I've used the Squeeze for about a year now, with no problems. I really like it. I got a Mini (ooooh, shiny...), but it seems like it would be most useful spliced into a "hoser" system; so far, I don't see anything else about the Mini that would make it inherently better than the Squeeze, including weight.

The Squeeze is a great filter, though. And, no problems with the Sawyer bags, either.
