In my recent trip to Big Bend, I needed a way to fill up an 8 gallon, roof-mounted water tank on my vehicle. There's a faucet available at the ranger's station but you can't run a hose to it. I got these to fill up my tank quickly and easily.The plastic is fairly thick. These would be fine for a few weekend trips assuming one was careful not to drop them while full or hit a sharp tree branch. I really like that you can fill it up, freeze it, and then use it as drinking water and keeping stuff cool in a freezer. I may pick up a few more of these specifically for hurricane season down here on the Texas coast. Overall, they worked well but there isn't anything extra special about them that would make them 5-star. They are a practical and useful 4-star water bag.

Basic water bag. I always wish the openings made it easier to clean, it also seems like eventually it's disposable. That being said they lay flat, so flat I put an empty one in my fridge and didn't notice it was there. I use as back ups if I need to load up remotely where there might not be as much water. I don't know if I would trust it long term, but for something that has almost no weight or space it doesn't hurt to have for emergency. It's plastic, like a lot of similar water bladders or an oversized clear, capri sun.

I filled one up and used it around the house and garden to see how they hold up. So far so good. The handle is comfortable enough and the bright yellow top makes it easier to keep track of. I will store the other 3 for emergency, unless I end up using it for our adventures to the desert. I'm not sure how they'll hold up to a lot of handling but I love the convenience of them so far. The one I use for the garden is kept with water in it because I haven't figured out a way to prop it open enough to completely dry it.

These lightweight bags are easy to store and easier to use. They take up no space in my car camping kit, but are great to have on hand. The handle is comfortable and makes transporting a full bag easy. The tightfitting lid ensures that water doesn't spill everywhere. The thick material seems durable, although I wouldn't want to drag it over rough pavement. Glad to have a good solution for 'dry' campsites!

For the price, a 4 pack of these are a good value. They’re super space saving and take up virtually no space at all when empty. Be sure to pull off the plastic ring around the cap so they close properly. They do offer a really nice sturdy handle.While they are space saving, that means they’re fairly thin plastic. I’d advise against using these for any sort of activity where they could get punctured, such as backpacking.I’m personally reserving these for emergencies as the seals on these bottles are heat seals. I expect them to wear out over time with extended use, as similar items do that have these types of seals.Finally, they are a pain to clean, and can easily grow mold if you don’t let them fully dry. Since they tend to want to close back up flat, it’s easy for them to retain moisture, so be thorough with letting them dry when not in use!

The most striking feature of these water bowls is their collapsible design. When empty, they fold flat and take up almost no space, while the 2.6-gallon capacity is perfect for short trips or storing enough water for a group. They hold a good amount of water, but they are not too bulky, so they are easy to carry or store in your vehicle.

These are amazing as I was looking forward to try these out. I happen to live where tropical storms, hurricanes and power outages are common during parts of each year. I purchased years ago 6 plastic water jugs for hurricane preparedness. They came in handy but they are also 5 gallon water jugs and take up a lot of room even when not in use.This is why this emergency product is so much better. When not in use they fold flat so they don't take up any space. I can't do that with my water jugs. When full they stand up. They hold less water but they don't weigh as much. The top grab handle is easier to pour out water when you need it. I did not try freezing the bags as the product says you can because I don't have a freezer large enough for that but that's another bonus to freeze water and when the power goes out you can still drink ice cold water. Highly recommend this product if you have to deal with natural disasters. I wish I had these during Hurricane Helene.

These put plastic chunks in our water I definitely don't recommend them.
