These are in my opinion the best on the market. No they do not leak. Just replace the O ring as you replace filters and you’ll be fine, I personally always take a back up when I’m out for more than two days, but have never had any problems. **Q: How small does it fold down to?** A: about the size of wide rim double shot glass **Q: Can you purchase the 1L softflask by itself? Mine got punctured.** A: Thanks for your question. The 1L flasks are not for sale by themselves but our Katadyn customer service team would be happy to work with you in regards to your punctured flask. Please email us here: cs@katadyn.com. Alternatively, the Hydrapak Seeker 3L and 2L are compatible with the befree filter and are good options. **Q: Can i screw the filter on another water bottle?** A: The Katadyn BeFree filter can fit on any 42mm threaded bottle. Hydrapak's 750ml Stash, or any of their Seeker flasks are a good example. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Absolute game changer *by S***N on 12 July 2025* Why did you choose this product over others?: This is my second Katadyn Befree and I love it, I ride my bike in the Peak District of Derbyshire and I really don’t like carrying a full bladder of water in my backpack so my befree is an absolute game changer enabling me to get fresh clean water from one of the many rivers or streams without the weight penalty, it’s brilliant 🤩 I’ve bought another one because one was 5 years old and I thought it a good idea to get a fresh one 👍😎 ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great filter *by A***Z on 28 April 2025* I love this filter.
