This product was purchased to open more possibilities for water on an upcoming walk from Stanley, ND back home to SE Nebraska. I have previously used livestock tanks as a final resort , but this will let me gather cloudy stream water (without pumping through a filter and seriously clogging it) and add alum to help settle the mud to the bottom, then pour the clear water off into containers to then treat against bacteria and the like. I have tested this locally and it really works! A great lightweight solution to a real turbid problem!!

Dislikes

It is another step in the process but does open up more options for gathering water so is well worth the effort and the 2.2 ounces that the Ultra-Sil bag weighs.

Stuffs down so super small & light, you won't just think nothing of including it in your pack, you'll hardly notice including it in your pocket. Was worried I wouldn't be able to put it back in it's super small stuff bag, but it went in first try no problem.

Dislikes

It would probably take away from it's light & compact design, but I would have liked it to have more structure to support itself when full. It's compactness will be diminished by the clip/carabiner & cord you'll have to add to hang it if you don't intend to hold it constantly.
