Katadyn Micro Microfilter Water Bottle

Katadyn's new Micro Water Bottle Microfilter is a convenient, easy-to-carry, easy-to-use water filter. The Micro's filter lives inside the water bottle, so you've got a lightweight, maintenance-free means for acquiring clean water anywhere. The Micro's bite valve keeps you safe with a hands-free, no leak method for drinking from the bottle. The carbon filter and pleated cartridge provide improved taste, fewer chemicals, and a manageable flow rate. The Micro removes most microorganisms including bacteria and Giardia.

Bottom Line: Travel lightly and maintenance free with the Micro Water Bottle.

meh. Buy a real filter instead

Got this for solo backpacking trips in order to save weight. The only time this really works is if you are always near a water source, the filter takes up so much room that there is not much room for water in the bottle and you have to filter into a nalgene anyways. Me and my bro were doing this, and the filter busted, so it wasn't filtering at all. We had to boil and then drink lukewarm lakewater..yuck. bottom line, get a real filter.

Excellent!

I am very happy with the Katadyn Micro Water Bottle Filter. It works fast, and provides a steady stream of water without too much effort in squeezing. It is convenient to clean and use... I don't think I could have been happier. Maybe the only thing I don't like is the fact that it’s so small. 22 oz. isn't really enough water to rely on between water sources on the trail, so it doesn't spare you from hauling other bottles of water or a bladder. But for the price, It’s spot on.

Micro Microfilter Water Bottle

Disappointing - it claims to average 26 gallons, but after about 20 fillups, the water flow started getting very weak, and we ended up getting dehydrated and sucking and squeezing for every precious sip. It only came with 1 filter. Get 1 bottle for each person, and 1 filter for about every 4 days.

microfilter water bottle

We just spent a couple of weeks in the Caribbean and although they say you can drink the water and there is plenty of bottled water, it was great to fill our bottle from any faucet and drink filtered H2O (we could definitely taste the difference!). A small issue we had though was that the filter takes quite a bit of space and does not leave that much room for water. We often filtered it into another bottle to have extra.

great portable filter water bottle

This water bottle is light and easy to use. Once it's put together, all you do is unscrew the cap, pour water in, and you're ready to drink! It takes a second for the water to come out because it has to go through the filter, but I got used to it pretty quickly. I use it whenever I travel and put the tap water through it, and haven't gotten sick yet. The only downside is that it doesn't filter out viruses.
