Nice bag. Good for all the right reasons, not perfect, but what is?
Good bag. Nice and bright, lots of room, even has some different little compartments for stuff inside and on the sides. Would be better if it had a zipper top, but I suppose the open top and side buckles plays into the &#34;rapid response&#34; angle. It's got a pretty good capacity--room for plenty of gauze, bandage wrap, tourniquets, slings, and that kind of stuff. Even room for a few bandaids and other kiddie-level first aid gear. For what I paid it's definitely the top-tier of cheap first aid bags.<br /><br />A little theory for you: I reckon if you need a first aid bag, it needs to be obvious and look the part. This is obvious and looks the part. That helps you and everyone on the scene. It needs to have some room for useful things besides bandaids and alcohol wipes. This has room for real supplies. It needs to be handy. This is handy, with a nice carrying strap and some different pockets.<br /><br />When you need some actual for-real first aid, someone's probably bleeding, maybe badly. If it's a knee scrape of a bee sting they just need to suck it up. That's what your little pre-made kits are for. Skip the pre-made little kits and stock this baby with some serious gauze, ace bandages, tourniquets, and vet wrap. Most of your &#34;real&#34; first aid is just staunching the bleeding and keeping the subject calm. If a person is badly wounded, there's gonna be some blood, and you don't wanna be ripping off your tshirt to use for applying direct pressure. You need actual sterile gauze, and lots of it. This little guy will help you keep that stuff handy. I've got mine configured for intermediate=level trauma. If you're badly lacerated or punctured, this rig (full of the aforementioned gauze and bandages!) will keep your gear handy while you help things from getting too nasty until you can get to a real hospital.<br /><br />Nice bag overall. The best of the &#34;around $20&#34; bunch for sure.
