The REI Member Dividend

The REI dividend is a unique benefit of membership in the REI co-op. It's comprised of your member refund—typically 10% back on eligible purchases—and/or your REI Visa® card rebates.

Each March, active REI members and REI Visa cardholders who earned a rebate receive a refund in the form of an annual dividend notice.

Only active members receive annual dividend notices. To maintain your active status as an REI member, you need to make net merchandise or shipping purchases of at least $10 per year, unless you joined that year. Member numbers are issued in one name and only that person receives the member refund. Your number can be used by others in your family, but it cannot be transferred to someone else.

Questions? Call us at 1-800-426-4840 for more about your dividend or its redemption.

Comments about Platypus Hoser 1.0L Reservoir - 34 oz.:

I just came back from a four-day hike in hot weather and can't say enough good things about this bladder with drinking tube. I was able to leave at home my in-the-pack reservoir which takes up a lot of space and is heavy even empty. Before I used the Platypus I soaked the hose and mouthpiece in a very weak bleach solution, then flushed it with clean water . . . no taste at all. I carried a spare Platypus bladder and a 3-liter collapsible, light-weight canteen. One thing, I'm going to super glue a string the cap of the spare bladder and tie it to the neck of the bladder so I won't worry about losing the cap.

Comments about Platypus Hoser 1.0L Reservoir - 34 oz.:

I haven't yet used it on a hike, but in testing I found a very unpleasant "plastic" taste in the water. The manufacturer never replied to my email, but REI suggested a baking soda treatment. Instead I used cider vinegar, and after 2 treatments that seemed to work.

Comments about Platypus Hoser 1.0L Reservoir - 34 oz.:

I like the quality of the plastic better than the Nalgene canteens, and I liked that the edges are rounded and much easier on the fabric of my pack. Don't like the small mouth though, it's difficult to fill at some water sources and it cannot accept a SteriPen.
I bought the on/off valve, which I think should have been included in the price, and also a bite valve cover to keep it out of the dirt and cactus thorns.
