User Review: Katadyn Vario Microfilter

Katadyn Vario Microfilter
Above: The current Vario Microfilter, which may differ slightly from the version reviewed.

Rating: rated 5 of 5 stars
Price Paid: $80

Just an update: four more trips in with the new Vario and I have nothing more to add but praise...or more praise rather. I miss the lightweight aspect of the Katadyn Exstream, but that's about it. Simply re-stated: I'm a big fan of this filter system. Katadyn finally got the replacement filters (all three: charcoal, fabric, and ceremic) out in the stores last month, although I don't anticipate having to buy them in the near future. It's nice to know the filters are priced reasonably and available for future use. If you're in the market for a new water filter, this might be the product to keep you pleased in the backcountry.
