SurviveX Large First Aid Kit

By Tom Calder

Our verdict · Researched
4.5 / 5

A home kit sorted by job: wounds, burns, hygiene, tools and personal care each have their own labeled section, which matters when you're looking for something fast. SurviveX says it favors useful supplies over the cheap filler in most consumer kits, and it includes Zip Stitch closures for larger cuts. It costs more than a big-box kit with a higher piece count, but more of what's inside is useful.

Our review

SurviveX's Large First Aid Kit packs 250 supplies into a tri-fold bag with labeled pockets for wounds, burns, hygiene, tools and personal care. This review covers what SurviveX lists inside, what it leaves out, the bag's size and weight, and how the kit fits official preparedness lists.

What it is and who it suits

SurviveX says the kit holds 250 supplies for wounds, burns, sprains, fractures and trauma, and that it covers 3 to 4 people. It weighs 2.8 pounds and measures 10.4 by 7.3 by 6.7 inches. The bag is 900D polyester with MOLLE webbing, and the organization system is a tri-fold with labeled pockets. SurviveX says the kit was designed in Virginia and is FSA and HSA eligible.

It suits a household that wants one organized kit for the home or a vehicle, and is willing to add its own medications. SurviveX says the back panel mounts to a car headrest, a backpack or a wall.

How it is organized

The compartments are grouped by use: Wounds, Burns, Hygiene, Tools and Personal Care. SurviveX says every supply packet is color-coded and that the included first aid guide uses the same color system, so a helper can match the guide to the right section. That is the kit's main selling point, since a large kit is only useful if you can find things quickly.

What SurviveX lists inside

SurviveX's listing names Zip Stitch wound closures, gauze, a pressure bandage, strip closures, hydrogel burn gel, a CPR mask with valve, gloves, 7-inch trauma shears, an 18-inch splint, a triangular bandage, nitrile gloves, BZK antiseptic wipes, alcohol prep pads, triple antibiotic ointment, a thermal blanket, glow sticks and a whistle. It also lists a fever strip and tweezers. SurviveX describes Zip Stitch as a non-invasive field alternative to traditional stitches, which is the maker's claim.

The listing says the kit favors high-utility supplies over the cheap filler found in standard consumer kits. We have not counted the contents, and the 250 figure is SurviveX's.

What it leaves out

SurviveX says the kit focuses on supplies and has no medications, with a personal medication pocket holding individual ziplock bags for your own. Ready.gov's kit list includes prescription medications and non-prescription items such as pain relievers, so plan to add those, and the Red Cross lists a 7-day supply of medications and medical items for a survival kit.

A CAT tourniquet is not included in the standard kit, according to SurviveX, which sells one as an add-on. Ready.gov's list says to replace expired items as needed, so check dates on anything you add.

How it fits an emergency kit

Ready.gov's basic kit list includes a first aid kit, and this one covers that line with room to spare. Our first aid kit comparison sets it beside other options, including the Swiss Safe 348-piece kit, and our emergency kit checklist shows where it sits among the other supplies.

Who should skip it

Skip it if you only need bandages for everyday scrapes, since a smaller kit takes less room. Skip it if you want a hard case, because this is a soft bag, though SurviveX sells a waterproof version with matching contents. Whatever kit you buy, read its guide before you need it.
