Appalachian hike: like having your very own water well
Grayl ultra press titanium:This is my favorite purifier. Did 300 miles with this as my only purifier and I continue to love it. This press requires great upper body strength somewhat. I had to use mine by placing it on the ground then using all my weight on top of it to press it. Not the pain in the but you might think…. That position gave me a good slow and full lower back stretch every time I used it. A lower back stretch like that can do wonders for sore muscles and endurance levels.It’s thin and fits easily on the front shoulder strap. Its long shape means it won’t fit under a lot of water sources. I cut off the bottom of a smart water bottle to use as a dipper in those situations.Its best feature is the fact that I can dip it into a water source without bending over at al by using a string tied to its loop.. The novelty of doing so never wore off the entire 300 miles. In fact, with the string in play: I can get water from otherwise unreachable sources by throwing my ultrapress into the water. Don’t want to walk the 10 feet down the muddy bank? No problem, just stand on a rock, aim then gently toss the canister. It’s rather fun.It’s much harder to press/filter at the end of the day when exhaustion sets in but then so are all camp chores.The exterior of this press can function as a survival item in a worst case situation and can be directly placed in a wood fire to boil small amounts of water if necessary.Initially I thought that the titanium press held too little water to be practical and I had trouble choosing between this and the other larger options that Grayl has. In the end I’m glad I went with this. It’s so easy to use that I could stop, fill it and drink at a stream crossing without even taking off my pack or loosing any hiking time. I found that I actually drank more often than I otherwise would because it was just so easy to get drinkable water, fast.The palms of my hand would get mildly sore from pressing. But I would never want Grayl to change their design to make pressing easier, as that would just add more weight. I’m very happy with this device as it is.But I did remove the metal handles to reduce ounces.

Better than we expected!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This is awesome. We took this on a trip with us for 7 days in an area we were concerned about the water source and purity. We filled our personal water bottles with the Grayl processed water every day. Drank gallons of water over the 7 days. It was easy. It was tasty, no after taste. AND, we came home with no gastric distress. If you know what I mean!!!! 5 stars is not enough.

Just awesome! Clean water, anywhere!
Got this on sale for maybe $50 over the basic model - used to travel overseas and didn't buy one bottled water! Probably saved me the value of the unit. It's a great design, simple, somewhat hard to push though for smaller bodied persons, and doesn't hold a lot of water, so bring an extra bottle if you need a fuller cache. Worked great in creaks, rivers, and the worst water - some of the public water sources. I always filtered just to be safe. Water wss chlorine free, we stayed healthy. Helps if you dry the filter from time to time - cleaning and care is simple. It was so valuable I lost it and ran back 2 miles in the Alps up a major back climb to rescue it. One thing I notice is the seals seem to be a little weaker after 2 weeks use - some dripping, careful not to force fully in or not in far enough..

Just fork over the money
Sure it's at 199 now but it went on sale and i went ahead and threw some money at it! Just do it! Two in 1 bottle, you can either get dirty water and turn it into drinking water in 10 seconds! Or just put water into the bottom of the container and warm it up! It's prefect! Well done I'll get the bigger one when they go on sale again hopefully at 100! in a few years ha! Got an extra filter too! Read the instructions on how to take it apart and how to use too, very important!! I think when the first filter is used up i'll clean it real good and take it apart! I just curious what's inside it. :) Great product fast shipment Grayl got a customer for life now!

Great product and even better customer service! Thanks Travis B and Scott R!
I purchased the Titanium Ultrapress after a 3-day bikepacking trip after seeing the need for water sourcing along the Potomac River after the water's been shut down because of the colder seasons along the C & O Canal. This item is a well-thought-out product. Customer service was incredible. When I purchased my Ultrapress through Amazon, they weren't offering the free Titanium Dining Set as the Grayl website did. It only took a quick email and a screenshot of my order and they sprang into action. Travis B and Scott Rolfson shipped a free Titanium Dining Set within 24 hours. This is a great company and I'm happy to support them. - Josh F.

Simple operation
I initially had concerns about the weight tradeoff for the sake of convenience, but those concerns proved to be unnecessary. This item is now an indispensable part of my pack. I was able to remove my cooking pot, which I typically use for heating water, and the ease of use it provides has been a significant advantage.
