MSR MiniWorks Ex Water Filter
Good Flow, but Fragile...

I have been happy with the speed that the MiniWorks filters water. It does much better than the super old PUR I had years and years before.
The ceramic filter is fragile... I was filtering water from a river, slipped and dropped the filter a couple feet onto a rock and the ceramic filter cracked and busted into hundreds of pieces. Needless to say, I was boiling my water for the rest of the trip. Replacements aren't cheap.
Lessons learned: 1. Don't drop your ceramic filter on a rock, 2. Have a backup (iodine tablets or something), 3. Buy something more durable next time.
Happy drinking!
