I have use these LifeStraw filters many times while backcountry hiking & camping. They're worked flawlessly and I've never been sick from questionable water sources!
I am a survivalist and on every* 2nd weekend of the month I get dropped** 50 miles out in the wilderness. Sometimes i get really sick and wish I had this straw.
(*) - if the weather is nice (**) - some might use the word "abandoned"
Good price and maybe good in an emergency but I got one as a gift that I tried with (good clear) tap water and it was too hard to get more than a couple of mouthfulls of water with. I still keep one in my pack and hope I never have to rely on it! I have a PUR backpacking filter for longer trips.

I think it would immediately clog.
Thank you!
