Water Bladder for Hiking Backpack – 1L/1.5L TPU Material Hydration Bladder with Readable Markup, Large Opening Lid, Mouthpiece Cap & Easy Tube Connection – Water Pouch for Backpac , Camping Trips

I bought this to replace a bag for a 1.5L camel pak at a much better price point. I wasn't sure it was gonna fit correctly, it fits snugly into the pocket. The plastic appears pretty strong, I've taken it hiking a few times, with no issues. I've even blown it up with air a few times and it hasn't lost pressure for a few days. Air tight and water tight.

I needed this bladder to use with my shoulder bag when I ride my GRIT all trrrain wheelchair. A regular Camelbak wouldn’t work because I cannot wear it across my back. This bladder fits in my shoulder bag and is on my front side. I thought the drinking tube came with an insulated sleeve, but it did not. I can probably use one from an old Camelbak I already own.

I got this water bladder because I am ALWAYS thirsty and hate having to take my water bottle out of my bag when I’m on the go. I’m also a dog walker which makes it even harder to get a sip of water on a hot day when you have a leash in hand.I didn’t want to shell out a ton of money for a name brand camelback since I wasn’t sure if I would even end up liking the situation, so I figured I could find something cheap on Amazon to test it out.Here are my thoughts on this water bladder:Pros:- so far hasn’t leaked!! I know that’s the bare minimum but this was literally 8 bucks on Amazon so I wasn’t expecting much- keeps the water pretty cool if you add ice and keep it in a bag (I have a small jansport that I just toss it in and leave the tube out through the zipper- the straw/tube cap is nice to prevent any dripping AND it has a piece of plastic that attaches to the tube it self so it doesn’t fall off. This is also SUPER helpful when closed because I can clip it to my keychain on my belt loop so the tube isn’t just flopping around when I walkCons:- it’s kind of hard to fill, once you get the hang of it it’s not so bad, but I definitely spilled a lot of water in trying- the mouth piece is a bit big for my mouth. I have a small mouth as it is and also a tight jaw so it makes biting down on the mouth piece uncomfortable- screwing the tube onto the bladder isn’t the easiest task, I wish it had an attachment that spun and tightened the seal so I didn’t have to spin the entire tubingOverall, I like it and it does the job! It was cheap and works well. I’ve only used it for 2 days but so far so good!

I mainly got this for my 5 yrs small Camelback and it works perfectly. Easy for him to use and open the nozzle. I also use it for shorter hikes. I like that the tube clips in and out for easy cleaning.

I don’t usually write reviews, but this product was just so bad, I felt the need to warn others. I bought this for a hiking trip to the smoky mountains. While the price was attractive, especially on a budget, it’s not worth it. First off, the taste of the water was absolutely terrible, and that was after cleaning it out before first use. Second, it leaks. It leaked out all in my backpack everywhere. My extra socks, sweatshirt for cooler temps at higher elevations, my book, binoculars…absolutely everything was wet. It soaked right threw my pack and my clothes were wet, too. I threw it away after one hike and just brought extra bottled waters for the rest of my trip. Don’t waste the money…buy name brand. Better quality is worth the extra money.

I have two, three liter hydration bladders and I never fill them past a liter. This solves the problem (my problem anyways) since this takes up less space in my day pack and weights slightly less then the full 3 liter bags do, I find this is all that I need. I also like the mouth piece better than my other two Hydration packs too. Although it is a bit thinner shell than my others, only time will tell if it holds up.

Bought it for a Yellowstone trip. Used daily for 10 days. Bladder container itself is ok. But the nipple is very poor quality. First the cap broke off, we opened and closed it a lot, so probably due to using it, but shouldn't break that fast as its meant to be opened and closed. Then it started leaking. Ended up buying new nipple. Bladder is still ok.

I bought a second hand pack and needed a replacement bladder. This thing is golden to fill, insert into the pack and dry for my 3 year old to use and makes her feel so independent on our hikes while she carries her own water The sip valve is easy to use and keeps the water from leaking with her limited knowledge of how they work.
