Pros - excellent build and construction, simple to fill and childs play to close without spillages. On the down side - not long before you have to clean it and boy thats a mission. Bicarbonate soda and lemon juice wash is entertaining, wash out and then freeze hozer and pipe to kill all bacteria only to be left with an off taste inthe water forever.

Safety warning - when taking your sack off take care that the mouth piece attached to one of the shoulder straps does not come into contact wth ground or worse still cack! Its esily done as you take off your sack and place it on the ground, when needing access to contents of sack, at lunch break or at the end of the day.

overall score 3.5
