Aqua Optima by LAICA Oria Water Filter Jug 2.8L, 6 Filter Cartridges,Blue

Amazing value for money with 9 filters! It makes life so much easier to know i dont have to order filters for a long time. Jug is sturdy and a good size. Water filters through nicely and not too slowly. It took me a couple of days to realise that there was packaging inside the lid which meant I couldn't use my tap spout through the top - i was taking the lid off. Not a criticism but just to make others aware to take it off.

Attractive jug, with navy blue lid, looks great in the kitchen. The cartidges have to be soaked in tap water for 10 mins then rinsed under running water for 1 min, then placed in the jug and allow to fill and pour away twice, before ready to use. Once you have got your head around that your good to go and the water definitely tastes better, well it doesnt really taste of anything but thats the point of the filter in the first place. I found my tap water had a bit of a metallic taste but not any more and I'm delighted with my purchase

Very good value for your money

I wanted a second filter jug to use outside of the fridge for filling kettles etc to minimise energy costs. I liked the size of this jug and the ease of filling it. Its nice to look at and fits into fridge doors easily. It is so easy to fill just by holding it under the tap, no flaps to lift. I received 6 filters with the jug I purchased which is fantastic value for money. The filters allow the water to flow quickly into the jug which is great, no need to stand around waiting, but the quick flow makes it easy to over fill the jug. I have given 4 stars because the jug cannot be filled to 2.8 litres without it pouring unfiltered water alongside the filtered water into your glass. Other reviewers mentioned this overflowing this issue, which is an issue if 2.8 ltrs of water is placed in the jug. I decided that for my needs, ie using it outside of the fridge I was happy to limit the amount of water to the amount that fills the white fill compartment which is less than 2.8 ltrs that the jug could hold. I can still have spillage if I’m pouring into a narrow necked bottle. I haven’t returned this item as I am ok with its limitations because of its ease of use and it meets my needs. I can’t actually hold a 2.8ltr jug it’s too heavy to carry without spilling.

This is a reasonable priced water filter I bought it because my local water company put too much chlorine in the water and it definitely removes the chlorine taste from my drinks

I didn't drink tap water cos it tasted weird and I had to put juice in to take away the funny taste. This is marvellous. It takes the weird taste out of the water and because it fits in the fridge door it's always chilled and refreshing. My husband swore by bottled water but now he drinks this when he's in the house. There are plenty of filters and I just put a fresh one in when it starts to have the weird tap taste again. I've saved loads on bottled water. It's easy to refill, just stick it under the tap or use a jug.

Really like this filter. You can pour water straight from the tap without touching the lid. The flap goes down when filling and pops back in place after. Easily cleaned. Less limescale build up. Nice green colour too.

Got it at a good price. Plenty of replacement cartridges.

J adoreeeeeeeeee

Il me fallait une nouvelle carafe filtrante car mon ancienne Brita était défectueuse et le coût des cartouches était à des prix exorbitants. Je me suis orienté sur ce modèle car le système d'accroche de ladite cartouche me semblait bien plus facile que le poussoir de la marque Brita. je suis pleinement satisfait de cette marque le passage de l'eau et bien plus rapide, le résultat en filtration fantastique je recommande vivement en plus excellent rapport qualité prix quantité du nombre de cartouche, le seul point négatif c'est que la carafe n'est pas pourvu d'un conteur visuel de l'usure de la cartouche mais bon je pinaille.vous pouvez acheter les yeux fermés merci encore à Amazon pour ça rapidité d'envoie.

Ho da tre giorni la caraffa , e avevo intenzione di aspettare un po' prima di fare una recensione, ma tre giorni sono bastati per capire che mi ha migliorato la vita. Il sapore dell' acqua è ottimo (anche se per onestà devo dire che l' acqua del rubinetto a casa mia aveva già di suo un sapore abbastanza buono ) ed è più leggera e rispetto all' acqua di bottiglia è più "fresca " . Sinceramente bevo molto più di prima e sono una di quelle persone che fanno fatica a bere . Indubbiamente rispetto all' acqua del supermercato si risparmiano soldi e anche l' ambiente ne giova . Per quanto mi riguarda è veramente meraviglioso non dover più trascinare pesanti cestelli e portarli a casa affrontando tre piani di scale senza ascensore . Preciso che da allergica al nichel bevevo acqua in bottiglia perché quella di rubinetto dicono che abbia i metalli pesanti e questa caraffa li filtra : effettivamente non ho avuto problemi di reazioni allergiche . Credo di aver fatto l' acquisto più azzeccato che potessi fare , sono felicissima

I've been using this filter for several months now to filter the hard water from my tap. The filtered water is smooth and it makes a huge difference - my tap water is unpleasant and I always bought bottled water instead. It filters water fast and doesn't need to be filled up so often due to its capacity. I haven't even changed out the filter yet after 3 months because I haven't noticed a difference in water quality. Aqua Optima claims that the filters do not release impurities back into the water..ever.. which I cannot test, but if true, there would be no downside to using these filters until they stop working. So the 6x filter back could last me years. Note that this is also because the filters do not filter bacteria. I think this is a good thing, because it prevents bacteria from building up in the filter and allows to be used longer than 2 weeks. If you're specifically looking to get rid of viruses and bacteria, you'll have to look elsewhere. For hard water, look no further.

Perfect
