Equipment has advanced so much in 25 years, that anything you pick at REI should seem great. Compact, lightweight gear is everywhere, thanks to advances in materials.
REI isn't necessarily the cheapest or best in all cases, but they generally have great customer service and warranty support, which is mainly why I shop there. To purchase top quality gear is really, really expensive.
