A good, compact set with a filter which, if used properly, should according to the manufacturer last practically a lifetime. :) It filters water from rivers, floodplains and streams quite well. I haven't had to use water from puddles yet, but it should handle that as well. For more turbid water, I recommend pre-filtering through a Helikon filtering bag to avoid clogging the filter. In general, the filter itself is very good, you can buy it separately and assemble the rest of the kit on your own; it should come out cheaper.

The Sawyer One Gallon Gravity System water filter is an absolute game changer for anyone who spends time in nature. This gravity system is not only extremely easy to use, but also exceptionally effective. The filter removes as much as 99.99999% of bacteria and 99.9999% of protozoa, which gives me confidence that every drop of water I drink is safe. The one-gallon (3.78 liter) water reservoir is very capacious, making it easy and quick for me to get a large amount of clean water for myself and my companions. Thanks to this, I don't have to worry about access to fresh water, even in the most remote places. The whole system is lightweight and compact, so it doesn't take up much space in the backpack, and at the same time its durability and solid construction make it reliable in any situation. Additionally, the lack of need for pumping or using chemicals is a huge plus – just hang the reservoir and wait for gravity to do its work. The Sawyer One Gallon Gravity System is the ideal solution for any outdoor enthusiast, hiker, or even families on camping trips. Reliability, ease of use, and top filtration quality make this filter the best choice on the market!

I bought it mainly with emergencies in mind, where access to water is key, and the small filter is less efficient than its larger counterpart. And it also takes up less space than a pack of bottled water.

A great solution for trips with the whole family to the mountains or other holidays. It will also come in handy at home in case of an emergency. I highly recommend it to everyone.
