New color. The Katadyn Hiker is the best selling microfilter in the US Outdoor Market. Lightweight and easy to use design is the best choice for all around use. Unique, pleated cartridge design provides fast and easy pumping. Convenient and handy for 1–2 people (e.g. while hiking or trekking). Compatible with hydration bladders.

With so many on offer these days, it is great to have a name you can trust. This item is certainly that and will be a perfect buy. The distributor have added some great touches and this equals great value.

Good product but I have to baby it a little.
A good product but I have to baby it a little. When I use this filter I also bring along a fine mesh filter. (a permanent coffee filter worked best for me because its a perfect fit on the opening of my camelback)I use the container brought along to store the coffee filter as a scoop.I strain the water throught the coffee filter into a spare 100oz camelback bladder.Then I use the Katayn filter to treat my drinking/cooking water from the spare bladder. When I tried to use the Katadyn as advertised,it had one drawback.The prefilter system ie,inlet hose mesh filter & sedement filter clogged very easely even in the sierras.This made it very hard to pump even after I cleaned both filters.(as best I could in the middle of nowhere) I like the Katadyn, it will make clean water and lots of it, if you strain the water before you use it. All filter systems have drawbacks even UVs and the couple extra steps I take are no big deal to me. I can make 200oz of water in about 5-10 min depending on...

Great product.
I use this product while i am up hiking in Idaho. And honestly i love It. I had asked my wife for a pro version of this to replace an older version i had. she got me this at first I was a bit disappointed but after three multi day hiking trips and not having to use iodine pills(though i still take them just in case). i do not even think of going anywhere without it.
A few things. The water in Idaho is relativity clean as we don't have many muddy streams / rivers / lakes. So i can not tell you how this product would work in say Missouri where the waters color seams to be brown to black. But here where the water is clean it almost never clogs. it pumps relativity fast and the water taste amazing! Seriously if you could bottle some of the water filtered through this and sell it you might make a fortune.
Anyway i can not rave enough about this. And i recommend it to everyone wanting a hiking filter!
Outstanding quality!
Perfect water filter for backpacking, day hikes, or on bicycle trips into the backwoods. It's light weight and made to last. There are terrific how-to videos for this filter on YouTube. I am very impressed with this filter! A great value and terrific service.
