For those considering purchasing a Lifestraw, I would strongly recommend stepping it up to the Lifestraw Go Bottle.

what is your reasoning? I don't know much about these, so I'd legitimately like to know.

Convenience. With the Lifestraw Go bottle, the filter is an integral part of the water bottle. Fill up the bottle with the unfiltered water, screw on the filter cap, and then you can sip filtered water on the go.

With the basic Lifestraw, you would have to fill a water bottle with the unfiltered water, then open it and insert the straw to drink. Sure, not a huge pain in the ass, but for $10 more, why not have the filter built directly into the bottle?

If you go to the respective Amazon product pages and look at the various stock images, you can see what I'm talking about.

Agreed. Those are great prices. Time to grab a couple of Family sets at that price.

as a reminder, use Amazon smile to support a 2A organization.

I ordered 2 (seperate orders since they each had a $5 amazon pantry promo credit for no rush shipping), but forgot to do amazon Smile on the first. I updated the link which should take you to amazon smile if you have one set up.
