I don't want to speak badly about products from Militaria.pl, but the kit presented here poses a potential threat to the user's health and life – for 2,999 PLN you get a backpack whose construction is not suitable for longer hikes (for about 1,000 PLN you can find a really solid mountain or military backpack, with which you can travel comfortably without worrying about back pain). With the remaining money, it's worth buying a complete set of essential food and hygiene items, such as water, paper, wet wipes, pads, tampons, energy bars, or canned goods, even for just 100 PLN. The items in this kit are bestseller products that in practice may turn out to be completely useless during a longer stay outdoors. For this price, you can assemble your own premium-quality equipment and still have enough left for a waterproof backpack cover, a tent (e.g., a solid winter two-person tent can be bought for about 700 PLN), a sleeping mat, and a better sleeping bag – the sleeping bag and mat included in the kit may cause hypothermia risk. Anyone who decides on this kit, I recommend buying a separate folding sleeping mat and a proper winter sleeping bag so you can safely endure the night outdoors without a campfire or heating. The most important items are a knife, firestarter, and carbon filter for water. If you're planning a long hike, it's best to have just a Victorinox SD pocket knife, water filter, bottle, food, basic vitamins and medicines with you (anti-inflammatory, antibiotics, throat lozenges – that's really important). Good shoes are more important than most of the things in this kit, and at night a warm hat can save your life. Watching a short film with advice from experienced soldiers or survivalists can help save money and really prepare better and take care of your own safety. It's definitely safer than relying on the kit presented here. I don't want to discourage anyone, but in my opinion, this kit could quickly prove insufficient in the field. Best regards, and I hope none of us will ever have to use this kit in a real emergency.

The backpack comes with solid equipment, although a few elements are still missing. Assembling a set with richer equipment on your own is possible for about 1000 PLN cheaper. However, for people who don't want to collect everything themselves and have a bigger budget, this is a very good option.

I've been using this kit for a long time, sometimes while camping. Overall, it's a pretty decent product, but I have a few comments: 1. The sleeping bag doesn’t provide enough warmth – thermal comfort is only about 15 degrees, so it's suitable only for really warm days. In case you need to use it in winter, the sleeping bag itself won’t effectively protect against the cold. On the plus side, there is an emergency sleeping bag with thermal foil, which can help survive chilly nights. 2. The kit lacks a sleeping mat or any ground insulation, which, combined with the weak sleeping bag, makes it much harder to stay outside in winter. 3. The phone included in the kit looks very cheap and works even worse, but the other electronic devices function properly. 4. There is no proper firestarter – the one hidden in the bracelet is inconvenient to use. To start a fire, there are long-burning matches and an electric lighter included (handy, but lights only dry paper), but a good firestarter would be welcome. 5. The first aid kit has very basic contents. It's easy to supplement it with minimal cost, but the container itself is impractical – limited access, it only opens partially and has just one compartment, which makes efficient use difficult. 6. The backpack and the module pouches themselves are solidly made. The downside is the lack of a good waist belt and the use of Velcro on the front instead of a molle system (you can buy a separate panel for that).

Inside you'll find everything you need in a crisis: a first aid kit, rescue tools, flashlight, and thermal blankets. It's made of high-quality materials, which ensures durability and reliability. An additional advantage is its practicality and ease of transport – you can take the kit anywhere: on a trip, for an excursion, or always have it on hand in the car. Help Bag Max gives you a sense of security and peace of mind in any situation.

I bought the kit with my wife in mind because I didn’t want to put one together myself from scratch. It has very good equipment and a logical modular layout. There’s still plenty of space in the backpack for extra clothing, like spare clothes. The modules are designed so that you can access them easily and quickly. The package in which the kit arrived was large, sturdy, and practical. The huge number of items is impressive. I believe this product is worth buying and then supplementing according to your own needs. In my opinion, it works excellently as an expedition base.

A well-designed and solidly made backpack. I highly recommend it to everyone. I personally bought one fully equipped and another empty to customize it for my own needs.

This is a good option for people who want to buy a ready-made survival backpack. Although you'll need to make small adjustments to suit your needs, the set is comprehensive and logically divided into sections. I wholeheartedly recommend it.
