Ashley says they are good. He's just given his little brother one that he's had for years. Talk to Endicott's in Exeter as they sell them and Kevin always spoke highly of them.

I've got the forces 44 and I've used it for about the past 2 years and have no problems, maybe not the most comfortable or robust, but good value for money I think.

I have the forces 44 and the 66 and agree with luresalive great value for money.
I got rid of a karrimor s75 and kept the forces 66 ,just a better size for me.

I have a Proforce (Highlander) 33 litre pack which is wearing well. Great value at about 24.00

There is a review on the main site for the proforce 40ishL, do a search for pro force and ye'll find it.
I had a good look at Ashleys last time I was in the woods, and I'm waiting to get paid to get one :D The built in rain cover is a nice touch.

Just bought a mountain life (from mountain warehouse) High 50, which is a good contender for the forces 44 area, on sale now for 29.99 reduced from 42.99. Seems to have pretty much the same features, except the built in rain cover. Fits very well too. Worth a look.
