Top Notch Hydro PackMar 13, 2010
I'm not going to go into a lot of detail other than to say that this bag is everything you'd expect from a Camelbak Military grade hydro pack. The size and convertible design isn't for everyone, but I like options and light weight. Remember, it only has 952 cubic inches of cargo room. If that's all you need, then this pack is what you need.

This is the one!Feb 04, 2010
This product is terrific. I am a college student and this bag also works for my needs. This works great to fit one large text book and two 8x11 inch note pads. It also stores a recorder, PsP, and headphones. I will also use it for intense day hikes in the PA wilds. This is one all around Badass bag!

Best backpackMay 04, 2009
Hello.
I bought this one to replace a backpack
I was issued in my unit. (I am in the Army
and I am deployed to Iraq)
It is definitely better than what my unit
issued to me and I would not own anything
else! Also, the service was fast and there
were no defects with the packaging or the
product. Thank you.

 So Far, So GoodMay 09, 2008
This backpack is very well made. Very. You could fight a bear with it. It is also very comfortable to wear, but I haven't worn it for extended distances yet.
The only cons I have are:
- I thought it would be larger. I go to school part time and thought I would use this as a book bag as well as a daypack, but I can only fit one or two (small) textbooks in it. This is definitely not a weekend or bugout bag.
- When broken down to the base pack containing the reservoir, there is only one small pocket. So, if I am biking or running, items much larger than a wallet or phone can not be carried without putting them in the compartment with the reservoir. Since I don't want to damage the bladder, I choose not to do this.
If you want a CamelBak for exercise or hiking, though, this one may be for you. If you want to use it for school as well, go a little larger. It is perfect for afternoon hikes, trail running, or biking.

Durable and Versatile, High QualityMar 08, 2007
I'm a grunt (infantryman) in America's armed forces. Last deployment to Iraq I had this well-designed Camelbak product to carry my water and other essential gear on missions, such as MRE's, demolitions, etc. This pack stood up to not only an entire 7-month combat tour (constant operations in urban terrain), but also all the months of grunt training prior to and following.
Great water capacity (3 liters) with large bladder mouth for easy, quick refilling (a godsend when compared to the small mouths of standard issue Camelbaks). Has two attachable compartments (a larger one and a smaller one) that can be easily removed/reattached depending on your needs. There is also a long, thin zipper pocket on the base of the pack where a camouflage tarp thing is stored (is supposedly for covering the Camelbak to make it camouflaged). I tore this out and threw it away early on as the pocket is more useful empty than filled with that ridiculous tarp thing. There is also another small compartment underneath this one with two zipper openings (on either side).
The bladder compartment is unzipped from the side where one's back rests against the pack when worn. The padding there is great, as well as the padding of the straps. The straps are well-made and durable. I've flung this pack off and on hundreds and hundreds of times in stressful situations (usually grabbing it up solely by the right-hand strap), and the straps haven't torn off like most packs' straps do.
There is also some MOLLE weave (military people will know what this is) in two or three places for you to attach other gear.
The only negatives with this Camelbak are two minor things: 1) the clip for the cross-chest strap was so fragile that I think it broke literally after a few days of "grunt use", and the strap length is not adjustable. This is minor though because I never needed to or wanted to use the strap, and 2) the zipper for the compartment that holds the bladder becomes difficult to operate smoothly after several months, it begins to require some muscle power to jerk it unzipped/zipped. This, also, is minor because that's just the way zippers are, and it's such a great Camelbak that this is easily forgiven: I'm surprised that the zipper actually still functions after all my abuse!
Of course, the bladder wears down after several months of heavy use (I'm just now needing to replace it), but that is normal and to be expected.
Overall, an excellent piece of gear for military types. Rugged, long-lasting, functional, especially for grunts who need to carry a bit of extra gear (not too much extra though). Honestly, I love my Transformer, though it's almost in tatters by now! Still, I'm taking it to Iraq with me AGAIN (with bladder replaced).
