No way to drink
This has no instructions and is nothing like the old valves. Old valves coild just bite and drink. Am I supposed to make a first cut/slit to the valve to have it self-seal on first use? What if I cut it and it is wrecked. Why is there no way to just use it? This is not intuitive or it is a total defect.

Did not fit the bite
Did not fit the bite valve I bought it for. Highly displeased with it as it was advertised especially to replace previous models with compatibility.

Hydration Heaven
Glad to get this exact replacement. I do a lot of hiking and finally wore-out the original.

I ordered 2 of these
I ordered 2 of these valves; one to replace the one that cracked at the top of the lip and started leaking. It was a good thing I ordered the spare because the first one I put on was already cracked...in the same place, and was immediately leaking. Since this seems to be a consistent weak spot, maybe you should consider working on improving the design? So far, the "spare" is lasting OK. Maybe the design will be improved by the time it cracks:)

This valve allows excellent flow.
This valve allows excellent flow. When you are engaged in high intensity activities like Mountain Biking and trail running you need to get water quickly and easily. This bite valve fits the bill and generally doesn't need the shutoff valve to be closed in order to stop flow. It is also easy to clean.

Good flow bite valves
These bite valves work well. Great flow and don't leak when they have not been chewed. I recommend buying extras if you have kids using them. My kids tend to break the seal easily so they leak. For the kids I use the Evo shut off valve and that has seemed to solve the leaking issues.

Quality Product
I did not want the high flow bite valve, but I did want the bite valve cover which only fits the high flow bite valve. I use it and it's fine.

Works great.
Got it right away. Works better than my old original valve and as promised. Fits tightly with no leaks.

Good redesign of the classic Platypus valve
Glad to see a one piece design for the bite valve since I was tired of taking the old valve apart for deep cleaning. Good to see that this is also a bit cheaper. I've lost more of the old valves than have ever worn out and I'm glad that these replacements are more reasonably priced.
