The best hydration pack I have ever used.

Easy to clean
Does not make your water taste like cheap plastic
Hard wearing
Easy to re fill
Does not leak
Good flow from the bite valve
Basically it does everything you want it to do and nothing that you don't.

The army green one looks a bit cheesy for my liking.

I would not use any other hydration system.

An excellent bladder with easy cleaning and a removable drink tube, making it easy to refil

Easy to fill and close
Easy to clean
Removable tube
Cover for bite valve

Bite valve not as good as camelbak - can leak a bit
The bladder is made of stiffer material then a camelbak, making it harder to squeeze into a bladder pocket
Be careful when removing that tube if water still present!

The advantages far outweigh the (minor) disadvantages. Once you have one of these you will not go back to other makes

Tough functional and easy to use.

Excellent twist and bite valve no leaks at all. Provides good flow rate right until the bag is empty.
Very simple to refill and to clean.
Excellent hose to bag attachement failsafe and idiot proof.
Very tough. All you taste is the water and any flavourings you may choose. Low price.

Hose could be an inch or two longer if the bag is sitting right down in the sleeve in your pack.
The black cap which itself is great to keep the bite valve clean could be a little easier to remove (however this is easy to rectify with a scalpel or craft knife and remove part of the retaing bump on the inside of the black cap).

By far the best bladder bag you can put in your rucsac.

Very good, Nothing bad.

I brought the 3L version of thsi pac.
Cheaper than the other standard Source hydration pack (Narrower pack.) By a £ per litre 3L costs £19 for the widepac and £20 for the standard pac.
Very Very easy to clean and allow to drip and dry.
ALso with cool sealer lid =D

Nothing in my opinion.

Excellent value for money hydration sysem.
