What does this mean?Pros & Cons
Pros
Because the bottle is actually a bag it compresses down into a compact size that will easily fit in a pocket. The filter works well, but you end up refilling it multiple times to quench your thirst.
The filtered water tastes amazing and the filter rate is fast and smooth. Easy to use compared to competitors. Only complaint is the taste, kinda like chlorine.
The flow rate is undeniably the best out there! This filter is a * fine bit of kit. Amazing flow rate, super convenient.
Cons
Works good but it leaks from the cap. Not a good top design. Compact and fast; however, that thing is way too delicate. Weak and flimsy bottle portion.

I do notice though that the bags develop small pin holes over a couple of seasons and the flow rate does slow for reasons unknown as i am overly careful with cleaning and end of season storage

Not only is the bladder prone to puncture but the filter is as well

My cousin was trying to unscrew it from the bladder and he had his hold on the wrong part of the nozzle and the nozzle broke away from the filter ruining it
