I thought for a long time about buying a bladder, but now I think I needn't have hesitated. The product is very well made and fully serves its purpose. While marching, I no longer have to fiddle with reaching for a bottle from my backpack – it only takes a moment to drink and the water has no strange aftertaste. The braided tube looks very good. Great product at a reasonable price. I highly recommend it.
M-Tac Water Tank 2 l - Olive
A 2-litre water tank is made of durable and environmentally friendly PEVA plastic, which does not contain harmful BPA. The material used does not affect the taste or smell of stored liquids, making it ideal for both intense training and hiking.
Wide opening, easy to clean, measuring cup
The wide opening, closed with a locking strip with a practical handle, allows for quick and convenient filling and thorough cleaning of the water tank. The clear scale on the side allows you to easily check the amount of water inside. The hydration system is complemented by a hose with a bite valve mouthpiece, which allows for precise fluid dispensing. A fabric cover protects the hose from mechanical damage. The slim design with rounded edges makes it easy to insert and remove the water tank from your backpack.

The bladder is very well made, sturdy. The tube has a strong braid, which effectively protects it from damage. It is compact, so it will work not only in an assault backpack but also in a bike one. I definitely recommend it.
-
The bladder is fine, but it required a small modification. The product itself is great, especially at this price. The only downside is that with a strong press into the backpack, it leaks slightly—I had to seal it with tape. Apart from that, everything is OK.
-
The bladder looks solid. I was worried whether 2 litres would be enough for a mountain trip, but it turned out to be sufficient. The flow through the mouthpiece could be greater; you have to work a bit to take a drink. With mine, there are no leaks after filling, and the bladder fits perfectly in the Mil-Tec Assault Pack backpack (though the 3L would probably fit too). The hose has a solid braid, although it was a bit stiff at the start and hard to position. I have no comparison with other products, but for this price, I can recommend it to friends with confidence.

The bladder is solid, 2 litres is the ideal capacity. No leaks after filling, I carry it in a storm panel on my vest. The tube is soft, well stitched and lays well. The scale is a nice addition. The mouthpiece works very well. For this price, the workmanship is at a high level, I recommend it.
-
For me, the M-Tac 2L bladder in Olive is the best choice for mountain hikes and extreme runs. It passed the test even during demanding OCR-type competitions and in the field. It's a pity you can't buy items like the mouthpiece separately. I recommend it to everyone.
-
Great bladder for trips or patrols. Fits various backpacks. The materials used are of high quality, and the mouthpiece is tight and easy to use. I recommend purchasing it.
-
The bladder works well, though there is a slight plastic smell, which is probably normal with a new bladder. You need to be careful with the tube—on one of the trips it accidentally unscrewed and started to leak. After removing the bladder, the tube unscrewed completely, so it doesn't hold very tightly.
-
Overall, I'm a bit disappointed – for similar money, the Decathlon bladder seems better, with a more reliable lock and a better-designed water opening. This model looks like cheap plastic – though it doesn't alter the taste of the water or give off a smell. The downside turned out to be a leaky valve at the base, which kept leaking despite tightening, but the shop exchanged it for a new, tight one without any problem. The mouthpiece is practical (cap, solid valve, the possibility of disassembly) but quite large, and the water flows slowly – you have to work harder than with other models. Plus for the sheath on the hose, although it slightly increases the weight and sometimes needs to be stuck down at the base, it's still a cool solution. The bladder is easy to dry, although sometimes drops remain near the inlet – a paper towel or hairdryer comes in handy here. To sum up, I wouldn't buy it again – despite a few advantages, it just seems not very sturdy, especially the lock and hose attachment point.
-
This bladder is very capacious, which comes in handy when travelling. The tube with cap and lock makes it easier to use, and the simple assembly and disassembly make it very convenient. An additional plus for the thermal insulation on the tube, thanks to which the water isn't too cold. The securing strip, valve, and special mouthpiece are further advantages. It has a few minor drawbacks, for example, it takes a long time to dry after washing, but overall it fulfils its purpose perfectly and is definitely worth recommending to anyone looking for a solid and comfortable water bladder.
-
I haven't tested it yet, but it looks sturdy and well made. Despite the thick tube, it isn't heavy, and I really like the sheath on the tube. I appreciate the top closure because my previous bladder with an opening on the side wall was hard to dry, so I hope this time it will be better.
-
An interesting bladder – this is my first one, so time will tell how it performs. It is compact, fits the backpack perfectly, with a hose covered in pleasant-to-the-touch insulation. The closure system is also interesting; we'll see how the material holds up.
-
At first I was sceptical about camelbaks but I decided to give it a try and ordered this model. Now I think it's a great solution as I no longer have to take a bottle out of my backpack to drink. The price-to-quality ratio is very good. I recommend it.
-
Overall I rate it positively – it has good capacity, a secure closure at the top, a lightweight design, and a plus for the sheath on the tube. The downsides include the need to carefully tighten the tube – it's hard to check this without pouring water in first. An extra valve before the bladder connection would be handy, but at this price it’s not a big problem.
-
I tested it on the GSŚ – the first day it served as a tap for washing, on the following days for drinking water. The difference compared to taking a bottle out of a backpack and constantly removing it is huge. The bladder doesn't leak. The water could flow a bit faster.
