As you can see the Adventure 2.0 kit comes with a good amount of basic first aid supplies. The supplies are well organized and labeled. The scissors, The pouch is big enough that I was able to add QuikClot and tapeless bandage gauze's and still have a little more room for other items.
As you can see by the picture above, the Adventure 2.0 kit fits neatly in my 5.11 Covrt ZAP bag along with an iPad and a paperback book. You could easily place this kit under the seat of your vehicle, under the seat of your motorcycle etc.

Things I Like:

Complexity: This kit comes with everything but the kitchen sink for my first aid needs.
Bag: I like that they built the bag a little oversized so you could add stuff if you choose to.
Documents: I like that they included documents for instructions on using some of the items and it helped with labeling.
Value: It was under $20 bucks shipped as I mentioned earlier. For what you get, I feel this is an outstanding deal.
Things I Disliked:
None... This first aid kit is awesome. I haven't found one thing I dislike about it. I would give this first aid kit a 10/10.
