Mubasel Gear Insulated Hydration Backpack Pack with 2L BPA Free Bladder - for Running, Hiking, Cycling, Camping

Bought these for my kids (11 & 13) so they could stay hydrated on our vacation hikes. I appreciated that these were insulated (most that we looked at were not) & they can fit 2L of water in them. We previously had water bottles and slings but those get in your way when climbing on rocks and through caves, etc. We really appreciate the caps on the end of the mouthpiece. When hiking through Utah, it gets really dusty and we saw others with hydration backpacks who had to have a friend wash off their mouthpiece prior to drinking. It also gave my kids adequate space for their Junior Ranger packets, pencil, phone, sunglasses and chapstick. My only complaint is that we use the water bottle refillers to fill them up and you have to hold them at a bit of an angle since the opening is a screw-on large cap on the side & you have to use your hand to "activate" the water filler. We saw another person filling their bag from the top & it was much easier. Of course, my 11 &13 YO can fill them... so probably most anyone can do so too. ;) We put ice in them each morning so their water was nice and cool most of the day.

I bought this to run long runs wearing. I wore it for a 25k race and it worked out really well. The bladder holds plenty of liquid and I had no issues running out during my race. We started at 7am and that day the high was 39. There were other runners who had issues with their drinks freezing in the tube but mine did not. It didn't freeze in the bladder either. Everything was well secured but I do wish the waist pockets were longer because if you have a big phone like I do( Samsung G8 Note), it doesn't fit there. For me, that's really important because I also like to use Strava to track my runs and I have to put it in my back pack instead, which requires me to have to take it off and put back on. It's not that much of a hassle but just wanted to make it a note for people in case they want to know. (I had a Samsung Galaxy 7 that fits just fine in the waist pockets without the case on it before I got my Note)

I have only used it once but I'm loving it. Seems like good quality material. Enough space for my can of soda, phone, inhaler, knife, snacks, sunscreen and a little bit more. Fits good around the back and waist. Soft padding in the back. For the price it's awesome. If it ends up sucking in the next 6 months I'll edit my review. So far BIG thumbs up!!!

Wanted a lightweight, comfortable day pack with hydration. This was perfect & really worked well for our National Park hopping vacation. It had plenty of storage, kept my water cool (i added ice to the bladder & it was still cold at the end of the day.) I was able to fit snacks, jacket, camera, first-aid kit, maps, brochures, etc. All without a problem. Would definitely recommend.

Love this backpack so far! I got it because I always forget to drink enough water and hate carrying around a water bottle. I also wanted a little more space to store snacks and supplies than the other camelback I have. It is still small and lightweight. I often forget I'm wearing it. It worked wonderful last weekend riding the trail. I also have used it camping, around town, and hiking. Love the color and the fit! I've gotten a lot of compliments and people wanting to know where I got it. Sad story though...:( I accidentally shut the truck door on the mouth piece and it snapped off, so make sure you don't make the same mistake!!!

Out of the box, this is great! Everything arrived bagged in plastic, clean and tidy. Obviously, I rinsed the water bladder, (remove the thin foam pad in there) and hose. Pros I like: large opening for water and ice can easily be added. Bag has reflective inside for insulation. Tubing has its own neoprene sleeve, for insulation. Tubing clicks into place, on the bladder, so you "know" you connected it correctly. There's a dust cover on the bite style valve. And it's tethered. No leaks so far. This appropriate size for kids age 8/10 and older. And adults. I'm 5'3 and it's a small back back pack on me. Exactly what I wanted. Main pocket holds the water bladder. Then another pocket has 2 smaller pockets so your stuff is organized. All zippers are sturdy, smooth and strong. Side pockets, chest strap is adjustable in the vertical direction as well. These are nice touches, I would expect to pay more for. I will come back to edit, if I found any cons, or issues. October Update: Used for 4-5 outdoor, summer heat activities. It held up great, and kept water cool all day - no leaks. slight plastic flavor came thru on first or second use, from the tubing, I suspect. Still keeps 5 stars. Extremely pleased with this purchase, for under $40. It is superior to my friends more expensive brands version of water in your backpack. So much more stable vs. bottles on your back.

This has been great and it is working for me. Water pack has large opening so it’s easy to clean and dry. Good amount of pockets too.
