User Review: Katadyn Micro Bottle

Katadyn Micro Bottle
Above: The current Micro Bottle, which may differ slightly from the version reviewed.

Rating: rated 4 of 5 stars
Price Paid: $36

I bought the Micro Bottle while living in California for a two backpacking trip with my 8-year-old son. It worked great. We had an excellent supply of water on the creekside trail and though I am fairly certain the water was fresh, it was certainly worth the piece of mind to know my water was safe. I have since used the water filter in California, Okinawa Japan, and Hokaido Japan. The only drawback is that now that we have started backpacking as a family (4 humanoids and 1 quadraped), I could use a larger bottle/reservoir for those times when water is scarce (Okinawa, Japan). All in all, it is a great solo backpacking water filter.
