Fragile Sawyer bags contaminate clean water!, April 27, 2012

This review is from: Sawyer Point One Squeeze Water Filter w/ 3 pouches (Sports)
While the filter itself is great, the bags Sawyer uses tend to develop leaks along the seams if squeezed very much. This allows unfiltered water to trickle down into your clean water, contaminating it. Be sure to carry at least one back-up bag to replace a leaking one. For more information, check the threads on the Sawyer squeeze filter in backpackinglight.com, where this has been discussed extensively.

twice the price and about 10x as good??? hmmmmmm
