From REI:
"Backpacker April '08: ''The HyperFlow is so fast and light it converted several editors who had sworn off filters in favor of chemical treatment.''. You'll be blown away by how fast you can fill a water bottle with the MSR HyperFlow microfilter. Hollow fiber technology offers an extremely high flow rate of 2.75 liters per minute. At just 7.8 oz., the HyperFlow is the lightest, most compact pump filter created by MSR. Filter physically removes particles, protozoa, and bacteria down to 0.2 microns in size, including giardia, salmonella, cryptosporidia and others. Pump is fully field maintainable and does not require tools for complete disassembly. Included Quick-Connect bottle cap interfaces with MSR hydration products, Nalgene bottles and other containers with 63mm threaded openings. Quick-Connect cap allows the pump to attach directly to the bottle or hydration bladder for the most convenient filling. Included prefilter attaches to the end of the intake hose and blocks larger contaminants from entering the microfilter. Prefilter floats near the surface of the water to avoid intake of contaminants located at the floor of your water source. Over-molded end caps on the pump provide an excellent grip and pumping comfort. Adapt the HyperFlow pump into a pump-free gravity filter with the HyperFlow Gravity kit, sold separately."

From CampSaver.com:
"The MSR HyperFlow utilizes the latest Hollow Fiber Technology in a package so small and so easy to use it will change the way you travel in the backcountry.Its ergonomic design, diminutive size and tool-free maintainability make it just as appropriate on day trips as it is on multi-day excursions.Also included is a Quick Connect Bottle Adapter allowing direct connection to all MSR hydration products and a variety of other wide mouth containers and an advanced prefilter to prolong the life of your filter."

"I'm not sure if I should be writing this review yet or not. I just got my filter in the mail this week and have not even used it in the field yet. I just wanted to point something out that I would have liked to have known before I bought mine.

While reading the operating and maintenance book I found that it recommends back flushing the filter every 8 liters or once a day."
