Cleanliness is next to godliness, which lives next door to hydration.
We all do it, but now when you find that weeks (ok, months) old full reservoir in your bag, you can use the Platypus Cleaning Kit to mend your misdoing. The big brush cleans out the reservoir itself, while the tiny brush scrubs out the drinking tube. Here's a tip if it's super-funky: fill the whole deal with water, then add a denture tablet. Wait fifteen, then scrub and rinse approx. one billion times until the old lady smell is gone.

Specifically designed to provide customized cleaning for all Platy bottles and hydration systems, the Platypus Cleaning Kit includes a tube brush and a reservoir brush.

Platypus Cleaning Kit Reviews:

No matter how much I tried to clean my system after use, I still got mold growing in the tube and sack. This was the perfect solution for a decent price (compared to the camelbak cleaning kit, this is a better buy).
The pipet-like brush worked like a charm. It fit perfectly in the tube and came right out along with all the mold.
The only suggestion I have is if Platypus made some device to hold the sack opening open (like the camelbak kit), because it takes several days for the sack to dry.

worked well for me

I bought this to clean my Camelbak Classic because my local REI store didn't have the Camelbak cleaning kit. This one worked great and was easy to use. The tube cleaner was plenty long enough to reach the entire length of the tube [which apparently isn't the case with the Camelbak kit]

After seeing the gunk that came out of the tube I was appalled that I hadn't cleaned it sooner.

Fits in all my Platypus products

I bought this as I've had my platypus big zip bladder for ~3 years, but I've never had brushes to clean it! Yay for no more filthy water bladder!

I also own a 0.5L soft bottle and the 1L plus bottle. The brush fits great into those - and as I understand, the hoser has the same diameter of opening as those do.

This cleaning kit works great for the platypus 1L bottle. The brush easily gets to all parts of the bag, except at the top immediately under the opening. The small tube brush is perfect for cleaning the inside of normal drinking straws that I reuse.

Don't think just buy it. If you have ever had a bladder sitting in your pack you know how hard it is to really get it clean. You have to have the tools to get that stench and taste out...and these are the tools

Thank goodness for the tube cleaner! I've been having problems with mold developing in the tube, near the mouth piece and this kit completely got rid of it. The larger brush is also great to get out any left over Nuun or Gu slime.

If you drink a lot in the mountains and use water systems whatever which one (I use Platypus and Osprey) this kit is thing to go for - really works and helps to maintain in good conditon water containers !!!

Just got the Platy 1 and 2l bottles so they didn't need cleaning.
Had a Blackhawk that needed cleaning and got the job done easily with the "Right tool"

I have been using platys for 10 years and never had a cleaning kit. Finally got one and i am glad i did!

I actually bought this to clean out my 1L water bottles - it works like a charm. Definitely a worthwhile purchase.
