Mountain Products Men's Citro 30 H2O Hydration Backpack

GREAT Back pack!

We love these bags, my husband uses this one during many day trip adventures. It fits well, holds 3L of water and had tons of storage. We LOVE the included water system which is easy to fill, doesn’t leak if threaded correctly, and dries much better after use than similar systems. The only CON is that there is not a great place to put hiking poles so that they are securely fastened. There is a spot, but it’s a little too loose and causes movement of the sticks while walking. Great product overall!

Bought as a gift for my wife no complaints yet. Y’all know how wives complain. Lol

Used this for a recent trip to Europe. Kinda small, but not my only bag. ITA and Ryanair had no problem with it as carry-on. Relatively comfortable when lightly loaded, even without the use of the hip belt ... which is a bit too small. The hip belt (that is, the padded area with the pockets, not just the webbing with the buckle) should be adjustable (longer) and the hip belt pockets larger/longer. Hip belt pockets too small to fit my hard clamshell sunglasses case. Other than that, pretty good. Materials held up well.

This was a Christmas gift, so 6 months old, but with the weather just now warming up in our area, it has only been used about 3 times. The water bladder has separated from the hanging hook and has a significant leak. When I tried to get online help from the company website, I was issued a "repair" request and asked to send it back for "repair" at my expense. This is a defective product, not a repair. I have sent a separate email to the company about it, so we'll see what they say. We splurged on what should have been a really nice pack, so very disappointed so far!!

Nice and practical the only thing that id missing is the rain fly

This is our third Gregory Pack! I got this one in green for my son who wanted a day pack that was lightweight and included some specific features. He wanted pockets on the hip belt and a spot to stow his sunglasses. It was also important that it have an air cushion between the pack and his back, as he didn't want to be dripping with sweat on long hikes. He has done two pretty serious day hikes with his new Citro - 9 and 12 miles. His verdict - the pack is so comfortable and lightweight that he hardly notices that he's wearing it. The 30-liter Citro is roomy enough for all his gear - extra clothing, camera equipment, and snacks. He loves that he can store his important stuff in the hip belt pocket like his bug spray, lip balm, and phone for taking quick photos. The hydration bladder is very easy to clean and hang up to dry, which is another useful feature. His only minor complaints - the zippered portion of the hip pockets are too small for his big hands, and the clip on the sternum strap is to small. These are minor details and in no way dealbreakers. This is an awesome pack. We have always been happy with Gregory products, and this is just another example of a fantastic design.
