Great Functionality | |
| Rating: | ![]() |
None of these reviews really seem to address the real reason for buying this bladder: functionality. My question to all of these reviews: If you own one of MSR's water filtration devices why would you use any other bladder? Simply screw this bladder onto the filter and away you go. No need for an intermediary devices or extra hoses only to then have a mis-step and spill the bounty of water right back into the muddy pond. Every bladder leaks and you simply need to wrap the straw into a service loop in the locked position and store it without any equipment on top of it. All straws will pseudo fracture due to cold without an insulation sleeve. If you go from filling your bladder at the kitchen sink for 2-hour hike and come back to refill at the sink, then maybe a wide mouth CB is the way to go. Take care of your equipment and don't knock down a product if you don't use it for its full functionality. I have had the same MSR 2.5L bladder for 2 years despite all of the abuse I put it through. | |

| Used these on a recent backpacking trip. I have to admit, I've gone through my share of hydration bags and this one by far - hands down - is far more superior than the rest. The handle is great when pumping directly into the bag with my Hyperflow, the bite valve doesn't leak and drip all over my clothes and the taste free liner IS indeed taste free. Although it's not a super burly bag. I didn't think twice about it getting a hole. I'd buy one again in a heart beat, but finally I think I won't have to! | |

"MSR is second to none" | |
| Rating: | ![]() |
| MSR has a reputation like no other. Specific features I like are the way you can hang the bladder by the lip under the lid or by the gromet-like holes near the lid. I also like that there is a traditional valve in addition to the bite valve. If you've ever had a bite valve get smashed in your car or pack, you'll know what I'm referring to. | |

Good Value | |

This MSR bag has two holes in the top which works perfect with my Osprey Atmos Pack. If you are afraid of it breaking, CamelBak replacement parts are available in almost every camping store and can be used to repair to create a hybrid back. If you want a bladder for more rugged use outside of your pack, buy the stronger Red MSR hydra pack. | |

Mighty fine water delivery system... | |

| I purchased the three liter version . It's bigger than I pictured, I don't drink half of it on 4 hour hikes. The bag feels tough and sturdy. The top has a handle built in that when held correctly allows the bag to fill perfectly. The bite valve hasn't dripped once. Definitely would recommend. | |

"good if you get past the taste" | |
| Rating: | ![]() |
| seems pretty well built, although it has a funny taste, even after a couple washings... oh well... who said water is supposed to taste good anyway... the little valve behind the bite valve is a welcomed addition, it keeps the thing from leaking like the first camel back bladder i had... | |

| I got the 3L bag and use it in my Osprey Aura 50. It fits well and I haven't had any problems with leaking. The bite valve has one of the best flow rates I have tried. Very good value compared to other reservoirs out there. | |

| This thing really comes in handy out in the desert. So far no problems, though the water has a bit of a taste despite the ads. | |

MSR Cloudliner | |
| Rating: | ![]() |
| This bag does what you would expect; it provides a drink of water. However, it spills so easily, you'll want to throw it away the second time you use it. It has an "off mode," but you can't determine if its off or on just by looking at it. This means any time your pack is unattended, like in a vehicle or sitting on the ground, you'll have as much as three liters of water escape. Its especially awful when you needed the water that leaked out for an entire day's activities, or if the weather is cold and your pack gets soaked. Buy the Camel Back version that doesn't spew water when you don't want it to. | |

Don't waste your money | |

This unit has a water tube with an inner liner. This inner liner detached within two days of use, gummed up and created an obstruction in the line. I purchased this hydration unit for a patient with ALS who cannot hold anything in her hands and can barely reach up to grab the tube. She thought she was getting too weak to even drink! It was a waste of money. We are having better luck with the CamelBak. | |

Do avoid this product | |
| Rating: | ![]() |
I have to say this is the worst Hydration bag I have ever owned. I wonder why MSR company is still selling this product. Two big headaches: 1) Lid is very hard to screw on and leaks; 2) bite valve also leaks at the connection point. | |

| I bought the hydration bag and the first time I went to use it water leaked all over my pack. The bag constantly leaked around the cap. Luckily, Moosejaw is great about returns and I exchanged it for a Camelbak. Haven't had any problems since. | |

inner liner of tube got jammed up in same way as another reviewer. I got a about a season out of it. Couldn't fix and so this bag is now useless. Did really like the bite valve on this; far better than other products. | |

| I used mine twice before it started to leak around the cap. I'm yet to try and fix it. I'd have loved it to last longer. These are convenient. | |

Light but leaky. | |
| Rating: | ![]() |
I had planned to take this on an overnight trip, but the mosquitoes convinced me otherwise. Which is fortunate, because I discovered the bite valve had a slow "drip, drip, drip" both in the closed and open position. The connecting hose also had a slow leak. Perhaps I did something wrong, or am just cursed by things that go drip in the night. (I once had a hydration bladder leak form a nice puddle inside my tent). I also found it difficult to screw the lid on and off. Couldn't imagine trying that with gloves on. I'm considering returning it for another brand or just going back to the good old Nalgene bottle. | |

"Just know the ups and downs..." | |
| Rating: | ![]() |
| I purchased this and a Platypus to replace an MSR bladder that got mold in it. This was my first problem with mold in 15 years of hiking. The reason - MSR bladders have a somewhat textured interior, and this allows for wet spots to stay wet and for things to grow and grasp something the rough texture. All my smooth lined bladders are fine. I cannot seem to win this battle in the MSR though... I bought this to try again because I like how it keeps water cooler longer on the hot trails! | |

Works fine, tough little sucker | |
| Rating: | ![]() |
I put a couple of key rings at the corner and hang it off the back of my pack. Works great. It's tough enough. During one trip when most of the water inside froze, I was able to break up the pieces of ice without fear of puncturing the bag material. Mine is working fine after a year of use. Ridged screw cap great for gripping, can be a little painful when fingers are really really cold. Or maybe I am a just a wuss. | |

Works great, not recomended if you "Hang your bag" | |
| Rating: | ![]() |
I purchased this to go with my Osprey Atmos 65 pack, in the Osprey, you can hang the bladder between the back panel and the inside of the pack (gives you more space in the pack, however does reduce air flow a bit) after one trip, one of the eyelets ripped as they are not reinforced. if your going to place this in a pocket, it's a great choice as it is super light. | |
