Excellent pack. I used it all summer and never had a hitch. It is in as good a condition as when I bought it. Even though it is a woman's pack - it has fit me great. Very tight on my back for climbing and balance. I have sown on a bottle holder and it could use some of the fancy extras but all the zippers still work, braces are still firm and it was pretty well used when I got it.

I love that the Amelia was created for women. After trying on countless packs that fit oddly and uncomfortably, i came home to my Amelia. I love the Vector idea, I think the Vector Ice is the best thing ever created, makes lugging sharp objects much safer! My only real problem is how the stays near the head stick out. I had them bent back quite a bit.. however they still touch my helmet making belaying with the pack and helmet on a bit of a challenge as it pushes the helmet up, and then over my eyes. When purchasing, have the stays bent by experts as they have all the tricks of the trade down. Really have them pay particular attention to the head stays, especially if you plan on wearing a helmet with the pack.

Customer Service

Thankfully i've yet to need to contact them.

I own a Dana Design - Bridger and a Bombpack.

Tried on Gregory Denali Pro, Dana Designs Astraplane, to name but a few.

The Amelia has a good fit, I love the slim design, especially when you're bushwacking. I picked this pack up on sale for 30% off, so it was a great deal for me. The zipper are the beefy ykk #10's I believe, so no worries there. Only one thing... I wish it had a separate sleeping bag compartment like the Highlander does. Otherwise, very solid, great deal if you get it on sale like me.

I love my Amelia Osprey! Great fit, good weight distribution and wonderful accessories! Check out the double pockets and the chair - both can be carried easily without adding much weight or bulk. I would highly recommend this pack.
