Mountain Leader First Aid Kit

Great for travelling. Compact but with all the essentials. Good quality and value too.

This is a really well put together kit. I had actually recently purchased another kit from a major brand which was £10 more expensive with less contents and not as well or neartly organised. One of the reasons I returned that kit and bought this one was because with the other brand everything expired within less than two years (and one item in just a few months!). So the expiry dates were of concern when I purchased this and I'm pleased to report everything was September 2029 dated (you'd expect most kits to last 3-5 years). I think the only thing missing from this kit is a chemical icepack, but one can add this in separately as there's enough room. One thing to note is that while the pictures show paracetomol and iburphen, the kit does not include them. I think if you buy this kit direct from the manufacturer, it does include them and also some syringes, so I presume they've all been removed due to Amazon restrictions. The lesson here is to always read the actual product description (I did, and was aware of the mismatch with the photos). Again, these are very easy to add if you need them. All in all, I think this is an excellent kit.

The bag itself is great, well laid out, lots of velcro flap closure pockets with labels for organising so accurately and easily finding what you need without rummaging through things is simple for anyone - recommend familiarising yourself with what is stored where and perhaps adding and rearranging things slightly to suit you better. Contents overall is OK - as others have mentioned, there were items missing from mine according to the contents list which is a bit of a kick in the shins considering it's not a cheap kit, BUT, I seem to have gotten a foil or mylar blanket or sheet folded up in a bag of its own in my pack, I haven't checked precisely what it is yet (which is not shown in the images or listed in the contents)... you'd expect a bit more care to be taken with packing a medical kit. However, I will still be keeping it, as mentioned above, the bag is good, and most of the listed contents were present. I have replaced the missing items myself (no big deal), and added a number of other things on top as well... Now it's just refill/replace and adjust as time passes. Had to drop a star off due to the few missing items and also being slightly more expensive than it should be I think. If it had come 100% correct & complete it'd be closer to being worth the cost... but if it had come 100% correct & complete, AND cost £45 without being on offer, I think that would have been perfect, and absolutely 100% worth every penny of the price. That said, I still bought one, and I'm keeping it despite the missing/random unlisted items... make of that what you will.

Excellent and well equipped first aid bag. I bought one for the car, and one for the house. Not cheap of course, but who wants cheap first aid! It needs to work, right?, this pack delivers. Like I said, it’s excellent.

Very good comprehensive kit

A good first aid kit, it covers a lot of potential injuries, I'd always recommend customising a first aid kit for your own needs but this is one of the best premade/starting points kits I have seen for a while

Haven't had chance yet to use this fully, but on inspection is seems very well put together. Tough outer material, a pretty decent range of supplies, overall a good buy for the price. Why cheap out of something as important as your health?

This is a replacement for an old kit that has now fallen apart. The contents of the kit are great but I am not enamoured with the new bag material (it doesn’t feel as robust) and the slight change in the layout will need getting used to.
