Fossil Outdoor Inc. BōnDry - Hydration Pack Bladder Dryer, Made in The U.S.A, Patent Pending, Original Hydration Bladder Dryer. USDA Certified Biobased Product

I mean, it works. But no better than a towel

It is not often that game-changing backpacking gear comes along, but I think now is one of those times. If you watch hiking vids on YouTube, youve probably seen the ad for the Bondry from Fossil Outdoor (bone dry - get it??? fossil??? haha). It looked pretty gimmicky to me so I did not click on it the first 5 times or so - but I finally watched the ad, checked out the company, and ordered one. Summary Findings: 1. It DOES work. You can put the Bondry into a hydration bladder and just put it away (even with the hose attached). It wicks the moisture up and evaporates the moisture away. 2. I HATED having to cut it up the middle to have it fit a bifurcated bladder (e.g. Camelback) - BUT, Fossil Outdoor now makes the WishBon which comes pre-cut. (They also have a Lil Bon for the smaller openings on many collapsible bottles / dirty bags. 3. All of the Bondry products are made with biodegradable / recycled materials and are machine washable. 4. The company is the real deal. The inventor is a hiker guy with a background in earth science and engineering running out of his home. Customer service over and above.

This thing makes drying out my osprey pack a breeze! It didnt work on my sons cheapo pack because the fill hole isnt big enough, not this products fault.

I have some off-brand reservoir with a pretty small circular opening. Ive tried other reservoirs or drying systems but it always just collapses on itself. Until now, Ive been drying it by leaving it on the counter for several days, propped open with a combination of kitchen utensils and the tubing. My Bon Dry came last week, I tried it for the first time on Sunday and I swear it was dry in under 4 hours. Because of the opening I had to bend it in half to fit inside, but it still worked. Im so excited to get my counter space back!

I don’t know how I lived without this thing. So much easier and effective than wadding up a bunch of paper towel and trying to dry bladders by hand. It super quick and neat. Gives me added piece of mind knowing that I’m getting all the moisture out so I’m not worried about bacteria buildup. I was thinking it might smell funny after awhile, but 4 months in and nothing.

I received my initial bondry from amazon and it had a foul smell after putting it in the bladder. I contacted bondry via their instagram account and asked if it should have a smell. They informed me to return the one to amazon as this was not the first time they have heard of this issue. They sent me one out directly from them. I have dried the bladder 3 times now and have 0 issues. Great product does the job. Customer service is top notch. I will be buying again!

Bought three for our hydration bladders and they work great. Maybe try and figure out a tube insert while you’re at it ❤️

This product is amazing. I have been eyeing it for awhile, but was hesitant to spend the money not knowing if it would work as advertised. Well, it definitely works as advertised. No more worrying about not being able to get the bladder completely dry, and no worry about things getting moldy. I absolutely recommend this product. **One wish is that they offered a much smaller version to fit inside my soft flasks (8oz) which have a very small opening**

Perfect, thanks!

Great time saving solution! So nice to shorten my routine before and after bike rides. Works very well and the company supports their product well!
