Customers say
Customers appreciate the water purification tablets for their sturdiness, compact size, and value for money. They find the tablets work well, are easy to carry in bags and first aid kits, and are good to have just in case. The compact size is convenient for small kits like day hikes or shift bags. However, opinions differ on the instructions, taste, and shelf life.

Excellent choice for backpacking
I used these to treat all of my drinking water on a recent backpacking trip. I found them to be very simple to use, extremely lightweight, effective, and to have very little chlorine taste (I’ve had worse tap water!). I find some of the reviews complaining about the taste to be questionable, or maybe they used the wrong dosage, or are individuals who are extremely sensitive to the taste of chlorine.I also like that this product protects your water from recontamination for up to 24hrs in a closed container.Price per treatment is also very good and this product is made in the EU (Ireland).It can’t kill cryptosporidium on its own, so I use a two step system of filter (platypus QuickDraw), then treatment with aquatabs. Peace of mind knowing that my water is safe to drink.

Reliable and Convenient Water Purification for Any Situation
I’ve been using the Aquatabs 397mg Water Purification Tablets for various outdoor activities and emergency preparedness, and they have proven to be an invaluable part of my gear. Here’s what stands out to me:Easy to Use: Each tablet is individually packaged, making it easy to grab only what I need for a day of camping or add a few to an emergency kit. You simply drop the tablet into water, wait, and it’s ready to drink.Effective Purification: These tablets have consistently provided clean, safe water. After following the recommended wait time, the water tastes normal, with no unpleasant aftertaste, which is often a concern with purification tablets.Versatile for Multiple Situations: I’ve used these not only for camping and hiking trips but also to ensure safe water during power outages and other emergencies. They’re compact enough to store in a small emergency kit, an RV, or even a glove compartment.Great Value for the Quantity: With 100 tablets in a pack, I feel well-prepared for a range of situations without needing frequent restocking. Each tablet treats a good amount of water, so they stretch even further when I’m careful with usage.Overall, Aquatabs are a convenient, reliable, and cost-effective solution for anyone needing portable water purification.

Excellent for hiking!
I use these tablets when hiking to clean my water from mountain streams. I fill up my water bottle from the stream, drop a tablet in, shake it up and wait 20 minutes. The water is then ready to drink or use in your cooking. When drinking you get a mild chlorine taste, but not terrible. It’s very mild. If you’re using a powder mix like LMNT or something like that in your water, you wouldn’t taste any difference. Highly recommend for hiking or emergencies. Great product.

Peace of Mind
I carry these as backup to my Sawyer Squeeze water filter. They are compact, lightweight, and have worked well whenever I have used them. In the backcountry is where the old adage “an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure” really applies.

Aún no me veo en una situación en las que tenga que probarlas, pero al menos el empaque me dejó satisfecho pues están individualmente bien empacadas, así que espero no ir a tener problemas con ellas en una emergencia.

El producto llegó a tiempo y fue tal cual como lo solicitamos. Buscarlo directo en tiendas es difícil por lo que la compra por Amazon fue una excelente idea.
