This is the only Quasar 26 review on here! Thank you

Good comparison, thank you. I own Quasar 26 and very like it. Have had before about 10-12 different EDC backpack 🎒 and now this Quasar is my favorite now for day usage. Nebula is great for weekend trips when you need more space as you mentioned. But nebula has to much space especially for me as EDC backpack. Also side belts are truly annoying for daily use, I had similar backpack but finally sold it.

I recently bought the Nebula for my main work bag, replacing an Osprey Aeode backpack. The nebula fits my work work laptop, notebook, bluetooth speaker, and other daily essentials without any issue. In the wintertime, it will hold extra layers or my winter gear. I work at an airport. If I know there is a possibility I may be stuck at a hotel due to weather , the nebula can be used as an overnight bag, too. Yes, it's too long for me, but everything else about the bag works. Now, I need to find something 20 to 25 liters for going to the park, zoo, personal item, etc. I'm looking at the Patagonia Atomic tote or maybe the refugio.

Great insights! The Nebula really does make a great bag for a weekend trip. We have a Patagonia Atom Tote Pack review and a Refugio 26L vs 32L comparison video on our channel if you are interested. Love the Atom Tote Pack as a smaller daypack and the Refugio 26L is basically the same pack but with a larger main compartment - our main grip with the 26L is that is should have more pockets. But choosing between the two is really about deciding how much packing space you need.

@Backpackies when I was at REI looking at backpacks, one of the employees showed me the refugio 26. I agree. It could use more pockets. That's why I did not choose it for my work bag. Right now, I'm leaning towards the atom. It will fit under an airplane seat and can be used for everyday activities. I just wish everyday carry bags would take a cue from hiking packs and incorporate load lifters more often. Rei is also releasing an updated version on the Ruckpack it, which is the other backpack I'm considering.

I use the Nebula as a baby bag; the fold down laptop sleeve holds changing supplies, main compartment clothes, admin compartment snakes, the outside pouch holds jackets and the water bottle holders hold all the drinks

That's brilliant!

Are the Quasar's daisy chains load-bearing, or just there to hold the bungees?

@Backpackies Ай бұрын

The daisy chains on the Osprey Quasar backpack are primarily designed for attaching lightweight items and securing the bungee cord. They really aren't intended to be load-bearing in the sense of carrying heavy weight since the daisy chains are only held together by some stitching. Hope this helps!

Do they both self stand?

@Backpackies 21 күн бұрын

Good question! Yes, they both can stand on their own as long as you don't pack them to be too front heavy. The Quasar especially likes to tip if the weight of packing on the inside isn't even.
