  1. I got the Waterdrop because you can use it as a gravity filter or just as a straw

    Mine came with a mouth peace and a smaller foldable bottle just like the second option

    So for 30 euros this was a great deal

  2. None of these filter viruses btw, so you can still get sick from farmland run-off or other unexpected upstream polluters.
