Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I bought the Grayl Geopress Purifier from Amazon. I read the reviews from other customers and like what I read. When I received it I had trouble trying to filter the water through the filter part instead it was coming out between the containers as I put pressure down. I was disappointed, so I reread the instructions and tried several times. I'm 70 years old, thought I was going to have to return this but I kept trying. First I read others who had this problem of leakage, but I found that after I remove the filter, check it for any damages, God forbid since its made in USA, didn't see any. So tried again, this time made sure the filter was put in correctly,( I assume I didn't do that right the other times), and urea. It was working as I took my time to allow the water filter through the filter. You must make sure your filter is turn completely til you feel a click in. I use a rubber gripper to help me. I'm not that strong to twist things on and off. I hope this helps others. Btw I'm buying another.😉
