    Happy with it so far

    I've used this on a couple of day walks so far, and I'm happy with it. Very slight plastic taste but barely. Not easy to clean which is why I gave 4 stars and not 5. I've been rinsing it and then keeping it in the freezer.

    Superb reservoir

    I bought this reservoir for tramping bc it had excellent reviews and it was always a battle with my previous 2 non platypus ones. It is super easy to fill and to clean. The mouthpiece water flow can be generous when needed on hot days with a minimum of effort - super easy to use. Recommended

    It does its job

    Like the title says, It performs as advertised. Although the advertising mentioned "taste free", the water tasted a bit like plastic for the first couple of fills. The taste is less noticeable now, but still there.

    Shipping was slower than most other online shopping in my experience.

    Simple is best

    Straight forward, tapless bladder,tube and bite valve means little to go wrong. Still some plastic taste but less than any other hydration bladder I've tried
