This review is from: MSR MiniWorks EX Microfilter (Sports) I researched filtration systems for almost a month before settling on the MSR miniworks. I figured I could just go pick one up at the local Cabela's or REI, but BOTH retail stores were sold out of these, while there was still a good supply of the other MSR and Katadyn filter systems on the shelf. I took this as a sign that this is the filter to have and ordered it from Amazon, and it has been worth every penny.

(Bern, Switzerland) - See all my reviews While it doesn't remove all the bad taste of the funky water, it certainly removes harmful bacterial, cysts, and protozoa. I don't believe it's rated to remove viruses, but boiling certainly will. I've used it in clear and cloudy lakes, rivers, and streams and haven't gotten sick. Definitely worth the money. |
