Reviews

Great system with purifier and

"Great system with purifier and filter in one. The design has been improved since the first iteration of Grayl, making the removal and attachment of the filter easier. Only downside is the limited life and cost to replace the purifier cartridge."

— TIm M. (4/5)

Safer than not filtering and reduces bottled water.

"Safer than not filtering and reduces buying bottled water. I haven’t tested all that it filters. I have used it sometimes at work when the water tastes funny, during boil water notices, and when hiking/backpacking. I do question on the purification part. I tested the water post filter with a TDS tester and the result is the same as tap water pre-filter. Not sure if that should be the case. I would still use and recommend the product with questionable waters. Especially if traveling in other countries."

The GOAT

"Best water bottle hands down. Eliminate plastic waste, filter water from tap or creek. This is a must have. Just ordered a Geopress for the wife!!"

— Noel W. (5/5)

Water taste better

"After researching many water filter and purifier methods, I find this filter to be the best for taking out viruses, bacteria, micro plastics, and helps to improve water taste. After getting sick in Mexico by drinking the water, I now take a Grayl with me wherever I go."

Q&A

I found my Ultrapress in the cupboard and it had water in it. The water may be years old. Is my filter cartridge still good? I cleaned everything off but didn’t want to mess with the cartridge.: Since your filters have been improperly stored for a significant amount of time, they will 100% need to be replaced.
Why are you charging extra for the one way valve when you previously said it would be included with a cartridge as a standard feature ?: Every Grayl purifier bottle purchased from grayl.com comes with the one way valve as a standard feature. However, there are a lot of Grayl bottles out in the wild that do not yet have this feature, that is why we offer the valve as a standalone item, so other users can upgrade their existing bottles.
Will pre-filtering water with hollow membrane filter positively affect this cartridge rated lifespan and if so, than how many additional cycles could be expected?: Pre-filtering is a great way to preserve the lifespan of a Grayl purifier cartridge, but the maximum lifespan cannot be extended.
Is this the filer needed for the ultralight? If not do you still sale them?: Yes, the UltraPress® Replacement Purifier Cartridge is compatible with the Ultralight.
I have an Ultrapress. And I love it. But I was wondering how I can get the one way valve for the filter cartridge like they talk about for the filter cartridge on the Titanium model. Thanks!: Soon (within a few weeks), all of our replacement purifier cartridges will come standard with the one-way valve.
