Review Summary
The Katadyn Hiker microfilter is a lightweight water filtration system that is designed for backpacking. It is a microfilter, meaning that it removes bacteria and other contaminants from water, but it does not remove viruses. The capacity of the filter is approximately 200 gallons, depending on the quality of the water being filtered. The filter uses a synthetic cartridge that can be replaced when it becomes clogged. It has a plunger style mechanism for filtering water and comes with hoses and other accessories for convenience. The system has a weight of 11 ounces and has an output flow of about one liter per minute. It is recommended to maintain the filter by lubricating the plunger mechanism and drying the cartridge before long-term storage. Overall, the Katadyn Hiker microfilter is a good option for backpacking due to its lightweight and easy-to-pack design.
