And the article describing what's in the report re: microplastics: https://www.consumerlab.com/news/consumerlab-tests-reveal-big-differences-in-water-filter-pitchers/10-12-2020/ https://www.consumerlab.com/news/consumerlab-tests-reveal-bi...
- rickydroll 3y ago1) Britta Soho / longlast filter (96% of microplastics removed) 2) Aquagear pitcher (59% of microplastics removed after 2-3 flushes) 3) Aquasana and Pur pitchers (80% of microplastics removal after 3 flushes of filters) Even though the Pur Filter cleaned up the water better overall, it took more flushes (3-4) to reach those numbers, and the filter supposedly emitted a bunch of carbon particles. I use the PUR filter, and it seems to work okay. It solved my problem of Water tasting funky. It would be nice if it also truly reduced microplastics and PFAS chemicals, but I don't have a lab capable of verifying such claims, so I need to trust folks like Consumer Lab. The important thing to remember is that no matter what these tests say, they are a single sample in time. Manufacturers enshitify products for the benefit of shareholders whenever possible. None of us knows if the filters will continue to work as tested.
