Once its rolled up and on your pack, will a rainstorm get in the ends and destroy all the paper wrapped bandages since the pockets are just mesh?

That I cannot answer but best advice in any weather pack your supplies in ziplock bags for full protection. I purchased this item as a gift.

The material of the bag is water resistant. I take mine out in the rain all the time. Never had a problem with my items getting wet. It's not waterproof. So if it ends up submerged in water your stuff will likely end up wet. But it can definitely withstand some heavy splashing. Just remember to keep the zipper closed!

I'm not really sure, but I think a light sprinkle might not cause a problem. It has a zipper, which might let in some water. If I were taking it somewhere and it was raining, I'd put it in my waterproof backpack. But that's just me.

I only got caught in the rain once. I put the battery pack inside my messenger bag and had the light on my basket. No problems. Dried it off when I got home.

It was not that heavy and rolls up into a small pouch. It is not waterproof. I think you can get away with it for backpacking, but the rain???

No, but it is extremely resistant, so it might as well be. If you leave it in the rain or are in a torrential downpour you are obviously SOL, but for light to mild rain it is great. Overall I would highly recommend this pack, especially if you are the type of person that packs a rifle or axe around all the time and\or needs to tie additional gear to the pack.

The bag kept my items dry in a day long light drizzle but I have yet to be caught in a down pour. The outer most pocket does have a vinyl layer inside the pouch. However, the zippers do not have a cover flap over the zipper so I would probably list this as water resistant rather than water proof. The pack did adjust & carry well and I am 100% pleased with it thus far. Hope this helps.

I have used mine in rain and splashing waves while canoeing. Properly rolled (read fully) and snaped, you will be fine in those conditions (on Zodiac excursions, kayaking, etc.). If you are talking about fully submerging the bag while you wade or swim across a river, I can't help you. If inside a ziplock snd then inside this dry sack, probably.

The inner tent is all mesh as you see in the photo. I have not had the tent in an extreme rainfall yet, but it has worked well in moderate rainfalls. However I did seam seal the entire "flat area" on the top of the tent. This "flat area" is my only concern with this tent. But the seam seal did appear to work. In addition I always spray all my tent flys with Camp Dry or similar product.

Mine has done fine in several light to moderate rains. Experience has taught me to always pack a cheap tarp in case the weather turns unexpectedly nasty, but I've not had to use it with this tent so far.

It should withstand a short time in the rain. The outer fabric is some sort of plastic weave and there's probably some structural cardboard in between that and the inner padding. I doubt the rain would make it much past the outer layer very quickly. The weak point is the zipper since it's not a waterproof or even water-resistant design, which significantly reduces the amount of time it's likely to protect its contents. Personally, I'd consider it acceptable for emergency light water protection, but not much more than that.

I used mine in a pouring rainstorm about a year ago and it did really well. There were only a few small drops of water along one edge; none of my belongings got soaked. I was satisfied with it. I was with a lot of people and many of their tents didn't fair nearly as well.

Yes. They stuff back into built in pockets too. I've only used it a couple times so far but it seems to a good "lightweight" tarp. It survived a nasty storm first time we used it.

If you are using the Coleman Sundome tent, you wont have to worry about the floor because its s plastic type floor almost like a tarp. Trust me on thst cause I was in a "monsoon" my first trip out and with high winds and my tent stayed bone dry. Still, put a tarp under it. As far as the seams, there is a rainfly which protects but if you are really concerned, get a larger tarp and use that like I did for an extra rainfly. Supposedly, though, this tent wont need it but all my friends were getting tarps for their tents and told me to do the same so I did. If you still wish to seal the seams, i would contact the Coleman company directly and ask. Putting snything on it might interfere with what is already in the material.

No it does not. It has a cover for the bag itself for rainy days. I'm not sure about the laptop and tablet sleeves with this pack.

I tried putting it in the tent & the zipper broke & I had to exchange the tent. The pad doesnt fit inside & doesnt seem to be designed to fit inside the tent. I read other reviews that said heavy rain will flow water down the tent & undernieth. The Pad cover seems moderetly water-resistant but to avoid getting the foam wet Im putting a rain tarp over the whole set-up when I go camping. I think the inadequate coverage of the Quick Tent`s rainfly over the cot/pad is what makes it so cheap. I dont mind since I plan on sleeping in it w/out the rainfly under a raintarp this Summer. Hope this helps

Rain will leak from the seams. We had a heavy rainstorm outside, and a small one inside.
