Review on Stay Hydrated with the CamelBak Classic Hydration Pack - 85oz by Marquel Rubio

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Dumped with him the second time.

I bought this to replace my 11 year old 70oz Classic. I needed a little more water capacity as I moved to a dry climate. Overall, it's a worthy price tag as it's just as light and comfortable as the original Classic. Claims of getting 20 percent more water per sip are just marketing nonsense, as is the shut-off valve on the Bite Valve holder. I won't fumble with the on/off valve every time I want a drink, and when I want 20 percent more water, I just take two sips. The bite valve holder is at a 45 degree angle instead of 90 degrees and I find this makes it awkward to use, but it's not that difficult to overcome. My biggest complaint is that the end of the bite valve is leaking after the second use and I can't find the seller's contact information to request a replacement. I guess I'll just replace the Bite Valve on my 11 year old Classic.

Pros
  • Slim design
Cons
  • Long delivery time
