 Fantastic for everyday use Aug 05, 2005
By Tracy G.
I am 7 1/2 months pregnant and this hydration pack is a lifesaver. I am able to take long walks without having to carry bottles of water with me.
The size of the pack is small enough, not to be a bother but large enough for my keys, ipod, cell phone and a snack. This is a great deal for all of the features you get.

Awsome hydration pack! Aug 11, 2005
By Jane Austin
"cwreenactor"
I absolutely love this hydration pack. It has one large and two small pockets and two quick stash pockets with the bladder in its own seperate pocket on the back. The large pocket has a space for a discman and has a headphone port. Furthermore, the bladder is very high quality and I haven't had any problems with it. The bladder and hose are easy to remove so it is not hard to clean it. Also, this pack is offered for a much better price than the overpriced camelbaks. All in all, I think that this pack is definitely worth the money that I paid for it.

 Good pack, bad storage vessel Jul 21, 2006
By Galen Richards
I agree with the other review about the reservoir. Both the connection to the hose and the seal around the opening are poor. I replaced my reservoir with one by camelbak. The bag itself is great. Took it to burning man last year and it worked perfectly. If you're going to get this bag be prepared to buy a new reservoir.

Reveiw after use of Outdoor Products Ripcord 2-Liter Hydration Pack (Graphite) Aug 13, 2006
By Kurt Lowther
I feel this product provides excellent Value for the occasional biker or hiker. While cycling I had filled the hydration bladder with water and ice. I also carried a 32oz bottle of gatorade in the the storage area. There was still plenty of room for snacks, keys, clothes etc. I purchased a Sony portable CD player/radio. It fits nicely in a special compartment with the headphone wires coming out of a slot in the top of the pack. My radio also has a remote which is great when you don't want to stop.
The chest and waist straps hold the pack comfortably yet snugly to your body so it is not bouncing around.
The one negative that would report is the bladder hook. Rhis is what the bladder suspends from inside the pack. I think it should have a latch or something to hold it more securely. What I found is that when you take it off, it may slip off and then it pinches the hose which prevents drinking. I try to keep the velcro that closes that part of the pack close to the hook. This seems to help.
Overall though I am very pleased with my purchase.

 Nice bag, leaky reservoir Jan 15, 2009
By Ben Kwok
"BioWorkZ.com"
I like the size, design and pricing for this bag. Unfortunately, upon my first time using this bag, the connection to the reservoir bag was leaky. Not a little leak, but within a few minutes, there would be a puddle where the bag stands. I tried switching the tube around and it still leaks. Then I found out that the connection to the mouthpiece leaks as well. I emailed Outdoor Products but got no reply. I resorted to lining the connections with saran wrap to fill up whatever gaps were there to cause the leak and that seem to fix the problem for now. Now I'm considering a Camelbak instead.
