Exactly what I needed
My old one broke while trying to clean it and this replacement was perfect it’s a different style but it’s better.

Works well
Replaced osprey bite valve on hydraulics bladder with this one. Both work, but the gregory is easier for 18 month olds to use in the poco child carriers.To make replacement easier just run under very hot water to loosen up the hose.

Need to turn the bite valve piece 45 degrees to use it
I needed to replace my original bite valve because it got a tiny hole in it. I'm hoping this one is a bit more durable. This bite valve has a different on/off toggle than the original, so it's taking a bit to get used to. Other reviews mention that the orientation of the slit in the bite valve is wrong. I have to agree. The slit is cut so you have to hold the tube perpendicular to the ground and bite, instead of just lifting the tube off your chest strap and drinking it with the tube at a 45 degree angle. To fix this problem, I just twisted the light blue bite piece a quarter turn and it's now oriented closer to how I can drink from it easily. By doing that, the light blue bite piece doesn't fit tightly on the tubing, but so far, it hasn't leaked. Not sure why they engineered it that way, but at least I found a workaround. If it starts leaking because of the quarter turn, I may have to lower my rating.

Not the one I needed
After using this, I realized it isn’t the one sold at REI and on Gregory’s site. This does not have the magnet built into the bite valve but has some kind of attachment that has no instructions on how to install it. It is also so difficult to get the water flowing at first. I wouldn’t recommend this.

Bad redesign!!!!
I don't understand why they had to redesign the original magnetic valve, this one is way more bulkier, feels like I'm sucking a lollipop. The closure system requires you to use your entire hand to open it and close it, in order to get the water out. You have to squeeze the valve with your mouth a certain way for water to come out, its the weirdest valve I've ever tried, and I have tried several. It's bulkier in weight and it doesn't sit well on the backpack , even with the added magnetic attachment which you have to put on and off when cleaning your bladder because the actual valve is NOT magnetized. Not to mention this is a pricier item than the original one.😒
