Carried a heavy load very well, sturdy construction, bomber zips, very water-resistant, etc. My only complaint is the shoulder straps, they would twist and cut into my shoulders. Still occurred after countless adjustments. I'm convinced the problem is in how Arcteryx sews the webbing to the strap. I returned mine and adopted a more minimalist mentality. I'm going to give the Altra a shot.
