Why We Like The Salomon Soft Reservoir
We're not camels, but the Salomon Soft Reservoir helps us store water like one when we're out there running and hiking. Available in either a 1.5 or 2-liter size, each reservoir shrinks as we drink, minimizing bounce and maximizing our pack space as we conquer the trail.

Review Summary
Customer Images
Here's what customers have to say
The product has a large capacity and is easy to clean, but some users have experienced issues with leaks and durability, with the reservoir developing holes or splitting at the seams. The drinking tube is also reported as being too long and difficult to route properly. While some users are satisfied, the overall quality control and consistency of the product appears to be mixed.

Served me well but eventually split at the seam
This is a good quality reservoir but I used it a lot and it eventually split at the seam mid run. There are other brands out there but I found the 90 degree angle on the hose suited the adv skin 12 pack I had better and didn’t kink the hose.

Excellent Reservoir
This reservoir is easy to fill at home and even easier on the trail than the Camelbak products I've used. It secures snugly to my Active Skin 4, and the bag's design keeps the reservoir from sloshing. It's a snap to clean; overall an excellent product for my money!

i've used my 1.5L-reservoir a few times now, and i love how easy it works on the trail and washes up at the sink.

Perfection
Easy to fill, easy to clean, works in non solomon hydration packs, no leaking. The hose is the perfect length. Easy to drink from - just bite down and water flows. I bought this to replace a 1.5 liter bladder in a Nathan QuickStart 2.0 4 Liter Hydration Pack. The internet suggested it wouldn’t fit. It fits perfectly and works a million times better than the bladder that came with it. Can’t recommend this enough.

Not Designed for ADV Skin 12
I thought this was marketed as being compatible with the ADV Skin 12, but the hose connection is pointed the wrong way, and both the connection and the whole bag do not easily fit in the right spot in the pack. It works, but it's awkward and requires the hose to be looped around itself in the back. I would appreciate more clear compatibility information on the product pages.

Fantastic product
I am very happy with this product. I love the way the top seals and how easy it is to open; its large fill mouth is very handy.

This is the style you want!
I bought the adv skin 12, so why not get a bladder too! In all seriousness, I have had many bladders and things the style you want. The entire top opens which means fast filling and EASY cleaning. I modify all my bladders for quick filling. The only downside is that there is not a “screw on” type fill cap for filling it that way, but that isn’t a huge deal. And the way I modify mine this isn’t an issue what so ever. Get you one!!!!
