Products Micro Squeeze Water Filtration System

Great product to use outdoors, like camping or trekking. Cleans any water source you could find in the outdoor.

This filter functions as it should. It filters water. But one of the reasons I bought it was for its ability to mount on top of plastic water bottles. However, it does NOT fit on Fiji 700ml, Evian 750ml, Vichy 750ml, water bottles. It also does not fit on Arwa, Al Ain, or Masafi water bottles in 500ml or 1L sizes, or any others that I have tried overseas. I am disappointed because I live in the Middle East and travel to South East Asia regularly and it seems that the standard bottle mouth / thread size in these areas is just slightly larger than the 28mm thread on the Sawyer filters. (I tried both the Sawyer Squeeze and the Sawyer Micro). I realize that Sawyer has not promised a universal fit, but I thought others who may be considering this filter for international use should be aware of the compatibility issues. I will probably return this filter and look for one that is more suited to my AOR.

I had read that the included squeeze bags aren't that great and can break easily, so I swapped it out for a Dunkive 2L squeeze bag instead. The flow feels pretty good. With this combo, I can realistically filter about 70oz in about 2 minutes. The filter and bag together weigh only about 5 or 6oz and packs down tiny. Filters faster and is a much lighter, smaller package than the Grayl and MSR filters I've used. Will have to see how it performs in the field, but I'm happy so far. Update July 2026: This filter works well but caring for it is tedious. There's is a fine line between it filtering well or nearly not at all, and that line is determined by how well it is prepped before use and flushed after use. I used this filter in the fall 2025 to filter some lake water that wasn't muddy or silty. I flushed the filter with tap water after use and dried thoroughly before storage. Fast forward to a multi-day backpacking trip this summer and the filter would hardly filter any water at all. No matter how hard I squeezed, I could only get a few drops out of it. After waiting a day, it seemed to work a little better but still very restricted. I ended up using it in a gravity fed configuration to filter water over time while I went and did other things. 5 of us on the trip had these filters and 3 of us experienced this issue. Lessons learned: After returning home and doing some research, I ended up soaking the filter in warm vinegar for 30 minutes to breakup any buildup. I then used a smart water bottle and the sp150 coupler to forcefully flush the filter with distilled water. Online resources said flushing with tap water could clog the filter with mineral deposits. A lot of debris came out, but seemed to clear up after using about 2L of water and was flowing normally again. Further research seemed to indicate that these filters need to be soaked in water to properly activate the filter fibers before use. If I do all these things perfectly, hopefully the filter will continue working for many more years!

J'ai récemment acheté le filtre à eau Sawyer Products PointONE Squeeze & Micro Squeeze et je suis absolument ravi de ses performances. Ce purificateur est idéal pour les randonneurs, campeurs et voyageurs qui ont besoin d'une solution compacte et efficace pour purifier l'eau de manière rapide et sûre. Voici ce que j'en pense : 1.

Cela m'a donné une grande confiance, surtout lors de mes randonnées en montagne où l'accès à de l'eau potable n'est pas toujours garanti. 2. Facilité d'utilisation : Le système de "squeeze" (pression) est super pratique. Il suffit de remplir la poche d'eau, de visser le filtre et de presser pour faire passer l'eau filtrée directement dans une gourde ou une bouteille. Aucun bruit ni mécanisme compliqué, juste de l'efficacité ! 3. Compact et léger : Le kit est léger et peu encombrant, ce qui est essentiel pour ceux qui voyagent léger. Il se glisse facilement dans un sac à dos sans prendre de place. De plus, le Micro Squeeze est un excellent choix pour les voyages solo ou les petites excursions. 4.

Polyvalence : Ce filtre peut être utilisé dans de nombreux contextes, que ce soit pour purifier de l'eau de rivière, de lac ou même de sources suspectes. Il est aussi compatible avec différentes poches d'hydratation, ce qui est un grand plus.

I used this on a recent 17 day hike in outback Australia. The filtration system itself worked really well but the squeeze bag failed at the seams around the nozzle on the first use. I tried to do repairs on the track with some tape but it was not salvageable. Unless the squeeze bag is upgraded to something useable and reliable, it would be better not to include this at all in the package.

The Sawyer Micro Water Filter is an absolute essential for anyone who spends time outdoors, travels, or wants reliable access to clean drinking water in any situation. Don't let its incredibly compact size fool you – this little filter packs a serious punch! What impressed me most is its unbelievable portability. It's so lightweight and small, it barely takes up any space in my backpack, emergency kit, or even a daypack. This makes it an absolute no-brainer to bring along on hikes, camping trips, and international adventures where water quality might be questionable. Despite its size, the Sawyer Micro boasts impressive filtration capabilities. Knowing that it effectively removes 99.99999% of all bacteria and 99.9999% of all protozoa gives me immense peace of mind when sourcing water from natural sources. It's incredibly easy to use – simply attach it to a water bottle, hydration pack, or use the included drinking pouch. You can even drink directly from a water source using the straw attachment. The durability and longevity of this filter are also outstanding. With proper backflushing (which is a simple process), it's rated to filter up to 100,000 gallons of water! That's an incredible lifespan and makes it an incredibly cost-effective solution in the long run. Whether you're a seasoned backpacker, a casual hiker, preparing an emergency kit, or traveling to areas with unreliable water sources, the Sawyer Micro Water Filter is an indispensable piece of gear. It's reliable, easy to use, incredibly portable, and provides the vital assurance of safe drinking water. I wouldn't head into the backcountry without it!
