I'm reasonably pleased, but that's because I wasn't expecting much at this price point. I was primarily looking for items to keep in my car, and the kit was discounted to $40 when I purchased it.
The bag I received is perfectly fine with no obvious flaws. It has plenty of space to add items, which is good. It will also attach nicely to the larger bag I keep in my car. I'll be able to assemble and stash a good car kit in it.
The shovel is small, but I think it would be fine for digging a bit of snow or gravel out of the way. Or, if you're thinking in terms of prepping, a small pit for a fire or to bury waste. It would be tiresome to use for more than that.
The hammer and axe multitool is cool, reasonably heavy, and I can definitely see it being a handy adjunct to a tire iron or a tire plug kit. The blade is not sharp out of the box.
Adolescent me would have happily used this as the primary implement to build a lean to for funzies. It would work for the purpose, but it wouldn't be efficient. However, it's not half bad for a back up tool.
Folding knife. Not sharp, but it's a multi-purpose size once I get an edge on it. Again as a back up, no complaints.
The spork makes me grin. Ironically, its knife is reasonably sharp. I'll put it with my lunch stuff. 🙂
Most of the other items are pretty run of the mill. Unless you already fish, a fishing kit isn't going to help you much in the eschaton. Practice with the ferro rod, etc. The compass on the paracord bracelet does appear to be reasonably accurate which is more than many button compasses can say.
The first aid supplies are the big let down here. Cheap, useless scissors and tweezers. The other supplies could be added to a separate first aid kit, but on its own this kit is more of a "better than nothing" situation.
All in all, if the major components are items you want back ups for, this isn't a bad set, but if you're looking for survival items you don't want this as your primary or only kit.

Packed With Everything You Could Need
This kit is extremely well put together and has just about every tool and first-aid item you would need in an emergency or outdoor situation. The quality of the tools is better than expected—sturdy shovel, solid multitool, good flashlight, and a surprising amount of medical supplies for the size of the bag. Everything fits neatly in the MOLLE pouch, making it easy to keep in a truck, backpack, or camping gear. Great all-around survival kit for the price and perfect for hiking, hunting, or keeping on hand for emergencies. Highly recommend.

Perfect Survival Kit – Quality Gear at a Great Price
This kit is packed with useful tools and first aid essentials without feeling bulky or heavy. The materials and zippers feel durable and well-made, the pouch is compact and easy to carry, and the included gear offers excellent value for the price. Exactly what I wanted for emergency readiness and outdoor use.

Spacious
Not sure what made me think this was going to be a normal sized backpack. It’s mini but great to grab and go. The tools are great quality and quite sharp. It also comes with a small first aid kit in a ziplock bag. The actual carrier itself is pretty roomie for how many things it comes with so you can add extra first aid if you’d like.

Good set for outdoors lovers
This has been the best kit we have ever bought, and we’ve tried a few. Unfortunately the knife jammed up the day we opened the gift and would no longer open all the way or close all the way, just stick in the middle. So it did break trying to fix it. But all other items we have used are great. The shovel is especially useful and have used it many times.

Small and useful, just in case you meet Sasquatch and need a fire.
Lots of cool things for a quick bag to grab when it’s going down with folding essentials (IYKYK). It also settles the scenario nerves abit while hiking in the bush. Small enough to sneak into your wife’s pack for shared weight distribution too.

Was expecting a larger bag to hold more items but still pretty decent for use
