Very well-made - solid straps....you can collapse it when not in use WITHOUT unfastening it. It also fits wide bottles and even mini umbrellas.

VERY useful if you need an extra space bit of space on your backpack.

i used to carry beverages to work, it is very useful. and at that price its a deal, great design and quality

I have this attached to my Tenba Messenger bag and it works.

There are two little side flaps that I think is more designed for attaching to the backpack. The side flaps kind of stick out when attached to the messenger bag so it doesn't look 100% a custom fit. But the attachment is pretty secure and it has not problem holding the weight of a 16-24 ounce water bottle.

I use this to carry a 40 ounce Klean Kanteen water bottle attached to a Crumpler 5 Million Dollar Home Photo Bag shoulder bag. It works well for that purpose and it was easy to attach it to the bag. The only problem I've had with it is that the plastic piece used to adjust the drawstring rubs against the bottle, and over time has completely scratched off all of the paint around the middle of the bottle.

Great componet to backpack. Can be used for extra long lens or a water bottle. Easy to attach to several areas on backpack. Built sturdy but lite weight.

My wife and I will be making a trip to Africa in April and I wanted a pack that would go into the overhead of a plane and still be able to accommodate 2 cameras with lens attached. I also wanted a pack I could mount a small tripod to. I also like the fact that I can remove the waist belt when not needed and the straps can be zipped into a compartment which I think is a really nice feature for plane travel as well.

I was going to purchase the mini version of this pack but I decided to purchase the small size instead when I decided to also purchase a netbook computer to download all the photos I will be taking as this is a photo safari, and my wife will be taking a camcorder as well. The computer compartment will easily accommodate the computer and a spare battery. I will also be taking two other lens and many small items including several batteries and memory cards and all will fit into the pack.

The pack is good looking and the side handles will make it easy to load into the overhead compartment of a plane and transport all the gear I will need into the safari vehicle. We are also planning a day trek to a native village and the pack will easily carry my photo gear and extra clothes as well. The pack is well made and thought out and small pouches such as the lens/bottle caddy, which I also purchased, can be attached to the pack for added capacity as well.

I think this pack will be ideal for our trip and the many future hikes and photo trips I am planning. I highly recommend this pack as an all around photo and general hiking pack.
