Sawyer Squeeze Review

Our Verdict
If a lightweight personal filtration system is next on your wishlist this season, consider the Sawyer Squeeze as one of your options. This popular filtration system stands out as being lightweight and versatile in a crowded market. It is perfect for one or two people and features a 3-in-1 design. You can drink water directly from the source through the filter, connect it to your hydration bladder, or squeeze water into another bottle. It easily packs into a small running pack and almost disappears in your backpacking bag. While we love the filter itself, we know that it doesn't take much to rip a hole in the bags it comes with. While this flaw isn't fatal, due to the versatile attachment options, it's difficult to recommend a filter that isn't fully functional. Durability flaws aside, this filter is worthy of your consideration due to its lightweight, versatile, and reliable filter design, which is extremely affordable. Check out how it compares to the competition in our review of backpacking water filters.
