Hey everybody!
As the thread title states, I'm an American looking for an opinion on a pack out of the UK.
I've been pack hunting for a good while now, have a few packs and have played with a lot of set ups over the years and feel like I'm starting to really get a grasp on what the sweet spot is for myself in terms of what I really want and will get the most use out of for my 1-5 day pack.
This is the pack I've had my eyes on for quite some time that is an American pack, but the price point is hard for me to really justify to myself.

So, have been spending a quite a bit of time looking for something similar in weight, load capacity and size.
My intense searching has lead me to this Bergen made by Marauder.

It's been very hard for me to find reviews on it, are any of you familiar with this pack or this company? Also, are there any other similar packs/companies you can think of out of the UK that are worth looking into?
It doesn't have to be milspec, the function just translates here, so.
Also, something else I've been considering is having imported another UK made system, using this hip belt in conjunction with a lighter pack, possibly.
There is definitely a lot of good stuff out of the UK that us here in the U.S. aren't aware of and familiar with, so would appreciate any help or insight you all can offer!!
