Camelbak of the 2020s

Have been a fan of Camelbak since the first bought the Classic decades ago. This is the smallest bladder I have owed but perfect for my needs. The technology has vast improved since my last purchase and really like the upgrades - new valve system & the cap is easier to open and close. Very impressed!

CamelBak 1.5 L Reservoir

I have a previous version of the CamelBak 1.5 L reservoir that doesn't have the quick connect hose fitting. Really like CB 1.5L for day hiking and use with CB Mule for biking. Decided to order a spare. Quick hose connect is a nice feature. I fill, turn cap counter clockwise 2 turns applying pressure to seat and turn clockwise with pressure to close. I turn upside down and suck air out of reservoir via hose, and lay cap side down to test for leaks. Only use for water and haven't had any issues with mold. I purchased an aftermarket hanger that works well to dry and store reservoir after I drain both reservoir and hose and wipe remaining water out of reservoir with a paper towel.
Perfect for festival

My old got moldy forgot to clean it out. But this served it's purpose
Very difficult to clean

I purchased this for my child, going mostly by size for a youth. I should have done more research to find the reservoir types that open fully at the top, like a ziplock bag, so that they can be washed and hung to dry. It's just physically impossible - no matter which way you hang the bag, gravity will pull moisture downwards and in this design that means water drops go from one edge inside the bag to the opposite side's edge inside the bag. Ours molded in the corners and edges within a month of use despite our best efforts.
Not as good as hoped

As regular hikers, we appreciate having reliable water bladders. This one is difficult to securely tighten and tends to leak. Additionally, the design makes drying difficult resulting in a long drying time. Overall, not happy with this style bladder.
