Great bladder! Went through some tough use and not a single leak or drip!

Ive searched around for water bladders mainly for raves or festivals and this has to be the best one ive come across. The top opening is the best feature since it fully opens up instead of other bladders that have screw off cap that is positioned on the side of the bladder, which is very difficult to pour water into and you cant fully fill the bladder. The water buffalo also has a unique hose value that you can easily attach your hose into. one of the best products ive purchased.

This is my third hydration bladder. I've given it some field testing and I like the build quality, zip closure, capacity, and watertightness, but the bite valve is hot garbage. I really chug when I need to hydrate and the flow rate is frustratingly slow. My travel partner has weaker lungs and they observed that it takes quite a bit of suction to get water out of this bladder and I agree with that assessment.I replaced the hose and valve with a GYZR from Mazama and that resolved the issues. I did have to transplant the original quick disconnect to the new hose to make it compatible. This left me with an extra GYZR quick disconnect, which just happened to fit on my DIY Sawyer Mini pump setup, so now I can pump stream water directly into the bladder through the fittings and don't have to worry about holding a floppy bladder open while operating the hand pump.I've never had any hose insulation keep the water in the hose cold and this was no exception. I do think it helped keep the hose from freezing during an overnight cold snap.

As the title says, a very good bladder. Been on the search for a good one and this thing hasn't leaked on me yet. It's super easy to clean and the sliding mechanism on top is reliable. They put a lot of care into what is needed for a bladder pack and the technology on the bladder is really nifty. I personally like the bite valve + push-in-to-close on the nozzle. I plan on buying a second one for my 100 miler. My only issue with it is that the little flimsy piece of plastic that holds the cap is easy to break. Perhaps a stronger material instead of plastic can be use, maybe like a paracord or something.

Perfect for hiking and backpacking. Awesome locking mechanism, so much easier that a screw cap. Especially for folks that suffer from any arthritis in the hands.

I wanted to test this a bit before reviewing so my wife and I took it on a few hikes and then to Disneyland. I have a backpack that is outfitted for a bladder system but did not come with one.It did great for the hikes. We noticed it was difficult to get water from the mouthpiece at first but it seems the more we used it, the easier it became. On our first day in Disneyland, it sprang a leak. We thought it was where the hose connected to the bladder but something in the backpack pierced the bag. We patched it with some super glue and didn’t have any issues after.The optional cleaning kit is a must. The hanger that comes with the kit is crucial to keeping your bladder lasting. We’ve had others that we thought we had dried completely only to find out on our next use it tasted moldy. Once that taste sets in, it never goes away.To clean, I highly recommend warm (not hot) water and baking soda. Any soap will also leave a taste you can’t get rid of. Wash it after every use or if you know you’ll be using it the following day, keep it filled overnight and simply rinse it out before it’s next use. Make sure it is 100% dry before storing. It usually takes about 48 hours with some adjustments in between.The same goes for the hose. Detach it, rinse and with the mouthpiece in the open position, blow any remaining water out. Use the hose brush by inserting it in the connection end and hang to dry in the open position with the cap off.All in all, this product is great and as long as you take care of it, it’ll work great.

Problems I ran into:My box came damaged but there was nothing wrong with the product!I had some trouble sliding the closure mechanism on and off. After doing it for a while, it loosed up and now I can do it without putting a significant amount of force into it.I washed it twice before usage and no problems with the water tasting weird.Next thing I encountered was how to open the bite valve so water could come through. Just like the closure mechanism, it was difficult at first but became easy after some break in. If you are wondering why water isn't coming through, it's because you need to pull on the bite valve and pop it into the open position. bite down and pull it, it should open up like the pictures. It may pop off the whole piece the first time, like it did to me. I know was confused at the mechanism at first.Good things:PriceInsulated hoseHolds a good amount of waterGood designEasy to cleanComes with extra o-rings for quick disconnect hoseFeels durableCap to stop dust getting in the bite valve(I work outside in dusty environments, keeps the saw dust and dirt out)I rate my experience as a 4/5 due to the box and small thingsI rate the product a solid 5/5 for the price. I would recommend this to anyone looking for a good hydropack.
