User Review: MSR MiniWorks EX

Rating: rated 3.5 of 5 stars

Summary

Used this on a 7-day hike with our Scout troop. I wouldn't recomend this pump for a large group because it is very slow.

Pros

  • serviceable
  • good tasting water

Cons

  • slow

The other leader had a Katadyn pump which is must faster. But by the end of the trip it was almost unusable because the filter was plugged. The MSR was still working, although slow as ever. I did have to clean it on a few occasions when the creeks were dirty, but not a lot.

I would recommend to someone with a small group because it did function well.
