What does this mean?Pros & Cons
Pros
Easy to dispense the water whilst walking. Big opening makes it easy to dry inside with a tea towel and it seems robust. Mouth piece feels a little bulky but it's only the protective cover so not a problem.
The pipe is slightly wider than the platypus ones i've used but that's made it easier to clean. The only thing to be careful of is that the pipe is securely * in at the start &. One design improvement i'd suggest is the ability to rotate the hose c... Read More
Great product and well priced. Works just fine. Don't stop reading just yet, as all will be revealed. Great bladder. Seems a nice product.
Would recommend to any hiking, running, cycling or climbing enthusiasts. Used this bladder on a recent 7 day trek in the atlas mountains of morocco. Great, just what was needed for a 3 peaks challenge.
Cons
The mouthpiece is very difficult to drink from compared with any other bladder. The tube is not easy to clean with a bladder cleaning kit as you can't get the brush in at both ends to clean the tube and the brush isn't long enough to reach to the end ... Read More
Highlights
Quality
With the mouthpiece now detached from the tube i tried to suck water from a glass using the mouthpiece
Seems to be a quality product but hasn’t been tested extensively
It was very easy to use it did not leak and was easily filled unlike my friends who had several issues with the brands they purchased
Shipping
Excellent does exactly what it says and fast delivery
Packaging/appearance
Used in the gelindo military tactical backpack hydration backpack which worked really well
On closer inspection i realised it wasnt a filter and was just packaging that required removal
Competitiveness
Technicals alpine aqua ii 6010 rucksack from millets has pocket built in for this product so well pleased
My old vango one had a resealable close on it which was like a ziplock bag with a clip on top
It was less than 1 year oldi bought this one as it has a proper lid on it which makes leaks much less lightly

Today i ordered a bite mouth piece to replace what was on this bladder and so removed the mouthpiece by placing it in boiling water to soften the tube in readiness for the replacement and to check that water would run freely without the mouth piece

I tried blowing through the mouthpiece and it was difficult to do that also

With nothing to lose i decided to try and remove the rubber that you bite on to so pulled at it and i thought i had broken it as the plastic slightly 4mm popped apart

I have just cancelled the order for the replacement mouthpiece and hope it is cancelled as it stated it may be too late to cancel

You do need to remember to screw the hose back on if you take it off to dry before you fill it though as theres no valve
