Well built and very comfortable
Likes
Plenty of room and the detachable lid/day pack is a very welcome plus. Fits nice and distributes the weight well so the pack doesn’t feel heavy at all. I’m very happy with my purchase. Well worth the money.

comfort and versatility

I like the detachable top lid, and the ability to attach a daylite pack for extra capacity. I will be using this pack for Aconcagua, with the daylite attached, then dropping the daylite for multi-day trips through out Argentina.

Nice, but not for me
Likes
Hip belt comfort is unreal and the pack is well-made with great features. Seemed like it was well ventilated for an internal frame pack.
Dislikes
I wish the width of the shoulder strap placement was adjustable. In the end, I prefer the way an external frame pack adjusts and carries. Just wish I could put this hip belt on my external frame pack!

Dislikes
Waistbelt comfort. The only negative about the pack I found was the comfort of the hip belt. I opted for the Osprey Xenith instead with the Bioform hipbelt and find it much more comfortable. Although now knowing that I can swap the hipbelt of the Ather out for the bioform, I may do that as well.

Bigger is better

I bought this over the Aether 70 because its weight is so close to the same and the added space is very nice to have. You cant make the pack bigger but you can make it smaller with compression straps.
Dislikes
I wish it was a little taller and less wide.

So many features! Love the J zip.

NONE REALLY. Sometimes I have a hard time zipping hip belt pocket with one hand.

Everything i wanted and more!

Just feels like a quality product. You can tell when you strap this thing on your back that you got your moneys worth. I cant see it ever failing in any way but if it does, the warranty is worth buying an Osprey.
Dislikes
If i had to pick something, I would say that it isn't waterproof. It's a bit heavy too, but that is expected at 85L.

Just what I was looking for!
Likes
Extremely well built and the suspension system is pure heaven when the pack is loaded up. I'm actually having trouble loading it all the way up, gear disappears into it and there always seems more room to put something else in there. I'm 5'9", 190# with a 30" waist - the Medium fits perfectly and the hip belts from the get go are just right. I love the bottom sleeping bag compartment, and the hydration system (separate purchase) works very well. It's a good looking, streamlined pack that will comfortably carry more than I should actually put into it.
Dislikes
It should have included a pack cover, but not a deal breaker...

Finally upgraded my 20 year old LoweAlpine pack. HOLY COW this pack is amazing. I hardly know what to do with the space and my back doesn't ache the entire week!
