MSR HyperFlow Microfilter

Don't buy it

By Ranked #317 - Water Filters August 4, 2008

After filtering 8 liters of water from a clear mountain stream this thing clogged. No amount of backwashing per the directions could fully restore it. It never pumped 3 liters per minute as claimed. The best thing I can say is that I got a good bicep workout trying to push the plunger down. Someone else in my party carried a Katadyn Vario which functioned perfectly. This is junk...don't waste your money.
