Platypus QuickDraw Filter System - 1 L

Amazing product. Superfast, lightweight and easy to use.

Switched to this filter from an MSR gravity filter that I loved but needed something for solo backpacking. The QuickDraw is amazing! The caps that screw directly into your water bottle are so convenient and the squeeze bag seems durable. I especially love the little grab loop on the squeeze bag, it makes it so easy to fill up. The only thing I'd want different is a carry pouch to hold all the items in one place but I found a mesh bag that worked for that. 10/10 recommend

Love this water filter! Quick and easy to use plus weighs nothing in your pack and takes up practically no space! This is my go-to for my backcountry trips and guiding fly fishing too! One note as with any filter ensure you filter water with no sediment or you will clog the filter!

This is fantastic .. just used it on Long Range Traverse and it worked great. Quick flow, easy use and compact. Definitely recommended.

After years getting by without a filter I decided it was time to get one added to my kit. After observing other filters in use by friends and colleagues in the field I decided to go with the Quickdraw for its small size and weight, and approach to filtration and have been 10/10 satisfied with the decision.

Filter works well. The filter does not attach to smart water bottles as indicated. I’m struggling to find any bottles it connects to. I assume it must be US size bottles?? Disappointing.

I think the filter worked great. I liked it better than the Sawyer Squeeze filter I've used in the past. The Dirty Water Bag was easier to fill than the original Platypus bladders and the loop helped hold on to the bag in fast moving water. My problem was with the dirty water bag connection to the filter. It was very hard to connect them. Eventually the first 1/4 inch of one of the bag connecting threads broke off making it harder to align and attach the filter to the bag. It worked but it took time to alight the thread and required quite a bit of torque. The standard thread was much easier to use and didn't fail. In addition the cap for the dirty water bag was very hard to attach so I didn't always attach it fully. Eventually it was lost after it popped off when collecting water from fast moving source. In the future I will probably use a standard bladder and water scoop due to my problems with the Dirty Water Bladder connection. Usage: 4 week, 240 mile JMT hike.

The filter works well but the dirty water bag exploded.
