Hydration Pack with 2L or 3L Water Bladder & Cooler Bag > Keeps Drink Cool & Protects Bladders > Camelback Reservoir for Hydration Backpack, Tasteless & BPA Free, Quick Release Tube & Shutoff Valve

I ordered these for (2) reasons.1- Keep my water cold while on long/multi day kayak trips2- keep water from freezing while overnight backpacking in the White Mountains during winter.I just received these and wanted to share the tests to help others.I filled up a 3L with 110*F water, put it in the sleeve and put it into my freezer. The Freezer is 0.4*F. 18 hours later, the bladder is still 95% water with only a few (maybe 5) ice cube sized chunks in it. This will easily work for overnight trips as the water won't freeze during my hiking trip up and 8-10 hours later when I am in camp I will boiler new water for the next day. This also allows me the option of letting it sit out in the snow if I don't feel like sleeping with the bladder to keep it from freezing. I usually don't like sleeping with a water bladder unless it is -10*F or colder.For Kayaking, these are stretchy enough to freeze. By ordering (2) I can freeze (1) solid and leave it in the bag and should have icy cold water to drink on the second day of my trip.Also, the hose is much better quality than some of the other bladders I have used.pictures are after 18 hours in the freezer

Good value and durability. The system works well and is pretty easy to clean and maintain.I have purchased another, after my first had proven itself to be up to the task..

Nylon bag needs better stitching, thermal line kept water cold for 6 hours in 70 degree conditions. Hydro bag is very durable.

Hopefully this will be a good incentive for the boyfriend to drink water instead of straight beer on our river trip. The sweet camo print will have him floating in STYLE. Awesome deal for all of this though.

The bladder is nice but the sleeve it comes with don’t even fit over the bladder once filled with water. So I can’t even use the sleeve.

My bladder leaked. At first I thought maybe I didn’t close it all the way. So after the second time getting everything in my back wet I four two leaks. A pin hole on the back and around the opening. They only appeared if I put a little pressure in the bag. Unfortunately when it’s in my backpack it gets squished just enough to leak everywhere. With that said I am sure I would have given it 5 stars if it didn’t leak.

It’s ok clean easy

UPDATE: I have never had such a crap bladder. 2 days in a row my bag was completely soaked. I hike for hours and many miles and up mountains that are MILES to the next water source. I can't afford to have a full liter of my water at the bottom of my bag. Yes it was closed correctly. Save some money and get the Walmart one. At least that one has never leaked on me. I don't need the extra liter of water that bad.Nice bladder but the mouth piece from mine leaks when hanging while hiking no matter how tight I try to make it. Not sure what happened from the time I took it out of the package, cleaned it, added water and hanging down not touching anything but my mouth. Drops of water soaked my sweatshirt where it hung.

Bought this for the Freemove 10L camel hydration pack. It's a tight fit, but the bag will accomodate it. We went on a 8h hike and even by the end the water was still cool. Put lots of ice and refrigerated before the hike, but was pleased to be able to have a cool drink 8h in. Only issue is there is no room in cooler bag for anything other than the water bladder (so can't keep anything else cool).

This is a very nice water bag. The filler has a handle on it to keep the mouth open and level while the bag gets heavier with fill. No leaks so far. Really like the insulated bag that comes with it. Great price for a great prodcut.

Already a hole in it. And of course the return window has now closed. Late by 7 days
