Compact And Lite

Size and convenience is very important when packing lite. Great product for the price.

Got Only 1 Trip's Use From It.

Very disappointed. Used it once and it worked fine. Next trip a month later, couldn't get a drop of water through it. I read that I should soak it overnight, but it didn't help. Summer trip, so it did not freeze. I can't afford to buy one for every trip, so I'll look for another. If there was a zero rating, I'd give it that, so I'm giving it a generous 1.

Easy To Use....works Great

If you are searching for the best filter for a great price, stop searching and purchase this. I've used this filter to drink water from lakes, rivers and cattle troughs over the last year. I do recommend using YouTube to learn the proper water bottle hack to help you on your endeavors.

Perfect For Clean Water

Small yet mighty!! Compact and effective. Perfect for every camping and survival need. Safe water fast. I use this when I fish and camp, buy a couple!!

Great Product.

First thing I did was test this with some pod water (after charging the material with clean water). To trust your kit, you must use your kit. Product works as advertised, even on some nasty pod water. Will be buying more.

Excellent Compact Size, 100k Gallons!!

Great product, just don't let it freeze, that will damage the filter. Claims to filter up to 100,000 gallons which is really mind blowing for this item's compact size and low price.

Nice To Have Just In Case

We bring these on long hikes. We haven’t had to use them yet but I feel better knowing we have them and needed water. I highly recommend adding this to your backpack.

This is an awesome little tool to have in your pack for that emergency need. It’s compact and ready to go. It offers piece of mind that you will always have clean safe water.

Small And Light

Great for a thru hike. Would just make sure to have an extra squeeze bag. Although mine has not broken I have heard stories and did get myself an extra!

Great For Peace Of Mind

I got this mini water filter for backpacking trips. Now I can hike in the backcountry with confidence that I can drink out of the lake and not get sick from any nasties that may be in the water. Lightweight and small so it doesn't weigh down my pack at all!

Perfect Size!

I bought this for my upcoming JMT hike. I like the size and the simplicity of it all. I am also happy that it fits on a water bottle for ease of use. I’m excited to put it though the ringer on this 20 day trip!

Came Quick! And Works Amazing

Glad I bought this one, I looked around and window shopped for a few days just to be sure. If caught in a pickle without water this is the one to have. I tried it out immediately when I got it and it works amazingly

Great Upgrade!

I bought this a few months ago to lessen the space both my lifestraw or Platypus filters took up. This is a great piece of gear, and perfect size for those who wear tighter running packs like Salomon skins for longer runs!

Good Product

Order came quickly, and in good condition. Have not tried the product, nor do I have any way in testing the water when I do. Will probably order again

Dependable Filter

Bought two of these, and just used them on a 3 day backpacking trip. Worked great and as advertised, it’s a little small, but that’s what you get with the mini filter and it’s meant as a weight saver. There’s a few options of how you can use this filter. You can directly connect the filter to a smart water bottle (probably works with other bottles too) to drink straight from the filter. You can use the included 16ox bag and filter the water into your smart bottle (my preferred method), or you can drink directly from the 16oz bag. We used it at our base camp, but I wouldn’t suggest using it this way as you’ll be at the water source for at least 30 minutes trying to fill up your bottles and bladders. Would recommend a larger filter system and reservoir for campsites, this one is for filtering water while hiking in my opinion. I would buy this again, it’s a great product, and I only knocked 1 star because I had a really hard time filling up the 16oz bags past 2/3 full which made the filtering process take longer.
