I held off on buying this kit for a while because it's more expensive than many kits with similar contents, but finally purchased it when there was a lightning deal. After examining it, it's worth it and would have been even without the sale. It's an excellent bag-- the labeled compartments are fantastic and just what you want in an emergency. Thinking and judgement are notoriously poor in emergencies and the careful labeling should really help. Anyone who is serious about their first aid will end up customising their kit and adding supplies anyway --I recommend getting this kit because the capacious pockets and clear divisions are the perfect home for those superior supplies.

Outstanding! This kit is head and shoulders above any other kit I have ever seen. The design and build quality are excellent. Because of how well they have organized and labeled everything, one can open the kit and in a glance know exactly what you have as opposed to a kit simply full of supplies. Each item has a designated place with a label. Items are easy to find, easy to access and easy to inventory. I am grateful for the intentionality that has gone into designing and building this first aid kit. I highly recommend it!

I read about this The Survival Team kit in Traverse magazine, a famous Australian international motorcycle travel magazine. I needed a powerful emergency first aid kit for domestic and international travel that would contain everything I might need but in a compact and easy to carry manner. I went various stores here in the US and nothing was available here that looked as good and substantial as the kit from The Survival Team. I wrote to them, hoping for an answer in maybe a week or so and Vicky responded almost immediately (given the 16hr time change, I do not want to even think about what time it was in Australia). Well I ordered it from Amazon and it was even better, more substantial and robust than I was expecting. The Kit has everything you need except wound cleaning alcohol and obviously medicines like Tylenol or Advil. The kit is great, perfect size, has everything I need and it comes in a easy to carry case. Plus there are various instructions included with it. A great product and I am a happy customer. Thanks Survival Team and thanks for your help Vicky!

As a medic I'm going to give a run down, and review of this kit made by survival. First off before anyone says anything I purchased this with my own hard earned overtime money while it was on sale $75 normally its $100 and currently its $120.

-1★ reason ~ the reason I knocked 1 star off the review is because of the faulty zipper string (minor, but quality control issue as this is the most expensive kit out there in its class to my knowledge.) Also the company refuses to listen to the large amounts of people asking for a plain bag version on Amazon, and the primary survival website. This is a good kit with good items, but for people in health care who know exactly what they need and what they like in their Ebag we hate buying stuff we know we don't need. No tourniquet simply a key feature all med kits should have these days in case of major trauma super easy to use and saves more life's today than anything else.

4★ reason ~ these are quality bags alone that says something because most on the market are either tiny with no space, but high quality or large with poor organizational systems and poor quality. This bag has great organization which is key in emergency situations as you need to know where specific things are fast but you also need to know your kit like the back of your hand! If you ever become the patient you want someone to be able to find the life saving gear you have in your bag.

Key features this bag has that really make it shine.
"¢ Burn gel (not many kits have this, but would be nice to have a burn dressing to use along side with it)
"¢ Fabric bandaids that actually stick pretty well. (not 1st rate but a close 2nd)
"¢ first aid handbook (its English doesn't refer to things in American names for certain items but understandable and agrees with my training for the most part)
"¢ paper based medical tape (also has some stick)
"¢ saline solution in multi tubes (indispensable in some situations)
"¢ temp gauges (not too sure on the quality but if they work extremely useful)

Things that I think were average to subpar.
"¢ trauma shears nothing special better than nothing.
"¢ the huge tweezers not the best for splinters or other small objects but would work for field surgery.
"¢ CPR mask (huge pet peeve I hate the thin ones that act as plastic barriers the seal is terrible when you can get one) definitely upgrading.
"¢ Steri strips 9 is not enough for a kit like this.

Things to add or upgrade
"¢ I would have put quickclot in this kit and intend to
"¢ burn dressing.
"¢ dedicated pocket mask with most common size opa's.
"¢ antiseptic wipes, alcohol, peroxide, iodine.
"¢ tourniquet.
"¢ occlusive sheet for sucking chest wounds.
"¢ off the shelf meds benadryl, advil, Tylenol, aspirin (understand why they don't have it in the kit though)
"¢ blood glucose test, and glucose.

It is good for what you get but could use a bit more band-aids. Sure it is not up there with the more dedicated kits from Adventure Medical, or Wilderness Medical. It is simple kit that covers the basics, and could easily be used as a starting point for a medical kit. It is portable enough to be used as a car kit and is pretty easy to use format in labelled areas.

Think it is a bit lacking for the price, but if you are not worried about cost and want the basics covered this would do most of it. The components are in the mid range for quality, I have seen better versions of the materials in this kit. It does cover enough if you have some knowledge to get you thru an emergency. Would add more bandages and a Mylar blanket to the kit.
