Very basic, but gives some peace of mind - M. LaFleur, Jan 02, 2008

I bought this kit after doing a lot of research on survival kits. But don't assume that after all that research, this one came out on top, it is just that the best way seems to be a DIY approach (following lists online), but I had no time/patience to track down every single component of a first-rate kit. This purchase was about convenience, and a starting point.

For that, this kit seems fine. We just moved to Chile and I wanted to have something to keep around the house in case of a big quake, and to take with us on long car trips. I don't think the gloves are particularly useful (I hope not to find out), and I'll add more water/food to it and store some at the house. I will also add some more child-specific items, a better knife, and sunblock/hats, and anything else I can think of and come across on the online guides. I also purchased a pocket survival kit that has things like fishing items.

The backpack itself feels very cheap, but I won't be lugging it around. It is just a place to combine all the items for a quick escape if needed. For that it is fine. The whole kit is a bit heavy, mostly due to the water.

I do recommend this as a starter set, but I would upgrade some of the items to fit your family's needs, and I would store an additional backpack with water/food if you are in a place with the potential for natural disasters.
