    Strengths:    Great size, holds lots, fits well, easy to fill and clean.

    Weaknesses:    fastener for the bladder side is a small piece of velcro. Why isn't there a zipper here???

    Bottom Line:   
    I really like the Roost and would recommend to other users looking for a 2L or 3L pack with storage. Pockets are good sized and I have not had any problems with the bite valve (non leaks). It sits quite comfortably on your back, even when fully loaded and allows for good airflow on your back. The product could be improved by putting a better fastener in the bladder side, but everything else is great.

    Strengths:    Reversable bladder makes it very easy to clean. bite pull/push is very nice. It has lots of compartments that can suprisingly fit a lot of things (keys,knife,tools,extra clothes)
    also, it doesn't taste like plastic or rubber
    great construction, very breatheable. hydrapak really does their research on these paks.


    Weaknesses:    none thus far, got it very cheap on ebay

    Bottom Line:   
    The street camo is unique and a very cool color. the bag has reflectors on it that you cant really see with the naked eye which is also another nice feature. the chest strap along with the belly strap make this fit on you very nicely. overall this is better than any camelbak in my opinion.
