Review on πŸ’§ Efficient Countertop Gravity Fed Purification Activities for Emergencies by Sabrina Guarino

Revainrating 5 out of 5

The giant water filter tank is surprisingly good

I was surprised at how huge it is! Check out the last image in the product photos which shows a woman's back in the kitchen. This may give you an idea of its size and scope. [Also, just for fun, look at the picture that says "Travel" and see them photoshop the product next to the guy in the chair.] Either way, you screw the 3 filter tubes into the top cylinder, You screw the grommet into the bottom cylinder, all by hand, and use the included screwdriver to screw the handle onto the lid, and you're good to go. I was surprised how slowly the water went from the upper to the lower chamber, I think after getting used to the Brita I expected it to go faster. But the power is so great! Simply fill the top cylinder and wait a while and you have neutral-tasting water ready to drink. As the lower tank gets low you will notice that the flow out of the nozzle will slow down a bit. Time to refuel! This is a disadvantage compared to a table water filter that connects to a faucet for home use. With these you never have to refill, but with this one you will. While you can use it in your kitchen, make sure you have space for it since it's so big. You'll probably always want to wipe down a shiny silver surface regularly to keep it looking elegant. However, it appears to be intended for road trip use or car camping use. And what impresses me the most is the lifespan of the filters. 9000 gallons. That throws a lot of competitors out of the water (sorry for the pun). My only concern is that this company will sell replacement filters after we've used 9000 gallons? They are available now ($25 for a filter) with at least 4.5 stars.

Pros
  • Durable test results
Cons
  • Only available in black
