Summary: Very Good Product
Comment: I have used this on one trip so far. Works very well and water tastes good. I used the nalgene bottle and bottle adaptor is made for it.

Summary: Refreshing
Comment: I used this on a long backpack trip in the Idaho Sawtooths. It was hot and dry, and the snow melt was dwindling. It worked extremely well. The only reason it didn't get 5 stars was because it took a little longer than my last water purifier to pump the same volume. I was cooking for 5 and pumping more than 1 1/2 gallons at each meal was tedious. I will get another one before my next trip to speed the process.

Summary: I dont know what everyone else is talking about . . .
Comment: After researching water filters for a few weeks i thought i found a real winner with this one. I bought it for a week long canoe trip to a pretty untouched place with very clear, clean water. There were 8 of us on the trip. After three days and only about 10 or 20 gallons pumped, the pump was getting very difficult to pump. After 4 days, it was completely impossible to use and we had to use iodine. I am very careful with my gear, so i know this was not abused. The water we were filtering was clear and we stayed far away from any sediment or sand that would have clogged the filter. I am switching back to chemical treatment.

Comment: Are you a blue stater who doesn't like to evacuate when warned?
Well I suggest maybe you might want to invest in some device to obtain fresh water so you can live through the coming fresh water shortage. Or you could simply leave when you supposed too.
Red stater waiting on the apocalypse? Fresh water could be handy in case you end up in purgatory.

Summary: great water filter
Comment: I have tried several water purifiers as I frequently travel to third world countries with questionable water supplies. I like this one better than any other I have used. You can quickly get a good quantity of water' It is much easier to use than the Xstream that I used to use.
I have used it all over the world. It is easy to pack and easy to use. It is a winner in every way.
