The opening decides whether it dries; the liters only decide weight · review
A 2 liter reservoir sold with a hose, whose listing publishes the capacity and then almost nothing else — no opening type, no film, no valve, no fittings and no weight.
A BPA-free material, a 2 L and a 3 L version, an ultralight and compact description, a claim of resistance to cracks and leaks, a drinking hose, a large opening for filling and cleaning, and a statement that it fits into any rucksack.
Ten of the eleven columns this hub compares on are empty. No opening type. No fill port width. No hose diameter and no hose length. No bite valve. No shut-off. No coupling. No film named beyond BPA-free. No seam construction. No weight.
That is not an accident of this page. It is what the maker chose to publish, and printing it as a row of unanswered questions is more useful than describing the listing’s adjectives as though they were measurements.
Two liters, and a 3 L version. Capacity decides how much water you carry, and it is the specification the maker is clearest about. Everything that decides whether the reservoir survives a season — the opening, the film, the fittings — is unstated.
If you are replacing a reservoir, ask the seller two questions: what shape the opening is, and whether the hose detaches at the reservoir. Neither is answerable from the listing, and both change how the thing is lived with.
The American Amazon catalog lists it with no seller standing behind the entry.

A listing is not an offer: the reference exists on these stores, availability changes daily.
| Capacity | 2 liters for the version listed; the maker states 2 L and 3 L versions exist |
|---|---|
| Opening type | Not published on the listing — a large opening is claimed, without saying whether it is a slide, a screw or a clip |

| Bite valve | Not published on the listing |
| Shut-off | Not published on the listing |
| Quick-disconnect fitting | Not published on the listing |
| Film material | Not published on the listing — described only as high-quality and BPA-free |
| Seam construction | Not published on the listing — described as resistant to cracks and leaks, without saying how it is joined |
| Stated cleaning method | Not published on the listing — the large opening is stated to ease filling and cleaning, and no method is named |
| Empty weight | Not published on the listing — described as ultralight, without a figure |

It sets no bound at all. A slide top and a 40 mm (1.57 in) screw port are both described as large by somebody, and only one of them can be turned back and hung to dry. The word without a shape or a width is not a specification.
The listing does not say. It states a drinking hose and says hydration on the move is easy, and it never names a valve, a lock or a coupling. That is a question for the seller before ordering.
No. Not published on the listing — a large opening is claimed, without saying whether it is a slide, a screw or a clip. What the listing does publish instead is the capacity: 2 liters for the version listed; the maker states 2 L and 3 L versions exist.
7.8/ 10
Two liters, a hose, and a listing that leaves ten of eleven questions unanswered. The gap is the finding, and it is printed above rather than filled in.
A replacement reservoir where the pack sleeve is the only constraint and the details are worked out on arrival.
Amazon reports what buyers took in the month before this page was last checked: at least 1,000.
The figure is a floor, rounded by Amazon, and read through Keepa — it says what buyers picked, not what a maker claims.
Specifications: the manufacturer sheet for camping and hiking gear and the matching Amazon product page. Prices and availability: Keepa. Every figure on this page names its source.
3 L reservoir · two hoses, summer and winter · cleaning brush included · opening type not named
A 3 liter reservoir that ships with two drinking hoses and a cleaning brush — three items other listings sell separately — while naming neither the opening, nor the film, nor the valve.
Best for: Someone who wants the brush and the winter hose in the same box and will find out about the opening on arrival.
Two 2 L reservoirs, 70 oz each · 4 in screw cap, the widest port stated here · bite valve with on/off · quick-release with auto-lock · a neck gaiter supplied · no bore, no film named
Two complete reservoirs for sixteen dollars, with the widest fill port stated on this shelf at four inches — on a page whose wording appears under two other brands in this same group.
Best for: Two people, or a spare kept filled in a fridge, where price per reservoir is the whole decision
≈ $16
2 L / 70 oz · leak-resistant cap · ergonomic fill handle · one-handed on/off lever on the tube · self-sealing bite valve · high flow, unquantified · no bore, no film named, no weight
The same two shut-offs and the same cap as the three-liter Crux, with an ergonomic fill handle the larger one does not list — and the flow claim left without the number the 3 L gives it.
Best for: A day walk or a ride where two liters is enough and the reservoir has to be lifted and filled one-handed
≈ $30
