In this video we look at reasons to buy or not to buy this rucksack, and as with most things it's a compromise between what you're prepared to spend and the quality you expect or would like.

In this review we test the Transit R. I've deliberately not mentioned pricing as this seems to vary between suppliers and time of year but you should be able to find it for £120.00 or less.
American Tourister Sound Box 67 Review
Просмотров 9 тыс.Год назад
This comes with an initial intro of my thoughts on buying a suitcase before we look at the Sound Box 67. This review should cover all sizes of the same model. It is my first attempt at reviewing something so I hope I've given enough of an insight into the product. Any thoughts or criticism will be welcome as I try to improve my videos.
I just bought this exact pack, and the comfort is amazing. Perhaps try re-arranging the pack, by placing the sleeping bag in the upper main body of the pack, and carry the tent externally under the pack using the load straps, this will free up a lot of space. The lower compartment can be used for clothing. Water proofs I place under the hood .I would just use a pack liner and loose fill the sleeping bag, and leave the storage bag at home, Good luck buddy, Happy Trails... bex
Thank you for your helpful review! I’m looking for a suitcase for myself and really liked this model and enjoyed the way that you pay attention to the details
Up!
Zip breaks at 15:00, lasted 8 trips
This was such a helpful review! Very thorough and especially liked hearing about the little bits that were strange/unexpected. Down to earth and made me laugh, too- excellent!
Agree made me laugh too.
Thanks for the comment. I like to keep things lighthearted as life can easily become to serious and I've always believed I was put on this planet to have fun which is why in my clarkys adventures videos I never take myself to seriously, although this attitude doesn't always go down well at funerals.
WARNING: DO NOT GET THIS BAG I paid for this and got to penrith on the train awaiting my bus to start my camp the bag was weighed out to about 12 kg and the arms just ripped clean off I then went to millets to get it replaced I re packed it under the staffs watching as soon as I put the bag on it ripped instantly. dont cheap out on bags people!
Pleased to see my suspicions about this bag were correct but surprised that it would not handle 12 kilos which was a couple of kilos under the maximum weight that I suggested it might take. I only bought it as an option to use on single overnight trips when a smaller lighter bag would be sufficient, but took it for three days just to test it. Fortunately I have several good quality rucksacks, acquired over many years, to choose from so this purchase wasn't a complete disaster, and I hope that between us we have given prospective purchasers something to think about.
@@clarkysreviews3649 I went to millets and it ripped within 2 seconds right infront of there eyes haha
American Tourister Soundbox - Spinner M ... is a sub division of Samsonite. I ordered this one for my next Asia trip. Let's see :) Well TSA lock is helping Mafia as well ... Greetings from Germany. 👋
The Timex expedition field, the one that has large numbers I have seen them in black and blue dials, is excellent, I have the black for a year now, I have hit the dial against a hard surface three times and swim in the pool every week and the time is right on. Albert
I didn't have a scratch on the glass and I was surprised why not and then I realized that the metal rim around the glass it is about 1 mm above the glass surface.
I'm still getting the problem occasionally of the adjusting knob catching on skin / clothing and pulling out and stopping the watch other than that it's keeping excellent time.
Nice rucksack😁
Came for the watch review but actually really enjoyed thr the first few minutes, made me realise how long it's been since I've been on the water. 👍
Bit of a self indulgence but wanted to show where the watch was used and liven up a potentially boring video. Thanks for the comment.
Good review and totally agree with your comments. Just finished the cumbria way over a 6 day period loaded up up with 11kg and for the price i paid(£35) it held up extremely well, i just took care putting it on and taking it off. Got absolutely hosed on all day going over Skate pass and the rain cover just showed a lttle moisture had creeped in on the very top but more importantly not in the bag but i had all the important stuff in waterproof stuff sacks anyway. I added some shock chord on the very front where there are some very convenient loops to criss cross, made an excellent waterproofs stash. As my very first long distance hike at 69 it worked for me.
Glad you liked it. It makes my effort worthwhile. It's a good starter rucksack but I was thinking more of a younger person with that remark. Of course it's suitable for older people like you as well as young fellows like me .(I'm not 69 for 3 weeks)🤭😁
I will never buy Timex!!!!
Wise decision 👌
I just got an expedition scout a couple of weeks ago, so far so good but we will see. I guess with watches only time can tell. I love the aesthetics of it and the price. Hope the last one you bought doesn’t break haha😅
I've already had the issue of the control knob catching on either my skin or clothing. Whilst out with friends I pointed out that we were late for our restaurant reservation. They looked at me puzzled and informed me of the time. I noticed the control knob on the watch had popped out, moved the time and stopped the watch. I reset the time and pushed it back in and all was well again. The one thing that as never failed on all three watches is the time keeping. When the hands are going round the time is always correct
This is probably the only video I came across this product. Thanks for that.
I just do the the videos along with my clarkys adventures videos just for fun but it's nice to get a positive comment and know it may have helped someone.
Just got my nag yesterday. A BIG thank you to you.
Lol Jesus, you have to skip a 3 minute intro to get to the meat
True, but had to put something in to relieve the boredom of me talking about a watch.
@@clarkysreviews3649 I apologize, I'm new to the channel. Came here for the watch review. Thankfully, after watching your struggle, I won't purchase another one of these, and deal with the fogginess on this one lol.
For your further information the latest one did catch on my hand/wrist and popped the control button out which stopped the watch until I pushed it back in. So my theory about why the watch was not telling the correct time is probably correct. If I wore it on the other wrist the knob would be facing up my arm and that might solve the problem. Of course it might be that I'm just deformed and the problem's me.
@@clarkysreviews3649 lol, well I think I'll replace it with the Casio Forester, which is basically the same but a more reliable brand. I'll use it til it dies, then dissect it.
Thank you! I search for the perfekt watch for me. I prefear the Scout until i watched your Video. Now i'm struggeling... I have to think and probably i have to watch for another watch
Got one, have to say impressed I paid £36 .bargain.
Proper video, sir
Appreciated
Do you need a windshield as it does not come with one?
It's not too bad as the lift up lid can be used to screen the wind but a screen would help. As with any outside gas burner the cooking time is going to be longer if its not screened when it's windy
That was a very good review .honest and comprehensive. Thank you .think i might get one for my nephew
Glad I could help
Nice review, Clarkyyy
Thanks. Just a new hobby for me.
I am wearing these boots with a thick wool hiking socks. Changed the laces with a stronger and harder ones, similar to Timberland, after the original broke.The most comfortable boots I have
I am searching the review for Eastpak TRANSIT'R 4 S and found your video review and it comes as surprise when I see a Vietnamese airport here (as I am Vietnamese). :D Nice review.
Thanks for the comment. I have an outdoors channel called clarkys adventures where I tell stories around my outdoors activities and that Inspired me to have a go at reviewing things I buy which for me is just having a bit of fun so glad you enjoyed it.
Be prepared to change the top and side handles after one or trip, but it’s not difficult if you get the right tool 😂
How many kilos can it hold?
Great review. Thanks.
Nice to know my effort was appreciated. Thanks.
What kind of gas canisters should we use with it? I just bought one and I don’t have any idea of the canisters to use.
Great video. Look like you're enjoying the cadac. Thinking of getting one myself. Don't do any camping these days because I have a 3 year old, but I'm tired of using the charcoal bbg or a gas bbq grill which takes loads of cleaning. I mainly use a pan on a bbq so I'm thinking this would do nicely.
Thanks for the positive review. I make the videos as a bit of a hobby, but not too professional, just a lighthearted look at whatever I'm doing at the time, so it's nice if it's been of use to someone.
Thanks for this review. It's helped me make up my mind.
Thanks buddy, very informative!
Really great video! only thing i would comment on is the lighting is a bit off some parts of the video and if you do more late maybe take some close up shots :) have a great day!
You are right of course. It was my first attempt at an indoor one and I'm more used to outdoors on my 'clarkys adventures' channel. Tried to rectify the issues on the second Eastpak video with more close ups. It's all a learning process so thanks for the comments.
hi ,could you please tell me the model ?
Very helpful review as I'm looking to get this model myself, good to see it's lasted so many trips
Cheers, was looking for something like this!
Thanks for the review!
Hi Clarky. Could you please tell me the colour of the AT suitcase? :)
