About Sawyer Products SP160 One Gallon Gravity Water Filtration System w/Dual-Threaded Mini Filter
Overall Feedback:
81% positive
78% praised for its long-lasting durability, while 22% experienced a shorter lifespan
I am concerned about the long-term durability of the bag, despite it feeling pretty durable. A sharp stick or rock could potentially cut or pierce the bag if it fell hard.
I am concerned about the long-term durability of the bag. Although it feels durable, it could be cut or pierced by a sharp object if it fell hard.
If the filter is installed in the wrong direction after a long day of hiking or hunting, it could be costly if I were to contract an illness or parasite.
After a long day of chasing bucks, I accidentally installed the filter in the wrong direction and could have gotten sick. This proves that the filter is not durable enough to prevent such mistakes.
