"We are using these on a cruise to the Bahamas and then to Italy. We have not used them yet but have used other products. We expect them to work beautifully!"
"We use our Lifestraw to filter our spring water. It was a life saver when we went through Helene in the NC mountains where we live. I recommend the 8 Liter which is the one we use."
"Very compact and durable."
"Haven’t really used it since it was purchased for our emergency kit."
"I can only use filtered or boiled water. When I travel having a cup of tea is easy with the Peak filter. I can squeeze water thru the filter for tea or pour-over coffee and I am a happy traveler."
"This worked amazingly well. We hiked the Grand Canyon and used this in the Colorado River to refill our water. We also had the carbon filter attached and the water tasted great."
"the pitcher is a wonderful product.... have purchased them for my Illinois and Wisconsin homes. Have also leaned on my (adult) children to do the same for themselves. As well as for my health conscious Office Manager. I also purchased for my youngest son your 1L Peak Series Collapsible Squeeze: in 2 weeks he'll be backpacking in Yosemite, and it's the perfect solution to quickly being able to fill his personal Nagene bottle, and filtering water for cooking meals for 4; Sorry it took me as long as it did to find you."
"Have not used it yet. Bought extra bc it was on sale and “just in case” the one with the purchased bottle needs replacement when I’m on a trail."
"Game changer while hiking in Ecuador’s Rain Forrest! Thank you for making a lightweight container and for the wonderful product."
