Pros
Nothing,
Cons
Zero durability. Leave it in a hot car on accident and it melts together. A common mistake that only seems to ruin Nalgene products. Camelback left in the same car, just fine.

Review
Mine came with a Dakine pack. I love it. There is no taste what-so-ever. The material is easy to clean. The bite valve has good flow and does not drip. A very good replacement for other bladders.
