So I have a funny story that displays this pack's quality. A buddy and I took a long break in a beautiful meadow before the last 4 miles of a multi-day trek. After downing a couple bottles of trail wine (takes the edge off), I didn't have the best judgement of where to cross a stream on the trail on the hike out. Long story short, I picked a bad spot and ended up totally submerged for a couple seconds with my Bora on. The thing kept my gear (including $1,500+ of camera equipment) bone dry. That alone sold me on Arcteryx pack quality. I'd definately buy it again.
