Is the water pouch removable and can you empty the water out of it?

The pouch comes partially out but is still connected to the tube. I have never tried to completely disconnect it. I don't think it is designed to be removed. I drain it after a run by turning it upside down and draining it into the sink. It seems to work okay but it is never completely dry. I wouldn't put anything but water in it.

Yes it is removable for cleaning. After removing the heating element, you can remove the interior reservoir. You have to give it a slight tilt to clear the drain valve

Yes, the lid and the top bay is removable. I clean it every couple of weeks

Yes. The filter is washable and removable. The water will not stay as fresh if the filter is not used.

Yes it is removable. When one looks toward the back of the tank, there is an obvious tab that is a grip of sorts. It removes quite easily; however, be sure you wash it by hand otherewise the dishwasher heating element can warp the plastic.

Water reservoir is removable and this one did not leak - only after placing it on the machine did it leak.You will need to pull it out.

no it is not removable. If you want to wash it, you have to use a washcloth and scrub it.

Yes... it is pretty easy though... You need to shut off the water valve that feeds the tank and unscrew from tank, flush to remove the water. I used a cup to scoop out the rest of the water then used a towel to get anything left. Unscrew the two screws in the bottom of the tank and lift the tank off. There is rubber gasket between the tank and the bowl- DO NOT THROW THIS OUT as this kit does not come with that gasket. Using the provided tool take off the large nut that holds the valve on. replace the valve and use the tool to tight. Put the other gasket in the hole and place the tank on the bowl. Fasten it with the screws and tighten. Replace the water intake. That's it... if things go well, about a half hour.

The water bag is removable. I suppose you could use it as a backpack. However, it would be very small.

Yeah, the bladder is in its own pocket with a Velcro strap hanging it from the top of the bag. It's very easy to remove for cleaning or to give extra storage when you don't need to carry that much water.

cannot remove pouches. but straps can be removed, and should you choose, you can break down to a single shoulder strap and wear as more of a sling.

Yes. There is a removable portion of the holder which collects the water. It is easy to take out and clean... and just as easy to put back.

Yes it is. You have to give the top a good tug to get it off, so dump as much water out of it as you can or you will get wet!

It has a self contained, removable water container as well as a hose attachment so that you do not have to use the water container.

I haven't tried, but I wouldn't. I think the instructions say to just wash it normally and wring it out to remove most water. Than you store it damp in the tube it comes with.

The pouches can not be removed, but if not in use can be cinched flat by the adjustable straps on the sides, bottom and front. The shoulder straps are adjustable to any body size and shape. More of an overnight combat bag, not much room for a hydration pack when full..

You can, but the pik is so hard to remove that I, with arthritis in my hands, can hardly remove it, so I leave it open and have a paper towel that I draped over the top of the reservoir wet and when it dries, it shapes to the top and dust/debris can't get in. I wish the pic came out easier - but we do what we have to do to make things work.
