Title: One of the best portable water filters out there
Review: This is probably one of the best portable water filters you can buy. It filters much finer than most others.Just keep in mind that if you are filtering really dirty water it will clog up the filters quicker than normal.If you are using water with a lot of sediment, run it through a quick prefilter first and you'll be going for a long time.

Title: Its lightweight and filters water
Review: This is the exact same thing as the Survivor Pro Water Filter pump, only it comes with a complete second set of filters and tubes. It also comes with a syringe for back-flushing the intake filter. Although light and made of plastic, it is sturdy and has a solid feel to it. I first tested it by filtering water out of the dogs' water dish. The water was fine. The following day, yesterday, I pulled water from a small stream feeding into the Rappahannock River. Again, no issues. If I and my fellow hiker come down with an ailment in the next few days, I'll modify my rating.This pump is easy to set up and use. just connect the end of the intake line to the port at the bottom of the unit and drop the intake filter into your water source. Connect the outtake line to the port at the top and place the other end into your receptacle. Then start pumping. It is not terribly fast, but it gets the job done. You can backflush the intake filter by filling the syringe with water you have already purified (or tap water once you are home) then inserting the connecter on the syringe into the intake filter and forcing water through. You can also flush the primary and secondary filters by connecting your outtake line to the intake port and pumping clean water through them. Do not connect the intake line with filter to the outtake port. The back-pressure from the filter will cause the line to pop off and shoot water everywhere.

Title: Everyone should own one, or two!!!
Review: This one apart of my three part emergency preparedness water plan. First I use a 5 gallon bucket to collect nasty water from my local retention pond, then I rough filter that water through a t-shirt (I like the anti-microbial, fast drying kind) into another 5 gallon bucket, then I use this bad boy to physically filter that water to â0.01micronsâ and then finally it goes into my Berkey. The Berkey could handle the nasty water straight, but it would shorten filter life, so I prep the water. If I suspect heavy virus content (people are camping/pooping near the water source, flooding, etc) I can treat the water with my solar powered chlorine generator (fits in your pocket) and the Florineâs smell and taste will later be removed by the Berkey.0.01 microns is the nominal (average) pore size, which means practically nothing, ABSOLUTE poor size (largest pore in the filter) is .025 microns. Iâm basing this off of the fact that this filter was tested on a virus .025 microns large with success (it's also what the company told me). This isnât bad though, the next smallest pore size I know about is the MSR and thatâs ranges between $89-$350 with a poor size of .02 and it can only handle something like 396 gallons per filter, not exactly great for any sort of long term solution unless you stockpile lots of filters. Plus, the MSR doesnât have any activated charcoal which means no toxins are being removed. On that note, it stinks that the charcoal filter on this doesnât last longer. 26k gallons on the other two filters, but only 528 gallons on the carbon filter. It's not enough to say this isn't the best value water filter on the market (that I've found and I've done lots of research) it just means that it loses its limited heavy metal, bad taste/smell removal capabilities 2.9 months into an off the grid situation for a family of 3, best case, 2 gallons, per person, per day. Still not bad for $65!!!!!!!! Flow rate is good, it takes 10 minutes of non-stop pumping for every gallon of water filtered. Light enough to toss in a cargo pocket, well thought out and engineered, a million times better than life straw and any of their 2 micron filters that leave you wide open to a wide verity of deadly water born illness like Vibrio cholerae, not to mention every viruse out there! With this single $65 device, I can give my family of 3 w/ 2 dogs, 10 plus years of bacteria/ virus/ protozoa free water in an off the grid situation!Problem is, there are a lot more things than viruses and bacteria that can harm you. Heavy metals, a plethora of chemicals and toxins, etc. My very non-mobile, large Berkey, not only takes out all the critters, it also takes out over a hundred other chemicals, poisons, and metals, it even removes some forms of radioactive waste!. With two of these survivor filters (or one of the $100 extended hydration version) and my Berkey I'm ready to provide my family with over 20 years of the cleanest drinking water possible at the drop of a hat, and that's in a off the grid situation, drinking out of a retention pond surrounded by houses, in Florida!

Title: Is this the affordable MSR Guardian Rival?
Review: I've used an MSR Guardian for years--exceptional filter, but also a very hefty price tag. I came across this Survivor Filter Pro at less than a third of the cost of the Guardian, which caught my attention, but also made me a little bit leery, especially given the Survivor Pro claims to filter down to the .01 micron to remove all the really bad nasties, including viruses. In addition, the Survivor Filter Pro includes a carbon filter to help remove heavy metals and chemical nasties--something the Guardian doesn't do.The Guardian is a fantastic filter, but that's not to say that this Survivor Filter Pro won't meet my expectations. And before I made this purchase, I decided to dig into some reviews on this filter--all of which have been pretty positive and reassuring. I did come across a few reviewer concerns about the pump durability over time, but the Survivor has a much better warranty period (limited lifetime) than what the Guardian offers (3 years). So, it's apparent that the Survivor Filter folks back up their product. And truth be told, I also found some similar concerns expressed about the Guardian when I did my homework before I purchased it a few years ago, but I've had zero durability issues over the years.At least initially, the one apparent trade-off between the Survivor Filter Pro and the MSR Guardian is with the flow rate. The Survivor Filter is rated to only filter around 1/2 liter/minute, whereas I can filter close to two liters/minute with the Guardian. That said, IMO the reduced flow rate is not too unacceptable of a trade-off considering the price savings for a filter that provides an equal-to, and perhaps even a greater filtering benefit.I'm looking forward to putting this Survivor Filter Pro through its paces. So far, I'm not finding any reason to believe that this filter won't perform as expected.

Review: Took it on a week ling canoe camping trip as the only source of water for two people (dog drank out of the lake) Pumping was easy. A bit time consuming but I just set aside time in the morning to fill several bottles and a bladder for cooking. It was amazing to finally not worry about water! Easy to clean and super small and light.

Review: I have to say I was very impressed with this water purifier. I thought of buying the electric one but then I thought if I didnât have a battery, it would be useless so I went with the hand pump one I tried it out on the water in a nearby river, I tested the water first without it being purified and then I purified it and it came out absolutely perfect to drink had no aftertaste to it. This thing is definitely a lifesaver. I bought the kit with the extra filters in my opinion well worth the money it has a back flushing system, so it cleans it back out again , so youâre ready to go again I kind of hate to say this, but the state the worldâs in right now itâs a damn good thing to have. I would definitely recommend this to anyone who is a bit of a survivalist like I am and just loves to get out and camp fresh clean water is a must watch. Everyone knows I would definitely recommend getting this for your kit even your go bag. Best of luck thank you for reading it, you have any questions donât hesitate to contact me

Review: If you like survival camping of prepping this is a good product. It filters out a lot of the bacteria and viruses that can live in fresh water and it also has a filter that'll clean the water as well.
