Can the pump be removed from the bag and be used separately? I've heard some of them are attached via velcro?

Yes，they can be removed from the bag.Because of the velcro，some of them can be fixed or sepatated as u wish.

Thus one is attached via velcro, and I don't think can be removed from the bag.

Its definitely strapped in by Velcro but you can definitely remove it from the bag

Yes. The bladder is secured by a Velcro strap that is easily undone to remove the bladder when needed.

While I Haven't tried it, it looks like it can be unscrewed from the bottom. The tube would then be removable for cleaning.

No, with retractable cord unit totally separate you can change bag if needed. I don't understand why you should even be concerned since the change filter indicator is clearly visible on top of the unit.

Sorry if my review was confusing. The bag IS reusable. It hangs off a plastic loop and hook. The tubing comes out of the bottom of the bag and attatches to the nozzle. The bag is just to hold the water until you unclamp the tubing. What I meant was the bag didn't seem all that sturdy. I am afraid it will rip one of these days when it is full of water. The plastic just looks a little flimsy to me. Hope this helps. Overall, I am very happy with the system and would wholeheartedly recommend it to other women. All the bag does is hold water, but if you needed to clean it, no problem.

nope - it's permanently attached and the individual "bags" cannot be detached.

You can open the bags on the bike by releasing the top-side tie strap; it's not instant access but the bags don't seem to budge when accessing them unless you load / unload alot of stuff. Then it's just a matter of rolling the top back up and re-attaching the top tie strap. Probably a 5 minute process, so not terribly convenient for accessing water etc. but definitely doable if you need to grab a jacket or something. There are no dedicated carrying straps on the bags so yeah you'd have to improvise with the velcro cross-over straps or something.

Yes. Certain packages of the storage bags come with adapters to allow you to pump directly into the bag. The storage package will say on the outside whether it includes two adapters or not.

I'm not sure what you mean by closed system. You can pump into the bottles provided or attach another bottle to the adapter. The pump itself is not contained within a carrier bag but separate.

No. That would result in failure of the pump. The suction accessory if meant to be used as a fume extractor and an SMD part pick up tool with the included attachment. You must buy a solder pump or wick to remove solder.

Yep - you just can't attach it. You just pour it from the bottle when you're done. I have a Medela pump and these bags are far superior. They hold more and never leak.

In principal the bag does not have to be attached when using the blower. However, I have never tried it without the bag, simply because I switch between suction and blower modes frequently.

Yes you can just remove the base Blake on the pump and secure with U clamp or strap around pump.

yes there is Velcro. so if you wanted to, you could remove the bags entirely from the rods

No, I bought it since it was recommended to go with the Ziploc bags and it doesn't attach. I don't know what to do with it?? I used my vaccumn cleaner hose instead and it worked great!
