Berkey is great for travel and water filtration.

I've had a Berkey Sports Bottle for a year. I bought it for a week long cruise. The best way to get good water without having to load crates of bottled water onto the ship. Now I just bought two more for my daughters. We are flying to the UK for two weeks. The best way to get water and don't worry about pollution.

Pros
  • Great for outdoor activities
Cons
  • Reliability

Not for use in well water!

I bought this as a trial run to see if I would invest in a larger countertop model. I live in a well water area and spend a lot of money to deliver 5 gallons of water. Well water is good for washing dishes and such, but it tastes terrible! And I didn't feel any difference through the Burke filter. Waste of money, significant waste of money having to buy those two useless bottles!

Pros
  • Test results stable
Cons
  • Negative test present

Look at this picture! - Accessories for outdoor sports and leisure

I bought this to do some filter experiments in my preschool class for our International Space Station Center. but if it really worked out, I'd love to have one for myself! I hate drinking tap water. Now, as for the filtering. the picture says it all. The science teacher washed the containers with the soil samples and I took her gross dirty water (obviously on the left). then I squeezed the bottle and look what happened! I thought it would be a bit cloudy. but now. it was crystal clear!

Pros
  • Easy to use
Cons
  • Some problems

Broken seams where the cap is screwed onto the bottle!

We bought two packs of these bottles and after cleaning them according to the manufacturer's instructions we filled them with water and when we squeezed this out it splashed out between the cap and the bottle. Upon further inspection, we found that the seams on this bottle were thin and had holes in them. We're very fond of our other Berkey products, but this bottle went through some sort of quality control. Thomas

Pros
  • Excellent design
Cons
  • Some cons

I want to love it but it leaks

I want to love this product because I love Berkey. Those are leaks. If there is water around the seal when closing, it will leak. Because you're sucking through the filter. It's harder to suck the water out, but at least you can squeeze it out to help. The only drawback is the very small water bottle. I drink a lot of water and the filter takes up quite a bit of space in the bottle. I keep filling it up. The taste is amazing! I bought it for a trip to the desert where the water is horribly…

Pros
  • High marks for grip and durability from testers
Cons
  • Not as thick as other options

Great all round filtration system

This is a great portable water filtration system. Uses the same filtering as the larger Berkey filters, just with a smaller capacity. Unlike some competitors, this filter removes (most) viruses, bacteria, protozoa, harmful chemicals and heavy metals - all in one device. Some other filtration systems can remove bacteria but not viruses, or some chemicals but not heavy metals. This device does everything. Another benefit of this design is that you can force water through a straw, allowing you to…

Pros
  • Best
Cons
  • Ugly packaging
