Drink directly from lakes, rivers and streams or fill a container to use your LifeStraw on the go. The LifeStraw can provide up to 5 years of safe drinking water, with proper use and maintenance, and is rigorously tested to meet protocols established by the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and NSF International/ANSI.

Q: How will I know when it reaches the end of it's efficacy? Is there some kind of alert on the product itself?
submitted by Jen - 9 months ago
A: That's a great question! When the filter reaches the end of its life (approximately 1,000 gallons / 4,000 liters), it will stop allowing water to flow through. You’ll notice it becomes extremely hard (or impossible) to draw water through the straw. This is your built-in signal that the filter has reached the end of its usable life.

Q: Do you have to replace the filter?
submitted by Rocker horse - 1 year ago
A: The LifeStraw Personal Water Filter has a long-lasting membrane microfilter that can filter up to 4,000 liters (1,000 gallons) of water before it stops working. Unlike some other LifeStraw products, it does not have a replaceable filter—once it reaches capacity, you will need to replace the entire unit.

Great Product/ Admirable Company
While I haven't yet had occasion to use my straw myself, I know others who have and who universally applaud its effectiveness. It's also wonderful that the company is both environmentally and socially responsible! I gave 7 as holiday gifts and all the recipients were thrilled!

Bought for Emergency Kits
We purchased the LifeStraws for our Grandchildren for their emergency kits. We just had two added for a total of 7. They each have a LifeStraw. We believe in being ready in case of a grid failure or disaster. Thank you for providing drinkable water to those who need it worldwide 🌷

Amazing
I took a Lifestraw with me while I went backcountry camping in West Virginia. Honestly, this product is way under priced for what it is. It can literally save your life. I drank from multiple streams after I ran out of water and made it out of the woods safe.

This classic device replaces one I've had for a while and broke. The reason it received only four stars is I've not used it. I am confident it will function.

I haven't used them and honestly don't know when/if they will be used. On the surface, it's disappointing that they don't have a case (unless you want to doulbe your investment).

Can't say anything about it.
Can't say anything about it. It's still in the box & will stay there until I need to use it.
