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

I was looking for a backpack to put my QRP (Low Power Ham Radio) equipment into, then toss into the basket on my bicycle and head out to a day of portable operations in various parks. It's definitely lightweight, holds all my gear except for my battery which I carry in a carry case made especially for that. All together it fits nicely into my bicycle basket. My transceiver a Xiegu G106, coax, 17 foot telescoping antenna, ground spike, the antenna body which the spike and telescoping antenna screw into and my antenna matcher all fit inside the main bag of the backpack. Expect the bag won't last forever being so light, HOWEVER for the price if I get 2 seasons out of it I'll be ecstatic, if I get more I'll be more than pleased. At this price the first signs of wear and tear I'll buy another immediately.

Took it on vacation. Takes up little room in the suitcase. Opens up large enough to carry all the things I want on a hike. Held water, phone, snacks, selfie stick, binoculars, etc. and fit my and my husbands sweatshirts.

This is the kind of bag you carry in another bag for backup use. I carry it in my computer bag in case I need it for impromptu grocery stops or carrying other unexpected items.Also decent for travel for the same purpose. Carry in a backpack an use in case the kids unexpectedly need a backpack or for wet clothes at the beach, etc.I have purchased a few and first thing I do when it arrives is reinforce the seams with a Speedy Stitcher. Connection points of the straps, ends of the zippers. The obvious failure points and anywhere else that reviews have noted as weak spots. Do that and the bags work out well. Should you have to do that? Well you're paying like $10 so don't expect too much if you don't.

I have no problems with the lightweight material, it’s a $10 backpack. I take issue with the zippers not staying together. We took this with us on a city outing. Lots of walking, empty backpacks to start. I had this one. When I got to the store to put less than a pound of items in the bag I noticed the zipped zipper had come apart. Thought perhaps I pulled it as we road the train to different parts of the city. So I unzipped the bag and put in the items, zipped it and carried the backpack in my hand. I looked down a while later and it was open. I transferred my items to another bag, zipped this bag and once again it came open. Everybody else bags stayed zipped. I am sending this back.

This is a $30 bag for $10! It's a steal if you only need to transport smaller items somewhere, very kick ass!

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.

Not recommended for anything heavy. It ripped after having it for less than a month. 🤦‍♀️ was being used for usualy water bottle and some papers or small book nothing too heavy.

Which is … holds my stuff and suits my needs, in walk about 10 miles a day need to carry camera equipment water battery packs (7lbs tops) fairly comfortable.
