New bags don’t last!
I have used Sawyer Filters for several years. I started with a mini, then after hearing the full size Squeeze filters faster, decided to try that. I noticed right away the bags that came with it were much lighter. I thought that would be nice, everyone wants lighter equipment, right? Wrong! I burst a bag the first trip out with it! I’m not even squeezing it that hard! I had bought a three pack to go with my filter, and one by one they have broken in the same place. Hopefully Sawyer will do something about this! Will be returning to REI
GREAT for ultralight backpacking
My wife and I have used the same Sawyer bag and filter for two years (approx. 80 days hiking)with NO failures or other problems. Some of our hikes are multi week adventures, so dependability is very criticle to us. We each have our own filters and bag, and neither has failed. We love this product!
Broke after only about 10 L
We were relying on the Sawyer squeeze pouch + filter for a very remote backpacking trip, and the bag broke after only filtering about 10 L of water! I had read the reviews ahead of time, but didn't believe them, very stupid of me! We ended up needing two people to filter water - one to hold the various holes in the bag closed, and the other to direct the purified water into our reservoir. Tape didn't work at all. Trust the reviews and the importance of clean water and just get a Smart Water/Life Wtr bottle, which a Sawyer can screw onto.
Lightweight water storage
For backpacking I prefer several 32 oz bottles to a 64 oz. They are easier to pack and can be distributed to balance out the weight. I've used other compact squeeze bottles, but they tend to come apart after a half dozen trips or so. The Sawyer bottles seem to hold up better and since I carry a Sawyer water filter I don't have to worry about the threads matching up or getting a good seal. I do wish that Sawyer would make these available in a second color so I could easily tell the pouches containing filtered water from the pouches used to collect water for filtering.
Great filter products
I don't understand the bad reviews. I have a LOT of Sawyer water filters and accessories and love them all. I have 2 Squeeze Point One filters, bags in every size, a Point One regular filter with water bottle, a Point Zero Two with bottle, the gravity bucket system and the inline hydration pack adapter. I use ALL of them and have NEVER had a problem with any of them in over two years of constant use. I have multiple set ups for disaster preparedness at my home and cabin. I carry one with me when I'm traveling to be prepared for a natural/unnatural disaster. I carry one in my cars. I carry one on my boat. I carry one with me hiking, fishing and hunting. Other reviewers have stated the bags break but I have yet to break a bag. However, I don't force the water out more than the capacity of the filter. If you use "reasonable" pressure, the water flows and empties the bag in a matter of a few seconds. Don't try to force it out like a firehose. I've never personally been with anyone who broke a bag but I'm assuming they used too great a pressure as I've NEVER ripped a seam. But REI's no questions asked guarantee should get you a replacement if you do break one. I am a Sawyer water filter Raving Fan.
Pathetic Pouches
This is for the bag only - the filter is great. My first Sawyer was purchased 4 years ago. I used it for a few summers with no issues. Last summer my two bags finally started springing holes just below the 0-ring. This seemed reasonable to me after filtering many gallons of water over dozens of day trips each summer. I bought some replacement bags for the original filter and they quickly sprang holes in the same spots. Fast forward to last week when I bought a brand new Sawyer Squeeze system for a 3 day backpacking trip. On day 2, the brand new bag (about half as thin as those found in my original Sawyer Squeeze) popped a small hole in the usual location below the O-ring. The very next day while backpacking out, multiple holes popped into the usual location when filtering water. Seriously?!
Pack some duct tape!
We have been using these bags for a few years and I'm used to taking backups because one of the bags always breaks, so I bought a new set for our week long trip. Three days in and this brand new bag fails along with one of our older bags. Luckily were able to mostly fix it with some duct tape, but I'm really tired of buying these bags and worried about not having water if all my bags fail.
Turn it into a drip filter!
Man oh man. Last year, squeezing was kind of a pain though for the weight to price ratio, this is a fantastic filter. You can easily adapt this to be a drip filter. I found I had everything I needed already at home but desired a larger dirty bag. No extra weight either :-) Buy these larger bags and pierce two holes in the bottom where it wont touch the water in the bag, insert a string so it hangs upside down. Attach your filter and then get an adapter for your hydration bladder (use the grey tube that came with the sawyer filter and a little plastic nub from camelbak or platypus that allows you to attach the filter directly to your drink tube). Hang that bad boy up and let it do all the work for you. No more squeezing, its quick!!!! PS I found my 1 ltr platypus bottle kept losing thread, so I am running out to REI to grab these today. If my instructions are confusing, google some videos on sawyer drip filter diy. Watch a few as there were different methods and I liked some more than others.
Fragile at best.
Unreliable plastic bags that will fail you at some point. Reviews saying they have been using these for 2 years on multi-week adventures are fake at best. Go ahead and buy them, but remember this true review in the back of your mind. I cant get 20 liters of usage out of a bag over the course of a year. Use a Platypus bladder instead. They cost twice as much but will last 8x longer.
Defective
All four bags are defective. The sawyer filter does not fit tightly enough causing water leakage. One bag had a pinhole in it. Since this purchase in spring, I'm out of bags and haven't finished summer. Disappointing.
