“Great filter, robust and reliable. Greetings from Madeira 😌🤝”

Jan. 20, 2026
“After initial difficulties pulling the filter unit out of the housing on the first attempt (I got help from my neighbor), I am now on a trip in a national park in Costa Rica, and the bottle is exactly what I need here! Single-use plastic bottles are prohibited in the parks! Refilling is now possible without any problems!”

“Tested on the Mittelland Canal 👍 .... In 2024, on the Camino, where others got sick from spring water, I was able to enjoy the water without a second thought. Yesterday, I tested the filter in my water barrel — the water has been sitting in there for quite some time. Perfect filter, I love it 🤘 Never another one!”

“Unrestricted access to water along the trail!”

“I am completely satisfied with the filter! It has already accompanied me through Finland and on some routes through Germany. Filtering is surprisingly easy, and the filtered water is definitely drinkable! However, a slight aquatic taste always remains; this is only really pungent in standing waters with a lot of algae and suspended solids.”

“Wild camping on our West Highland Way tour. We took water from rivers and lakes and filtered it. Everything went great — nobody had stomach problems 😉”

March 17, 2025
“The operation is very stiff; it could be eased by improving the grip on the upper part. The water level indicator is hard to see. But otherwise, I am satisfied.”

March 12, 2025
“So far, everything is great, shipping was super and fast. I haven't tried the bottle yet — an indicator on the bottle would be good, so you know when you need a new cartridge. I will post a new review on my Instagram and on the website once I've used the bottle.”

“Hello, unfortunately we haven't had a chance to use it yet ;) The product makes a very high-quality impression and the function is very simple. Best regards, Grandpa Achim”

January 5, 2025
“Hello, the product was delivered quickly and is of very good quality. Unfortunately, I cannot comment on its functionality as it has not yet been used.”

“The lettering was no longer nice after just one week of use (see photos). By now (2 weeks in Madeira) it is no longer visible at all. The bottle is also very prone to scratches and the "rubber" behind the lid has small cracks. I really expected more for the price. I only drank from sources 3 times and had no problems with the water. The purpose was at least fulfilled.”

Sep. 17, 2024
“We were hiking long-distance in Lofoten and bought Bachgold water bottles to have water everywhere. We were super happy with our choice. Bachgold delivers on its promise. Super fast and easy access to the best water! We love it! :D”

Sep. 15, 2024
“Super soft water 💦 comes out, tastes neutral - but pushing it down isn't easy.”

Sep. 1, 2024
“I tried out the Bachgold water filter for the first time while canoe touring in Sweden and I'm thrilled. The filtered water tasted great and all our water bottles were filled quickly. Afterwards, I air-dried the filter each time in a 'vegetable bag'. I can only recommend this product — and their great support for any questions!”

Aug. 17, 2024
“Fast delivery. The product has not been used yet.”

“Simply superb, I'm absolutely thrilled with this filter. The price-performance ratio is perfect. I've found my dream filter.”

July 8, 2024
“👍🏽”

June 25, 2024
“Photo from the office deployment 😉 Everything's great, I'm very satisfied — flawless outdoors 😁”

June 23, 2024
“We took our filters to northern Sweden and also filtered all kinds of water with them in Germany and never had any problems afterward. When filtering, one should not press the filter into the container too hastily and take one's time. I can only recommend a purchase.”

June 3, 2024
“I immediately chose the right water trough (picture) and was very satisfied with the result. The water was clean, tasted good, and was well-tolerated.”
Lab validation
Hollow fiber membrane finer than any known bacteria, virus, or parasite. Mechanical, without chemicals, without batteries.
Up to 1,500 liters of drinking water per filter — approx. 2,000 uses. With a volume of 800 ml per use — XL flows through a little faster. NSF P231 Lab-validated.
The second filter stage binds chlorine and heavy metals and neutralizes taste. Water tastes like water — whether from a mountain stream or a tap.
European reference standard for virus filtration. Each filter undergoes quality control in Zurich — documented, reproducible.
The XL series was for very specific use cases (multi-day tours with high water consumption). Demand is concentrated on the 500 ml format. We are consolidating to the standard line and reducing SKUs.
Yes – existing customers will continue to receive XL replacement filters as long as we have XL filters in stock. Promised for at least the next season. After that, we will check with the remaining XL buyers.
Honest answer: Only if you really need the XL format (very long tours, less refilling). Otherwise, we recommend the standard line (500 ml) – which will last you a long time.
Also discontinued. As long as supplies last, Explorer XL and Adventurer XL remain available. Pioneer XL Cross-Mix has already been discontinued.
Yes — the full 365-day Bachgold® guarantee + 30-day money-back also applies to discontinued products. Discontinued means no marketing push, not less service.
