Why We Like The Gravity BeFree 6L Microfilter
The Gravity BeFree 6L Microfilter is simple and easy to use. We fill it up in our nearest stream, hang it on the closest tree or the back of our car, and let gravity do the work. It cleans water fast with its proprietary flow technology, letting us get back to doing what we want to sooner.

Great for groups
Worked great, maybe an included stand would be useful. Used to collect water from a lake, hung on tree for camp members to fill up and use for food prep.

So light! So easy!
I just got back from a 4 day back country mountain summit. I used this filter because I knew I had some big water carries and didn’t want to hand pump them. This was my first time using this filter and I loved it. Fast flow, easy to fill. Just perfect.

Lightweight and small footprint for backcountry packing. Great for when a water source isn’t next to your camp!!

Great for base campsite cooking station.
It has been a good product. We have used it at camp while taking day hikes from our campsite. No issues, and I have used Katadyn filters for 30 years. They are worth the money. Ingesting a parasite could be a lifetime health issue and ruin a trip. Water is too heavy to carry.

Another great katadyn product
Worked flawlessly while hunting in Colorado. Its heavy when you fill it and have to walk back to camp but its worth it.

Platypus Replacement
Updated Review: Worked great for the first few trips. Was very optimistic about it. Suddenly on my next trip it reduced to hardly a trickle. Went through all the steps to clean out the filter and get it working again. Took it home to do a more thorough cleanse. Slightly improved, but as soon as I got out again on another backpacking trip it reduced to a tiny trickle. Tried again to clean it out according to instructions. Still the same result. The squeeze filter works great, unfortunately they need to go back to the drawing board and figure out this gravity system. I’m going back to Platypus for a gravity filter.
