Emergency Water Packet 4.227 oz - 3 Day/72 Hour Supply (18 Packs) , White

There is not much that I can say about water. It's just water. But i liked the convenience of the water being in these little pouches. I added them to my emergency evacuation Go Bag, and I could squeeze in a few pouches here and a few pouches there, because they were in the flexible pouches. One thing that surprised me is that the water has an expiration date. According to the date on the packaging, I will have to replace it in 4 years.

I've bought these Emergency Water Packets multiple times now, from different sellers and deals, and they've always arrived in perfect condition, no leaks. These 4.227 oz packets are great for emergencies. They're compact, easy to store, and individually packaged, so there's no waste. The water tastes clean, and the packets are durable. Plus, they have a 5-year shelf life and are approved by multiple agencies. I highly recommend them for any emergency kit.This review represents my personal opinion and experience with this product.

Buen empaque buen producto muy practico

Well packaged. One packet arrived damaged so the entire package was wet, but none of the water got into the rest of the stuff in the box.

Great value. But do check the box when it arrives. Had one show up empty. No biggie.

This is filtered water in a polymer foil pouch. Each pouch contains 4.227 fluid ounces. According to their web site they have approval from the USCG, Canadian Coast Guard, EC and NZ. This water has been filtered and filled at FDA certified facilities. The web site says it will stay fresh for 5 years in even the harshest environments. I wanted a way to safely store water in my car. I had heard about the controversy surrounding plastic water bottles, heat from the car, and breast cancer. Don't know if it's true, but it was a risk I did not want to take. I thought of storing bottled water from the grocery store or storing water in glass jars. The fact that the bottles have to be rotated more than I wanted to rotate them made this not an option for me. I might remember my car, but would also have to remember my husband's. Summers where I live soar into the 100 degress. Inside the car is hotter. I needed to store water safely in the car for an emergency. I learned about Datrex. It was a solution to my problems. Each pouch is for one use. The top of the pouch is supposed to rip to open. The pouches I recieved had a tiny hole punched through the area you were supposed to rip, making it easier to open. This hole did not help ripping it open. Photo of the tiny hole on the pouch is enclosed. I had to open the pouch with a pair of scissors. It is advertised as 72 hours worth of water, because this company thinks you shouldn't drink water the first 24 hours of an emergency unless you are sick or injured. This is actually printed on the back of the pouch. Don't know about you, but that is not how I am going to operate in an emergency. Since this product met all of my criteria I was afraid it would taste horrible. Before I tasted it I told myself. "It doesn't matter how it tastes if it saves your life." After cutting the dark area marked for opening of the packet off with a pair of scissors I felt that the water did not come out that easily. I cut the opening larger. Walked into the bathroom so I could spit it out. No need to spit it out. Shock of all shocks, the water tastes good! So glad I found this product. I carry it in my car along with Mainstay Emergency Rations. Both products are made to withstand harsh environments.

Great for the emergency car kit.

Good product
