Unigear Hydration Bladder Water Reservoir 1.5L-3L for Hiking Backpack

This bladder works for day packs or for backpacking. I’ve never had an issue with leaks. Easy to fill and easy to use. This holds a little less than 3 liters- more than enough for what I need. It’s a great versatile bladder. The fact that it has a valve to open and close and didn’t leak is wonderful. I like it so much I ordered another.

I needed a replacement for an older Camelbak and didn’t want to pay the brand name price. This was a drop in replacement at a fraction of the cost, and the bite valve works just like the OEM bladder.

Seems like good material and it works well. The opening is large, which makes it easy to clean. I'm not a fan of the handle. It's small and awkward and it feels like I'm going to drop it. Other than that it's a good product.

I was really glad to find this since I lost my original. It fits perfectly into my small Camelback and has not issues so far.

The 1.5L bladder was enough for a 13mile run With the bladder fully loaded, I was afraid it would bounce a lot but it wasn't that bad. Fitted perfectly with my hydration backpack. Quality bladder. I ran 10-13 with it about 5x and was satisfied with the bladder, length of the tubing and valve control. Highly recommended. Make sure to get the right size for your pack.

I was looking for a replacement bladder for my older Camelbak water carrier. The tube connection at the bottom of the bladder became brittle and snapped off, necessitating a replacement unit. The tube for this bladder connects to the bottom with an O-ring seal that snaps into place. This is a great design and makes storage and cleaning much easier. Before using my bladder, I heated a quart of water with 1/3 cup of vinegar to about 100-120F in the microwave and poured it into the bladder and sealed the lid and let it stand for 4 h or so. I then rinsed it out and did the same thing with a quart of water with 1/3 cop of baking soda. This will remove the buld of the impurities in the plastic that could give the water an off flavor. Thirdly, I then did the same thing with a quart of water and 1/3 cup or lemon juice. This is just an additional cleanup finishing step. All in all, the results were great. (NOTE: DON'T heat the water-filled bladder in the microwave, as there is a metal ring around the feed tube snap-on that will heat and could possible melt a hole in the bladder.) A TIP: Here's a tip for connecting the feed tube and the lid. Moisten the O-rings with water to help lubricate the seal and make it easier to attach and close. A thin film of olive oil would work even better. I also would recommend getting the cleaner kit from Amazon (Michael Josh Hydration Water Bladder Cleaning Kit). It also contains a bladder insert that makes it easy to expand the unit for drying after cleaning. The insulated sleeve for the feed tube is also a good addition and is also available from Amazon (Hydration Pack Insulated Drink Tube Covers).

I replaced my old camelbak bladder with this one. It fits great and no leakage. Would buy again. I the model camelbak I have is the aurora one. I got it back in 2015 so I wasn’t sure if it would work but it does.

Bought this for my wife so she could carry 2 liters of water on a hike. Her previous bladder was a CamelBak brand that held 1.5. Had that one since 2008 and it still holds up. This one was leaking the very first time she used it. It leaks at the port where the drinking tube is inserted. It doesn't leak around the tube though. When I took the tube out and put some pressure on the bladder, I could see water leaking out against the bladder, right beside the yellow release button. (In the picture, I put pressure on the bag for a few seconds and you can see the water which had come out from somewhere near the yellow button and dribbled down.) We put the bladder in a small garbage bag so that she could use it on our other hikes and it continued to leak. When we returned home, I wanted to get a refund for the bladder but through Amazon it showed that I needed to return the bladder in its original packaging, which we had already thrown out before our hiking trip. So then I took the "contact the manufacturer" route. I filled out the form on the Unigear website which said: "Please fill out the quick form and we will be in touch with lightning speed." Well, it's been 3 days and I've heard nothing. I think they meant lightning bug speed. I don't expect to hear anything from them at this point so I'm leaving this review. Clearly disappointed in both the product and their customer service. I should have known better since the picture of the bladder shows water spraying all around it. That is apparently the water leaking out. You can take a chance like I did and hope you get a decent bladder or just go with the tried and true brands that know what they're doing and have the integrity to back their product.

Bought this bladder along with a CKE brand bladder. See photos and videos. Pros: The mouthpiece does not leak at all, even when the valve is open. Nice wide chew on the mouthpiece. The connection to the bladder is wonderful - a really great button-release. Easy to remove for cleaning. The bladder material is supple, and construction seems durable. Cons: The filler cap and handle is very heavy, large plastic. I feel like it’s unnecessary weight, but it does mean that it’s wider for filling and the handle provides an okay grip on the weight of the full bladder. I would have preferred a lighter, smaller opening with a “ring” shaped handle rather than this giant piece of plastic. The valve on the mouthpiece is nice but I worry it will break over time. Not sure what the warranty would be on this. At first glance, this Unigear bladder is better than the similarly priced CKE brand bladder. Have not evaluated flavour and field function yet. Will update after a two day hike this weekend.

Muy bien. Me ha costado un poco montarla pero está genial para llevar en una mochila de las tipo camel. Muy contenta con la compra

I've owned this for a year now and it's worked great for hikes. The only shortcoming I have with this product is that the hook attachment detaches from my Osprey Daylite Plus quite easily. It's easy to refill and I didn't really notice any off taste. Overall it's a good product for the price.

Bought for a long backcountry hike. It fills really easily with the large opening in a river or lake. No leaks and has a quick connect hose. I put a water filter inline by cutting the hose in two. No squeezing or time-consuming filtering required. The mouthpiece draws the water very nicely from the bag even with the filter inline. The material is not really thick but has held up so far.
