I bought this about 6 months ago and I've taken it on day trips as well as backpacking. The webbing hoops on the sides allows me to easily secure it to the outside of my pack without opening the bag itself. The hoops also allow for variety in attachment preferences, so I can keep the bag secure no matter the contents. I pick up any trash I find on the trail, providing I have room for it within the sack, including crushed beer cans, which I worried may puncture the bag. One crushed can did rip the liner bag, but I never even noticed because the 70D sack held up like a dream, even with some fluids sloshing around in the bottom (no leaks either). I have used this as a bear bag by attaching paracord to the sack and tossing the other end of my line over a branch with a rock. Once, when no rocks were present, I even chucked the bag itself. I missed, it landed poorly and did not tear or let any air out. Tough stuff! I am giving it 4/5 because the folded plastic wings that are intended to secure the liner are difficult to work with, often allowing one side of the liner to slip out. Some teeth or ridges within these plastic wings would help massively with adequately hanging on to the liner. It can be done with patience and diligence, but it takes getting used to. Overall, this sack's features are well thought-out and it is both lightweight and durable. I recommend it to anyone who carries their own garbage out (should be everyone!), or any who carry out trail litter.
