Very comfortable daypack
Likes
I have owned several daypacks over the years including, Osprey, Gregory, REI, Mystery Ranch, Patagonia, etc. But never a Deuter. I was hesitant to buy this Speed Lite Pro because of the running-style harness. Any well-endowed woman knows what I'm talking about. But I could not be happier with how this pack carries weight. It is, without a doubt, the most comfortable daypack I have ever worn. The harness distributes the weight wonderfully. I used it as my pack while hiking the Grand Canyon and Sedona, two places where multiple liters of water is necessary. This pack was very comfortable even when carrying 3.5 liters of water, a mid layer, raincoat and snacks. I cannot recommend it enough and would absolutely purchase this brand again.
Dislikes
A couple of drawbacks for my hiking style was hip belt pockets were difficult to open and close 1-handed. I do wish pack makers would just use straight zippers rather than curved. Mystery ranch nails this. Also, the stretch mesh does stretch, but does not recover very well. After just a few uses, the mesh all stretched out.
