Tools and Hardware Reviews of Quakehold! 70280 Grab-'n-Go Emergency Kit, 2-Person, 3-Day Backpack
Customer Review: Great start on a 72 hour bag
Summary: 4 Stars
I love this backpack has some extra room - so you can add essential items for your family that aren't included. Overall - a really good start. I added a Swiss army knife, some gum and hard candy, pull ups (I have small kids), sanitary napkins, and a few other odds and ends to make this a more complete bag for our family.
I used this as a start, then created my own bag (we have five in our family). I would feel very safe with just the contents that came in the bag though. The things I added were just "extras" that were important to me.
If you don't have a 72 hour kit - go ahead and purchase this one. It will get you at least moderately prepared and you can build from there. The bag is small, so it will easily fit in almost any trunk and I "think" would probably even fit in a motorcycle carrier. So, just like jumper cables should be in every trunk, this would be an easy way to be a little more safe. The food products and water are good for five years, so you don't have to think about it and rotate things out every six months as you would with something like bottled water.
Customer Review: I needed this for my family.
Summary: 5 Stars
I work in a public safety position and I am often reminded of the need to have a emergency "Go Bag" for 3 days of water food etc. I bought 2 bags which will accommodate 4 individuals. I feel better now that I know I have most of the basic items already packed in one place ready to take out of the door in case of an emergency..Customer Review: Is that really food?
Summary: 4 Stars
Hopefully I'll never need to find out if that brick they call food in this bag is edible. But, it is really a complete package, and small enough to haul in your car, just in case. Can't be too careful in earthquake country.Customer Review: Much smaller than I thought it would be
Summary: 4 Stars
Hello
I highly recommend this Grab and Go pack, just to have in the car or home in case of emergency. My comment about the size notwithstanding, it has everything to get me by for a few days should something nasty happen. I have supplemented it with my own first aid and fire starting additions, and it should prove handy if I ever need it.
Customer Review: Nice assortment of supplies
Summary: 4 Stars
I bought this for my brother, who lives in Florida. He really appreciated it and thought the assortment of stuff inside this handy pack was great. I spent quite a bit of time comparing different emergency packs, and this one does seem to be the best deal for the money. Hopefully he'll never have to use it, but it's good peace of mind for a decent price. I added a few items that I thought it needed, including a multi tool knife, an emergency radio/flashlight combo, and some other stuff. You can get ideas from emergency preparedness web sites.
