HydraPak Flux - Collapsible Backpacking Water Bottle (750ml, 1L, 1.5L) - BPA Free, Ultra Light, Spill-Proof Twist Cap

Currently work for an Amazon Warehouse. Having to go through security sucks eats up a lot of you break/gets you stuck in the mob of traffic. I use this to avoid that along with the safety vest I purchased with pockets. With this folding flat it fits in one of the pockets of my vest.Great bottle, not plastic/ rubber type taste. Stands on it's own pretty well pretty much down to the last drop of water. Has a twist lock for water flow as well as flip cap for mouth piece. 100% going to get a few of these to just keep in the car/ throw in a backpack. Also purchased their collapseable water storage in the 1L size as well. Phenomenal product as well even more compact. Harder to drink from. But that's also not it's intended purpose so that's my own fault n

I've tried a few soft bottles because there's a lot of appeal for camping and traveling - lightweight and doesn't take a lot of space, and sometimes I don't want to deal a hydration bladder. They've all had issues - nalgene's would fall over due to the large wide mouth cap, platypus's were impossible to dry, and so on.Found an older model of the hydrapak flux that I loved for camping and traveling - super easy to pack, came in at least 32 oz, stood up on it's own, and was easier to clean and dry. Didn't super love the twist cap as it didn't release air so it would eventually flop over as you drank, and the mouthpiece was exposed.After the wife made me carry her double walled bottle during skiing, I bought her bottle, and I feel it's been improved in every way. It's wider so there's a more stable base, they added a flip cap, and now when you untwist, it lets air escape so the bottle will expand back to it's normal shape. They added clear plastic on the top so it's easier to see how much liquid is left, and the cap prevents leakage while still in the open twisted position. The loop is longer which makes it easier to roll up as in the pictures, but it's still kind of a pain, so I rarely do it. I'm undecided whether to just steal my wife's bottle, or buy a second one for myself. I still use hard bottles for sizes about 32 oz as I'm unsure of the sturdiness of the larger sizes, but this has become my go to whenever I want to take some water out of the house.

I was looking for exactly this for awhile, but am surprised they didn't advertise a couple key features, such as it being free standing regardless of fill level. It's also easy to fold up and store as well as taking the Katadyne BeFree filters, as somewhat expected. The only bad thing is it does impart a plastic taste into what you put in it, though I don't have to worry about flavored drinks contaminating a filter with the stock cap. It does make a good compainion to a BeFree water bladder for longer outings.

Used this on a couple recent trips, it’s been great with how compact it can be when traveling around. It initially had plastic taste to it, but clean it real well and the taste will go away. Would recommend!

I bought this to go on a trip! It was amazing. Collapse easily to put in bag before entering airport. Does not leak and the hook was a nice component as I attached it to my bag while hiking. Soft container so not heavy. Perfect for on the go!

First off, I would give the product category of collapsible water bottles 5 stars. Seriously, taking this thing travelling has been so much more convenient than the 32oz Nalgene that I use at home. I wish I'd discovered these earlier. And to its credit, this particular water bottle is built strong, doesn't leak, and can squish up very small when it's empty.Unfortunately, the HydraPak Flux fails in a very important area: any water left inside it for more than 30 minutes tastes like cheap plastic. This is something I'd expect from a free promotional water bottle, but not one that costs $10 more than a Nalgene. I will probably return this, and hopefully HydraPak can tweak the materials they use to fix this particular issue.

perfect collapsible bottle, stays rigid enough and packs away very light and small , great minimalist kit piece

I washed and rinsed the bottle several times before using on a hiking trip. The water in the bottle had a chemical taste. Could not get past the taste but it collasped well for travel.

Habe mir die Flasche zum Wandern gekauft. Sie ist sehr leicht, was grad bei längeren Strecken positiv ist. Die Bedienung ist einfach durch drehen der Kappe und der Verschluss auslaufsicher.

La bouteille est meilleure que mon Katadyn Befree.J'aime la bouteille qui est demi rigide et pliante en même temps.Facile a ouvrir et boire.Il existe un filtre a eau 42mm avec la même fermeture. Même diamètre que le Befree.Un peu plus de poids pour la facilité de boir

Die Flasche ist von der Qualität (Stabilität) her super! Hat 4 Tage Festival durchgehalten.Leider schmeckte das Wasser nach einer gewissen Zeit immer extrem nach Plastik / Gummi. Super ekelhaft

Molto comoda da portare nei trekking. Una volta finita l’acqua, occupa poco spazio nello zaino, e, ovviamente, è molto leggera.

Excellent produit léger pratique
