Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I have previously used the Brita water container, but the on tap water filter system is wonderfully easy to use!NO more awkard handling of a big water pitcher.I also enjoy the ability to switch between unfiltered and filtered water.It is small in size and not too bad to look at.

ZeroWater ZD-023 23-Cup Water Dispenser and Filtration System Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Get this and drink clean water!

I've been using a zerowater pitcher for about a year.Just got this larger dispenser and couldn't be happier.So much easier than buying bottles and the water is much cleaner and healthier (I add mineral drops to make it perfect).I am sensitive to Chlorine and Fluoride so zerowater makes me feel much better.

Most bottled waters are not nearly as pure as zerowater and contain chlorine, fluoride, or some of both.Lots of companies even add the fluoride after getting it clean.Maybe some people want it, but I don't.Of course bottles are a bad solution anyways, since the plastic chemicals can get into the water, and the bottles themselves create a lot of waste.

Not everyone needs to avoid chemicals in their water like I do, but everyone can enjoy drinking clean water.With this dispenser you can even cook with clean water.I drink the water cold, heat it in my electric kettle for tea, and make soup, all with perfectly pure water.

Just as a note, another reviewer mentioned using a PH test kit for a swimming pool.That test is not useful for drinking water.Typically pure water has a PH of 7, while your pool should be more alkaline (7.2 - 7.8 usually).So, an "acidic" result actually is further proof that the water is pure and below the test kit's range.Tap water tests more alkaline due to dissolved salts/minerals as well as chlorine, fluoride, etc.Because PH is a logarithmic scale, it would be completely normal to require large quantities of more alkaline water to raise the PH of pure water into the range of tap water or pool water.

Product Description:
With its generous 23-cup capacity, this innovative water-filtration system keeps pure, filtered drinking water conveniently accessible--its sleek, space-saving design fits neatly on the counter or on a shelf in the refrigerator. Functioning as both a water filter and a handy dispenser, the unit comes equipped with a push-button spout for simple one-handed dispensing into a glass, water bottle, or other beverage container, or even into a pot for cooking. Unlike conventional two-stage carbon filters, the dispenser's next-generation filtration system combines five levels of water-purifying technology. First, its activated carbon and oxidation reduction alloy removes the chlorine taste typically associated with tap water. Next, its Ion Exchange stage removes virtually all dissolved solids that may be left over from public water systems or even leached into water from aluminum, lead, and other types of piping. Finally, three additional stages of filtration remove other impurities and ensure the water receives the appropriate amount of treatment time to deliver a "000" reading on the included laboratory-grade Total Dissolved Solids (TDS) water-testing meter. Other accessories include a patented dual Ion Exchange water filter, a handy user manual, and $35 in coupons for future filter purchases. Thoughtfully designed, the water dispenser also provides a built-in TDS meter holder, a flip-up lid for easily adding more water, and a shape that completely dispenses all the water inside, which means no stale water to worry about. A useful addition to any busy and health-conscious household, the 23-cup water-filtration dispenser measures approximately 6 by 11-1/5 by 15-1/5 inches and carries a 90-day limited warranty.

Watts 7-PK RO Filters Premier 1-Year 5-Stage Reverse Osmosis Replacement Filter Kit Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I purchased this filter kit for my Watts Premier WP5-50 RO unit. The package's shrink wrap was broken (I guess) in shipping, but each of the canister type filters had individual shrink wrap so I have no worry about dirt contamination. The final 'polishing' filter was not shrink wrapped, but it had end caps so I have no worry there.

Just so this is 'clear', a RO membrane is not included. This is a kit for sediment and carbon filter replacement only, NOT the RO membrane. Still a good price.

The final filter (indeed a 10 inch one) had a sticker on it, with some specs = (Watts Premier, Model RIL-10a, flow 0.5gpm, capacity 1000gal, NSF certified, pressure 25-100psi, temp 32-100f, and flow direction arrow) also the package had a 'Made in USA' flag logo on it.

Just for fun, I purchased a replacement polishing filter for my WP5-50 RO unit at the 'Watts Premier' web site. It had a sticker that read only 'Made in Taiwan' They look to be the same filter with different manufacturers. The Taiwan Watts filter did include the end 'screw in' fittings that may not be needed but are nice to have. Enjoy.

Mavea 1001491 Water Pitcher, Elemaris Kompact with Filter Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)We are very pleased with this purchase. We've had it for about two months.
You can really taste the difference in the water. No additional appliance to run (Deer Park dispenser was our previous water source).
One note: you have to turn the water faucet off as soon as the little door starts to raise up, otherwise it will overfill the reservior and either leak out around the handle area or "contaminate" your filtered water with water that has not yet been filtered.
I'm really glad that they're a "greener" company that recycles and we feel better about the reduction in energy use both by eliminating the delivery of water & running a hot/cold cooler constantly.

4 Gallon Countertop Water Filter Purifier - Save $$$ - Transform Tap Water to Pure Healthy Mineral Drinking Water - FREE SHIPPING* Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I purchased the Zen Water Filtration system about two weeks.I had been using a faucet based Pur filter, which kept leaking as splashing water everywhere.I choose this type of system because of the alkaline aspects of it.Water with Alkaline provides antioxidants, and helps to raise the pH levels, which is good for a lot of health conditions.

The Zen Water system arrived within a few days of ordering it.My order included both the 4 gallon dispenser and countertop models.

I was able to set the countertop model up with about 20 minutes, after reading the cryptic documentation.However, a picture is worth a thousand words, and based on the picture, I was able to set it up.

When I opened the box, I was surprised to discover that both items were in the same box, so I had to sort through the contents very carefully.

Needless to say, it is now sitting on my countertop.It took about 20 minutes before I could see some water coming into the dispensing chamber.When it was about 1 quarter full, I tried tasting the water, and I have to admit, I was not impressed.However, I waited until the chamber was completely full, and it tasted very good.The water has a very smooth taste and I don't taste any powder or residue from going through the filtration process or that I experienced using the Pur water filter.

I tried comparing the water taste with water from several other systems: from my faucet, Brita and Pur water filters. The Zen Water system tasted significantly different.The water from my faucet made me think that I was drinking pure chlorine, the water from the Brita and Pur filter tastes like there was chauky it, but the water from the Zen Water Filtration system had no odor, and was very easy to drink.

I intend on buying a few stainless steel water bottles so that I can replace the Brita filter that I was using at work.

I compared this water filter with the Santevia system, which cost $200.They both use the same filtering methodology.The Santevia does mention that it is BPA free (for those who don't know, that means that the plastic will not bleed into your drinking water, which occurs when using plastic bottles).I have compared the taste of the Santevia with the Zen filter and the tastes are very similar. The overall construction of the parts seems relatively the same.So for me it made more sense to purchase this model.

5 Stage Reverse Osmosis Water Filter System With Storage Tank Removes Fluoride Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This seems to be a great RO system once you figure out how to install it...The instructions that come with it are pretty poor.If you aren't familiar with a modest amount of plumbing, have someone else install it for you.

A few clues to make this go easier for you:

Not all the fittings that come with the system will necessarily work with YOUR current plumbing.

The color coded tubes didn't match the instructions.This doesn't matter EXCEPT FOR ONE: there is one tube with a little restricted fitting inserted.This is for your waste line.IT IS ABSOLUTELY NECESSARY TO GET THE SYSTEM TO OPERATE!This is what creates the back pressure for the system.

Looking from the front,
Your water input to the filter (from your cold water line) goes to the bottom right fitting (into the first big filter, it is labeled "IN" above the fitting.
Just above that is a "T" fitting, the open port goes to your tank.
They send a shutoff valve that goes on top of the tank that the nylon tube goes into.
On the left side of the membrane (lower horizontal cylinder) are 2 fittings, one used already, the other one goes to your drain (use the saddle valve provided).
The last tube goes on the left side of the top cylinder (your final filter) goes to your faucet.

Tips for your waste line:
IF you use an air gap faucet (required in some places, prevents drain backups from going into the RO system), the drain restrictor won't fit on the faucet end so turn the tube around and have the restrictor in the fitting towards the RO membrane.To use an air gap faucet, you will need to do some creative plumbing to get the different size tube from the faucet to your drain.There are 3 ports on the faucet (1 on a normal faucet), 1 for clean water from your final filter, 1 normal sized coming from your membrane, and one larger tube to go to your drain.I got my faucet at my local plumbing supply house.(Home Depot didn't have one).The air gap faucet does "burble" for a while after using the water but I consider it a small price to pay to make sure my system stays clean.

Tips for starting up your system:
When I first connected my system, I connected the water line to the input.I disconnected the tube from the leftmost carbon filter and attached a different tube and ran it into my sink.I turned the water on and flushed the excess carbon out of the filters for 5 minutes.This way all that carbon didn'tget into my tank and RO membrane.I have no evidence, but I believe this will extend the life of my membrane a little.After connecting everything, I turned the system on and nothing came out.It took about 10-20 minutes for the system to build enough pressure to come out of the faucet.I followed the instructions and ran about 10 gallons through the final filter before using the water.

I also added a quick connect "T" in the line going to my faucet AFTER flushing the system of carbon and ran one side to my faucet and the other to my refrigerator so I have clean ice and cold water.I did the flush first so I wouldn't have to flush the carbon through my ice maker for who knows how long.When I replace the final carbon filter, I will disconnect my fridge until after I flush it again.

Also, since you are stripping your water of most or all of the minerals, please get some good quality liquid trace minerals to add back in with every glass you drink.Our bodies are meant to get a significant amount of minerals from our water.

Enjoy!
