SUBSTANDARD CANISTER

i purchased this item thinking that i was protected from bears gaining access to my food. it was a false sense of security as i discovered in my recnt trip to the adirondack high peak region on 8/20/08. the bears easily opened the canister and ate all our food on the first night of a planned four day trip. we contacted bear vault and had a less than useless conversation with them about the poor performance of their product. if you want to keep your food safe, DO NOT BUY THIS CANISTER. IT WILL RUIN YOUR TRIP IF YOU ARE IN BEAR COUNTRY!
