I've used it on multiple occasions with different grades of poluted water. It does the job really well but I'm a bit sceptical about the durability of my unit, the handle sit rather loose. Edit 1 I've used my survival filter pro for a very long time now and it has proven that it's a worthy companion on my hikes. I've connected a quick connect from Camelback to my output tube and now at every stop near water I can directly fill up my bladder and stay hydrated. I've used it in places where the water quality was questionable but I have to admit this little tool has proven that the filtration is very good and on par if not better then the competition. In places where I really didn't trust the water I've used (after filtering) some drops of hadex or other desinfectant. My doubts about durability eventually faded away and I hope this one will serve me for my next couple of hikes as well!!!

I was amazed by some of the reviews I had come across (Amazon, YouTube) re the Survivor system and this was after I had picked up a garden variety "filter" for home use at Walmart (which I returned after ordering the Survivor). the Survivor was able to take water that was virtually IMPOSSIBLE to even consider for ANY type use (even bathing) let alone DRINKING and yet it purified the water AND made it taste good at the same time. not exactly the same thing as turning water into wine but this was clearly a close second! I have been using my Survivor (I have both the manual and electric models) for TAP WATER mainly to double clean it (just in case) but also to improve the taste (typical city water) and it works great. compared to buying a Brita or similar home filter that only improves water taste (maybe some filtering as well) the Survivor is overkill in terms of cleaning tap water of pathogens but given the fact that it also acts as a "regular filter" for taste, I think it's well worth the money. Also, if there is ever a situation where I need to get drinking water in an emergency situation, I know that the Survivor can do that, the Brita (etc.) can't. The Survivor is also very compact. it's a great design and I'm a student of good industrial design. I highly recommend this kind of filter over any other "home filter" (except maybe RO units) because it serves double duty -- can improve taste (just like a "regular" home filter) AND it can purify water at any time if you need to do that (including camping out, backpacking, but also travel to other areas where water quality is questionable). I consider the Survivor system to be in a class of its own. a great tool with many advantages. one more thing ... Survivor has had its filter claims verified by an independent lab. it's one thing to claim something but when you have proof to back it up, that helps a lot. this is a tool that not only can make water taste better -- it can save your life.

I have owned and used a number of different filters from various manufacturers including Katadyn, Sawyer, and General Ecology and this beats them all in the important (to me) features, firstly the filtration size is one of the smallest on the market and with three stages of filtration this gives peace of mind in use it's small, lightweight but sturdy with a comparable flow rate to the Katadyn Vario but at half the size and weight, There is nice attention to detail with this unit the clip for the inlet hose has one large 'tooth' that provided a secure hold on a threaded water bottle neck and a hydration bladder, it also has a protective sleeve that doubles as a cup and when fitted for travel would give storage room for a few small survival essentials (purification tablets, waterproof matches and some tea bags) The other benefit of this unit is each filter can be field serviced (to a degree) and replaced independently if needed, the new filters for my Katadyn are £45 that is the same price as the set of three for this unit but as you would normally only replace 1 of the 3 at a time then the upkeep of this unit is less painful for the pocket. I used this filter on reservoir water during heavy rain so it was exceptionally cloudy with silt but the water came out clear and sweet. I can also rate this companies after sales support as during a recent cold spell I was negligent with the filter and it froze solid, as this is something that is warned against in the instructions in every filter I have owned (water expands on freezing damaging the filters from within) I contacted the email address supplied with the product to ask if I should replace the whole unit or just the filters, I had a response the same day that I would only need to replace filters and that they would give me a discount and even provided three Amazon links for the correct filters. Amazing product even better customer care, buy it you won't regret it

El producto llego tres dias despues del plazo previsto. Por lo demas, no tiene mala apariencia, pero aun no lo he probado realmente.

Le produit a l'air très bien. Cependant, lors de sa première utilisation, le capuchon de sortie d'eau intégré à l'ultra filtre interne s'est décollé. Je suis obligé d'appuyer d'appuyer avec le pouce, si je ne veux pas que l'eau gicle de partout ! Je renvois, et j'en recommande un autre. --- Le deuxième modèle reçu ne pose pas de problèmes. Cependant, il coule un peu d'eau au niveau du capuchon lorsque l'on pompe. Au final, je dirai que c'est un filtre très efficace, mais plutôt fragile. --- le capuchon s'est décollé à nouveau, après quelques utilisation sur ce modèle (voir photo). je suis déçu de la fragilité de ce produit. dommage, à l'usage il est pourtant bien pratique.
