Reasonable Bear Vault
duckydavis100163831: 
Like most bear vaults, this one worked just fine in the high country. But like most bear vaults, it doesn't fit very well in a backpack. Someone ought to design a vault that packs well inside or even outside a modern backpack. My only major gripe with this product is that it's very difficult to open without a metal lever of some sort--a spork works fine, for instance. Very tough on the fingers to open without that lever. But considering most vaults also require a metal tool to open, I guess this is wash in the long run.
certified in west

Maybe Adirondack bears are smarter than ours here in the west, but this canister has been tested and certified against both black bears (by SIBBG, Sierra Interagency Black Bear Group) & grizzleys (by IGBG) for use in Yosemite, Sequoia & Kings Canyon Nat'l Parks, for the Ansel Adams and John Muir Wilderness Areas, & the Inyo National Forest. Sooooo-go for it!!
Not good
mike.faugh621390: 
The looking mechanism quit working on mine. Spins off easily without engaging the lock. Maybe it broke somehow, i dunno, but if it can break easily enough that I didn't notice when it happened then how well is it going to stand up to a bear, eh? I wish I had not wasted the money on this thing.
