Found a good deal on one of these, about to pull the trigger- Just wondered if anyone has used one of these.

They sort of look goofy but practical..... almost as practical as a water bottle.

Less water storage than most other hydro packs

Less comfortable than most other hydration packs

You have to wash it every time you use it

It holds the water higher on your back than most systems (more strain and poorer center of gravity)

No insulation so your back gets cold or hot fast and then the water turns body temp...

You sweat against the bladder.

No other storage.
