles with the nesting cups do fit but they stick up just over getting them cinched in with the draw cord, especially if you put the nesting cup lid in the bottom below the cup/bottle assembly. And you definitely cannot get them cinched with the camp stove added to the group, though it will fit too (Self Reliance Outfitters set). If the draw cord was longer, at least that could be laid over the bottle cap to cinch down so that the bottle doesn't easily slide out of the cup. Looks like that's a cord modification I'll need to make so I don't lose my bottles.
