    Very easy to use.
    We just finished a 3 day trip. We pumped water from a river, streams, and even a standing pool in a stream bed. No funny taste in the water. Clean and clear output. I recommend a coffee filter over the intake bulb to prevent particulates from clogging the micro screen as you pump. The included quick connects are not compatible with camelback branded QC. It will leak. Otherwise, fantastic product! A must have!

    This filter is a mid range product. This is the first one I've use so I can't compare to any others.

    It's very useful when we go backpacking. It's nice to be able to fill up our bladders or bottles and only have to carry what we need. Water is extremely heavy when you have no way of filtering and have to carry all of your water with you.

    It's very easy to use and we've used ours on many trips! It has a foam floater by the intake so it doesnt drop into any sediment, making the filter last longer.
    Once we get home always remember to take it apart and wash it out and let it dry!

    Great for the price! And the piece of mind.

    Used a friends water purifier last year backpacking and was similar design to this and their water tasted a little off, but just assumed that’s what it would be like drinking water from a lake ran through a backpacking purifier. BUT this one my husband and I just used to go backpacking with made our water taste AMAZING! Almost better than our water from home! And it was at the same lake we backpacked into last year.
    Easy to use, lightweight to pack, and easy to clean/store. Highly recommend this to any fellow backpacker! Can’t wait to use it again this weekend!

    Ive had mine for over a year. I would say its definitely worth the expense (in both money and weight) HOWEVER, the main housing has an issue with leaking. The plunger is fine unless its a manufacturing defect. But the gasket on the filter cartridge doesn't full seal against the main body when threaded in. Just prior to fully seating, the main body slightly deforms and causes a small gap enough for a leak. This doesnt reduce its effectiveness, but it's irritating for sure.

    4.0 out of 5 stars Proven unit, fast, convenient, effective. Price of filters too high, not 100% durable
    Reviewed in the United States on July 16, 2018
    Style: Water FilterVerified Purchase
    My second Hiker Pro - the last one lasted about 100 trail days of pumping for two people, so about 300-400 gallons. Then the valve that actually lifts water into the filter somehow decided there was too much weight on it (hose was hanging into a creek below a log at full hose extension). The fact that this happened without any prior indication of pending failure is the only reason I am dropping a star from the review. I had just replaced the filter element (for 75 % of the cost of the whole filter) so I figured I'll get another one, given I had enough filter to go another 100+ days.

    Weight is acceptable. Pre filtering appears to keep most of the crud out of the mountain water I usually filter, so these things last a long time for me. Packs well, drains before packing with a few strokes. Can get to water in hard to reach places, and it's quite fast. Just a few minutes for two 1 liter bottles and a gallon water canteen for camp. I move too fast to want to rely on any gravity system and in the end these things are just a matter of hair. If you pack them, use them, or they are just dead weight. This one is easy, and combined with bottles that don't tip over makes a great filter system for me. That's what matters. I don't count ounces on things that are essential for daily trail living. It

    The pump shaft and filter are pretty easy to service - I keep it lubed and the pump will go smoothly. none of that was related to my last unit's failure. I assume it was just a flapper valve that let go, something you cannot service deep inside the plumbing between pump and filter housing.

    This unit shows the filter through clear plastic - not sure what that adds over the last model, but it can't hurt to see what goes on around the filter (e.g. water still in it). To get a 5 star review, the ridiculous filter cartridge price needs to come down, though. There's some pleated fiber material between two plastic ends - how can that be so expensive to make compared to the rest of the filter? The pricing of these filters in general is far too high for what they are. Clearly aimed at the recreation market. I'd like to one day find a filter that works like this unit but doesn't come with the recreational equipment markup.

    This subtle difference along with the quick connect hoses and replaceable filter media have made this an exceptional choice. Remember to take care of you filter media and allow the unit to be cleaned and dry for longer storage, will last a good long time. Used in clear mountain streams and lakes, so we did not experience any clogging or slowing of the filter during the two weeks of daily use.

    The transaction through amazon was flawless and fast, as it usually is. This product is one of the smartest things in my opinion to have on hand in a vehicle, or even at home... just for a backup. Aint much out there more important than good safe drinking water. Katadyn makes a great reliable easy to use filter here. Good peace of mind to have on hand. I have not used these particular new filters, as these were purchased for backup replacements after hiking the Rockies with previous versions for the last 2 decades. Never had any issues with these as long as you don't let them freeze with water inside. Its great to not have to hike 12 miles up a mountain with enough water to stay a week. Take a collapsible five gallon jug, spend half hour at the creek when ya get there, and your set with safe easy drinking water.

    This is my second purchase of the Hiker Pro. I do most of my hiking in the Adirondaks and White Mountains, so keeping my pack light is important.
    A few improvements were made to this filter since my last purchase. One of them being that the hose connected to the base of the filter now has a connector which stops it from bending and restricting the flow of wather into the filter itself.
    The filtered water is very good with no suspended particles to be seen. An important aspect as well is that the repalcement filters are affordable as well!
    Happy with this product!

Realmente no se cayó pues el desperfecto se encuentra dentro del filtro. No sé si fue defecto de fábrica pero a mi me falló desafortunadamente.
