I have been using your products for years. I own several of the hydration systems, from packs to bottles. I am still using all of them, which speaks to the quality of the gear.

Easy to use, pretty much exactly what I would expect from Camelbak. I bought this as an accessory for a new backpack and it fits in nicely and works well.

I like cold water when I hike. I usually fill my hydration bladder completely with ice and add a little water. This works well until all my ice melts, which typically doesn't take long when it's hot outside. I bought this insulated reservoir hoping to prolong the life of my ice. I went on a long hike last week (20 miles, 10 hours) and filled the bladder all the way with ice before I hit the trail. It was 80 degrees outside, and my ice lasted about 7 hours. It would have lasted the entire 10 hours, but I had to add water to the bladder, and after 7 hours my frozen water bottle was longer cold. I am completely satisfied with this purchase and will most likely buy the 3L version as well. My only complaint is the strap on top - it's a little thick and can be difficult to hang when your backpack provides only a small loop for bladder suspension.

Product was as described. Pleased with the quality.

Great value.
