Ultralight Backpack Rain Cover

I was super excited about this inexpensive way to keep my backpack dry during my wet bike commute to work. The first time I used the cover it worked great! The second time, I noticed the sewing attaching one of the buckles was unraveling. At the end of the ride the buckle had detached completely. For the price, I didn't expect this product to last forever but I did expect it to last longer than two uses...UPDATE:After writing my original review the company reached out to me and immediately sent me a replacement. So far I have had no issue with the stitching on the buckles coming undone. I appreciate a company that stands by their product and makes it right when there are issues. I rode to work yesterday in torrential rain and my backpack stayed nice and dry!

My use case: extra waterproofing for my backpack when commuting via motorcycleThe material looks like it will let the water roll off.If it ends up letting small amounts through the material itself I'll just use a waterproofing spray. (I travel highway speeds, so it may not need that for hiking etc. I will update if I end up needing to do this.)I purchased the M 25-35L and it covers my AXO 29101-02-000 Red Commuter Backpack well.The backpack is about 14x19x7.5 inches with my usual usage.Even if I need to pack more stuff the cover size will work as there's extra room left.I think they could use a different stitch for the straps because one of them separated a bit when I tightened it a small amount. (the one I received was just defective, see update below)I decided to use the straps in the length they were originally and it looks fine.Update: It turns out the one I got was defective. Frelaxy sent a new one and it all of the stitches are strong. Great customer service!Second update: (April 21 2019) I've used this more than a few times now while commuting via motorcycle in the rain and it worked very well! It even partially covers the back panel of my backpack, so there wasn't much water at all between my back and the backpack.

I purchased this product a few weeks ago and haven't had a chance to test it until a recent torrential rain storm. The cover is light, but it has a good thickness to it, so I didn't feel like it was very fragile. It was easy to slip on to my bag and the clipped straps held it in place. I thought the cover clips were going to make it difficult for me to use the shoulder straps, but it wasn't a problem with a slight bit of adjustment. After a half mile walk in the downpour, I got to my destination and found that the cover had repelled most water and was not too damp itself (i.e. it was not absorbing water). My bag was totally dry. I don't know how durable this product will be, but I'm happy with it so far.When purchasing the product, I went by the inch measurements, not the "Size" (volume in liters). If I had gone my the size, the cover would have been too small for my bag.

Bought this for my son at college. He already had a backpack that met all his needs, but was getting caught in torrential downpours that threatened his laptop and study materials. This was the perfect solution! He straps this on over his pack and then when he reaches his next class slips it off and puts it in the little carry pouch No dripping backpack and dry laptop. Win!

I’m so happy with this purchase. So much so that I bought another one for my large adventure backpack. I love the buckles and it doesn’t slide around at all. I can throw it on quickly and it packs away nicely. It got this wet just talking a long walk from the parking lot at work to my office (even with an umbrella). My backpack stayed dry. I highly recommend this, especially for public transportation commuters.

So much good in this inexpensive pack cover! It fit my Camelback 22L fully loaded perfectly, the straps were amazing when everyone else’s rain covers were flapping around or blowing off their packs, and it worked well to keep my pack dry (a little moisture was on the inside of the cover, but that’s the norm with any cover). I may even buy one for my Deuter 60L to replace the current one I have from Walmart.

Haven't had a chance to test this in the rain, yet, but the small size fits my backpack perfectly (it's a "bookbag" sized backpack that I carry my work laptop in). I'd been using a kitchen garbage bag to cover my backpack, with no idea these actual cover things even existed! The rain cover fits inside its little carrying pouch, and there's even enough room in the pouch for me to stash one of those emergency rain ponchos, for me. The cover seems pretty sturdy and stretchy, and I love the two clasp fasteners on the inside. Really easy to put on and take off. Fuschia color is very cute, too.

This is a great product. I bought two for my two kids. They just simply fold it and put in their backpack. It is very light and small when it is fold. When it is raining, my two kids just take it out and cover their backpack when they ride their bikes to school. It is perfectly waterproof. My kids are very satisfied with it. Also, their customer service is wonderful. When I ordered it and had a problem, they responded to me immediately and help me went through the problem. This is a great product and great company. I truly like it.
