This is very clean and easy to drink. Its worth having this for $30 and being able to reuse daily for literally months as opposed yo spending money and carrying around water bottles constantly. But get THIS one, the black 550. The orange one is impossible to suck water out of

To be noted I used this with a Hydroflask; While the idea of this is great, the execution isn’t all here. I’ll start off by saying the good; the filter does what it’s made to do - filters water just fine, but that’s about where the good ends. The hydro flask straw doesn’t quite fit into the filter, doesn’t matter if you get it wet, spit on it, take it out to dinner, it just wasn’t going in there without some kind of accusation of wrongdoing. I had to whittle mine down to just the right size just to finagle it in there and now I can’t drink my amazingly filtered water down to the bottom of the bottle. This wouldn’t be a problem as I would typically just unscrew the cap and throw back the rest but the filter leaves the inside of the water bottle smelling like something I’d found in a swamp after three days of looking for a missing person. Kudos to the filter because the water coming out of my straw tasted like pure springs, but take those kudos back for befouling my hydroflask in such a manner. Naturally I’d want to rid myself of this product but remember the little whittling I’d done to start this adventure, well that’s basically rendered my straw useless without the filter so here I am, waiting on a new straw, careful to open my water bottle in public for fear of being caught with the dead body inside.

One never knows what might show up in their tap water. Using this product gives peace of mind to drinking tap water.

It is meant to replace the previous filter of the same nature. It is doing what it was designed to do. I have no complaints about that. I think the filter should not cost the same as, or very near, how much it costs to buy a brand new bottle with filter from this company, but besides the value, it is great that this filter only needs replacing (in my case) once to twice a year, so that cuts down on cost, compared to other filtered water bottle brands that will need changing every more frequently. Remember to order way in advance. Like before you really need to replace your filter in your bottle. I am hoping it was just due to the holidays but it did take a bit longer than it should have just to deliver it. If I had ordered it too late, I might have been a bit more upset about how long it took.

We use normal tap water. About a bottle a day passes through the filter. It was clogged in a week.

Great for airports and bike rides

Ive purchased this four times now and it never dissapoints. I have also purchased the water bottle that goes with it 3 times. The water tastes great. I love how long it lastes. I trust this filter over any other one. If you are looking for a filtered water bottle this and the Epic Nalgene OG are the way to go. There is even an outdoor filter.

Wish it was cheaper.

These filters are so easy to use and replace. Love them!

Just get it
