Squeeze Water Filtration System

FITS PERFECTLY ON SMART WATER BOTTLES!!!! I learn something new every time I hike and last time I was on the Appalachian Trail for a few days I saw a few guys using these. I was using the gravity drip bags and probably never will again. You honestly don’t need the bags that it comes with. Get two Smart Water bottles and it screws on perfectly. The empty bottle adds essentially no extra weight to your kit. Fill one bottle with dirty water and put the filter on. Then squeeze into the clean bottle and enjoy. So simple so lightweight. Just used it for Everest Base Camp in Nepal and at the beginning of the trip everyone looked at me weird while they were using the purifying tablets. By the end of the trek everyone was begging to use my filter so they didn’t have to drink water that tasted like chlorine.

Haven’t used it yet but I’m trusting it will work when I need it to. It appears to have the best combination of purification quality, volume, and portability. Going in my kids and my ‘go bags’ in case of an emergency.

This thing is probably the coolest piece of equipment I own. Super easy to use, you can get 32oz of water filtered in about 5-10 minutes since its all based on pressure. Super lightweight, all around great product.

I recently completed a section hike on the Pacific Crest Trail, and I can’t recommend the Sawyer Products SP129 Squeeze Water Filtration System highly enough! This filter was a crucial part of my hydration setup, especially when used with my Cnoc bladder.Efficient Filtration: The Sawyer Squeeze filter provides excellent water filtration, removing 99.99999% of bacteria, 99.9999% of protozoa, and 100% of microplastics.

The filter worked quickly, allowing me to refill my bottles quickly.User-Friendly Design: The design of the Squeeze filter is incredibly user-friendly. It easily attaches to the Cnoc bladder’s 28mm opening, making the process of filtering water straightforward and hassle-free. The removable cap allows for direct drinking, so I could filter water straight into my mouth or a Smart Water bottle with the Sawyer Products SP150 Coupling. It also fits standard water bottles with 28mm threads, adding to its versatility.Lightweight and Compact: Weighing only 2 ounces and fitting in the palm of my hand, the Sawyer Squeeze is lightweight and compact, which is essential for long hikes. It fit perfectly in my pack without adding unnecessary weight, and it came with a reusable pouch that I could easily store when not in use.Durability: The Sawyer filter is built to last.

Its versatility means it can adapt to various situations, whether I’m on the trail or at home.Overall, the Sawyer Products SP129 Squeeze Water Filtration System is a must-have for anyone hiking the PCT or any other long-distance trail. Its efficiency, ease of use, and lightweight design made it an invaluable part of my gear setup. If you’re looking for a reliable water filtration solution, look no further!

Great water filter – fast, easy, and effective, but a disappointing flawThis is a great water filter solution—simple to use and very effective. However, one of the two bags appears to have a defect in the top left corner where it wasn’t properly sealed, which caused it to leak. Unfortunately, I didn’t discover the issue until I was out camping—arguably the worst time for a failure like this. Very disappointing to have gear let you down when you need it most. Thankfully, the second bag worked perfectly! 🙏

My buddy swears by this setup !!

as expected

Used it all summer last year for backpacking and camping, excellent purchase.
