Your cart is empty.The Platypus QuickDraw Microfilter System is an easy-to-use, fast and ultralight fill-and-squeeze filtration system with the best user experience in its category. The simple and rugged design is a two-part system: the 1L QuickDraw Reservoir and the QuickDraw Microfilter. Made of Platy’s proprietary tri-layer film, the QuickDraw Reservoir is taste-free and durable while featuring a wide mouth and convenient handle for hassle-free filling at any water source. Using hollow fiber technology, the QuickDraw Microfilter is capable of filtering 3L of water per minute, while an ergonomic clean side spout makes it easy to deposit filtered water into any clean reservoir or directly into your mouth. The ConnectCap allows the filter to easily fill nearly any water reservoir by filling them through the drink tube with the bite valve removed, or it can use a Platypus bottle adapter kit to fill wide-mouth Nalgene, HydroFlask, Cnoc, and Yeti Yonder water bottles. Two easy and effective cleaning methods—shake-to-clean and tool-free backflushing—ensure fast flow rates stick around for the duration of a trip. With an attached flip-up clean side cap and a grippy-but-not-sticky filter housing, the QuickDraw eliminates frustrations like leaking water in the pack, lost small parts, and dirt-caked gear. The QuickDraw Microfilter System weighs 3.3 ounces total. The filter cartridge measures 5 x 1.8 inches and the reservoir measures 11.5 x 5.5 inches. Limited lifetime warranty. Made in the USA.

I have been using the platypus for quite sometime now! I stumbled across it on my thru hike of the AT in 2022 and have never used another.The quality of it is even better than sawyer IMO.It’s easy to use, just fill the dirty bag, attach the filter and squeeze. It’s simple as that.The durability is great. I’m pretty hard on my gear and it hold up. I’ve taken it on international hikes in Iceland, Norway, Scotland, England, and Canada, on planes, in the back of trucks, and in my pack with it getting slammed around and it still works perfectly.I’ve never cleaned one, I error on the side of just buying a new one every 3 months.The speed of it is unmatched. Why wait for a sawyer, when you can quickly just find your water, fill up, and squeeze and in 2-5 minutes depending on how fast you are you can drink!

I tested it before my backpacking trip with the nasty water from my farm pond (I could see tiny stuff swimming in it!) and along with aqua tabs I didn't get ill. My included picture shows raw pond water on the left and filtered pond water on the right. The water sources I used on my backpacking trip were much cleaner and the water was better tasting. The filter is lightweight and rolls up compact in my backpack. It's a bit slow filtering the water and scooping up water does allow some sand and rocks to get in the dirty water bag. It didn't clog during the trip and is easy to back flush with the plastic water bottle adaptor included.

Had a few other filters and now that I’ve had this a while I can say it’s definitely the best and quickest filter I’ve had, the back flush function to clean it makes it so much easier to maintain also

You are provided a platypus soft bottle with this filter. It has a special threaded opening. If you puncture or lose this bag your filter will not work with another bottle, so it’s pretty risky to take in an off road or backpacking scenario. I wish I had sent it back. Instructions were also confusing so I had to watch a YouTube tutorial
