LifeStraw Home Activated Carbon + Ion Exchange Replacement Filters

I love this. So much nicer drinking water when I know the bad stuff has been taken out, micro plastics particularly.

This is a great water filter, however I got a faulty one before this. If the water merely drips from the filter - this is not normal, after a few cycles, it should flow albeit weakly.

So disappointed. I really wanted to keep this pitcher, but ended up having to return. The flow rate is incredibly slow - I'm talking over an hour to filter 1 cup of water. It is a full time job trying to keep the pitcher topped up, and I've still never managed to have more than a few glasses of water ready to drink. LifeStraw customer service is awful, despite Amazon being the only way for UK customers to buy their products. I got no response from LifeStraw about the filtering issues, and was also concerned about multiple Amazon reviews claiming to have received fake replacement filters, so had to return this pitcher for a refund.

I purchased the glass water filter jug. The positives are the water tastes fantastic. The negatives are - takes way too long to filter water and the reservoir has to be filled multiple times to fill the jug. It’s a slow drip so you have to keep going back to top it up to get a jug full. I emailed the company from their website link after filtering 8 jugs to say there was an issue and sent a video which you can also see. It was America, they answered quickly and offered to send a new filter cartridge but then they realised I was in the UK so gave me another email. I sent another email to the new address, they were rude and saying our American counterparts don’t understand how we work. That they shouldn’t have said they would send a cartridge but once they had spare parts come in they would send me one. Still no part. I’ve gone back to the American email again and also emailed the address they gave me. Such a shame as the product is very lovely made and water tastes fantastic but sadly I will die of thirst waiting.

Decent water filter but cannot seem to get rid of blue-green algae buildup after a month or so and need to clean again. Also wish it were of the right size to put in the fridge but can't fit it anywhere.

Awful. Just an awful experience all around.

Doesn't fit in the fridge. This needs to be functional, it should be designed to fit in a standard fridge door. This is not fit for purpose.

Didn't work. Did not function at all.

It’s a great water filter pitcher. I can’t verify the claims it makes about what it removes but I trust what they say. The water tastes great! As people said, it is initially slow to filter but increases speed as time passes. Ultimately it is just as fast (or slow) as a Brita, but with better filtration. Just top it up every time you pass!Love that it’s glass although that makes it heavier to lift.

It takes far too long for the water to filter through and it has to be done several times to fill up the jug; almost impossible to do in a day!Having said that, the water tastes good and feels smooth.

A bit fiddily to set up but not too difficult. I needed to use a screwdriver to release bottom part to fit carbon filter. My 7 cup glass water pitcher is quite heavy and I need two hands to lift it when pouring water into a glass. Takes a very long time to fill with water from tap. But I guess that is a sign that the micro filter is doing its job.Filtered water tastes great, so probably worth the effort.

The membrane filter was defective, probably due to improper storage by the seller. The water should be filtered at a steady stream, not at a rate of 1 drop every 1-2 seconds.

Super, das Wasser schmeckt nach absolut nichts und es verhält sich anders im Wasserkocher, daran merkt man, dass es wirklich wirkt. Manche schreiben hier, dass es sehr langsam tropft, das kann ich nicht bestätigen.
