Osprey  Kitsuma 1.5 Hydration Pack - Women's

I used this pack all summer and would rate if 4.5* if I could have clicked on a 1/2 star! I found it significantly easier to fill and to clean than the other popular brand I had used for the past two years (which drove me crazy trying to fill and clean). My only issue is that the magnet does not stay "clicked" - it falls off immediately and the tube hangs and swings. Also, I purchased the cleaning kit but haven't found it too helpful. By only putting water in the pack it is easy to dry out with paper towels and hanging it. A good buy for the price point - nice and light and a small pocket for essentials.

I like the Women's Kitsuma for walks and hikes because it is small and comfortable. It leaves my hands free to use trekking poles. I'm barely 5'2" and have had spine surgeries so I don't like weight on my low back. It's not easy to put the hydration bag in the pack properly and to secure it, but worth it once it's in place.

The backpack is very small and is basically a cover for the hydration pack. The tube is attached to the bladder and doesn't hang properly pn the side. The magnet slips down the tube and is awkward. Returning without using it. My phone doesn't fit in the tiny pocket. Very disappointed. There are better and far cheaper options than this.

Unable to disconnect tube at the reservoir to clean it. Sales associate tried also and it is like cemented into the reservoir so in short order there will be black scum growing in the tube. On multi day bike tours this would be a terrible hydration solution. Returned the item.

I bought this online without getting the chance to look at it/try it on before purchasing. I decided against it before actually getting to use it, so I can't comment on the durability/actual practicality of the item. My goal was to use this item for taking on hikes. I chose not to keep it because A) For the size of the pack, it has limited pockets/spaces for extras to take on the trail (one tiny pocket). Osprey sells another product with way more pockets that would be much more useful and versatile I decided to go with instead. B) The straps are either too wide or curve in a way that they were rubbing on my neck and the material is not soft. This is before moving so I can only imagine how much that rubbing would bother me once I got hiking. If you're on a budget and just need to bring the water, keys and wallet, this might work for you.

I was looking for a VERY minimal hydra pack for biking when I'm pulling the 3 yo in the trailer (Since anything I want to carry can go in there I wanted least weight on my back) This is even more perfect than expected, as the pocket can hold my samsung Note 4, card holder (a Jujube Be Charged) sunscreen stick and my car and house key, making it great for short trips on my own as well. And it's so light and airy, I love it.

My daughter loves it! Wears it around house, skating an bicycling.

Great, lightweight! Wish small extra pocket was a little bigger..
