This seems pretty well made and the material in the fleece-lined holder/pouch is pretty robust. The bottle itself is nice and strong, I worried for ages about whether or not to go for plastic or aluminium or steel, but with this the cup itself is metal so you can still boil water to make safe.and potable (remember to let cool before pouring in plastic bottle and pre-filter with clean handkerchief or clean material such as shemagh. but then use it folded over a couple of times as more porous material). The bottle nests neatly inside the cup which itself fit neatly inside the holder. Actually, possibly a tiny bit too snug as you have to wriggle it out, but the kit is still new so no doubt it will loosen up and wear in a bit over time - no problem tbh and no rattles,The popper closure is good and firm.I do have a few problem with this kit, though...1. The clips at the rear that would fasten the bottle holder to your belt or Molle is just utter pants, really fiddly and just doesn't look secure. They are quite thin metal slides that locate in a metal holding clip, and seem specifically designed to nip skin. I took of straight away and made a simple lashing rig with some paracord and mini-carabiners.2. I said above the cup fits very snugly in the holder/pouch. When getting it out I noticed that the edges are a bit sharp. I am not saying you would cut yourself, but it definitely required 10-20 mins attention with a fine file and wet/dry sandpaper to take the edge off.3. The little pouch on the front of the pouch is actually very small dimension, so really not big enough for a lighter for example. But I'm guessing it's just for sterilizing drops/tablets. I've put a dozen tablets in but it does not seem at all weatherproof with the top fastened down on that little pocket so had to wrap them in a little plastic bag first.It's pretty good kit, the clips on the back of the pouch are rubbish, but the rest feels very sturdy so far.

Seems to do the job.
It is about 750/800 Ml I would say. So pretty good size for work, or a respectable hike. No leaks and I personally don't notice any funny taste from the plastic ( Seen this has been an issue for some in reviews)Case seems well made enough. The Aluminium mess cup that comes with it is fine. A little tight to get the cup from the case, but I am sure the case will loosen with use. Personally no need for it, and I removed it. The case seems slightly loose with it removed. But no problem.My gut feeling is it could of done with being a cheaper. Not to say I have any issue with its performance, and will be keeping it.

Good product, good seller
Had this product before, will again. I replace the canteen with a nalgene oasis canteen, and have a "better" kidney cup. What's nice about this model is that it all fits properly. Most other kits don't hold my nalgene and a bigger cup no problem. Most holsters can't fit a canteen and cup. This is the one.Now....... If they could just keep the buttons from falling off ...

Reliable. Sturdy. Big thirst status.
Although cheap-looking at a glance, this canteen is pretty decent. I find myself using this item more often than not. The mess tin is pretty average and suits its purpose fair. Not a big fan on the metal clips on the back of the holder as it doesn't mix well with MOLLE and sort of free falls off whatever you attach it to.

I love it
The value for money on this is amazing.The cover for the canteen is lined with some sort of fur which really comes in handy when you want to keep your water cold.Easy little storage pocket for maybe water purifying tablets.I haven't used the metal cup yet but I will soon and provide an update.Overall 100% from me

Cover is good quality and I have 50 purifying tablets fitted in ...
Well made bottle and cover. Read reviews and checked the seal on the cap as soon as it arrived. Had to align the seal which was no problem. No damage to the seal as the cap was not fully tightened when I got it. Cup is a tight fit in cover. Cup heats up to much for you to be able to drink anything hot from it without burning your lips but I considered the cup an extra anyway. Cover is good quality and I have 50 purifying tablets fitted in the pouch. Longer delivery time but within time scale provided.
