These incredibly versatile water pouches can also be used as an alternative to a regular water bottle. When they are empty they can be rolled up to reduce their pack size. When you are out and about and water is scarce you can fill up the extra pouches as reserves. The pouches have a screw on cap.

We were relying on the Sawyer squeeze pouch + filter for a very remote backpacking trip, and the bag broke after only filtering about 10 L of water! I had read the reviews ahead of time, but didn't believe them, very stupid of me! We ended up needing two people to filter water - one to hold the various holes in the bag closed, and the other to direct the purified water into our reservoir. Tape didn't work at all.Trust the reviews and the importance of clean water and just get a Smart Water/Life Wtr bottle, which a Sawyer can screw onto.

In several weeks on the John Muir Trail, the filter worked OK, but the two bags that come with the system were a total loss due to major design flaws:1. One recommended use is to put unfiltered water in one bag and filter it through into the other bag. Problem: The bags and caps are identical, maximizing chances that a user will accidentally drink from the unfiltered water bag. Why didn't they use a different color for each bag?2. The bags are opaque, so you can't see how much water is in the bags. (Transparent or translucent water bags have been industry standards for years.)3. The bags are manufactured to lie flat (see company's product photos), so it is nearly impossible to get more than 2 - 3 ounces of water in them by swishing or dunking them in a lake or ... MoreIn several weeks on the John Muir Trail, the filter worked OK, but the two bags that come with the system were a total loss due to major design flaws:1.

I had to use my cook pot to separately draw water from natural sources and pour it into a bag.4. One of the bags leaked water between the bag mouth and the cap--a poor fit suggesting poor manufacturing standards.In my time on the JMT, I encountered dozens of people using the filters, but only two people using the Sawyer Squeeze System bags with them. Everyone else was using them with other products.

I don't understand the bad reviews. I have a LOT of Sawyer water filters and accessories and love them all. I have 2 Squeeze Point One filters, bags in every size, a Point One regular filter with water bottle, a Point Zero Two with bottle, the gravity bucket system and the inline hydration pack adapter. I use ALL of them and have NEVER had a problem with any of them in over two years of constant use. I have multiple set ups for disaster preparedness at my home and cabin. I carry one with me when I'm traveling to be prepared for a natural/unnatural disaster. I carry one in my cars. I carry one on my boat. I carry one with me hiking, fishing and hunting. Other reviewers have stated the bags break but I have yet to break a bag. However, I don't force the water out more ... MoreI don't understand the bad reviews.

Other reviewers have stated the bags break but I have yet to break a bag. However, I don't force the water out more than the capacity of the filter. If you use "reasonable" pressure, the water flows and empties the bag in a matter of a few seconds. Don't try to force it out like a firehose. I've never personally been with anyone who broke a bag but I'm assuming they used too great a pressure as I've NEVER ripped a seam. But REI's no questions asked guarantee should get you a replacement if you do break one. I am a Sawyer water filter Raving Fan.

For backpacking I prefer several 32 oz bottles to a 64 oz. They are easier to pack and can be distributed to balance out the weight. I've used other compact squeeze bottles, but they tend to come apart after a half dozen trips or so. The Sawyer bottles seem to hold up better and since I carry a Sawyer water filter I don't have to worry about the threads matching up or getting a good seal. I do wish that Sawyer would make these available in a second color so I could easily tell the pouches containing filtered water from the pouches used to collect water for filtering.
This is the new style of pouch that Sawyer has come out with. I'm not sure if it's going to be a better pouch than the original material but I think it possible. I've been using Sawyer pouches for several years and have had problems with them cracking and leaking due to the material. The new pouches are more flexible and may resist cracking better. That remains to be seen.
I have used Sawyer Filters for several years. I started with a mini, then after hearing the full size Squeeze filters faster, decided to try that. I noticed right away the bags that came with it were much lighter. I thought that would be nice, everyone wants lighter equipment, right? Wrong! I burst a bag the first trip out with it! I’m not even squeezing it that hard! I had bought a three pack to go with my filter, and one by one they have broken in the same place. Hopefully Sawyer will do something about this! Will be returning to REI
This is for the bag only - the filter is great. My first Sawyer was purchased 4 years ago. I used it for a few summers with no issues. Last summer my two bags finally started springing holes just below the 0-ring. This seemed reasonable to me after filtering many gallons of water over dozens of day trips each summer. I bought some replacement bags for the original filter and they quickly sprang holes in the same spots.Fast forward to last week when I bought a brand new Sawyer Squeeze system for a 3 day backpacking trip. On day 2, the brand new bag (about half as thin as those found in my original Sawyer Squeeze) popped a small hole in the usual location below the O-ring. The very next day while backpacking out, multiple holes popped into the usual location when ... MoreThis is for the bag only - the filter is great. My first Sawyer was purchased 4 years ago.

It's the dedicated pouch for Sawyer filters. Best to have one 32 oz. for each of the three of us on top of the 16 oz. pouch that comes with the Sawyer Mini. They lightened our backpacking load by over one pound that my MSR MiniWorks EX weighs, not to mention the Nalgenes left at home, too. Still MSR MiniWorks EX is in for the long haul.
Man oh man. Last year, squeezing was kind of a pain though for the weight to price ratio, this is a fantastic filter. You can easily adapt this to be a drip filter. I found I had everything I needed already at home but desired a larger dirty bag. No extra weight either :-) Buy these larger bags and pierce two holes in the bottom where it wont touch the water in the bag, insert a string so it hangs upside down. Attach your filter and then get an adapter for your hydration bladder (use the grey tube that came with the sawyer filter and a little plastic nub from camelbak or platypus that allows you to attach the filter directly to your drink tube). Hang that bad boy up and let it do all the work for you. No more squeezing, its quick!!!! PS I found my 1 ltr platypus ... MoreMan oh man.

If my instructions are confusing, google some videos on sawyer drip filter diy. Watch a few as there were different methods and I liked some more than others.
The pouches I originally got with the filter started leaking after a year of usage, so I ordered a new set. These new pouches seem to be tougher and probably will survive longer, but the only way to fill it is from a faucet. If you just submerge it in water (stream or lake), the pouch stays flat, with very little volume available. It is very annoying, especially in cold weather.
