Just recieved my new 2200. Man this thing is sweet! Should come with directions though. So many pockets and buckles.LOL

Mine broke the first buckle on the first scouting trip. The second broke on the second trip. I was very disappointed with the quality
 
I sure enjoy my badlands pack. Helped me pack out a lot of meat this year

Watch your top knot
 
Does seem to be a problem with zippers on some of their production runs. Three years with my hypervent and one with the sacrifice with no problems.
 
I have never broken a zipper or a buckle and mine have seen a LOT of use. I figured that mine have hauled somewhere around 10 deer and 4 elk. No problems to report.
 
I replaced all my pulls with parachutte cord. Cuts some weight and prevent failures. My only complaint on the 2200 is the belt made for big people. If you have under a 34" waiste move on. If they would make the belt fit, a normal bladder pocket, and real belt pockets the 2200 would be the ultimate day pack. With all the sales it is a good value!
 
LAST EDITED ON Nov-29-12 AT 11:30AM (MST)[p]I do have to agree about the Belt being a tad large for a waist smaller than the 34 mentioned. I used this Pack this past season and had no problems with it or the Zippers at all. This is my 3rd Badlands pack and I am satisfied with it. I personally like the water bladder pocket placement and the ability to get to your items through the back acess area is very handy.
