I've had this pack for about a year now. It's by far the best pack I have ever lugged around. It is true that it is not totally waterproof, however, it is a lot more water resistant than other packs I have used. There's very comfortable suspension, even with heavy loads.
I still carry a rain cover, and for added protection, you should put your sleeping bag in a garbage sack (regardless of what pack you use). I mean, you dont have too, but then you won't have to sleep in a dry sack either ;)
