Sawyer makes some great filtration products. I've tried several other Sawyer models (Micro, Mini, Select) and filter brands (Katadyn, Platypus, MSR) and the "full size" Squeeze filter, combined with a generic 2L plastic water bottle, is still the most reliable water filtration system for backpackers who are weight conscious. Sure, there are other brands, or other Sawyer models that weigh less or boast higher flow rates, but 10 years later, this is still my go-to filter.Pros: Widely available and reasonably priced wherever you're traveling to hike in the US. Easy to use and maintain, adaptable, and has a suitable flow rate.Cons: Be careful not to let it freeze up. The mylar squeeze bags are garbage. It's better to attach the filter directly to a 2L bottle or pick up a Vecto wide-mouth storage bag from CNOC, thread the filter onto the bag and squeeze filtered water into a 2L bottle. This is not ideal for group use due to the flow rate, but it can be set up as a gravity filter from a large storage bag at camp.

We used this on the water spigots at a campground that had reported elevated levels of bacterial contamination. It worked perfectly with one caveat. We had to make sure not to turn the water on too hard or the connection would pop off. But as long as we did that it worked great and no one got sick. It was really nice to have that added protection even when the all clear was given to use the water again.

Hace unos años, conocí estos filtros por Motoroad Angels, pues estabamos en una campaña en un lugar alejado. Me parecieron lo máximo. Hoy estoy viviendo en un lugar donde el agua no es potable y este filtro ha sido la mejor solución. Lo super recomiendo. Debería ser parte de nuestro kit de viaje (en caso de llegar a necesitarlo).

I live kinda remotely so I keep a backup water supply just in case I lose my well or electricity to run the well pump. My daily water tastes fine as long as it goes through my treating system. But lose that and the taste is not the greatest.I’ve used Sawyer filters for years for backpacking and camping. But this one allows you to collect a lot of water in a short period of time. You don’t have to worry about bacteria, E Coli, salmonella giardia, etc.If you keep up with the news, we are now drinking and eating micro plastics as well as the “forever chemicals” (PFAs). Sawyer takes care of the micro plastics but not the PFAs, nor heavy metals, arsenic, lead, much less taste and odor.You really need a carbon filter to take care of all of that crap. So I buy the Platypus Carbon Element here on Amazon and place it inline but downstream of the Sawyer filter. (See photo as example of setup)What you get is some of the best tasting water you’ve ever had. You can forget about buying bottled water anymore. I highly recommend this setup to anyone and everyone.

I recently bought this for my trip to mexico. I went to a number of hostels and the filter fits most of the taps that I was exposed to. I find it easier to use the filter without the adapters. It may not be the right thing to do and may wear the product faster, but that is what I found.

Before purchasing my BlueVua, I used Sawyer for years.I used it at home to avoid purchasing bottle water. Sawyer is always in my luggage, when traveling [ especially to foreign countries ].If a Sawyer mini filter can purify lake / stream water, it is one of the best options to eliminate the purchase of bottle water.
