Yeah......especially when you compare actual daily use/value of Berkey rather than mostly "insurance" value(bar field use) of our Katadyns.

They should offer you a Berkey distributorship for South West Pacific....ever consider a career in sales?

Haven't heard of Sawyer....I will have to look them up.

I just happen to be in the market for a new hiking filter. The Sawyer Mini seems impressive and for only $20, I can't not try it out. Thank you for the tip.
