Review on 26L Hydration Pack Water Rucksack Backpack with 2L TPU Bladder Bag - Ideal for Cycling, Hiking, Climbing - Tough Military Style by Tom Goodlow

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great hydration bag with lots of storage

I really like this bag. It has enough storage space and I really like the color and size. Pretty durable but only time will tell - I can say the bag is mostly plain stitched so we'll see how long it lasts. At the same time I've put them in the washing machine once before on the delicates cycle and everything was fine, the stitching didn't unravel but the plastic material on the inside of the bag lining the fabric seemed to pucker up and down, no problem , even though it's in the bag. The bag is comfortable to wear, the straps are soft and even when fully loaded I feel like I'm carrying something with barley. Love the velcro straps that hold the hydration pouch in place, much easier to use than some other mechanisms. A real water bag and hose is ok but not my favorite. The nozzle does not flow when closed, which is very good. However, I feel like I have to work harder to get the water out than with other bags/jets I've used. Also, the nozzle doesn't have a lid, so it gets dirty sometimes while hiking, I'd prefer it closed. But overall a great bag.

Pros
  • Sturdy construction
Cons
  • No automatic controls
