This thing is great. Have the 10L size. I pack it with me whenever I travel. Recently took it to Hawaii for two weeks and filled it up at the hotel for free and then filled up water bottles in the room, so didn't have to pay an arm and leg for bottled water at stores. Also fill it up before car travel, especially in the summer you never know when you need a couple gallons for your hydration or someone elses. There is a fish tank in the house, I could care less, but the 2 gallon tank has to be changed every two weeks. Filling this up at the store for $0.25 per gallon is better than buying two gallons at $1.40 each. When car camping, it also makes a decent pillow.

I bought these to replace some old blue plastic jugs I bought at Walmart. These water bladders are a huge improvement and a very well thought out and designed product. My old blue jugs took up a lot of space and were rigid. The Watercell is flexible and you can fit them in tighter spots in my truck. I opted for the 20 liter as I could just fill with less water if I wanted a smaller foot print. Once you purge the air the Watercell conforms to the amount of water in the bag. It has an adjustable carry handle as well as an adjustable cap. The cap can be used to dump a large amount of water quickly or you can use the smaller spout which you can adjust the flow of water with. There's also a shower spout you can add to the cap so it doubles as a solar shower. Kind of expensive but well worth the money. The only thing I don't know yet is how well they will hold up over time. If they end up being durable, I plan on buying more and using this for my primary water storage for camping and overland trips.

The design is good however the water takes on a very strong plastic taste. Washed multiple times and left to air for over a week still strong plastic smell and still taints the water.

I needed something that I could put water in for motorcycle camping so space saving was an important feature. I can bring more water than I need, hang it from a tree to dispense, and once empty roll it up and put it in my side bags. No bad tastes and no leaks.

I recently went on a Grand Canyon trip and these worked great. I like the gallon capacity with the option of filling it half way if need be. They seem to be well made.

I use R/O water at home and you never know what you're going to get out of a tap at an AirBnB or cabin rental... even though the should be safe, it doesn't always taste great. So, I got this so I could bring my own water on weekend getaways. It has worked great. It is easy to fill our water bottles with it laying on a counter top. There is no taste added to the water either. I am very pleased with the bag and would highly recommend for an easy to use portable water system.

Works as it shows which makes me happy!It fills with 4 liters of water and makes it easier to carry it than having smaller reservoirs or water bottles. I did this before with the Platypus 2L bottles before and that made it harder to carry since they were not boxy like this one and therefore changed the center of gravity in your pack while hiking.You need to twist the water dispensing part to let the water flow out which seemed like a sketchy mechanism at first because you might accidentally unscrew the actual top, but that hasn't happened to me yet.I like how they included a shower attachment. I have yet to use it, but am happy that's always a possible option if it ever needed. Definitely a super niche use for me at the moment.Cons:* It certainly isn't the easiest/comfortable to carry. I saw some other reviewers modified theirs to make it easier. I might have to do it in the near future, but this isn't the biggest deal to me.* It does taste pretty plasticky/rubbery at first like others have said, but that wears away after you use it a few times. I washed it a little at first with soap and vinegar, and used it like 2-3 times and it was pretty much gone after that. Perhaps fill it with water and let it soak for a day or so, and repeat a few times and you should be good.Overall I am quite happy with this product! I have only owned it for about 2 months so far, but will update if I have any other issues crop up.

This thing was surprisingly bulletproof. I took it on a long and pretty brutal 800 mile plus Backcountry Moto camping trip (socal BDR), and had this in my panniers often times completely full, and dropped my bike right on it multiple times and this thing did not pop. Very impressed. The shower feature and handle features are very nice I used it a lot by hanging the bag off the handlebars of my motorcycle and then using it to wash my hands. I only wish there was a way to actuate the nozzle cap with one hand because right now you really have to use two and so oftentimes with this led to was me having to turn on the nozzle then quickly go away grab my item and wash my hands and quickly go away again put the item down and then come back to the nozzle and close it which would waste a lot of water. Also something to hold a bag with one hand steady while I can free up my other hand to handle whatever water source would be really useful as currently it's a two hand operation and oftentimes a two person operation to fill it up with say another unwieldy object.

This is very durable and useful - love the pour handles, it makes it very ergonomic. It doesn't smell funny, if you are concerned. The cap is easy to undo, and the shower option is excellent. Great product!

Ich muss sagen...bereits beim Auspacken hat mich der Artikel begeistert. Das Material macht den Eindruck, als könnte man es nicht zerstören, ebenfalls die Schweißnähte. Die Watercell hat viele Durchdachte Features und Aufhängemöglichkeiten. Das Wasser hat für mein Empfinden keinerlei Fremdgeschmack angenommen. Ich habe die Watercell bei Outdoor-Wochenenden von Freitag bis Sonntag genutzt. Bei sparsamem Wasserverbrauch waren die 10 Liter perfekt dimensioniert. Den mitgelieferten "Duschkopf" habe ich nicht getestet, da kommt m.E. zu wenig Wasser durch. Für mich eine klare Kaufempfehlung
