Wir haben uns den Filter als Familie bestellt. Unser Leitungswasser ist sehr verkalt und wahrscheinlich auch mit ziemlichen vielen Schadstoffen voll. Da ich, bald Mama, täglich schon ca 5 Liter Wasser trinke, meinen Körper und Haare mit gefiltertem Wasser reinige und ebenso lieber damit koche und meine Pflanzen gieße, hielten wir das auf Langzeit für eine super Investition. In wenigen Wochen kommt unser erstes Baby auf die Welt und auch ihn möchte ich ausschließlich in gefiltertem Wasser baden und sein Essen zubereiten. Da der Filter bei uns somit wahrscheinlich mehr als 10 Jahre halten wird, bevor er ausgetauscht werden muss, ist alles perfekt- man braucht sich keine Gedanken darum machen, dass man ungesundes Wasser zu sich nimmt. Ich finde das sehr wichtig.
Das Zusammenbauen ging relativ einfach und schnell. Nach dem ersten Durchlaufen war er am nächsten Tag auch schon einsatzbereit. Wir füllen ihn ungefähr alle 3-4 Tage wieder auf- ebenfalls schnell und unkompliziert.
Wir lieben den Filter und empfehlen ihn gerne weiter!

Product is Great!
I need another filter though!
Can you help me out with that?
Thanks Brian

Even though we have not actually used the community water filter, we are happy to have it set up and ready to go. It gives me security knowing that I have a way to purify water from our cistern and to provide safe water for the whole family. Water is something we cannot survive for more than a few days without, so it was first on our list to secure. I won’t even drink tap water without filtering it; there is just too many chemicals, bacteria and pharmaceuticals in the water.

Received our LifeStraw Community system two weeks back. It is a formidable device and definitely will need its own space once in use. In other words, this no counter top water pitcher but rather a serious, high volume, high demand purification
Really intrigued by the backflush component with its implied ability to convert some pretty raw water into safe drinking water. Our use will be more a final purification of rainwater as we lean more and more to off grid
Absolutely blown away by its a ability to purify 70,000 plus gallons. Also like the idea that the filter literally plugs itself up when it reaches its useful life
We sleep better knowing it’s here as it not only gives some protection to us, but our also our friends and neighbors
Probably will order extra filters soon
Thanks

This product is great. I bought it to be ready for emergencies. I live in a small city and our church and city Government are working together to coordinate resources for emergencies. We now have the water situation taken care of.

An outstanding and invaluable preparedness tool. Easy to use and adapt to many scenarios. Being prepared with an efficient way to provide safe water has never been easier, and your commitment to supporting people in areas of great need of safe drinking water with your technology is saving lives and providing hope.

Good packaging and seemed to be easy to assemble. We have not used it yet but expect the same quality of the other life straw products we have.

I worry about infrastructure collapsing especially in these troubling times. I bought this unit in case we have a time come when we do not have running water.
Benjamin L.
Glad to have this as a backup and an insurance for our family. So many long-term storage foods require substantial amounts of water that I'm glad we have this filter.

I think the price was very fair and shipping was prompt, I want to buy a replacement filter, and im trying to contact someone to make sure I get the right one Thanks

Very pleased with my purchase. Thank you!

We really haven't had an opportunity to use the item yet but are very impressed with the work you are doing! Keep up the good work and providing safe drinking water!!

Have not used it yet but tried to call with a question and never received a return call. Makes me a little nervous! Was wondering if someone could help me to turn the top bowl so that I could store it back in the original box. Also wanted to know when you would have replacement filters in stock?

I havent tried the lifestraw. I havent put it together yet. However, I will say dollar for dollar and cost after lots of research it was the best product in this space on the market.

Through RestoringTouch (rtinc.org) we have placed these units in Tibetan villages in China with great success. Amazing units, sturdy and portable!

...my one request is the ability to see the original filter as factory installed. Not sure how to do this, and would prefer to see this part of the product before I put water into it.

It was bigger than I realized and that is OK. The only reason for 4 stars is that the assembly instructions were not great and I remember others mentioning that as well.
Rick S.
Great product. Up in the North Woods in Maine on an island with only lake water. Been hauling in drinking water for years but no more!

I am a big fan of the company. I just ordered the LifeStraw Community...but I think it would be very useful to have a detailed video or a detailed description of the product. Sth where someone could find how the process works, how the maintenance is done correctly and how the product is assembled (how the filter can be changed for example) ...all in ine place.
Also I think I recieved the auto fill-version, but I don’t think I ordered that one...
Anyways thanks for the good work!!!
By the way, I ordered with basic shipping and the delivery arrived within 24 hours, pretty cool.

I just received the Lifestraw Community today in the mail. I believe the assembly instructions are very much lacking. There is no mention in the instructions of attaching the spouts to the safe water container. There is no mention of how the filter can be replaced, even though replacement filters can be purchased. The instructions are in very small print, so for me, with glasses and the beginning of cataracts, I had to get a magnifying glass. There is no mention of the "auto fill kit" and how to install it. I never ordered this, but here it is. Additionally, there is a hone in the dirty water container to mount the auto fill kit, but the kit just wobbles around. I think a gasket is missing. Without installing the auto fill kit, the input holding tank has a reduced capacity, since it will just run out the hole! There is no mention of an auto fill kit in any videos online, or in any material I can find. What happened? Did I get some variation of the LifeStraw Community that had been discontinued? I'm very disappointed in this product and I haven't even gotten to filling it with water yet!.

We live in the country, water comes from a creek, so drinking is an issue.
Love this, easy to care for, and the water is amazing. Have several different
filters, the family uses, and recommend them all. You can call if you have problems,
the company is three to help, and are amazing. It does what you expect it to do, and has been our life saver, stopped the purchasing of bottled water. Easily payed for itself the first year.

We sent two of these to Venezuela and they are thrilled with them.

We are Replenish, and we are continuing our partnership with Vestergaard providing clean water for developing countries with these LifeStraws! Most of our work is in Kenya and is purchased through the warehouse in Nairobi. These 3 units will be going to schools in El Salvador! We are blessed to share this mission with such a great organization and with such an amazing, life-saving product- the LifeStraw!

I've used a lot of water purifiers over the years, both in the home and outdoors. Once I found the original lifestraw, it became my go-to‚ÄĒperiod. I have several different Lifestraw units now and love them all. Recently, I bought the Lifestraw community for use as the final stage for our roof catchment system so we can transition from municipal water. It's exactly what we were looking for. And bonus: Lifestraw contributes to the betterment of the world and to helping the needy with our most basic essential: clean, safe water. Love this company!

We have an unconventional use for this product. Due to the hardness of the water in our area, we collect rain water in order to minimize the "dust" put out by the minerals in the water. We use this in our ultrasonic humidifiers. But it should really be purified first. We'd used the LifeStraw Family for years, but it just took too much time to filter. Went to this "big boy" here. It is really worth the cost.
