Platypus Big-Zip Hoser 1.8 Liter Hydration Packs

Platypus Big-Zip Hoser 1.8 Liter Hydration Packs 

DESCRIPTION

Zip-open fluid reservoir with drinking tube assembly and a 1.8 liter capacity turns your pack into a hydration system at a fraction of the cost. Big-Zip features large reservoir opening for easy filling, cleaning or addition of ice cubes; zip-lock provides a watertight seal. Lightweight, puncture-resistant 3-ply plastic laminate is lined with food-grade polyethylene that won't flavor your water with a plastic taste. Durable welded construction lets you boil, freeze, inflate, or collapse the bag over and over again. Drinking tube assembly includes a 42" high-flow hose connected to the reservoir cap and a no-hands bite valve with lapel clip.

Bought this bladder system for versatility. Can use it in my daypack and also in my backpacking setup. Worry-free durability...no punctures after numerous outings in overstuffed packs. The huge "zip" opening is great for those who want a fast fill up of hot or cold beverage, and no problems with loading in ice cubes. Wish I would have bought a larger one sometimes, but have never used an entire bladder during a dayhike. Used during a few snowshoe hikes as well, but hose froze up a little if not sipped on regularly. Overall, for the price, I am very pleased with my purchase

Customer Service

When originally purchased, my bite valve was continously leaking and dripping on me. Cascade Designs redesigned it later, and after a quick e-mail to them, they sent me the $5.00 replacement free
