LifeStraw Personal Water Filter

I don't care where you live, how comfortable you are in your clothes, your income level, your skills in the bush or back country or if you prefer to camp in a hotel and call "roughing-it" a night in a motel, if you live in a trailer, stick-built house, apartment or mansion, you need several of these. Have one per person in your home and one extra. Have one per person when out backpacking or adventuring, and at least one in your vehicle when driving more than a 30 minute drive from home (yes, 30 minute drive because a 30 minute drive could be a full day walk back). Why? Because you can't live without clean water, and emergencies happen. Get these, and get a Sawyer Mini, and perhaps a bucket filter for your home as well. It's one less thing to worry about if an emergency happens.

My 19 yr old son went to Mexico. He def thought I was being “ super extra” buying this . He calls me from Mexico City and says “ Mom seriously thank you for buying that straw thing I def would have had to drink some suspicious water . My friend did and now he’s sick in bed for 2 days” . He said the water through the straw was “ like spring water “. Best and most worth it purchase!!

Kinda hard to review something like this because most people will not use it, however I did use it a few times while hiking just to try it out and if you follow the instructions it actually works very well. Just be careful in temperatures below freezing as it will clog up.

Was looking to add one of these to my go bag it’s light and easy to use. I have since found other items that look like they will work better in the life straw. Will let you know later.

I've been using these for YEARS. From Arizona to Washington, I hike and drink straight out of nasty stagnant water commonly everywhere I go. I dont like to pack water, I hike places I know have sources nearby. I have never gotten sick even drinking super nasty larvae infested water in cattle grazing areas of Arizona. This straw is so amazing for the price!!!

This saved me while I was in Thailand. Must have if you are traveling outside of the country where water is not regulated for cleanliness.I did have to say I got overly confident and from Shanghai back to LAX, I didn't use the straw and got sick off of the water. It was not fun for the next few days.

This water straw is a fantastic survival tool,to help.keep your drinking water safe and pure from anything harmful to your body while camping in the forest or for use on nasty city water.

I purchased this to add to our emergency kit. Haven't used it yet and may never need to but the price was right and the brand is a trustworthy brand.

Utilissima nei trekking di più giorni, ho potuto bere da fiumi e ruscelli con facilità. Non ho avuto nessun problema nei giorni successivi, quindi ha sicuramente funzionato.

ce filtre sauve la vie dans des situations .Le seul point négatif c'est qu'une fois il était bloqué.

Acheté pour sa légèreté, après avoir hésité pour sa sœur en métal, je ne suis pas déçu.utilisé en remplacement de bouteilles sur des randos ou des trails, ses 20grs sont fantastiques face a 1.5 l d'eau.inépuisable, 1000 l sont largement 2 ans de galopade dans la nature.Utilisée déjà plusieurs fois dans des sources, flaques, abreuvoir, mousse, pour l'instant aucun soucis intestinal.donne un gout légèrement métallique à l'eau, mais qui n'est pas du tout désagréable.Un peu d'effort pour faire monter l'eau dans la paille, tout comme pour la chasser.Je ne regrette pas l'achat, pouvant maintenant galoper léger, ce qui est un plaisir exaltant, seulement accompagné de la paille et de barres énergétiques.Je conseille

Good bit of kit to keep in your camping gear or if you go for hikes etc deffo worth having one with you, you never know when you might need one! I recently used mine when we went wild camping and gathering our own water and food etc. We boiled the water first but then used the straw to filter out on dirt etc from the water and i must say it worked really well.The water we had was a bit murky but after sucking it through the LifeStraw it was crystal clear! I cannot recommend these enough to anyone who is considering going wild camping! Brilliant piece of kit!
