KUREIDAHydration Bladder 2 Liter Leak Proof Water Reservoir,BPA Free,Wide Opening, Military Water Bladder Combined with Hydration Backpacks for Biking Hiking Running Camping Climbing,Blue

I got this after one of my old bladders burst. So far, I’ve used it on bike rides, hikes, and at theme parks. This bladder is working very well—it’s taken some abuse and is still holding strong. It’s not too big, so it leaves room for other items and not too heavy when it’s full. I plan to ordering a couple more for my girl and son for our future adventures.

Water hydration bladders have come a long way. This is a nicer quality bladder. I use this in my saddle bags while horseback riding. I have put both water and adult beverages in it with good results. The bladder is very durable and the spout portion is easy to open and close as well as drink from. This bladder doesn’t leak, but condensation does form. I keep it in insulated saddle bags with ice so it’s not an issue for me. The best part about this hydration bladder is that it is very easy to clean and dry. The whole end opens up so you can thoroughly clean it with soap and water. The hose is easily cleaned too. It also comes with a cooling rag that will be nice for summer rides.Overall the quality is very nice and I feel as though the price is very reasonable. I will be purchasing more for friends as gifts. I would recommend it!

UPDATE 03/19/2022: I've been using it for almost a year, about 3 times a week, have over 750 miles hiking with it and it's still going strong. I'm not really hard on it but not too careful either.I bought this on a whim as a backup. My lightly used Platypus has a leaky bite valve and I wanted something also 2L to try out, and the price was right. So far I've only used this all spring/summer 2021 (a LOT) and it's been working really well. I would NOT buy another Platypus: after only a handful of uses the valve started leaking. I would DEFINITELY buy this one again though. The black writing is starting to wear off on the bag due to extensive use, but the bag, hose, and valve are still working perfectly.

Works as advertise

I liked the ease of cleaning this bladder because of the nice wide opening. No matter how I positioned the bladder, I could only get 1.5 liters into it because the opening was so large. Still, that was enough water for short hikes in warm weather. I liked the size for my 18L Gregory pack and I could easily insert and attach it to my pack. The nozzle worked great but remember to pull it out before using. No issues with leakage. Good budget buy.
