Sawyer SP121 Just Drink Inline Water Filter Save 14% off

Okay. This thing is plain awesome!

Filter rate is okay, medium drip rate but better than most mini pump filters.

What makes this really cool is the size and versatility.

The same filter can be hooked up multiple ways.

Put a straw on both ends and drink from a stream.

Connect it mid-line to a Camelback or between two bags and have a gravity filter.

(Make the top bag a Shower bag and have a huge filter that can provide water for the whole camp.)

Use the ''flush'' adapter to purify water directly from the tap when traveling overseas!

Drill a hole in a 5 gal bucket (Sawyer sells the Kit) and make a bucket/ gravity filter. (Sawyer has a program in Africa using this system providing clean water for whole villages!)

I have a Sawyer Filter with the quick releases and swap it back and forth between 3 backpacks, faucet filter my (creek pumped) water, as an emergency filter using the bucket system. In my ultra-light day pack I have a small platypus bag with the Sawyer inline filtering, and some emergency supplies. On day hikes I just stop and fill from whatever creek or puddle and keep moving.

ONE filter for day hikes, long hikes, thru hikes, group expedition and disaster/ earthquakes...

This filter is a life saver. It worked great on our most recent backpacking trip, where water was scarce. I am very pleased with this product. I used it in-line with Cyclone hydration bladders from a local Wal-mart, and it performed very well. We enjoyed clean water, from sources that were less than optimum. It is WAY BETTER than boiling, or using chemicals for purifying.

If anyone wants to help people in Pakistan, or other places experiencing clean water issues, this would be a great product to help.

My friend used one of these to make a gravity filter...he connected it with tubing to a waterproof bag. I was high up in the mountains, and just filled the bag up with stream water and it filtered great. Didn''t get sick. Water tasted nice and clean. I was so stoked on it, I''m going to buy one for myself!!!

I''ve been backpacking for almost three decades now and used many popular purification systems including the MSR WaterWorks, First Need, iodine tablets, chlorine tablets, and the Steri-pen. When I installed the Sawyer inline filter I was a bit concerned about how difficult it would make drinking from my camelbak and initially it seemed like my fears were realized. However, after a stream-side fill up on the trail I realized that the hose was kinked and that was what was causing the resistance, not the filter. It was an easy fix and that''s when the real appreciation started. I found myself carrying less water since I was traveling in country with lots of streams. I could open my camelbak, scoop in a quart with my cooking pot, close it back up and be on the trail. No pumping, no waiting for chemicals to kick in, and no chemical taste. When I stopped for the night and needed water to cook with I just removed the bladder from my pack, put it in a tree, removed the bite valved and in under 90 seconds had a pan full of water.

While I''ve only used this filter on one three day trip, the light weight, convenience, and functionality have me convinced I''ve been doing it wrong for years. The Sawyer inline filter is the way forward. I simply can''t see a downside to it.

Not really sure what to say about this product other than it seems to work fine in certain settings. I still need to test this out when I go camping and find out all the methods that can be used with this product (with rivers, or the use of a camping shower bag and gravity with the sun hitting down on it etc). I do notice a difference in the taste of water, and it comes out way cleaner tasting than city water of course. I do wish it filtered out viruses, but that filter cost an additional $40 dollars, you can always boil water which I recommend any ways when it comes to emergencies. I have done research on water filters and this one is in the top picks, and it is being used in parts of Africa, so I would say that you can count on this unit. I give this unit a 5 star because I am basing it on its previous reviews, and some of my experience with it.

Crocodile Creek Youth Drinking Bottle (Tranquility) Save 4% off

My daughter loved this bottle. It looked great and did what it is supposed to do.

But then she dropped it in a snow drift at school while sledding.

A month later, as the snow finally melted, it was found again. The bottom of it was completely sliced off, as if with a can opener. Ah, the power of expanding ice!

So yes, buy this bottle. But do not let the water inside it freeze up. ...Probably that was obvious, but just thought I''d mention it anyway.

Nathan 700ml Tritan Bottle with Flip Straw

I purchased this because I am a clutz. I spilled a glass of juice on my laptop, and the cost of repair was horrible. I work for hours at a time at the computer, and need to have something to drink, this bottle is perfect. It can fall over and not spill, it doesn''t have to be lifted up like a glass does, because the straw draws the liquid from the bottom of the bottle, and it holds enough to keep it from having to be replenished too often. When I purchased it, I didn''t know it didn''t have to be lifted to drink , I thought it was like drinking from a spout, so that was a great plus for me.

After searching for the perfect water bottle, I bought two of these for myself and my husband. We both like the size, the spout, (though neither of us use the orange part that is removable), the extra straws, but the bottle is leaky through the straw, especially if you leave it in the car or change elevation. If you flip open the spout, you will have water spout out the top all over you. I just filled the bottle with slightly cold water, left the spout open sitting on a table and it has a big bubble of water sitting on the top of the spout just waiting to spill on me or the table.

Another issue is that when we first got the bottles, they had a really bad odor. I washed by hand, soaked, washed in dishwasher, nothing helped. I had to call the company. They said they didn''t know anything about it, but that lemon juice might help. I tried the lemon juice several times and it finally helped. This seems like too much trouble from a brand new product.

The search continues...

Buy Nathan 700ml Tritan Bottle with Flip Straw Now

I just bought my first nathan bottle for my almost 5 year-old. His 12 oz. thermos foogo bottles just wouldn''t hold enough water for the 96 degree heat of soccer season. This bottle has been super. No bad smell, no leaks, tastes fine. I like the wide spout as it''s easy to fill with ice. I''ve borrowed it to take to my stroller strides class, and I like that it fits in my cup holder and I can just flip up the straw to drink, without having to pick up the bottle at all! It does sweat a little, as do all plastic bottles. And it doesn''t stay cold very long, which my son was quick to point out. I wish they would make it like the thermos double-walled vaccuum bottles that keep cold for many hours. I may try it with my BuiltNY neoprene sleeve to see if that helps at all. ALL straw bottles will spurt a little liquid if the pressure changes, including the thermos foogo ones. Nothing you can do about it except to unscrew the cap a little to release the pressure before flipping up the straw to drink. I have not had to do this with our bottle and it has never spurted water at us yet, but we haven''t taken it up in the air or changed altitudes much. We''re pleased with it overall.

ORIGIN8 HydroRail Double Seat Bracket Save 13% off

This bracket fits the Brooks B-17 saddle, without modification!

Unlike other brackets that require a specific seat post diameter or specific rail spacing, the Origin8 HydroRail will fit a great variety of saddle rails. The clamp-screw goes through a wide slot, not a fixed hole, so the spacing between clamps and their orientation is very flexible.

It is stiff, lightweight, and sturdy. The surface finish is attractive and perfect. It was easy to adjust. The rails each have a threaded hole to mount a CO2 cartridge, if you''re into that. The left and right rail angles are independently adjustable -the adjust-ability is very nice and helps avoid the dreaded Bottle Ejector syndrome, although I don''t see a lot of utility in being able to set each side to a different angle.

I recommend applying assembly grease to the threaded fasteners before use to prevent galling and make adjustments easier. I also strongly recommend that you take your saddle off the seatpost to install the HydroRail, as installing it took a modicum of dexterity -not hard, but trying to install it while the saddle is mounted on your bike will lead to frustration.

It is a very nicely engineered product, and I''m glad I bought it.

This thing is built very strong. I really enjoy it. Seems to be built like a tank. I will say this though, my buddy has a very high end, and expensive, seat bottle holder, and it is much lighter than this one. I guess, you get what you pay for, and I think this bracket is a killer good value.

Nice, well build, and sturdy. Does its job exactly like its supposed to. Does not wobble at all. 4 stars because it is pretty heavy, but so is the water in the bottles, so its really of little concern unless you''re counting every gram.

The HydroRail simply doesn''t stand up to its intended usage. The first one I had snapped, dropping my bottle, still in its cage, to the ground at 20mph, this with very few miles put in on smooth Phoenix, AZ streets. I received a warranty replacement from the seller, and on the second ride out, one of the clamps that holds the entire setup to the seat rails failed and forced me to move a bottle onto my frame, and put the other bottle in my jersey pocket just to get home. I would avoid this thing as there are superior products out there.

Military Surplus Swiss 20L Water Bag

Just bought this for camping to replace my old plastic piece of garbage. At first sight it looks like somebody just sealed the ends of an inner-tube,put handles and a spigot on it. BUT, its tough and water tastes fine. The rubber (inner tube) smell is powerful on the outside and I thought it might affect the taste of the water inside. Not so. 5 hours into filling it, the water still tastes sweet. I don''t know about long term storage. I''m going to leave it for a few days see if taste changes.

As the other reviewer noted it is probably the best for shower water. Leave it the sun and let it heat up and you have hot water. You could also bring the water into the tent as a hot water bottle.

disclaimer. first time use.

will report back if anything changes.

Update:

water had a definite rubber taste at 12 hrs after filling it. I believe the term is vulcanized rubber.

The other reviewer that likened these to automotive inner tubes glued on either end described these perfectly. I''d say they have all the qualities and drawbacks of car inner tubes that hold water. They are extremely durable, they smell of vulcanized rubber in a pungency characteristic of military surplus.

I got four of these from cheaperthandirt to refill my boat''s water tank during the winter. I used these a number of times to fill from a hose and dump in a funnel, in freezing weather. For that, they work. The cap that screws off also has a built-in spigot that releases water on pushing a white button, but that spigot is mostly for show, it takes a lot of pressure to get a little water.

The rope handles, spigot, and bag itself are very tough. Filled with water, this thing weighs 35 lbs. I felt no problem throwing a full bag onto a hard surface, and none of mine show damage. If you''re filling with water often, i suggest you cut the end off a hose and jam it down the mouth of the thing, as the rubber tends to flex the opening shut inside the bag. Water you run through this will taste of rubber. Although the taste diminishes with use, it''s inevitable. A brita filter will fix this.

I think for a place to keep emergency water, or a way to transport water in 5 gal sections, this is a good way to go.

GoFit Adjustable Weighted Vest

After searching the internet thoroughly, I decided to give the GoFit weight vest a try. I''m sure if you spent over a $100 on a weight vest, which many of them cost, you could find something that would be just a little better, and I mean just a little. This vest is comfortable, fits well and is adjustable for size, is weighted nicely and gives the back in particular a good workout just wearing it. There''s been research on weighted vests and osteoporosis. One source indicated that just wearing a 10 lb. weight vest an hour a day will prevent osteoporosis from progressing. That was important to me. I''m very glad I didn''t buy the hype and purchase a more expensive one.

I am a pretty serious runner, averaging at least 40 miles a week (I''ve run two marathons) and I also do Hatha Yoga daily (with some unique modifications to make it more difficult). Formerly, I was a serious weightlifter. This information is provided to understand my review.

Most recommendations for first time weight vest runners is to start with about 2.5% above your weight for the vest. Clearly, this recommendation is to fend off litigous people who don''t understand the increased difficulty when running with a weight vest and then have a problem and blame the manufacturer. I weigh about 150 lbs., and it is perfect for me.

I started with several easy five to six milers. During the run, I immediately noticed the effects after starting one route for my run which starts with a large incline. I would not recommend that. Rather, warm up slightly longer to get both your breathing and body used to the weight. Also, PLEASE be careful as the inevitable problems outdoor runners experience, i.e., rocks, curbs, or uneven sidewalks can be much more dangereous. Your achilles/ankle area will be very sensitive and any trip or loss of balance could be dangereous. Of course, I ran at a slower pace than I usually do, but overall found the normal run to be perfect with the weight vest. I stretched and did Yoga afterwards and I would certainly recommend you stretch afterwards, too. The next day, I did feel sore, but in a good, "long run of the week" way. I did not experience any pain. After several "normal" runs with the vest, I embarked on my twice weekly hill training session. It was AWESOME. Climbing the long hill that I normally do repeats on was intense. Going down the same hill was challenging as well. PLEASE be careful when going down a hill with the vest; you''ll definitely notice a big difference on the impact on your body.

Going down hills is where I experienced my only complaint about the vest: for those who are thin, it is a little loose in the rib cage area. It doesn''t bounce around on the waist at all where the straps are. It just could use an additional strap in the rib cage area. Women may notice this even more.

Overall, I absolutely love this vest. It doesn''t require you to add the weights and is easy to wear. Also, the price is fantastic.

Finally, PLEASE be careful and be fit before you start running with this vest. KNOW YOUR LIMITS, please. Beginning by walking would probably be wise.

It will be a great addition to your training sessions.

If you are looking for a less expensive, functional weighted walking vest, this one will do. As with most "one size fits all" items, it doesn''t really. On me, a 5''1" woman, the top part of it is too large. At first it felt like it was slipping off my shoulder, but I got used to it. The velcro waist straps aren''t actually at my waist more like over my belly. The vest has 22 interior pockets for the 22 weight sacks 11 on the front and 11 on the back. The pockets are made of that stretchy, rubbery material that is often used for canned drink insulation sleeves. Each pocket has a slit that runs crosswise in the middle of the pocket. That is how the weight pouches can be removed. If you did that a lot, I would think eventually that slit would rip, because you have to stretch it quite a bit to get the weight pouches in and out. Each weight pouch contains what is described as metal shot. It looks like dirty sand. The sandy stuff is first sealed into black plastic. Then that was sewn into a synthetic fabric pouch. The sewing on the fabric pouches was very sloppy. I decided to remove the fabric it just seemed to make it more difficult to get the weight sacks in and out of the vest pockets. A few of the plastic pouches weren''t completely sealed, allowing the sandy material to leak out. This was easily remedied with some duct tape. I only wear my vest at home, indoors, on my treadmill and elliptical, so the look of it wasn''t a big deal. As I believe someone else mentioned, it looks something like a bullet-proof vest. I think I would feel silly wearing mine outdoors, especially since it is rather ill-fitting. In summary, this vest gives me the extra 10 pounds to wear on the treadmill and elliptical, but it''s not pretty and it''s definitely the economy version of one of these things.

Bought two vests a year ago (2006) for climbing team members. The vests are used and abused three days a week by climbers not interested in treating them kindly. They''ve held up to the punishment. Being able to remove all the weights is great as the climbers work with a percentage of their body weight. Being able to have all the weights in is great for mom who wears the vest on weekends (cleaning house, gardening, etc). Easy way to get exercise while doing household chores.

I''m 5''4" and I walk 6 days a week between 1-2 hrs each trip and find this vest pretty comfortable to wear. Because the weight is evenly distributed it doesn''t feel like I''m walking around with an additional 10-lb''s (that''s nice!). The vest has padded extra wide shoulder straps, but I don''t use them much:) After sinching the waste I find I''m so short in the torso that the vest actually rests on my hips and lifts the vest off of my shoulders. This is ok by me since I don''t like weight pulling on my shoulders anyway. The dual stomach Velcro waste tabs are nice for making a snug fit, but I have a smaller chest and find it has a tendency to gap and look/feel bulky up top. I wish it had a second set of straps for the chest area. The placement of the weights is nice too (front and back only-none on the sides). I really only have one major complaint...I wish it had an easier way to pull the weights out (little sand bags). This vest has very small slits and it''s a pain to remove all the bags when I want to wash the thing. I think a single Velcro flap covering the tops of each row for quick removal would be a huge time saver. All-in-all a good product and I''m glad I bought it.

Bushwhacker Shasta Black - Insulated Bike Water Bottle Holder Save 50% off

GREAT Product! My grandchildren and myself love it. It''s a Water Bottle that goes into a case. So easy to put on (unlike all the rest that you have to screw on, etc.) Just velcro it anywhere you want on the bike.

Will definitely order more for others who ride bikes. Great item and reasonably priced. Couldn''t be happier.

I got this to attach to my belt while in Africa for a month this summer. I like to be very hands free so thought I''d give this a try. I tested it out the other day while hiking. The holder itself is wonderful. I actually used the bigger/wider vertical loop to go through my belt loop instead of the little flappy one on top and liked this fit much better. It was very snug and didnt flop around at all.

That being said, the water bottle it comes with isn''t quality. It doesnt have good suction so when you drink, a lot of air comes with it, making the drinking experience the opposite of pleasurable.

The velcro strap that secures the water bottle is very nice and allows you to put a variety of bottles in the holder instead of the one it comes with.

I highly recommend buying this if you are looking for a good holder. If you are in it for the water bottle, get something else.

I''ve been looking for a water bottle holder for my Brompton folding bike. This one looked pretty decent, and it was at a good (i.e., inexpensive!) price.

It arrived VERY quickly, and the packing was just fine. I quickly put it on my Brompton, fastening the vertical loop of rip&strip tape around the handlebar and the horizontal one around the stem.

It works fine. With only two attachment points, it does sway a bit. If I use this regularly as a bottle holder on this bike, I''ll wrap a toe clip strap or something around the bottom for a little extra stabilization. Note: you would NOT need this if you were fastening it to your belt or carrying by hand. And you wouldn''t need it if the little bit of swaying it does doesn''t bother you. I just like a little bit of extra security.

I didn''t go over any big bumps in my test rides, so I don''t know if the water bottle would pop out if I did. There is a rip&strip strap at the top of the holder that might be useful in cinching the bottle in a little tighter. That''s not quite as good as a drawstring, but it would probably help.

I did try my Kleen Kanteen bottle in the holder. It''s a little tall for it, but I think it would work in a pinch.

Sigg Dolphin & Co Water Bottle (Blue) Save $0.04 off

My three year old has been using it for a couple of years, I typically send her to school with it in her lunch bag and use it when we go on outings.

It seals securely do it does not drip. I appreciate the fact that it''s aluminum and I do not have to worry about the BPA issue if her lunch sits in the sun, although on that same noteremember she''s a toddler and the aluminum dents. She''s dropped it several times, and I''m actually fairly pleased how resilient it isit has stood up to beatings better than my aluminum bottle, the bottom seems to be thicker than mine. The only quirk is that she had to become proficient in opening and closing it. When she was two, she initially needed the help of her teachers to open it because it''s a pretty firm 1/4 twist on the sports top to open the water way. However if it''s not probably twisted/closed all the wayit will leak, but the child should know becaus the top cap will not snap shut. She has the .3 L size and it''s a perfect size to carry around in her little toddler hiking bag when we go in our day trips and put in her lunch pail. You might be able to get away with the .4 L in a lunchpail, but I like this smaller size because it''s easy.

One more thing, the top is narrow so it will not fit typical brushes for cleaning (they do offer a sigg bottle brush to purchase to clean them) but since I don''t use it for anything but water, I flush with soap water inbetween the dishwasher cycles and it''s been great.

These are excellent bottles. I have three. When they fall, they don''t drip. They are easy to fill, and don''t leak. And my little boy (2 years old) loves them. They fit in my handbag and I don''t have to worry about drips. They fit in the cupholders in the car and on his carseat and in the stroller.

Grey Civil War Canteen

Great canteen...with the bullseye ribs molded into the plastic. Holds water perfectly. Could be easily used by an adult and would be sturdy enough for reenactment use. The zipper would have to be changed out (simple job)but other than that a great deal and very fast shipping! You are also supporting the cause of historic preservation which is vital and enduring.

From afar the canteen looks authentic. The white strap covers the zipper. However the canteen itself is made of gray plastic. This is perfect for us as we''re only using it as a photo prop, however if you want it for actual reenacting you may need to make some modifications. First off, the cap is bright metal, you''d need to distress that a bit. You would also want to faux finish the inside plastic part of the canteen where it shows through the fabric.

As stated in a prior review, the plastic clips seem flimsy, if you intend on using this as an actual canteen you''ll want to limit the water level or reinforce the clips. Remember to sterilize the canteen before using as stated on the product itself. I would have doubts at the water holding capabilities of the cork just by looking at it''s construction, but I have not tried it myself.

Buy Grey Civil War Canteen Now

Within 15 minutes of playing with it, we had to make adjustments and advise no more than 1 cup of water at a time to eliminate weight so the strap wouldn''t break the plastic clips that hold the canvas strap.

It was a cheaper version of the $65 canteen that authentic Civil War Re-enactors would buy, so we got what we paid.

The bottle came today and upon turning the bottle around my son immediately noticed the robot monkey holding a cigarette. I know this bottle isn''t specifically targeted to children, but its funny and juvenile without being cutesy. The pictures online didn''t show the back design or well enough to make out it was a smoking robot. My son is uncomfortable with using it because of this, so I will be returning it before he gets to use it. Otherwise it seems like a quality product.

so christmas was coming and I was broke. I mean nothing! Had to give something to my older children and thier friends coming from out of town. In thier early 20s both guys and gals. Okay cant get the hip expensive gifts.Soooo give gifts that are fun and will make you laugh.What did they all had in common? The Gym and water bottles. I saw this and Had to have it!What better bottle then bannana juice squeezed by robot monkeys!Anyway each got a different funny water bottle.They are well made and dont have metal after taste.They hold the cold and the heat just like the old fashion aluminum tumblers.They are fine in dishwasher.What a conversation piece.My 8 year old had to have one after the big guys got thiers and her one complaint at school (we are in SC and temps get hot) was By lunch her drink was warm and she would not drink it and was thirsty.This filled night before put in fridge keeps drink COLD all day! also hot cocoa is kept warm,win win. Oh yeah price very reasonable.But the laughter and looks on the faces of my kids when I was so worried about disappointing them on Christmas was PRICELESS!
