Review 1

I have mixed feelings about this pitcher. It's well designed, and the water tastes phenomenal, better in fact than the bottled waters (yes, I've tried voss, smart, alkaline and other 'fancy' waters). However, the flow rate on the filter goes from 'wow that's pretty slow,' to 'I guess I'll go watch 5 seasons of the wire' within a few days of moderate use. After a month of use, it takes around 3hrs for water to filter through a topped off upper reservoir. This needs to be done twice to fill the pitcher. So the wait is obnoxious at best, when all I want is to fill my water bottle before work – great water is one of the few pleasures I can look forward to during my busy days.

That said, it's really good water, so I've now bought a second pitcher to double the fun of watching water trickle through at a rate slightly faster than glaciation and somewhat slower than plate subduction.

If anyone from aquagear is reading this, make a faster filter, or sell a larger model with a big reservoir so I can fill it once a day and forget about it.

Having owned a Brita Water Filter, then a Distilled Water maker and then a Big Berkey Water Filter System for many years, I have always been on the lookout to improve the quality of my drinking water. So I am thrilled to have recently discovered the Aquagear Water Filter Pitcher. I have owned this water filter for about 2 weeks a now and there is no doubt that the Aquagear is the best water filter I have ever used.

The set up was fast and easy, including the flushing of the filter, all taking less than 3 minutes. I love the pour spout feature, which allows “hands free” filling up with water and the water tastes amazing.

I can’t believe anyone would complain about the flow rate because the flow rate is fine. The Brita has faster flow rate but who cares if the Aquagear takes one minute longer to fill up when you are getting 2000% more contaminants removed?

And what other product removes close to 100% of Chlorine, Flouride, Lead, Chomium 6, Mercury, and Trihalomethanes? I think most people already know about the dangers of Flouride, Mercury and Lead in their water, so let me point out the ill effects of the lessor known contaminants: Chloramine, Trihalomethanes, and Chromium 6 that the Aquagear takes head on as well:

Chloramine:
Water utilities across the country are changing the way they treat our drinking water. They’re switching from chlorine, the primary disinfectant used in drinking water systems for over a hundred years, to the alternative disinfectant chloramine at an alarming rate. According to “Citizens Concerned About Chloramine”, chloramine causes problems with your immune system, respiratory, skin, digestive and gastric, kidney and blood.

Trihalomethanes:
According to the EPA, The use of chlorine to disinfect water for the purpose of drinking produces low levels of various disinfection by-products with the trihalomethanes and haloacetic acids being the most common. The EPA states that “Some people who drink water containing total trihalomethanes in excess of the MCL over many years could experience liver, kidney, or central nervous system problems and increased risk of cancer.”

Chromium 6:
We can thank Erin Brockovich for bringing Chromium 6 into the light of day, but despite her efforts Chromium 6 is still a major issue in our drinking water and not well known by the general population. A recent report by the nonprofit research and advocacy organization Environmental Working Group (EWG) says that nearly 200 million Americans across all 50 states are exposed to unsafe levels of chromium-6 or hexavalent chromium, a heavy metal known to cause cancer in animals and humans. Human studies by government and independent scientists worldwide have definitively established that breathing airborne chromium-6 particles can cause lung cancer, and the U.S. Occupational Safety and Health Administration sets strict limits for airborne chromium-6 in the workplace. Whether inhaled or ingested, it can also cause liver damage, reproductive problems and developmental harm.

I purchased this product in October, 2017 and started using it February 11, 2018. Aquagear claims 90.6% Fluoride removal which is why I bought this pitcher. My water district adds fluoride at 0.7 mg/L. I had Northeast Laboratory Services test the filtered water March 12, 2018 and the result was 0.6 mg/L. This is definitely not 90.6%—–it is practically 0%.
I do not recommend this. This is perhaps why they don't yet have NSF certification.

I check carefully for leakage each time–there isn't any.

Cons:
Chlorine taste in the water remains !!!
The user has to wait for the filtering to finish before pouring.
It is not possible to see how much water is filled up.
Price 69.95 is too high.
The main problem the chlorine taste remains in water after filtering. I believe it is because the water flows through the filter too fast – as a chemist, I really doubt at this high speed the system can filter out what it promises: chlorine, fluoride and all other contaminants.
Seems like a scam to me.

UPDATE: Yep, looked at the reviews: someone even used fluoride testing kits and proven that the claims are false!
It is a SCAM!

I read quote a lot of the reviews online prior to purchase – and unfortunately I'm having similar issues to most other people. The filter speed is painfully slow.

The first week of use was fine, I'm into my 2nd week now, and I'm getting drips. I've re-flushed the filter and it just doesn't work. I'm not sure how the company can manufacture such a hit and miss product. I wasn't even using tap water! I had an old brita pitcher that I was replacing and had one fresh brita cartridge/filter left so I thought I'd fill that first and use the brita water for the aquagear pitcher to try and get some “extra life” out of the 

Review 6

Everything about this product is legit. I knew the filtering process would be slow so no worries here. The only downfall is the handle/spout cover materials. The spout cover doesn't flip when you pour so the water tends to go everywhere. The handle tends to bend at the slits down the middle when picking up/pouring.ive figured out a way to save time filtering the water though. I bought this 2.5 gallon jug from Walmart that the aqua gear filter bin sits in perfectly. I then turn the faucet on at the same rate as the filter.You just have to make sure it fits in your sink.'

Conclusion

Best of all, it comes with a LIFETIME GUARANTEE, any defect or breakage you have with the filter pitcher will be covered by us. Experience cleaner, healthier and fresher tasting water with the Aquagear Water Filter Pitcher.
