Our Verdict

LifeStraw’s Universal Water Bottle Filter Adapter Kit is a fantastic addition to the lineup. The versatility is key with this as you are provided with two different drinking caps which can be used on narrow or wide mouth bottles from a range of brands, allowing you to keep using your favourite bottle safely. There is also a leak proof lid which screw on top of either of the drinking lids for added security.

This works in a similar way to the classic straw design with the hollow fibre membrane inside traps any unwanted particles and removes the vast majority or protozoa and bacteria too. It simply attaches to the bottom of the drinking cap so that you can then simply screw it onto your usual bottle. This set is amazingly versatile and is a great addition to any drinks bottle when you’re venturing into areas where you need to filter water.
