I backpack a lot. After a recent trip where I ran out of water and the only source I could find looked a bit dodgy, I decided to ditch my standard filter and go purifier. First time out last weekend on the same mountains I'd previously had issues with water quality, the difference was obvious. The water from the wayfarer actually tastes better for a start. The dodgy water source was drinkable and I can honestly say no bad stomachs at all. I wouldn't have trusted my previous filter here and in fact went without previously. It's the way forward from here on for me.
Been through 2 in 2 years.
Helpful hints
1. Never pressurize too much as this will just pop off and be unfixable
2. The plastic insert will break off as soon as you touch it
3. Try not to ever touch this once you fix it
4. If it does break you can still use the jerrycan in an emergency by inserting a pen in to the hole and opening the tap using as a handle
We have limited space in the campervan and I wasn't sure about the quality of the drinking water on some sites after reading reviews, so the cube gives us peace of mind. Easy to use, easy to setup, pure drinking water.
This is a great piece of kit for those who like to be prepared. For hikers or those wild camping this is something that should be kept in your backpack when out and about in case of emergencies. If, for whatever reason, you need to drink water that you have found in nature rather than carried with you, from a stream or pond for example, you need something like this. The filter removes viruses, bacteria, parasites, chemicals, microplastics and heavy metals leaving you with safe drinking water. It is really easy to use. Simply fill the bottle from the located water source and then drink as normal through the straw in the cap and the filters inside to the rest
In an emergency this little filter could save your life. Highly recommended for any adventurer. My only criticism is the cost. This is £174.99 (at the time of writing) which seems very expensive. Yes this could save your life however other options are available for a good chunk less in price than this. Due to the lack of value for money I have reduced my rating by one star.
LifeSaver Bottle Portable Water Filter and Purifier:
I've been aware of this product for about 10 years now but it may be much older.
You don't necessarily have to drink straight out of the bottle. You can pour the filtered contents in to something else if you like. Therefore using the 'Lifesaver' as a through-filter.
If you are in a desperate situation or can't get water in to the bottle easily, you can use the sponge at the bottom of the bottle to soak up water and then squeeze the contents in to the bottle. This may not be appealing, but I did say if you are desperate. So for example, if there is a shallow puddle on the side of the road that you can't get the bottle in to and no other water source nearby. You can dip the sponge in to the puddle and then squeeze the contents in to the bottle before following the pressurisation steps.
Because this is made out of plastic, you will have to be careful with it if using it out on the field. The last thing you would want is for it to crack.
I think the long term use-case of this product makes it worth while if you spend a lot of time out doors and are maybe traveling light. You will get a lot of use out of it before you need to buy replacement filters.
