Excellent product with great customer service backing it up! I travel a lot and don’t have access to pure water when I’m traveling outside of buying single use plastic bottles. This is the perfect thing to refill in airports, public restroom sinks, people’s kitchen sinks, anywhere you can get water… I can’t tell you how much plastic and money I’ve saved using this thing the past 2 years. In addition, my stomach is very sensitive to chlorine or bacteria in the water, so being able to drink all my...

Useful in some circumstances
I use this mostly to reduce dependence on bottled water when I cannot access boiled water, which I usually drink I find the flow rate a little slow and drinking effortful which can result in less hydration- I guess the filter causes that. Also I like to dry the filter between uses and am sometimes surprised at how long it retains water

Purchase of 2 LifeStraw Go Bottles
I purchased 2 LifeStraw Go bottles for a trip to Costa Rica and my husband and I absolutely love them! They were terrific for our trip, with the included carabiner we were able to easily snap them to our day packs so they were always at hand as we traveled around. Even though the public water throughout Costa Rica is very safe LifeStraw still gave us the peace of mind that if we did need to drink water from a waterfall while out hiking we absolutely could do so with no hesitation. Of course we ...

Backpacking use
Took 4 of these bottles out to a scout ranch in New Mexico, dipped them into the stream and drank the water using no other filter and the water tasted fine. Even had some sediment at the bottom of the bottle when empty. The filter works as stated in the product description. Will buy more to add to what i have when I am backpacking in the coming years

easy, practical, and very functional
I used it when i went traveling to Colombia. I would just get tap water and run it through the bottle and never have to worry about getting sick. I also used it the airport at sinks because at the time due to Covid all the water dispensaries were out of service. All in all, absolutely worth it.

So far so good !
Used it a couple of times at amusement parks to filter the nasty water they had available. Worked great.

Filters already filtered water!!!
We have a filter on the incoming water line for years. I have always felt safe because of it. Never realized how much the pipes themselves were adding to the water. The taste of the water is so clean less metallic with Life Straw. Now I am always refilling the pitcher in the refrigerator, the cats drinking fountain and the kettle with the Life Straw pitcher.

Awesome Product!
Would RecommendMy son and I used these on a fly Northern Tier scouting adventure camp for 10 days of canoeing. These were incredibly convenient. Most others on the trip needed to use iodine crystals and wait 20 minutes before drinking. My son and I just dipped and drank straight from the rivers and creeks with zero problems. I cant recommend this product highly enough for off the path trips or hikes or even to have in your car in case you get stuck somewhere.

Wish the cap didn't leak
Would Not RecommendI got a lifestraw water bottle at the go pro games in Vail and the cap leaks if the bottle is not held straight up. This is a bit annoying, especially with the already limited capacity of the bottle. Was hoping for a more durable product for hikinh.

Leaks!!!!
I just started using this bottle and put it in my purse while driving when I got home my purse was soaking wet. Very disappointing as this is not a cheap bottle

Thirsty Ladies with leaking bottles
Would Not RecommendBought 2 of these for my wife and daughter for Christmas. They have both leaked out of the vent hole when tipped over since they filled them the first time. My daughter has trouble every few days with sucking the water through the straw.. I love the idea of not buying bottled water all the time, but the leaking water all over the place, and the straw clogging on my daughter is kinda annoying.. many other bottles work without leaking, can we get a few that don’t leak please.. and don’t clog?

Backpacking Adventures
Would RecommendI purchased the lifestraw bottle to keep wight off my kayak for a 3 day stay on the current river. I trusted my life with this bottle and drank from the stream for three days. The water was so good that when I got back, I tried normal water at a restaurant and spit it out. I will not drink water from any other source again!

It leaks, get a different style
Would Not RecommendI love the straw and use it while fishing, however it leaks when not standing up which makes it super annoying. You guys have to fix this design flaw. Again, love the straw, but get a different model that doesn’t leak…I’m hoping Lifestraw will send me the stainless steal as a replacement which I’m hoping doesn’t have this defect.
