Katadyn Hiker Water Microfilter

Item #EXT0006 | 31 in Stock
4 Star Rating

Super safe

By Ranked #303 - Water Treatment July 7, 2009

Ive always been weary of drinking water in the back country, but with this filter you are safe. I filtered out of a waterfall pool that people and dogs swam in and had no problem. The water actually tasted good. The only time I wouldn't trust this filter is if there was a dead animal in the water. Took this up on the AT in winter and the hose froze and busted. Been the only problem I have had. Called Katadyn and they sent new hoses and filter bag in a flash.
