“It's a great portable water filter, but I''m giving it 3 stars because it has this very strong plastic taste to the water. I get that the bottle is plastic, but I'm surprised that the filter doesn't take out that taste as well. It kind of makes me wonder what else it's not filtering out. It's such a popular item with people who know water filter bottles that I feel like I need to give it a chance, so I'm working to see if I can get the smell/taste out.”
