It may seem they lean to the expensive side. However, I can't find anything else like them. As a police officer I carry one of their kits on duty. At home I have one in each vehicle. They're well packed, bags are excellent and contain what you need in an emergency. I could purchase all the items in one of these kits, and a bag. But by the time I did all that it wouldn't fit together as seemlessly and would likely cost in the same ball park. Would've been 5 stars but their shipping options are limited and are quite expensive for shipping to Canada. If that could be remedied it would be great. Would make these kits a lot more affordable up here.
