Product Reviews

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Bought a Trailshot intending to make a gravity system, Purchased a Trailshot March of 2017. Intending to dual purpose it with a gravity setup. Added supply "dirty" bag, shut off, extra tube, conectors, and my Camelback or Nalgene Canteens. Used thru summer into fall both ways including a 11 day paddling trip on the Canadian border. Only problem is the pre-filter plugging with sediment in gravity mode (drew form bottom of bag via bulkhead thru fitting). It was easily cleared and back in service.

Rated 3 out of 5 by from FUNNY TASTE FUNNY TASTE I owned a few MSR Drom bags a few years ago, black and the drom lites... I could never get rid of that funny taste in the water. I sold them and went with Platypus bags instead... no issues. I love MSR products and the Gravity "Autoflow" is awesome, never had an issue with taste in that big red bag so I purchased this Trail Base setup... and, they have that funny taste! I thought MSR would have addressed this by now. I will be trying (again!) several ways to get rid of it. Last time I tried a lot of different things ... various soaps, baking soda, corn starch, baking powder, Aqua-Sol and even Vodka (because it really has no taste) but nothing worked. I hope these will be better but I don't have my hopes up.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from The only gravity filter you should buy. I work for an outfitter and this is one of the pieces of gear that I will recommend without hesitation. It filters water quickly, is fairly compact, and is easy to use. It works great especially if you're using an Osprey hydration bladder - the Trailshot plugs right into the hose line, no need to remove the bladder from your pack.

Rated 3 out of 5 by from FUNNY TASTE [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I owned a few MSR Drom bags a few years ago, black and the drom lites... I could never get rid of that funny taste in the water. I sold them and went with Platypus bags instead... no issues. I love MSR products and the Gravity Works is awesome, never had an issue with taste in that big red bag so I purchased this Trail Base setup... and they have that funny taste!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Yes Used the MSR on the Three Rivers camping trip in NM . The Trail base gravity system provided most of the drinking and cooking water for the entire group. The water tasted great. The hand pump fits easily in my front pocket and I can throw it to anyone that needs to fill up their water bottle while we are hiking on the trail (fast and easy). Didn't clog the entire trip! Great product

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Perfect design for small rivers and streams! Worked right out of the box and very easy to use and set up. First trip was a canoe camping trip end of summer where we have very dry conditions, and the first camp spot (ocean not lake) had a known stream but this year was very very dry. Had to hike up and luckily this new system of just placing the end of the hose into the small trickle was camp saving. I had been frustrated in the past with scoop type of filter reservoirs this summer (Jasper also had very light trickles in a lot of streams) so this design is perfect! Having the larger bag to scoop when there are larger flows of water is awesome too.

Rated 2 out of 5 by from I would not buy this product again The gravity system works OK, but can be a bit finicky. The trail shot component used alone is useless. The flow rate drops significantly only after about 6 liters. I even purchased a new filter after a couple of backpacking trips... same results with second filter. I'm forced to get a new system.
