2Pack Hydration Backpack with 2L Water Bladder - Camelback for Kids Men & Women - Running Hiking Cycling

I have a larger Osprey brand bladder that I use inside my daypack on big treks. I was looking for something smaller and light weight for short hikes. I took this for a spin yesterday and was very happy. It's light weight, adjustable and worked as expected. I read a review (when I was researching) that said the water tasted bad. I was a bit worried about that but made the purchase anyway. My water tasted great. I rinsed the bladder first with clear water and then filled it up for my hike.

My son and I got these for a 10-mile bike ride we signed up for. This kept us hydrated without having to stop, working perfectly. My only con, is cleaning it. I had to look up how to clean it and it's much more time consuming then cleaning a water bottle. Would have been nice if it came with cleaning instructions.

This is my first ever camelback hydration backpack ever. The only con I have with the item although it keeps the water cold. The plastic tube attached to the bladder is not insulated. As one drinks you'll have a mouth full of warm water before drinking cold water. This may have been a design flaw.Update: Amazon does sell insulated drink tube covers. Enter in search text box "hydration pack insulated drink tube covers." However, I do not know which to choose from that will fit current camelpack.

Good value for a 2 pack. One came defective though. I wish there was a way to get partial credit on defective items. I don't feel like returning it. The chemical smell in the pouch was worse than other products like this that I have owned. Deal with it at home before going on a trip.Updated 2/14/23: Giving it a 5 star because the seller read my original review and refunded me the full purchase price. Amazing customer service!!

The boys didn’t like the water aspect was difficult to get it going, but loved the back tote part for storing items.

So worth it AND helps me hydrate cuz it’s just fun, easy & convenient!!

Loved the 2 pack with different colors. Great gift for me and gave one to my brother in law. Needs better directions on how to use it or a direct website to the product.

While I normally do not review products I buy on Amazon this product seemed worth the time to write the review. I ordered these backpacks as part of a donation to a charity where I am sending them to needy children thus both the price and quality were both important to me. I do not like sending products as donations that I would not use myself. The workmanship of the product is as high-quality as what I would use myself and the price was great because I can send more items. The cost is important to me so I can send more gifts to children around the world who are not as fortunate as I am and thus the charity can affect more people‘s lives. I work with my sister to find gifts for boys ages 10-14 as the center of the care package. This is the newer version of several hydration backpacks I own that have been with me on several 1-2 week backpacking trips and the ones I own have lasted 10 years plus.
