The reviewer initially placed the WANDRD VEER 18's inflatable components incorrectly and wished the bag included clearer directions. Quickdraw Access lets the reviewer remove one shoulder strap, swing the WANDRD VEER 18 around, and reach the main compartment without setting it down. The inflatable camera cube gives the WANDRD VEER 18 a protective layer around the camera without taking much more room than the camera itself.
The large top pocket of the WANDRD VEER 18 provides useful space for a sweater or lighter jacket. The WANDRD VEER 18's side zipper opens wide, giving access to nearly anything inside the pack except a laptop.
