Katadyn Hiker Pro Replacement Cartridge Reviews

March 9, 2019A must have on the trail for me.
So it takes a few minutes to set it up and put it back up, not a big deal considering I can draw water from the smallest of trickles or even have to get to the level of the water. Building tiny damns to raise the water level to 1 1/2" or so or just dig a small recess for water to pool in and you are filling up where no one else can. I have also filled others water supplies when… read more their filter clogged. I am quite happy with it and plan on keeping it for a long time. Due to poor planning on my part I have even used it to draw water out of a tire track puddle in a dirt road. Water came through clear and I did not get sick, must have worked.

July 6, 2017Excellent Filter
I've been using the Hiker Pro for about 6-7 years now, and am so psyched these filters are still around. The filter pumps about 1L/min if you're cranking on it, and really does improve the taste of questionable water. I'd recommend this to any friend looking for a work horse water filter.

July 30, 2016Carbon makes a difference
Katadyn makes it easy to change out this filter and provides all the pieces to make the purifier fully functional -as good as new when you install. This filter, with charcoal, makes questionable water taste incredibly good.

July 22, 2016Necessary replacement
After my original cartridge got too messed up using on silty rivers, I bought this to replace it. Haven't gotten to use it yet, but I'm confident it will work every bit as well as the original when it was new.

If you're like me, you push the life of your gear further than you probably should. But when it comes to clean drinking water, it's definitely best to play it safe. This replacement filter installs easily, is a lot cheaper than buying a whole new setup, and lets you enjoy your water, without having to worry about giardia ruining your backpacking trip.

May 24, 2016Keeps the fresh water flowing
Over the last 25 years I have used a lot of different purification/filtering methods and devices. The Hiker Pro is hands down my favorite. 50 easy pumps and you have a liter of drinkable water. The filter cartridge is easy to replace and their isn't much to maintain. Solid and reliable. I find soaking the filter over night in filtered water overnight help with issues related… read more to clogging. Will continue to replace the filter as needed!

January 4, 2016Say NO to Giardia
I picked up a replacement filter for my Hiker Pro, as the original one has seen better days. It's easy to replace, and the Hiker Pro has most definitely protected me from the evils of un-treated water on many occasions.

I never go backpacking without the Katadyn Hiker and am super happy to be able to replace the cartridge through Backcountry. Light, easy to use, easy to replace the filter.

August 11, 2015This also fits the base camp pro model
Just wanted to note that I wasn't sure this would fit the base camp pro model from a few years ago, but was pleasantly surprised when it fit.

August 8, 2015Pretty awesome
Awesome filter, super easy to change out. Only thing is that it came with a filter "wrap" that screens anything that's gotten by the float filter, but didn't really tell you what it was. I had to google a bit to check it out. Shipped incredibly quickly. Super duper light weight, so I have an extra for my extended backpacking trips.

July 8, 2015Simple filter that does the job
You cannot beat simplicity paired with reliability. Which is exactly what the Hiker Pro offers. A caveman could filter it's own water - it is that easy. Installation of the new filter is quick and easy. Just unscrew and then re screw.

June 7, 2014Hiker Pro makes you a pro
Rather than buy a new filter or switch to a different brand, just replace the filter to your life saver. And make sure you replace your filter when you should, there is no reason to use an old filter and risk getting sick from one of your favorite past times. Replacing the filter is painless and easy. After pumping water in Escalante, Uintas, and the Wind River range, it was… read more time to replace my filter. I usually use coffee filters to extend the life of my filter.

June 5, 2014worth the money
I've been using the hiker filter for 10 years. I usually go through 2 cartridges a year since I backpack so much. The only downside to this filter is it's sealed and hard to clean. As long as you filter clear water you will be fine. I just did a 5 day trek though Buckskin Gulch and Paria Canyon in Southern UT/AZ border. The water was thick and muddy. even with a coffee filter and… read more the extra screen the filter was clogged in a day and took very long and slow pumps to get water but it still worked. This would of happened to any filter. Some newer models have a way to backwash them. with this model you can use a large syringe to backwash it. That helped a lot with the muddy Paria River. Other than this one trip the filter usually last me half a season. I did the entire JMT with it. no problems at all. I hike over 200 mile a year and this filter has never failed. I've seen other problems with the steri pen, and MSR pumps. This is a time tested filter.

December 1, 2013It is a replacement filter so....
It does the same thing as the filter that comes with the hiker pro so performance is great. Replacement filters are a necessary evil when using water filters, but it is great that the hiker series have easy to find and replace filter cartridges

July 15, 2012Mmm swamp water
I love the hiker pro. I have used it to drink some water that would make your mother cry. And have yet to get sick. I have used these filters for years and haven't had the slightest problem. Highly recommend.

June 9, 2012Sweet and Simple
I have been using these filters for eight years. They are easy to replace and last a long time. Dry it out completely after use. If it is really discolored, or it is harder to pump water through it, then it is time to replace.
