Light and small.

Familiarity:
I've put it through the wringer

I think for what these are they work great. Tabs are tiny and fit in any emergency kit. I’ve tried these as primary purification system on a trip to lone peak and on the cathedral traverse in the Tetons this summer. Even with flavoring the taste is grimace worthy. Probably worth bringing a small bottle filter and these as a back up.

An essential element to my first aid/survival kit

I commonly carry these in my first aid and survival kits whether I'm hiking, hunting, working in the back country (as a fisheries biologist), or on a Search and Rescue mission. As long as you have these tablets and a water bottle, you can turn nearly any source of water into drinking water.

A must have item!

Always good to have these on hand when we encounter suspect water sources in the Backcountry. I use them as a back up when trekking with the My scout troop here is AZ.

What's Not To Like

I used these for a backpacking trip across the Teton Crest! I don't know what they put in these things but they never contaminated the taste of the water and were surprisingly easy to use. We would drop the tablet in and continue hiking a little bit and then it was good to go. Simple and easy. I used one box of these for multiple trips and still have a lot more.

Great item to have

I bought this item from our scout shop to carry and teach some younger scouts how to treat water if they ever needed to. Simple to use and easy for a younger scout to use & understand.

Easy and Effective

Used these in river water scooped straight from the source while on a walking safari in South Africa. Don't taste too bad and I never got sick, so I'm plenty satisfied with their effectiveness.

Basic chlorine tabs

Strong chlorine smell and taste that definitely fades after a while. Light and compact. Recommended.
