Here's what other sites are saying:

From Backcountry.com:
"In nature, blowfish inflate their bellies to look ferocious. Your belly doesn't make you ferocious. But the CamelBack BlowFish Hydration Pack 3L does endow you with the really cool capacity to make your pack much larger with one simple swipe of a zipper, so you can carry enough layers, equipment, and food to evade even the most frightful predatory fish on the mountain bike trail. Fill the Blowfish's large three-liter water reservoir for a long day of climbing the trails, and either keep the pack in sleek mode or expand it out to a carrying capacity that rivals that of the Death Star."

"This is a nice size hydration pack. I picked it up so my girlfriend can carry some of the load while backpacking. 3 liters of water, plus more. She likes the added room and the pockets on the inside. A perfect pickup for our travels.

In time we will buy a larger pack for her, and only use this one for day trips."

"I bought this particular CamelBak because of its simplistic design. Other hydration packs had either too many pockets for my needs or were too expensive. I have been using it for about a year, and use it every time I set out on a day hike or mountain bike ride."

"I have been pleased with my CamelBak hydration pack. I wanted somthing small enough to not be in the way when I am biking yet big enough to use on light hike. The BlowFish is the perfect answer because it the main compatment can expand when you need more room or collapse when you want less bulk."
