"I like some better than others; like WIRED reviewer Scott Gilbertson, I found the MSR AutoFlow XL gravity filter ($130) to be a game-changer when backcountry camping with my family. It made filtering large quantities of water for cooking and refilling water bottles so much easier than our normal routine of sitting on a rock hand pumping the MSR Guardian ($253, $137 off) for an hour."
"I also took the Grayl GeoPress ($80, $20 off) on a trip to the Philippines because it's fast and filters into its own water bottle to pour into cups for doing things like brushing your teeth. However, for whatever reason, the LifeStraw personal water filter has an absolute chokehold on WIRED readers. This weekend, it's again $10 off.

Multiple backpacking water filters were tested across family backcountry and travel scenarios. The MSR AutoFlow XL gravity filter ($130) greatly streamlines filtering large volumes for cooking and refilling bottles, replacing lengthy hand-pumping of the MSR Guardian ($253, $137 off). The Grayl GeoPress ($80, $20 off) provides fast filtration directly into its own bottle, convenient for pouring into cups or brushing teeth. The LifeStraw personal filter remains extremely popular despite not being the top-performing option. LifeStraw alternatives include the Peak Series ($32) squeeze bag and the Go Series ($34, $16 off). The original LifeStraw is inexpensive, lightweight, and well suited for emergency kits and casual hikes.
