Aarke Purifier - Premium Glass and Stainless Steel Water Filter Pitcher, Refillable Filter System and Granules, 2.4L Pitcher with 1.18L Filtration Capacity

This aarke Glass Water Pitcher with refillable stainless steel filter has been a lifesaver for me! I am living temporarily in our vacation home that relies on local public water supply. I was beside myself over the water tasting terrible and not being able to drink it. I even tried boiling it and that made no difference in the taste. I did a lot of research and debated between a water pitcher and a countertop one, or even something with reverse osmosis. For the short time I are here (3 months) I decided upon the water pitcher. I love this one! The glass so far is durable and I am so happy there are no plastic parts! Just what I was after. The value for the price paid isn’t great, however I truly couldn’t find anything else that fit the bill for me. I don’t mind having to replace the filters every 8 weeks since it makes a HUGE difference in the taste and smell of the water. I purchased the 5 cup one which is just right for me. It doesn’t take that long to fill it up. I transfer it into another glass pitcher and then fill this one up again so I always have great tasting water at my fingertips. As far as contaminants, I am not sure how to know how many it actually removes. I am mainly happy to be able to drink good water and not get all nervous and panicky not having any readily available. I am a big water drinker so it is important that it be good quality, which this seems to be. It is quite functional and even though a little bit heavy, it isn’t so bad. To me, it just means that it is solidly made. Thank you.

I really wanted to love this pitcher. The water it produces tastes excellent, and the glass build is heavy, high quality, and dishwasher safe. In the beginning, everything good about it was overshadowed by one critical flaw: I had a difficult time getting the filter system to work properly. It kept falling apart in the pitcher. The company noticed my concern in my earlier review and reached out to see if they could solve the problem, suggesting the issue might have been a defective filter cartridge. I gave that a shot and they sent me a new filter cartridge - and a packet of filter media to replace what I had lost. I was most impressed. The best part is that the replacement cartridge did, in fact, solve the problem and the new cartridge stays together as it is supposed to now. So I give them 5 stars for their attention to customers and their unwavering support of their product. And, as I wrote earlier, I love everything else about the product. Great materials, excellent tasting water, dishwasher safe. So it now gets 5 stars in my book. Highly recommended (as long as you don't mind filling filter cartridges with the media (they're not self-contained a la Brita, et al)).

Super purchase! We are delighted with this water pitcher. It looks wonderful on a counter top (unlike the plastic versions), is easy to fill and the water tastes fresh and clean because of the frequent filter change.

Is this a bit pricey? Yes. Is it worth it? In my opinion, yes! It is made almost entirely of stainless steel and glass (a few smaller parts have thick plastic but otherwise it filters water well and makes the water taste fantastic. Some have mentioned the filtration taking a bit of time, it’s not that long. Maybe a minute or two. It holds a decent amount of water and stays really cold due to the glass pitcher. It is glass, we had one prior to the current one we have because one family member set it on the edge of a counter and it dropped pretty hard onto vinyl flooring and shattered. That being said, it’s held up to hand washing and being knocked around in the fridge and among other dishes. I would easily recommend this and purchase this again. My only complaint is the mess of the type of filter it uses.

A review after using for 10 month. DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY ON THIS. I just changed the filter for the third time, and I noticed the water basically doesn't go through the filter - the filter container is somehow warped! And because it is not properly closed, it basically lost its strength to hold water while filtering it- the water just runs through it. Most of the time, the product service team monitor their product reviews, reach out to a customer, and try to resolve the issue. Aarke never really did that. Considering this one water bottle - costing almost $200, this is a very frustrating. Please, DO NOT buy this product. I'll keep looking for alternatives - this shouldn't be the strongest player in the market. --‐----------------------------------------- Okay. I like the idea that this is mostly glass and the water actually tastes differently. I for sure sense less chlorine in my water. HOWEVER, those rubber parts - around the metal holder and the lid - have such a strong chemical smell that the whole idea of this product, supposedly a heathier choice than Brita, is not really working :( I've been using it for a week and I'll decide if I'll keep it or not after another week of use.

Simple, beautiful and elegant design, made of glass and stainless steel with re-filter system. Filters are made of small pellets free from plastic containers, giving feeling of purity for entire filtration process. I’m very pleased with its quality and performance👌

Great looking product which gives great, fresh tasting water. No longer need a Brita! Other comments have mentioned this but it is definitely on the heavy side and doesn’t filter a big volume of water however we’re only two adults so it suits our needs just fine. Glad to see that the filter granules are also available on Amazon.

I debated a long time about investing in this pitcher. I couldn’t decide between the regular size and the large size, and finally chose the regular size. It fits perfectly in the minimal storage space in my compact refrigerator and holds just the right amount of water to be filled once or twice each day for my needs. The water taste is excellent. The design and weight are perfectly balanced for pouring. It was important for me to not purchase a plastic jug. Until now, I have been purchasing bottled water in glass bottles and wanted to find a more economical way to have filtered water available. I am so happy with this purchase!

We're very much enjoying this water jug. It's esthetically pleasing, extremely functional, and provides peace of mind - no more drinking out of plastic! We were worried it would be delicate (we have young kids: 8 and 5, and perfectly capable of pouring themselves a glass of water) but it's no more delicate than the average glass French press or carafe. The handle is large and well balanced, thd lid stays fixed in place when you pour, and the water filters in a matter of minutes. We're extremely pleased with this purchase, and it will provide safer drinking water than the average plastic brita filter for years to come.

Fast delivery and great product
