1-quart nesting stainless gravity filter with a Sport Berkey bottle, primer and carry case.
$234
Usability
The Go Berkey is not a scaled-down Big Berkey; it is a different use case. One quart and one gallon per hour is unusable as a household filter, but the nesting chambers, the bottle and the case make it the only Berkey that genuinely packs. Judge it against a squeeze filter or a pump, not against the countertop systems, and the 234 dollars reads differently.
- Upper chamber nests inside the lower, taking packed height from 14 in. to 10 in.
- Includes a Sport Berkey bottle, Berkey Primer and vinyl carry case, so it covers both camp and trail
- Stainless construction at 2.4 lb empty, far more durable than plastic gravity bags
- Single Black Berkey element rated to 3,000 gallons, which is well beyond any trip
- Runs on gravity alone with no electricity, plumbing or water pressure
- Lifetime warranty on the stainless chambers and hardware when bought through the authorized dealer
- 1 quart of storage and 1 gallon per hour make it unusable as a household filter
- Expensive for its capacity compared with backpacking squeeze and pump filters
- No NSF certification for any filtration claim; all performance data is manufacturer-commissioned lab testing
- Standalone Black Berkey replacement elements are out of stock industry-wide under an EPA stop-sale order
- PF-2 fluoride and arsenic elements are not part of this configuration
- Priming the element still requires a faucet or the included primer, which is awkward in the field
The Go Berkey Kit is the travel end of the range: a 1-quart stainless gravity system whose upper chamber nests inside the lower for storage, dropping the packed height from 14 in. to 10 in.
It runs on a single Black Berkey element and filters up to 1 gallon per hour with the upper chamber kept full. The kit adds a Sport Berkey filtered bottle, a Berkey Primer and a vinyl carrying case, so it covers both stationary and on-the-move filtration.
At 4 in. across and 2.4 lb empty it is aimed at solo campers, one-bag travellers and go-bags rather than household use. PF-2 fluoride elements are not part of this configuration.
