Camelbak Cleaning Brush Kit

Love this product

I’ve had my eye on this camelback cleaning kit for a long time and finally bit the bullet and bought it a couple weeks ago. This set works great and seems like it will last for years to come with regular use. I could not be more pleased with this product.

I feel so clever for having spotted and purchased this little set! Okay, I have a vice and a pair of pliers. Yes, I could have bent the wire on my other bottle brush myself. But THIS brush doesn't scratch the bottom of things. It actually BRUSHES and, accordingly, CLEANS! And the little tiny brush on the long wire! Brilliant!

I bought this because I own one of CamelBak's better bottles with the bit valve and straw. I got sick of using cotton swabs to clean out the mouth piece, so I bought this after I saw a reviewer had used it for such.It works okay, but I don't even use the larger brush; it's easy enough to get a dish sponge in the bottle part.As for the small brush, the gauge of the straw is slightly too large for the brush to really clean, but it does reach all the way through (unlike cotton swabs). I use the brush part (it comes out of the long tube easily) to clean between the twist-ridges on the cap. Regarding the mouthpiece, it's impossible to use. I'm convinced the mouthpiece is designed to be thrown away, which disappoints me.I'm sure it'd be much better if I'd been using it for a reservoir, but frankly, I like my bottle better. I just wish Camelbak made a device specifically for it.

Works great! Does a very detailed job.

The brush is too short to clean the inside of the bag but an "OXO Good Grips Bottle Brush" does amazing at cleaning the bag. The long brush cleans the tube very nicely and I like this kit just for that. They should make the large brush with a longer handle and not so wide of a head. I have since traded my OXO for my camelpack and the brush from this kit has been downgraded to everyday kitchen duty so it now washes coffee mugs and what not.

I have a Camelbak hydration backpack. I use it for water or a sugar-free electrolyte drink. I usually just rinse the reservoir, let water run through the tube, and clean the bite valve with soap. (I've read that using soap on the reservoir & tube will leave a soapy flavor...ew.) But I know that occasionally a good scrubbing is necessary. This product is easy to use and fits my Camelbak perfectly! By getting this product BEFORE my Camelbak got gunked up with lots of mold, I'm hoping to avoid that altogether. After using the scrubbers I just washed them in the top rack of the dishwasher.

Easy to clean with this product. I recommend it.
