Product Reviews
Rated 3 out of 5 by from Not what I thought I bought this to use as a bladder while hiking and sip off a hose. Thought I think you can use it for that the top also opens up with just a typical zip lock where the handles are. I had planned on putting it in my backpack lid but am not willing to be the guenie pig tester to see if the zip lock leaks. They either have to improve the zip lock or eliminate it and filling would go through the screw off cap. I sent this back with out use.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Has anyone on the Platy payroll ever used the Platy Water Tank? I purchased the 6 Liter Platy Water Tank a few years ago. I 'zipped' the first couple of times, but after that, not possible without a rubber mallet. This has been EVERY Water Tank I have seen since the Sierras and the AT. It leaves it, literally, a bucket, not a tank. Web-wide reviews reflect this as so the inablilty to work with Sawyer products. But virtually everybody is using Sawyer, Smart Water bottles and CNOC. Can Platy staff not figure this one out?

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Awesome for car camping/road trips I've been using these reliably for over a decade and, while the zipper closure does take some care and maintenance, the function of having a couple of these to stash around in empty voids is amazing. For the people who can't figure out the zipper: Keep it clean and use a silicone lubricant to assure a good and easy seal. The silicone does tend to attract dirt, so apply it and then take a pass over the track with a paper towel to remove excess lube. To get that seal, start at one end and pinch. You'll feel it seal if it's lined up properly. Then work your way down the closure, giving a slight bend between forefingers and thumbs, like you're bending a stiff wire, until you feel that subtle "click" of the seal. If you force it and it's not lined up, you can damage the track, so take your time until you get the hang of it. In no time you'll get it and it becomes totally easy. it's worth the learning curve. These things rock. I still have a few that are at least ten years old.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from ^6 Liter closure does NOT seal I purchased this based off of my experience with Platypus products in the past which I found superior to most anything, especially on the subject of durability. Unfortunately, the bag seal quit working after 2-3 times. It will not close at all now, rendering the bag useless while still new. As with ever having to send anything back, the postage was just not worth it. After the last 2 years of backpacking, I have yet to see one of any size that 'works.' Lots of gripping and complaining, same issue. Platy let us down on this one. Bag material I will still consider the best in the hydration areana, but.........

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Nice bag. Easy to load and flow out too. Be sure to secure the seal on the "zipper-like" closure. Nice carrying handles.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Poor Closure Design Almost impossible to get the bag to stay closed. We had a half mile hike from the spring to our camp and lost almost all the water in the bag. We had two new platy water tanks and both had the same issue.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from When you don’t need/want to a carry a 5-7 gallon water can Writing this in the midst of a 24-day mountain bike trip. I purchased on a whim hoping it would fill the void between a typical MSR dromedary and the ole Reliance water can. So far, the platy has performed flawlessly. I heeded the advice and pre-treated the zip with food grade mineral oil and we haven’t had an issue, easy to close and stays sealed. The flat bottom is great for picnic table convenience. Holds enough water that we aren’t making a million trips to the spigot (3 adults and 1 toddler). When we pack up to move on it rolls small and disappears into the kitchen box. A welcome addition to a car camping set up for a small crew.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Warning: Do not pack in a backpack This product will not function in a way that makes it useful for packing. It will burst and lose all your water. The product description should probably say something to that effect. It's a shame, because they could fix it easily by sticking a slide lock on it and attach the handles to the slide lock. Their sister company has a similar product, MSR DromLite bags, that does function in this way, but tastes terrible. It would be very useful if they came up with a backpacking water storage solution with more than 3L capacity.

Is the outlet spout a standard water bottle size threaded opening? Was thinking about using this as a large capacity dirty water reservoir and attach a Sawyer mini filter to the outlet.

Asked by: Mazzo
Thanks for the question! The Platypus Water Tank has a standard size pouring spout. Anything with a standard size bottle thread should fit on the pouring spout :)
