Our take on the Membrane Solutions Portable Water Filter Straw

The Membrane Solutions filter straw is a hollow-fiber personal water filter you drink through directly, no pump or battery needed. It weighs about 2 ounces and is rated for up to 5,000 liters, with a flow rate around 500 ml per minute. It sits in the same class as the Sawyer Mini and LifeStraw: lighter and simpler than a pump filter, but it removes microbes only, not chemicals, salt or viruses at the smallest scale. It suits hikers, campers and emergency kits who want a backup filter that takes no space.

Questions and answers

What does it remove from water?
It is a hollow-fiber microfilter aimed at bacteria, protozoa and microplastics. It does not remove dissolved chemicals, heavy metals, salt or the smallest viruses.
How long does the filter last?
It is rated for up to 5,000 liters, far more than most weekend hikers will use. Silty water clogs it faster, so backflush it regularly.
Does it need batteries or pumping?
No. You drink through the straw or squeeze water through it; there is nothing to charge or pump.
Can I use it in muddy or silty water?
It works best in clearer water. Heavy silt clogs the fibers quickly, so let sediment settle or prefilter through cloth first.
How does it compare with the Sawyer Mini or LifeStraw?
It is in the same class: light, no-power straw filters with similar microbe removal. The Sawyer Mini can be screwed onto bottles and bags; the LifeStraw is a simpler one-piece straw. Pick based on whether you want bottle compatibility.
What comes in the pack?
The multi-pack includes several straw filters. Check the pack listing for whether a syringe, pouch or prefilter is included, since the straw alone has no bottle.
