Review: Big upgrade from Sawyer mini - Went on a backpacking trip recently and took a Sawyer mini. It took so much time and effort to filter water that it didn’t seem sustainable longterm. After reading multiple reviews of available filters, this one sounded like it would fit my needs the best with its 0.1 micron filter, filtration speed, and ease of cleaning. I also happen to prefer using my 2L Hydrapaks over any of my other bags and I dislike the idea of lugging around Smartwater bottles, so the fact that this will fit the Hydrapaks I have was a huge deciding factor. When I tested the filter at home I was very satisfied with the flow rate. I’m also excited to not have to worry about back flushing the filter, even if that leads to a shorter filter life overall as some users have pointed out on various forums. The Sawyer can now live in my daypack for emergency use since it works better when drinking directly from it rather than trying to filter larger volumes of water with it.
Review: Excellent product - Katadyn BeFree will keep you completely safe, drinking from any stream or lake while hiking or backpacking. I bought the filter separately, then paired it with "Hydrapak Flux - Collapsible Backpacking Water Bottle (1 Liter)". Have used it 3 times while hiking. It works, is easy to use, has excellent flow rate, weights next to nothing and clips onto the back of my day pack. My goal was to reduce weight; with this, I don't have to carry as much water on longer hikes; I refill my 1 liter Nalgene bottle with this filter.
