Pros & Cons
Pros
This straw is very lightweight and as such it will be easy to add to my backpacking gear. Less bulky than the original plastic lifestraws much easier to slip into a pack pocket or emergency kit. At least as important as those if the unthinkable happen... Read More
Sturdy metal construction with a slim plastic carry case. Size is long and wide, and should be stored upright in a case. Nice case and instructions on how to use and store it.
It's like sipping a smoothie through a straw. It’s similar in diameter to those straws for b tea and only a bit longer. Bigger than even a large boba straw.

These things are really best for shortterm emergencies and not for prolonged need or use
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
They are not pleasant to drink out of since it requires so much suction force to pull the water through all of the filter that it will practically loosen all of your teeth

Still for emergencies they are good

You never know when an emergency may arise that require you to drink from dirty pools of water

I will admit i did not use this lifestraw because why drink out of a dirty puddle when you have bottled water but i have used lifestraws in the past and on camping trips and the original lifestraw worked like charm so no reason this shouldnt
