Platypus’ classic hydration kit with an updated bite valve.

Platypus says:  Ultralight taste-free, minimalist reservoir with high flow rate.

The original Platypus® water reservoir that became a backcountry classic, the Hoser™ is an ultralight, minimalist hydration system that delivers taste-free hydration with a versatile, durable design that makes it great for backpacking, thru-hiking, and day hikes. Updates include a new self-sealing HyFLO™ bite valve that delivers a 30% increase in flow rate, making it quicker and easier to hydrate on the go.

Our Verdict

Platypus’ Hoser has been updated with a new bite valve which has increased flow. The Hoser has the smaller opening so it’s much easier to fill it from a tap.
