(More customer reviews)I have used Polar Pure for a number of years, sometimes under difficult conditions. It's much better than any other chemical treatment I have found. I don't recommend drinking stagnant water from a swamp, but if you treat it following the manufacturer's instructions, you can do it and won't get a disease or parasite.
One bottle of this product will treat a LOT of water...at least in the thousand liter range. Most products are sold as little tablets and only treat about 50 liters. This is hands-down a better product.
Like all chemical treatments, it only kills living organisms. If the water is toxic, you are still out of luck.
Great product. I swear by it.

Product Description:
Whether you're traveling in unfamiliar countries, camping in the great outdoors, or just want to be prepared in case of emergency, the Polar Pure water disinfectant is a space-efficient, reliable choice. Polar Pure uses a unique bottle design to deploy pure crystallized iodine into contaminated water. This iodine destroys waterborne pathogens, including the Giardia cysts and microorganisms (viruses) that normally pass through filters. All you have to do is simply add water to your Polar Pure bottle--which features a particle trap to prevent the loss of iodine crystals--and you will create a saturated solution to disinfect your water. The water cap then acts as the measuring cup, dispersing the required amount of Polar Pure to disinfect each quart/liter bottle of water.
Polar Pure offers several advantages over other water-disinfectant methods. It's far more portable than carrying household chlorine bleach, which is often available only in a dilute solution when traveling in many parts of the world. It's more convenient than bringing along enough fuel to boil water every time you want a drink, especially at altitude. And unlike most water filters, Polar Pure doesn't get clogged over time. In fact, a single bottle of Polar Pure treats up to 2,000 quarts of water. Other advantages: Polar Pure doesn't deteriorate in extreme temperatures, it has an indefinite shelf life, and it's small and light enough for backpacking or traveling.

(More customer reviews)I've been using this a few weeks so far, and it seems very sturdy. I attach it to my bag with a carabiner and have seen no signs of breakage while hiking with the bottle. I love that the bottle doesn't leak, and it's a BPA-free product (good for me, good for the environment). Plus, I have not noticed any unusual smell/taste while drinking from the bottle (unlike most reusable plastic bottles), but I have not tried hot beverages in it yet. The wide-mouth IS very convenient for ice cubes and cleaning. Highly recommended!

(More customer reviews)I've played with a couple of different brands of space blankets and these blankets are of fine quality. They suffer the usual short comings of this material (tears spread easily) but on the grand scale of space blanket brands, you are getting one of the better quality blankets. For example, one of the cheaper brands I have tried experienced flaking of the mylar coating after (admittedly) rough handling. The brand being reviewed here did not suffer from this flaking. Definitely recommended.

(More customer reviews)This cleaning kit is ideal for keeping your reservoir (bladder) clean. The brush for cleaning the tube does a particularly good job. The plastic thingy for drying the reservoir is great as it keeps the two sides apart, for complete drying. My only complaint is that the kit only includes 2 cleaning tablets. You'll be back for more in a few weeks.

(More customer reviews)My family enjoys a tradition of attending my college's homecoming football game every year. After noticing a lack of port-a-potties last year during the tailgating and spending most of our time standing in line with full bladders, we insisted we would find a in-car solution this year. After scouring the internet and local drugstores for a solution (female urinals, mostly), I came upon the Travel John urinals on Amazon. They seemed PERFECT for our purposes and I immedately bought them.
These were GREAT for men and women alike. We no longer had to spend our tailgating time standing in line to use the disgusting port-a-potties. We had our stash of Travel Johns in the car and had complete privacy while emptying our bladders. The women especially enjoyed the convenience of an instant relief when nature called. A couple of people near us were complaining about the lines so we told them all about Travel Johns and gave them our box. They were THRILLED with the idea and couldn't wait to get some of their own.
I have already bought another larger pack...these will come in handy during many roadtrips. I travel 65+ miles to work every day and almost dehydrate myself just so that the urge doesn't happen until I get to my destination. No more...I will always feel confident to know that I have a few Travel Johns in the car if I need them. And no need to get off the highway to find a bathroom either!
The Travel Johns themself were very easy to use. Just unroll, position, and go. They instantly turn to gel and are completely leakproof. They're easy to dispose.
The ONLY complaint we had is that they only hold 28 oz. of liquid. After a few drinks, a couple of males in our group would have liked to see a Travel John that could hold more liquid.
Either way, this product is definitely a 5-star rating, and we will absolutely have these for next year's game.
