This particular kit also came with a LifeStraw Go
Lifestraw Go Emergency Water Bottle Filter
There is plenty of room left in the packs to add your own supplies as well. Great for beef jerky, or especially if you dehydrate your own meats and fruits, you can have long-lasting food sources to add as well. There is also room for added First Aid
The backpacks are durable, and with the ability to just grab and go, are a great way to go for those wanting a bit of security, without all the extra cost. The prepackaged food and water are stable in the right conditions up to five years. Couple of suggestions might be to find a nice large water-resistant storage container
While I was provided with this for review, I can assure you, that as a Paramedic, I would not recommend anything I wouldn’t use myself, and I can truly say that this will be part of our home emergency kit for years to come. This would also make an excellent gift idea for Father’s Day coming up!

This is a pretty comprehensive emergency kit. I really need one like it!
I am working on putting this together, especially after those tornadoes that ripped through our state last week.
It is a good idea to be prepared. You never know when you will need something like this.
Great review. This emergency kit is spot on!
I agree that a portable cooking solution would be a big plus.
Living in Southern California we really need an earthquake kit!
nice
Ahhh. My favorite thing. One word answers. Wouldn’t be a good day without a “one” word answer. ~Tom
I really like this! Such a good review!! Sounds awesome!
Seems like this would be a great kit to have around in case of an emergency.
Thank you for the information. We should always be ready for anything.
This kit looks very useful. Thanks for sharing!
This disaster preparedness kit is great. Thinking about New Orleans you never know what wikk happen. Being prepared would save you from having to search for things you might not be able to find.
I love that it has so many items that you need (especially the water filter!), but I do wish it was more affordable. I understand why it’s not, but for those of us on a tight budget, it makes more sense to create our own packs and by the items as we can afford them.
everyone needs one of these in their house and in their cars
I agree Sherry, everyone should have something in case of an emergency! Have a great day! ~Tom
This would be perfect to have on hand in our Hurricane Preparedness Kit!
This looks a really good survival kit to have, especially since if there was a severe storm (or tornado, hurricane, or earthquake) it could be several days before power is restored. Thanks for posting your review!
Thank you Susan, I appreciate the comment, definitely share this with others if you think it was awesome! ~Tom
This looks a really good survival kit to have, especially since if there was a severe storm (or tornado, hurricane, or earthquake) it could be several days before power is restored. Thanks for posting your review!
This is a great review, it has inspired me to get a kit so we will be prepared!
That is awesome, it is always good to be prepared! Thanks for being here. ~Tom
This is the survival kit to buy. Families should all have one. You never know in these times we live in.
AWESOME REVIEW…I AGREE…A LITTLE COSTLY…BUT GREAT! THANKS!
It is, but there are other kits they have that you can start off with. Thanks for your comment, have a great day! ~Tom
I bought one of these after reading your post and I am glad I did I feel like I am more prepared now!! Thanks Tom!!
Thanks Sally! I think you will enjoy it. Have a great day! ~Tom
This is great info. I think it’s so important to be prepared. I live in NJ and was stuck with no power during Hurricane Sandy and we were in an area that got hit pretty bad. The stores didn’t have enough food, flashlights, first aid supplies, etc. So I think this is a wonderful idea. You never know what is going to happen.
Nice emergency kit. I need to get one for our family
This looks great you can never be too prepared..I don’t even own a first aid kit..Time to look into one.
I would like to thank you for getting us ready just in case a disaster really did happen. It’s something we all need to be ready for.
I think everyone should have a emergency kit around their house, just in case something does happen,
This is great to keep around the have. Thank you
I think this would be come in handy in case of an emergency.
I think this great and everyone needs it. But what about families with more than 4 people I have 4 children and my husband. Do you also have ones for bigger families.
Looks like a very nice emergency kit; shame it couldn’t be sold at a lower price.
It can be costly, but I think it is just a fair deal. Thanks for your comment. ~Tom
I was wondering, I’ve watched a few survival shows such as “Naked & Afraid” & always wondered if one of those Life Straws or something similar would give someone a better chance of surviving sicknesses from water they came upon, knowing that there may not be any more water such as if it were nightfall& someone needed to stay put to make a shelter. Drinking any water would be dangerous to your health but since water is extremely essential to survival it would be a lot off your mind if you didn’t need to worry about it This kit seems to have a lot of great items in it for common emergencies.
Thank you, much needed information.
awesome review – something everyone should have – love it
What a comprehensive kit for emergencies. I have a very small first aid kit, but whenever I go to use it, someone has already stole all the bandaids. This one is so nice. It could really offer help to almost any emergency.
Tom Thanks for the great review . This is a really handy and important thing to have surviving several hurricanes we could have used this thanks
This is great info to have. Thank you
I have bits and pieces of emergency stuff, but nothing like having it all in one easy to grab bag like this.
Something everyone needs to be prepared. Like the idea of it being in a backpack & easy to grab/find when needed
I’d love to have packs like those, just don’t have any money and I wouldn’t be able to talk my dad into getting some. Its odd that some people could think of things like this as a waste of money cuz you might never use em. Bet it was fun getting the supplies and packing em all up, it reminds me of going back to school shopping kind of, lol.
This sounds like something I should buy for the house
That’s a nice kit.
Nice bag with many items you would need. We don’t think of these things till we need them. Having it ready would save more lives.
Always great to have an Emergency Kit in your car & at home!
Looks like a very good first aide kit.Has almost everything possible you could need!
will come in handy if i ever get lost,or have to wait on FEMA…I would get this..thanks
I live in Vermont where the weather is never what the weather report claims. Because of that reason, this review definitely puts things into perspective on what I should definitely carry in my car for in case of emergencies. THANK YOU for sharing this info with all of us. I’m sure, like myself, everyone who reads it will be a little wiser on what they should keep in their vehicle for emergencies.
This would be a great idea for everyone. Keep it in the car when you are out in case there is a bad storm tornado, whatever you have extra stuff on hand.
This kit is awesome for Fathers Day Gift for my son. He just went through the floods in TX. I live in California I need one for Earthquake preparedness! A great gift idea for anyone!
I needed a good guide review on an emergency bag. Thank you and I will take your words into great consideration when looking for one like this.
This would be nice to keep in your car.
I really enjoyed reading this post! It’s getting to be that time here in Florida to be storm and disaster ready. There was a lot of information in this post that was very useful and helpful to me. Thank you so much for sharing this!
Thank you Pamela, for taking time to leave a wonderful comment. Be sure to share my site with others! Thank you.
Great information. Everyone should be prepared for an emergency, but few people actually are.
Having this on hand is a super idea! They don’t make rations, anything like they used to, either! “Sometimes, some of the stuff is better than a; “Sister-in-law’s” homemade cooking!! LOL!
I’m thinking about, holiday family packs, for gift giving…either emergency in car, or home..? Unsure.?
Thank,
Sassi
It is always a great idea to have a emergency kit in the car and in the home, especially for a family disaster when you live in areas that are known to have tornados, hurricanes, and other disasters that can happen. It is also great to have a family plan and escape in case something happens. These kits are great!
My family truly needs to get an emergency kit like this one.
This is a great review. I would love to have this. Thank you for sharing this.
We should really get something like this for our house. You never know when you will need it!
This post reminds me that we do not have any first aid kit at home. I need to get one ASAP. Thanks for this info.
I was just talking the other day with a friend and we were discussing this exact thing. We were going over (off the top of our heads) the things we thought would be best to have in an emergency kit. I’m going to share this review with my friend and get started on getting a kit together. Thanks for the informative review.
This does look like a terrific kit. I do like the idea of the Dattrex Emergency Water Packets.
In this day and time we all need to be prepared in case of a disaster and this certainly would come in handy! Thanks for the review!
This is great. I think it is important to have a kit in every home — regardless of geographic location — you just never know what could happen. I also think it is important to have a similar but smaller kit in your car.
Thanks for another great review. The emergency kits seem to have most everything you would need to survive for 3 – 5 days, depending on family size. I do like the emergency survival kits that are packed into a backpack in case the emergency requires you to be mobile and then you don’t need to waste time packing everything before you can leave your house. I also like that the food and water will last for 5 years, and that they have such a thorough first aid kit. The fact that you are or were a licensed paramedic makes me feel even better about the first aid supplies.
Hi Deborah, thanks for the wonderful comment. Appreciate it so much. Have a great day! ~Tom
This is a very helpful review, Tom! Living in California, I’ve long practiced disaster preparedness for earthquakes and wildfires. Your review reminded me that I’ve run low on supplies, and these kits sound fantastic. I shall definitely look into buying one.
Thank you Debra, I do appreciate your comments. Have a great day! ~Tom
Yes, yes, and yes. Super review. And OMG, it’s so necessary! I live in NYC and cannot get 9/11 out of my mind. Call me paranoid (or maybe realistic), but it’s only a matter of time before we get hit again. I agree with you about the axe. And I’d toss in all our prescription meds (and more OTC ones), being sure to rotate the stock as some do with food storage. And Mark made an interesting point about the color – do you want to be rescued, or travel unnoticed? Interesting question. Might be good to have one in red/orange, and one in camo. (and being in NYC, besides the axe you mentioned, I’d be sure to have some personal protection gear. Sad, but true.) Toss in some diapers for the little ones, and ladies, let’s not forget some monthly supplies. Both pads & tampons have other uses in an emergency. Whew, ok, off my soapbox. Thanks, Tom!
Those are all great items to have in there Sandy, no problems, Love your comment! Keep them up! and do share with others, thanks. ~Tom
This would be so awesome to have! I actually have nothing at all prepared for an emergency or disaster. Thank you for sharing.
My pleasure. Not a bad idea to have something. I would rather be ready and not need it, than not ready and need everything!
This is such a great site! I love all the products and information!
I appreciate that Kristen, I truly hope you become more active with the site. Be sure to share with others! ~Tom
This is such an awesome and vital kit to any family to have! I love that it contains supplies for four days but also waterproof matches. I’d have never thought of those but so important. Thank-you for the information & review. 🙂
Thanks so much for the comment Natalie! Have a great day, and be sure to keep stopping back, check out the rest of my site everyone! ~Tom
This is a great review and very simple!
This kit sounds great! I think it is always nice to have the peace of mind to know you could help your family survive even during a natural disaster!
I really love your idea to use this as part of a Fathers Day gift – it is much more useful than the old standby of another tie.
True. I will be doing a quick fathers day gift guide here in the next few days! ~Tom
Thanks for this review, this sounds like an infinitely useful product to have out here in earthquake country.
It would be Candice, thanks for your comment, have a great day! ~Tom
P.S. Be sure to share this page with others!
Great review! This looks like a must have kit to have in any situation, but especially for hiking, camping, and traveling around the country.
I think it is Marcy, and with the ability to add more stuff, essentials that you might need are only a grab away. Have a great day! ~Tom
This is definitely something every family should have to grab and go! Living near NYC, we have had some scary moments in the past few decades and even though it’s not something we like to think about, it’s always good to be prepared. I’m glad I read this, it gives me a few more good things to stash in my bag!
I am glad you had a chance to read it Lissa, be sure to share with others, thanks for being here! ~Tom
Thank you for bringing to everyone’s attention the importance of having a Premium Disaster Preparedness Kit.
This is a great review, I believe we all should have this in our homes for whatever disaster we may find ourselves in. With all the floods, hurricanes, tornadoes and so on you never no when you might need this! Thanks for the info.
Thank you Dana, you are correct. Water might be contaminated, things like this can always help. Thanks, and have a great day!
I have often thought how I should have one of these available and ready to use. You just don’t know when the time will come you will need it. Thanks for the ideas.
This looks like a terrific kit. Would be a great idea to have one on hand just in case.
Every family should have a disaster kit.
This looks like a great kit to keep handy! Thanks!
This would be great to have, I have a family of five and we don’t have anything like this yet. We will be investing in one though.
Thank you for this review. I think it would be a very good idea that every family should have a disaster emergency kit.
a very nice blog
This would be a great way to make sure my family is prepared in case of a disaster.
This would be a great way to make sure my family is prepared in case of a disaster.
It’s so easy to say…”Oh, nothing bad will ever happen.” However…it very well could. Being prepared is key to survival.
What a great kit! I really need to upgrade my own too! I’m really liking this one, especially the LifeStraw Go.
Always looking for zombie survival equipment.
Its always better to be prepared for anything.
This is a great review and I appreciate it that you, a paramedic, reviewed this product. I already have a n emergency kit, but This one is better.
Thank you Jo-Ann, I do appreciate it, have a wonderful day! ~Tom
That’s a lot of stuff.
Yes it is. Candid response, but I guess it still counts. I love people who really leave thoughtful answers like yours. Makes my day. Not! ~Tom
I think this is an awesome first aid kit. Its cool how its Easley portable great for hacking 🙂
I believe that you did a great job with the review. I also think that toiletries should be included, but I didn’t see a survival book. Was there one? I mean like how to start fires, what plants to watch out for, maybe radio with batteries or something of the sort.
There was a short book on basic first aid. But you are right, something like that would be awesome. But those are things you can add later…lots of room! ~Tom
I’ve been telling my family for years that we need to prepare, we live in California, for Petes sake! This looks like a great option…thank you & congrats. (-:
This was such a good review! The fact that it’s a backpack makes it so easy and convenient to have on hand.
Thanks Justin, thanks for stopping by. Have a good day!
All of theses items are great ideas. Thank you for the informative reviews.
You just never know, and really who has any of this? It would make me feel safer and more secure if I had it.
Very true. I do! Thanks for stopping by Ellen, have a great day! ~Tom
Great review! Definitely reminds me that I need to get on top of things and be more prepared than I am now for things that could come up. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for taking time to look at it! Be sure to share it with others! ~Tom
Thank you for the review. I think everyone needs one of these.
Great review! Everyone should have one in their home.
Thank you for your review. More often than not, people have the “it won’t happen to me” saying. You really just never know!! This kit has it all. I would probably add sunscreen and bug wipes. Living in South Ga, the bugs and sun can be one of your worse enemies.
Those would be great additions Anne, and it has plenty of room for more! 🙂
We really need to have a disaster kit in our home and car!
Thank you for this review! I really like that you showed photos of everything in the kit so a buyer can see what they are really getting! I’m a nurse and believe that everyone should have some kind of emergency preparedness plan. This kit would be a HUGE help in that department, and it’s conveniently packaged and very reasonably priced, too! Thanks for the great review, Tom! Have a great day!
This is a really brilliant way to be prepared for anything!
Great review, I love all the pictures you showed of the product and description of every thing here, I know for me and my family , this definitely would come in handy , we camp pretty much the whole summer, so this would definitely be of use..
Hi Dorothy,
Thanks so much. Have a great day, thanks for stopping by. ~Tom
i love the bag and wish i could afford it
Well, I think I should take advice from a Medic about preparedness for sure! Thanks David.
I am Tom. But thanks for stopping by. Have a great day.
I love the fact that you, a paramedic, reviewed this emergency kit. It makes me feel more comfortable having this kit at the ready in my home.
Thank you….
Thank you Tina, that made my day. I appreciate you being here, feel free to share my site with others! ~Tom
I love the contents of these bags. As a family we already have bug out bags but are still putting together all the gear we feel we would need in an emergency situation. I would recommend extra medicine for those who take medications regularly to add to the bags too. We have a great little Gerber axe with a knife in the handle, foldable shovel, machete style knives, first aid kit, toilet paper, travel size body wash, shampoo and conditioner, toothbrushes and toothpaste and the like so far. We still need to add MREs or some kind of food and water purifying kits. We are also adding at least two changes of clothes for each person.
Those are all great ideas. I have some future articles coming up with some different checklists. Thanks, Laura. ~Tom
Thanks for doing a review on this, I think my family could definitely use it! I guess I never thought about it until I saw your post!
Hi Sally, thanks so much for your post. Have a great day. ~Tom
This is definitely something every family should have, one in the home and one in each car. You never know when an emergency can happen. Thank you so much for your review, it was very informative.
I need this to carry in my truck. U never know when a accident is going to happen
Great for camping and to have on hand. I like that it is ready for four people; you don’t always think about that when doing packs.
I’ve been stocking up on a lot of these items myself…I didn’t know there was a company that did it for you. I also learned a few things I should add to my list…
this looks like a pretty good kit. i agree about the portabnle cooking solutions, i also wish thered be more out there for limited diets.
Very good review. We all need a disaster or survival kit. Thanks for reminding us.
The Boy Scouts had it right “BE PREPARED!” When the kids were at home, we thought about safety a lot more than we do now. Boy, was that a mistake!! We almost found out the hard way! There was an electrical surge that shot through ComEd’s old grid. A part of our village was hit. We were on that old grid and we got hit. Thank God, we still had surge protectors on most of the outlets. Those saved a lot of our appliances, etc. Unfortunately, we had some plastic ones that melted and caught on fire! The smell & smoke were AWFUL!!! Another thanks to the Good Lord, because the fire department was already in the neighborhood going door to door – safety checks!! They saved the day!!
Believe me, we went out that day and on got some things that the fire department suggested we get. The main one was getting a new fire extinguisher!! Also all new metal surge protectors!! I spread the news so that others won’t get caught off guard like we did. The sad thing is we knew better! We had it in our head that since nothing has happened all these years that nothing will! WRONG AGAIN!! Things can be replaced, but lives can’t – PROTECT THE ONLY LIFE GOD GAVE YOU & YOUR FAMILY’S!!!
I am sorry!! I forgot to use my name & not initials – sorry! The comment from Sue E is me!
This is great. You never know when something will happen.
Thats a great kit but wheres the canned food?
We love our LifeStraws. This looks Luke an amazing preparedness kit!
The 4-person preparedness kit is an informed way to be ready for anything that can happen. Everyone should carry this at home and in the car!!
This is definitely useful for our camping trips!
I think the First My Family Disaster Emergency Kit is an awesome product. I really need to to do some kits. Thanks for the review.
I absolutely love that this kit comes with a LifeStraw. Never seen that in a pre-made disaster kit before. We’re prepared to shelter in place for a good six months but don’t have much in the means of portable/ on the go preparedness. This would be great to leave by the door for just in cases.
Yes it would, and it has plenty of room to add more supplies, like beef jerky, boxed milk, powdered food, etc…
I live in Alabama, and our diasisters are usually tornados. You sometimes don’t have time to find what you need to help you survive. This would be a perfect solution for my family. Even after the damage is done, sometimes you don’t have power or food for days. This way at least I would know, that is not something I need to worry about with this kit. People think it won’t happen to them, but there are many types of disasters, and you don’t know when you will be affected by it. Don’t wait!
This is a really good review for the disaster preparedness kit. I have a few added items that would also be a great addition to the kit, but this kit is well stocked.
We are so NOT prepared if there was an emergency! Where would you keep these backpacks? In your car or at home to grab when needed?
A medics world is awesome!
Thank you, wish I had more people who visited and followed. ~Tom
This would be such an amazing gift to get for someone. Many people don’t think about items like this very often and it would be nice to provide them with the opportunity to have them on hand.
Congrats on the mind blowing milestone! I’ve been a fan for a long time and I’m so happy for you!!!
We really need something like this! We are so unprepared. I especially like that it includes a Lifestraw . I’ve been eyeing them for a while now.
That is a really great kit. i need to get me an kit like this. Hurricane season is approaching.
We just bought a 72 hour kit a few weeks ago and I feel much more prepared driving around with the kit in our trunk. I’m going to have to check this kit out too!
Awesome that you are prepared. It is good to have something in the house too, like if you had to bunker down in the basement. Have a great day! ~Tom
when the Japan quake hit a few years ago, my husband decided we should get those emergency preparedness kits. We got two sets…one of the upstairs and downstairs. It’s a really good idea. Each household should have it!
Cara, I agree. Every family/household should have an emergency plan. I plan to write more articles on this in the weeks to come.
That looks like a really great kit, I could use one.
They also have 2-person starter ones as well. Thanks for stopping by! ~Tom
Great to have for sure—because you never know!
It is, and you really do never know. We always say it will never happen to us. But it could.
This is such an important thing to do, thanks for raising awareness.
Thank you for stopping by and being part of this. Have a great day! ~Tom
This would be great for our family, since we live in an area that gets regularly hit by hurricanes. This is the perfect size for me, my husband, our grown daughter and young grand daughter. I really need to also start thinking about re-stocking our pet emergency packs. We have 2 dogs and two turtles that will go with us if we have to bug out.
Thanks so much for your comment, and you are correct, this would be great to have in that situation. ~Tom
This is awesome! It is always good to have a pack and first aid kit in case of an emergency!
Very true Britney, and this is good for a family of 4! ~Tom
Great kit! I love the bright red…especially if in an emergency I’d get noticed. I love the water bottle too. Great addition.
Thanks so much, I love it too. Thanks for stopping by!
This is pretty awesome! I need to get some of these kits. Great review!
Thank you so much, they are nice to have. A little piece of mind! ~Tom
I need to upgrade my emergency kit. I have one, but I need to get a few more things.
Having essentials are important! Thanks so much for your comment, have a great day! ~Tom
Tom,
Great review. Seems like a good kit to start out with. I like that there is room to add additional gear. Other prepacked kits don’t usually leave that option for the user. Even if the user didn’t add anything, this kit would tip the survival scale in their favor. My only problem is the color of the bag. There may be situations where you don’t want a bright red bag on your back drawing unwanted attention. But that’s just me.
Hi Mark,
I agree with you completely, but you can look at it from two sides. First, maybe you don’t want people to know you have supplies in fear of getting them taken. But Secondly, you might want the bright color in case you need to get noticed to be rescued.
I was going to maybe mention that in my review, but since I was torn on the advantages vs. disadvantages of that thought, I just left it out. Thanks so much for your through comment, I do appreciate it. ~Tom
Wow, this is a high quality emergency kit! I really need to get something like this for my trunk. We are constantly on the go and I’ve been worried what would happen when we are out in the middle of nowhere (especially if we run out of gas in the winter!)
Its a great kit, can be used for that, or if there was a natural disaster you would have supplies as well. Thanks so much for the comment Susan, have a great day! ~Tom
I have one for myself and each member of my family. We live in earthquake country so these stay by each bedside. They are compact and ready to go which I will say is the best part. Very much worth the investment – even the 4 person for each family member. It’s alway good to have a little extra to help others out in an emergency as well.
Good Point Pauline, extra never hurts, especially with the water packets, and the food rations. Thanks for your comment, have a great day! ~Tom
I love the backpack part! So much easier than carrying a jump kit! Leaves your hands free. Great review Tom!
Hi Debra,
Thanks so much! It is much easier! You are right! Thanks so much for your comment, have a great day! ~Tom
This looks like it’s perfect for a little family like ours! We were hit hard by Hurricane Sandy and live right near the water – it’s a great kit for flash floods and winter storms.
You are right Menucha! It is great for situations like that, and with room to add additional supplies it is a great starter set! Thanks for stopping by, and have a great day! ~Tom
Great review Tom! I think kits like these are a wonderful idea and could possibly help save lives if everyone had one!
Thank you Kimi, I appreciate your comment, and you stopping by. Have a great day! ~Tom
This is such a great kit. There are lots of EMTs in my area that could benefit from this.
It’s really for families as well Jenn, for emergencies when there is a disaster. Thanks so much for your comment!
Most people do not think about disaster or emergency preparedness at all. Regret strikes when disaster strikes, sadly.
This post brings us all to the place of being aware that we have to have the minimal support in the First Aid kit and food and animal prep kit as well.
Thank you for keeping us on the toes and bringing to spotlight things that DO matter, but overseen in the daily life busyness.
Thanks so much for your comment, it is always nice to be prepared! Have a great day! ~Tom
How awesome is this. This would give me some peace of mind if something happened. There’s nothing like being prepared.
Very true Kathy! Thank you so much for your comment, have a great day! ~Tom
I totally love this product, and a super great review!
Thanks for the amazing info.
Hi David,
Thanks so much. I really like mine, I also did a review for “The Walking Dead Emergency Kit” they sell, its here on the site as well! Have a great day! ~Tom
