I've never purchased MH before. I had had a North Face bag that I had grown nostalgic for until it began wearing out bad. I shopped online for about a month looking for the right replacement. I came across the Fluid 26 numerous times throughout my searching. Once I saw the video I was sold. The video showed how versatile the bag really is. The bag has plenty of smart storage and streamline features. I mainly use it for work/bicycle commute and running around town. It's great for any occasion.

I've been using this bag as my daypack for the past 4 months. It is very versatile and holds much more than its 26L rating would indicate. The multiple compartments, including a felt-lined sunglass case, makes it easy to organize the little loose items. The shoulder harness is comfortable, and the backing breathes well. The overflow/helmet external pocket is useful for storing jackets and other bulky items. One complaint however - the belt clips are small and easily damaged.

I simply adore this backpack! It is incredibly comfortable, even fully (and I do mean fully!) loaded. I have 3 small children and use it weekly for hiking. I honestly do not even feel it's weight (and this is with 5 or 6 full water bottles, spare clothing changes, a portable kiddie toilet, lots of fruit and snacks, and rain gear for all). I can carry my backpack and my three year old in my arms when I need to, and my back is not killing me. This is really the most convenient (so many pockets!) and wearable bag I own. I look for excuses to use it just day-to-day! ;-D
