Transporter^® Flap Backpack

This review may seem contradictory at first because many of the things I like about this pack create issues that I do not like. Some examples: 1) The Flap - Love the flap because of fast accessibility, but when opening and closing (especially when flap pocket is loaded) it causes the pack weight to shift a lot and the pack wants to fall over and just generally a little harder to handle. This is what I meant by Cumbersome in the Cons. 2) Capacity - When I first order this it was seemingly the exact type of thing I liked. Just a few pockets to keep things organized and hold the small stuff and a large compartment to shove in the big stuff. The water bottle on the inside I even kind of liked. I still love the pocket/compartment configuration but the large compartment is just not enough for my needs. I really have to cram my lunch bag in their. Now I would probably just prefer the water bottle pocket be on the outside. 3) Material - I really like that the pack uses this waterproof material. It's definitely been in the rain and the water beads right off. Love it. However, I do question it's durability. I may have had this for roughly a year and there are several points (particularly where the flap folds and on the bags bottom) where the material is almost nearly worn though and I'm not particularly rough with this bag. I suspect it won't be long before it develops holes, but I do have confidence in Osprey and their quality and warranty commitment. Would I buy this particular pack again? Probably not. I would probably consider the one with the roll top as I think it has more capacity. But in reality I would likely go with another line altogether because of the seeming lack of durability of material in the Transporter line.
