Review on ๐Ÿฅค CamelBak UnBottle Insulated Hydration Crux Reservoir Set, Frost Grey and Turkish Sea, 3 Liters by Kenny Marozas

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Barring one major design flaw, it would have been a five star product.

This is my third 3L Camelback Unbottle (the first was the original circa 2002). This design is almost stunning, aside from the fact that the wide-mouth gas cap almost never screws properly when closed. More than half of the time, the threads are screwed in incorrectly, resulting in improper sealing and water leakage from improper sealing. It is often necessary to remove the lid, filter out more water, and try to secure the lid properly. I have been using Camelback products for decades now and this is a clear design/manufacturing flaw. Trust me, this is not due to user error or ignorance. To be honest I can't believe Camelback hasn't solved this problem yet. I will continue to use this product otherwise I will need it in a mountaineering hydration system. Unfortunately, I will also be very disappointed that the manufacturer has not yet solved this problem.

Pros
  • Best in its niche
Cons
  • I will add later
