Reviews

Fantastic bags for our needs.

"Fantastic bags for our needs. Tough and compact! Nice to not have to baby the bag knowing it is more puncture proof and scuff proof compared to other clear lpastic bags that get ruined easily from rough handling. This bag is a big step up from the other plastic bags we have used. Great for canoeing and general camp use. Will be buying more of these in different sizes as needed. I would rather carry a small amount of weight for the durability factor these dromedary bags give. Thank you MSR! Great product!"

Does the job. Burly, handy.

"It leaks. Bought new everything for it but it always leaks if the cap is facing down. If the caps facing up all good."

"They're on their way to our son's guiding operations to be used for water drops and hauls through dry camping areas in the Grand Canyon. . . true lifelines."

I've been using these for

"I've been using these for nearly a decade now, mostly the heavier duty ones to cache water along some of my longer backpacking trip routes. Or even to take water to a camp site for cooking, showers and more. These bags have been great over the years, even the lightweight ones. Cleaning is easy enough, and I store them in my freezer between uses. Great bags."

Scott B. (5/5)

The functionality and durability are

"The functionality and durability are superb! And the only reason I am giving these bags 3 stars is strictly because of the potent rubbery/chemical taste that leeches out into the water. I've tried cleaning them out using a few different methods to help with the bonus bag taste, but so far no luck."

Stacy C. (3/5)

This purchase was for my

"This purchase was for my husband. He needed a hydration pack with the Nalgene compatible lid because his old lid cracked. He's is very happy with the quality of the Dromedary. However, I had to purchase a non-MSR aftermarket DIY lid with hose (straw) from a seller on eBay since there is no longer a converter kit available from MSR. The weight, durability, grommet system and Nalgene adaptability make this an ideal hydration pack."
