3.0 out of 5 stars Lighter than Dromedary but not as durable., June 26, 2010

This review is from: MSR DromLite 2L Hydration Resevoir (Misc.)

I've acquired two Dromlite x4 liter bags brand new and used them for about 6 months each before leaking. They are good bags, but after heavy use both of mine of started to leak water from the cap-seam in a way that I have concluded I cannot fix on my own. The Dromlite has no nylon sling going around the body of the bag like the Dromedary. This has caused me to usually lift the bag off a surface by the cap. Overtime the cap-seam wears and will fail. I conclude that the same would happen to the Dromedary except the Dromedary is more commonly lifted by the nylon sling. I've never had any cap-seam leak issues with the Dromedary through similar abuse.

My overall experience is that the Dromedary is more durable if you're going to be using it a lot. I go hiking and climbing all the time and the bags work great. I recommend the Dromlite for light activity; for camping as a shower or to wash hands/face.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Lightweight Water Carrier, March 6, 2006

This review is from: MSR 4L DromLite Bag (Misc.)

I bought a few of these MSR Dromlite bags for a backpacking trip to desert country in Arizona and Utah. Knowing my routes would take me through some mostly water-less country, I needed something lighter and more comfortable than than my old 2-liter plastic pop bottles.

The Dromlites are well made water storage bags. Though reasonably tough, they are lightweight, un-insulated, and made of fairly thin material, so aren't meant to resist being stored outside the pack or dropped on sharp objects. Instead I carried them inside the backpack where they can be protected and insulated from excessive heat. I found the 2-liter and 4-liter sizes to be the most useful, not to mention easier to fill and pour. The soft, conformable design of the bag was a lot easier to pack than the old hard plastic soda bottles and made for a more balanced pack. You can attach a modern supply tube and bitepiece to these water bags, but I didn't use that for my trips. I just poured the water as needed into a smaller insulated water bottle on my waist.

In short, the Dromlites worked well and lived up to expectation. I can recommend them if you're looking for tough but light water storage, especially for backpacking.

5.0 out of 5 stars hydration bladder for BIG MEN!!, August 13, 2011

This review is from: MSR 4L DromLite Bag (Sports)

Ill start by saying I'm a big guy and I use alot of water. During the summer I can use 3 litres of water a day( cooking + drinking). So I need to have at least 6 litres to start with. To last 2 days before a refill. This bladder stands up to the punishment or the trail pretty well, although I did have a small leak on my last trip( msr customer service is great). I use this with the hydration hose so I can drink from it while it is inside my pack. The only complaint I have is the size but hey!?!?how much snapper can 6 litres get
