LifeStraw Home– Water Filter Pitcher, 7-Cup, Glass with Silicone Base, Wisteria, for Everyday Protection Against Bacteria, Parasites, Microplastics, Lead, Mercury, PFAS and a Variety of Chemicals

Excellent value and performance and esthetically pleasing! The water tastes great and doesn't leave my water bottle smelling like chlorine. The first few filterings scared me because of how slow it filtered, but it has definitely sped up over the past couple of weeks. It's fast enough to keep up with a dinner party of 8 without anyone waiting for water. I also like how the pitcher can simply be held under a faucet to fill, and the lid on top will flip under the pressure of the flowing water, then close itself when it's done. The lavendar is more vibrant (and less grey) than pictured. Definitely worth the investment.

Stylish, functional and healthy. Before purchase I was concerned that several reviewers complained about how slowly the water moved through the filtration process. Yes, for the initial filter set up the flow seems painfully slow. However, once you begin using it it flows a bit faster and you don’t even notice the flow speed probably because you aren’t waiting for it. Each time I use it I refill it back to the top. The container holds 7 cups which you likely won’t use all at once. If you think you will, consider buying a model with a larger container. The container is stylish and high quality. Since I can’t see it actually filtering, I assume it is removing all the bad ‘things’ that the company’s description states which is fantastic and does more than most competitors. Considering purchasing another — with one for the counter top for coffee and cooking and one for the refrigerator for cold water drinking.

I’ve had many other filters in the past but lifewater really tastes the best. It’s more expensive and the filters are pricey but totally worth it, water tastes so much better at my apt where I have pretty hard water. It doesn’t take any longer to fill the another pitcher, of course the first few fills take a bit but it speeds up. The cap is a bit finicky to get it to not leak out as you pour but very doable. The glass is a bit heavy but I like how sturdy it feels and I don’t have micro scratches all over it like with my last brita.

Sturdy and beautiful. It’s a bit heavy when it’s full but that’s because it’s thick glass. I love how it looks and my water tastes great. It holds more water than I thought it did. I understand it says exactly how much it holds but when you pour it the top empties out quickly due to the shape. The base is very wide though so it’s deceiving kind of. There’s plenty of water in there that lasts me all day, multiple days if I’m not super on my water intake for the day haha. Look, I don’t know what people are complaining about this pitcher filtering too slow. Does it come out as fast as your faucets? Obviously not. It filters faster than the stream of water coming out of my fridge though. I think the videos of it dripping painfully slow are when the reservoir you put the water to be filtered into is low. You have to put more water in to get the stream to start coming out quickly again. If there’s not a lot of water in there waiting to be filtered it’s gonna start to drip slowly. It seems pretty common sense to me. Maybe people just have zero patience. I wake up, take it out and fill it and set it aside. Start to do whatever I have to in the kitchen, like make coffee, clean, make food etc. In like 3 minutes of doing tasks it’s filtered the water that was in there. I put more water in it and just try to keep topping it off. All said and done it takes about 20min maybe to fill from empty. I’m still in the kitchen doing things. It’s really not a dramatic pain like some of these reviews are making it seem. Personally I don’t super trust filters where the water just goes through as fast as your pouring it in. Also I bet these are the people who pour themselves a glass of water from a water filter pitcher and never top it off before putting it back in the fridge. That’s all you really have to do. Anyways, I’ve had this pitcher for a little over a month now and I love it.

I got this water filter to eliminate chlorine taste from our tap water, which is otherwise quite clean with moderately low PPM and regular testing by the local water utility. It's good at getting rid of the chlorine taste. And I like the quality, durability and the design. I wish it'd get rid of more salts & make the water taste sweeter. The big issue with this filter is that it takes a long time to get even half the volume of the filter's capacity. You can only fill 2 cups of water at a time to the intake chamber. You then wait for some time for the water to filter & trickle into the main jug, and repeat the cycle. You have to repeat this cycle multiple times to fill the jug halfway.

I bought this filter after comparing a few options and reading this one filters out pfas and micro plastics in addition to metals, bacteria, etc. I was a little skeptical after reading the reviews and seeing so many people say it was too slow and barely drips. I decided to take a chance anyways and I am very happy the purchase. The initial assembly is a bit slow as the first couple run through a take a while, but it does get a bit faster with each filtration. It holds enough water to fill my 40oz RTIC tumbler and 32oz Hydroflask before needing refilled. Best of all the water tastes AMAZING! I love the glass and how cold it keeps the water in the fridge compared to plastic containers. I also love the color and the silicone base. I would highly recommend this product to anyone who can have a bit of patience for some really tasty water. It may not be ideal for a larger household but for myself and my partner it is great!
