| Customer Reviews: Essential item for third world travels August 11, 2009 N. Hawkins (Chicago) 4 out of 5 found this review helpful
I bought the Aquamira filtration straw as a lightweight way to keep safe and not get sick from water-born illnesses (Cryptosporidiosis and Giardiasis being the two major ones) while abroad. I still carry water filtration tablets while abroad as a "just in case" item, but let's face it - that's a pain to deal with and you need to be planning ahead. Sometimes you just need to drink now.
I really can't get over how light this thing is. It weighs less than an ounce, and fits easily inside of any pocket you can think of. The collapsible straw is a bonus. The straw is rated at being able to filter around 20 gallons of water before it's discarded.
The price and size make this a "must have" for any hiker/camper/traveler/survivalist. Sure, you'll probably not use it, you'll be glad you have it.
Great addition to my pack May 15, 2009 Jennine L. Wardle (Kenmore, WA United States) 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
I've been looking for a small water filtration system for my hiking pack that didn't rely on yucky-tasting chemical tablets and drops. When I saw this on a survival gear review online, I immediately bought it. It's so small and light that everyone should add it to their camping/hiking gear, emergency bag or glove box/first aid kit. It also fits comfortably in a pocket for extreme situations when you don't necessarily have access to your other gear.
This is perfect for survival kits February 6, 2009 Elizabeth Nijoka (Texas) 5 out of 6 found this review helpful
I saw this item in an online example for a survival kit. My sons are scouts and needed to put together a wilderness survival kit. These are absolutely perfect. When the other parents saw these, they asked me to order for them. I feel really comfortable knowing that these are easy and ready to use at the last minute.
great back up August 20, 2008 R. Soon (CA) 4 out of 5 found this review helpful
This product is an excellent addition to any survival kit as a last resort back-up to filters or conventional water treatment. Doesn't take up much room at all, and very light.
