This review is from: MSR SweetWater Purifier System - Water Filter, Viral Inactivator, and 2 Liter Platypus Bottle (Misc.)

This is one great system- if you do alot of backpacking, hunting, camping or other backcountry activity you can't go wrong with this one. Its a lightweight powerhouse of a purifier. Its easy to deploy and easy to operate with a high output capability. Works equally well - flowing stream- or in a pond and marsh environment. Throw it in your ruck and go.
