 One Great Bag! December 29, 2006
Brett Neilson (South Jorda, Utah)

The Access Day Pack by High Sierra is one of the best Back Pack/Day Packs I have ever owned. It is VERY roomy and has plenty enough space to store just about anything. I frequently travel with 2 laptops a sizable 3 ring binder, several hand held radios and at least one camera. This means that I not only need a lot of space I need a bag that will support the weight of the gear. After 3 years of continual use only a few stitches are coming loose on the shoulder straps.
The Access Day Pack, has been great! Although it is not waterproof, it comes with its own rain coat that covers the bag just in case you get caught in undesirable weather. I thought that was a cool feature!
I also an not a big fan of pre-sized pockets and pouches as they never fit my stuff. However the pockets in this bag are really good size and can hold most cellphones or 2-way radios.
The things I would change about the bag are:
1) The top MP3 style pocket. It is big enough to hold your iPod but if you put much else in it you run out of room quickly.
2) I would add another "water bottle" holder on the left side. These pockets are always useful and having a second one would only make this bag that much better.
3) I would add a rubberized waterproof bottom to the bag. If you set it down in a wet area for very long the water will soak through.
Hope this helps...

I bought this backpack for my tour of Europe. I tour cities in bursts of 2-3 days so this pack has to hold my things for 2-3 days.
Pros:
1. It has many pockets for all kinds of gadgets or items you may have.
2. The bottle holder is far better than in any previous backpack i have owned. It has a zipper to it so you can tighten the bottle agaist the pack to hold it down.
3. It has a rain cover. I haven't needed to use it yet but im sure that day will come.
4. The laptop padding is good. I have had the pack tip over and fall on the floor. The laptop was protected each time.
5. The pack has padding for your back as well. However, there is a con here that ill explain further down.
6. The pack is spacious and wide enough for my dslr camera bag. This is a big plus for me.
Cons:
1. The padding for your shoulders and back has a tendency to cover air flow and makes you sweat. The pack is advertised to have good air flow but this is not true in my experience.
2. The wait strap is excessive and unnecessary in my opinion. My pack is never heavy enough to need it.
3. The pack is advertised to be able to hold upto 17in. laptops but i have serious doubts about that. My 15.4in widescreen laptop fits snugly and hangs out of the top of the covering a good bit. The dimensions of my laptop are the following: 14.25" x 10.55" x 1.54"
Overall a very good pack, best i've had yet.
GREATEST BACKPACK ON EARTH April 28, 2007

The backpack is the greatest backpack I have ever owned. I don't use a locker at school, and this backpack easily holds all of my books and binders. Plus, with the great strap and back support it doesn't feel like I'm carrying anything even though it has at least 50 lbs of stuff in it!
I especially love the immense amount of pockets this backpack has. It has enough pockets to not only fit but organize all my belongings. Now I can find anything, including my keys with the super cool key clip that alows you to clip your keys into the one of the pockets. This comes in very handy.
However, the greatest feature of this backpack is that it is the "cross-trainer" of back packs. It is extremely useful for school and camping without compromising either. It even has a concealable water bottle holder and rain cover, which both come in very useful, seeing as it always rains while I go camping.
All in all, everyone in the world should use this backpack. It comfortable, resizable, and has enough features that anybody can find a perfect use for it. Plus, it's guaranteed for life by High Sierra, and much cheaper than any other heavy duty backpack I know of. I will never use a different kind of backpack ever as long as I live.

Best backpack I've ever owned. I bought it for school in 10th grade, and haven't used anything else since. The bag is built completely solid, has plenty of space and useful features, and is comfortable. I lost this bag in 12th grade, and bought the exact same one and have been using it into college.
I can pick this bag up from any part (except for the zippers I guess, but that's just because of the zipper's design), and the seams will hold. I've dropped my bag, dragged it, sat on it, spilled water on it, and even hung skis from it during my ski touring. Two years since buying it, it still looks new, and the seams are still as strong as ever.
My 15.4" laptop fits snugly in the built-in laptop compartment, and stays snug thanks to the extra padding and adjustable clip in the compartment. The bag also comes with one water bottle holder, a rain cover, and a pocket for MP3 players that have a hole for headphones. It also came with a removable cell phone holder that I removed because it was unnecessary. But this all attests to the quality of the product.
The only qualm I have with this bag is the padding on the back. The advertisement claims it encourages airflow, but to me it feels like it doesn't breathe at all. But it's okay because the padding is soft and the bag always fits comfortably. The waist and chest straps are also pretty handy when they're needed.
Overall, this is a great multipurpose bag. The laptop compartment, MP3 pocket, and water bottle holder are good for use on campus, and the solid seams, larger capacity, waist and chest straps, and the hook on the front of the bag help make this bag a great backpack for light backpacking and general outdoor recreation.
The best back pack on earth!!!! August 24, 2007

This is absolutely the best back pack I have ever owned. I started my first year of college after being out of H S for a few years. I wasn't sure what to expect in the way of books and supplies I would have to carry. This back pack is THE largest back pack I have found anywhere. It is the most durable, and even after loading approx. 50 lbs. of books/supplies into it it is still easy to carry. I have so many books to lug around that I even found and bought a second one pack! Even though I haven't yet taken my laptop to class with me, I love the fact that this back pack has such a well padded sleeve built right in! I definitely recommend this back pack to anyone. No matter if you need it for school, work or recreation. This is absolutely the only back pack you will ever need!
