What our reviewers liked and didn't

  • No pumping, sucking, or waiting for chemicals to act
  • Improves taste and odor of water significantly
  • Rugged construction withstands outdoor use
  • Heavier and bulkier than simple filters or chemical treatments
  • Requires significant downward force to press, especially when new
  • Cannot purify very silty or muddy water effectively without pre-filtering
  • Filter replacement costs add up over time

Traveller 1 L

  • Extremely lightweight for its durability class
  • Aluminum dents instead of shattering or cracking
  • Internal liner prevents metallic taste and corrosion
  • BPA-free construction throughout
  • Highly reusable and long-lasting design
  • No insulation properties; water temperature changes quickly
  • Narrow mouth can be challenging for cleaning or ice cubes
  • Exterior can scratch or chip over time
