he usado artículos Hydrapak y son de mi total agrado, en esta ocasión fue una bolsa de 3 lt. tuvo una ligera fuga, hice la devolución y me reembolsaron el monto a mi cuenta de inmediato, pedí otra y me llego al 100%

Hydration bag with hose works great on my Scott hydration back pack.
Would buy again.

I’ve owned several other hydration bladders before. They’re usually in the style with the big giant screw-on lid on one side near the top (see: Camelpak). It’s very difficult to get those completely full of water. With this Hydrapak Contour bladder and the zip top, you can fill it completely full of water. There’s no wasted space. And it’s easier to fill because it’s actually the top and not just the side. I’m even confident enough to fill it while it’s still in my pack.
Leak free. No leaking here so far. Not from the zip top, not from the hose connection, and not from the bite valve. They do say you occasionally have to lubricate the o ring for the hose connection and they do include the lubricant for them, so kudos to them for the transparency, instructions, AND the lubricant. The bite valve locks as well which is great.
Sturdy. The material is very sturdy and they were thoughtful enough to add a handle to hold it steady. They also were smart enough to add places to hook the pack up inside your backpack on top of the zip lid. Phenomenal quality.
Cleaning is easy. You can turn the thing inside out if you need to for goodness sakes. That ALSO makes it super easy to dry, which is not something I have been able to say about any other water bladder. Ever.
I only wish they offered a dust cover for the mouth piece, because those do get dusty and dirty.
The magnet clip is a bit of a gimmick, it’s not really necessary.

Needed a bladder that fit the bulky hook in my Gregory pack and was relieved that it works. I was delighted with how functional the Hydrapak is, makes it easy to use and keep clean.

These are absolutely fantastic!
We’ve tried other hydration bladders in the past and they were awkward to fit into our bags but the hose on the side is so much better!
They do not leak!
The valve is stiff at first but gets easier with use to move back and forth.
10/10 would absolutely recommend these

After lots of research I finally settled on this water bladder for my hikes out in Utah. This bladder worked great and was leak-free. It’s easy to clean. I just used soap and water. No weird taste, just plain water could be tasted. The mouth piece was easy to use. I even had my dslr Nikkon camera in my bag with the bladder! This is pricey compared to other bladders but to me it is worth the money for a leak-free, no bad taste water bladder. Totally recommend for your hiking adventures!

O material é de boa qualidade e aparenta ser durável, mas a limpeza interna é difícil de fazer.

Recently purchased the Teton Oasis 22l. Great bag but the bladder was terrible. This product is great. It fits in my Teton just fine. The material is good quality and after a wash and lemon juice treatment, the water tastes clean. The handle is a lot more useful than I would have thought. Great leverage spot for filling and cleaning. The magnetic clip is great but the hose isn’t so long that I felt it necessary. Ymmv but I certainly am not complaining about it. Time will tell with durability but it feels solid and designed with intention.
I’ve read reviews about the baffles inside minimizing water sloshing around. I remove excess air by flipping it upside down (after closing and sealing it) and sucking out the air. I can’t speak to their effectiveness but they certainly aren’t hurting anything.
I’ll continue to use some form of pack liner in my hydration pocket in case of failure but so far I feel confident that it won’t fail.

I backpack in areas with miles between reliable water sources so it’s not realistic for me to just carry a Smartwater bottle like I see everyone using these days. I pound water and camel up when I happen across water but sometimes that’s only at the shelters. I drink a lot working at my desk so even more on the trail. I bought a bladder because I can’t reach my water bottles with my pack on and so got too thirsty between breaks and kept drinking too much when I did stop. Sipping along the way helps so much! The top closure is just like a CNOC if you’ve used those but this is thinner (ligtest weight bladder on the market, my reason to purchase this specific one). We’ll see how durable it is. Easy to take apart and clean (my other reason for purchasing). Like, actually easy. Fits in my ULA overnight with his sleeve he sells and my old Gregory day pack (built in pouch). You don’t need a sleeve but I’m paranoid about punctures or leaks. I haven’t tried filtering directly into it yet.

I bought this bladder because I thought the one from my expensive running vest was about done for.
The place where the hose attached to the bag would not seat properly. Water would slowly leak out at the attachment point. When I received this bladder, I read that the connection port should be lubricated on occasion.

I had no idea.

I look the lube provided by this bladder and lubed the bladder I thought was worn out. The old bladder works just like new. I am super happy I bought this because I think it just saved me a lot of money and maybe my mistake might help someone else.
Anyway, I like the design of this one better. The bite valve and the top bag closure are the best I have come across. The bladder itself seems to be quality and I love that it holds 3 liters.
I trail run and the top slide of my other bladder has almost slipped off sideways while wearing the vest it came with. If it had, all of my water would have spilled out and I would have been in trouble. It was the middle of summer and I was 10 very difficult miles from the next water source. I tell you that story because it was kinda scary and to point out that I have never had that issue with this bladder.
