Best Rolling Kitchen Stool for Disabled

By Robert Finch

Machines and physical strength are fine, but they’re only there to support disabled persons in their everyday life. When you use a kitchen stool, it’s like you get an extra hand to help you in the kitchen. Whether you need extra holding power due to paralysis, muscle weakness or impaired movement: we can help. With a hydraulic wheelchair lift, for example, even disabled persons who need walking and balance assistance can safely and easily make vertical transfers with minimal effort.

Imagine that a disability is a common or recurrent but not a lifelong illness. You can avoid a lot of trouble – and frustration – if you choose the right kitchen stools for disabled. If you ask yourself, what can help me to be mobile anyway, try changing your viewpoint. In this sense, the right stool can get you back to doing your daily chores without needing to have full strength in your legs. That’s already a pretty good reason to get one!

Sani Sticks Review: The Perfect Solution For A Better Smelling Sink

By Robert Finch

Image from Amazon

The indoor kitchen sink is such a great invention. We can't even imagine what life must have been like when everyone had to go out and pump water from a well or bring it up from a creek in order to do the dishes or put on a pot of water to boil. But when your sink stinks, things can get frustrating quickly. If you've tried dumping baking soda and lemon juice down there, cleaned it the best you can, and still can't seem to get rid of the smell, you'll be interested in our Sani Sticks review.

What's Causing The Stink?

There are two possible reasons for bad smells in your drains. The first possible culprit is sewer gas that's leaking back through the pipes and up your drains. This sometimes happens when a sink wasn't made with a proper trap to block the smell or if the existing trap gets a leak. In either of these situations, you'll need to call a plumber.

The other possible reason for smells is something you can take care of yourself, and this Sani Sticks review is here to explain how. These smells come from rotten food, grease, and oil that's gotten trapped in the drain over time.

This is especially an issue if you have a garbage disposal. There are several possibilities for cleaning out these drains; are Sani Sticks the best? Let's find out.

What Are Sani Sticks?

Image from Amazon

You may have seen Sani Sticks advertised on TV. They are simply thin sticks in various colors and scents that you stick down your drain for instant relief to your smelly drains. They work on smells right from the beginning and they help prevent clogs; but they aren't really meant to break up an already existing clog if it's bad. If your sink is badly clogged and not draining at all, then deal with the clog first and then use Sani Sticks to keep it from happening again. If your sink isn't fully clogged but is starting to drain slowly, give Sani Sticks a try.

How It Compares

Sani Sticks was the first stick or strip-type cleaner on the market and is still a popular choice. We thought we'd compare it to a couple other strips and one non-strip cleaner that all claim to do the same job. In addition to the Sani Sticks, we looked at these options:

Green Gobbler Drain Strips
Remelos Drain Sticks
Glisten Foaming Cleaner

Price

Ease of Use [4 Stars]

This might be the easiest thing you'll ever use. Simply put one stick down your drain once a month and forget about it. In fact, this would have been five stars if it weren't for one little thing: sometimes the sticks don't want to go down a shorter drain and you may find yourself needing to break them in half to get them in.

Value for Money [5 Stars]

These offer great value for money, if they work for you. They cost only around 30 cents per use, so if you've got three sinks to use them on, you're talking about less than a dollar a month to help prevent clogs and unpleasant smells. The upshot? At this price they're absolutely worth giving a shot.

Sanitizing Results [3 Stars]

User Sani Sticks reviews are all over the place. Some people swear they work just as they're supposed to. Others claim they did nothing. The sanitizing power of these sticks will depend on how well you manage to get them wedged in and what the problem is that's causing your stink in the first place.

Green Gobbler makes a whole line of products meant to keep your sinks smelling nice and clear of clogs. The drain strips are slow-dissolving but concentrated enzymes that help to break down the matter that causes clogs and stinks.

As with the Sani Sticks, it's important to remember that these drain strips aren't designed to break up a bad clog. They're designed to prevent clogs in the first place. If you've already got a clog, use something that will clear your drain and then use Green Gobbler drain strips to keep it from happening again.

Price

Ease of Use [4 Stars]

As with the Sani Sticks, all you need to do is put one of these down your sinks once a month. As with the Sani Sticks, you might have to break them up to get them down certain drains.

Value for Money [4 Stars]

These are slightly more expensive per use than the Sani Sticks, but the difference isn't huge. You'll be paying something close to 40 cents per use with Green Gobbler; but if it works for you, that's still excellent value for money and worth a shot.

Sanitizing Results [4 Stars]

Most people are pleased with the results they get from Green Gobbler. They can break up an existing clog if it's just a minor one, and they do a good job of protecting your sinks. However, it's important to note that they have no real scent of their own. The Sani Sticks offer a pleasant odor; these simply get rid of the bad ones.

Remelos Drain Sticks

Drain Cleaner Sticks Keep Kitchen Bathroom Drains Clear,Non-Toxic Bathroom Sink Drain...

Remelos drain sticks are the only one in our review willing to tell you exactly what's in their sticks: amylase, protease, lipase, and a non-pathogenic bacteria. The enzymes and bacteria together break down greases and oils, fats, soap scum, and hair.

These drain sticks come in several odor choices, including orange and lemon. Otherwise, they work the same way as the two sticks we've already reviewed.

Price

Ease of Use [4 Stars]

These are used in the same way as the Green Gobbler and Sani Sticks. They are slightly smaller, however, which means two things. First, they don't need to be broken up to fit in most sinks; which is a plus. However, they also don't seem to work quite as long.

Value for Money [4 Stars]

These are the cheapest per use that we found in our Sani Sticks review at between 25 and 30 cents, depending on where you get them. However, they break up a bit faster than other sticks and may need to be used more often than once a month.

Sanitizing Results [4 Stars]

Honestly, when we saw the price on these we thought they wouldn't work as well as the Sani Sticks. They actually work better. Not amazingly better, but slightly better. However, bear in mind that you may need to use these sticks every two weeks, so it's possible that if you used the Sani Sticks that often you'd see better results, there, too.

This is the final item in our Sani Sticks review, and it's a bit different from the rest: purposefully. If you're interested in something other than a stick to put down your drain, this might be the right cleaner for you. This is a pre-measured, foaming cleanser with a bleach alternative that you use once a week in your sink and garbage disposal.

This is not as environmentally friendly as the sticks, but it is safe for your pipes and septic system. The main difference between this and the sticks is in what it reaches. All the sticks and strips are passive cleaners, meaning they work as water hits them and washes them around. This one is more active: it foams on purpose so it can reach up, around, and under everything to clean your entire garbage disposal, from blades to splashguard, pipes to sidewalls.

It breaks down anything that's threatening to clog your pipes, leaves behind a nice lemon scent, and sanitizes the whole mechanism. Just note that this is designed to clean your garbage disposal and not the other sinks of the house. That said, the garbage disposal is usually the one most likely to smell.

Price

Ease of Use [3 Stars]

This isn't hard to use in any way, but it's not quite as simple as the sticks. First you run a stream of hot water down your sink for a minute. Then you place one pack into the drain and turn on the disposal. Once it's done, you have to rinse the sink. This means a minimum of standing at the sink for two minutes, and it should be done once a week.

Value for Money [3 Stars]

Compared with the sticks, you're paying a lot more for this cleaner. The final cost is around a dollar for each use and nearly $4.40 a month in cleaning just one sink. That said, do remember to balance this with the fact that this cleaning reaches every hidden nook and cranny of your garbage disposal.

Sanitizing Results [5 Stars]

Performance is where the Glisten cleaner really shines. It does a brilliant job of eliminating odors, sanitizing, and even extending the life of your garbage disposal. We particularly loved that this product sanitizes your drain, which is something the other products don't do.

Conclusion

Sani Sticks are the gold standard of drain sanitizing sticks and strips, and we felt they held up in this review. Yes, you can get cheaper, but you have to use the cheaper sticks more often. Yes, the Green Gobbler works just as well; but you don't get the nice lemony scent (or rose scent, or orange scent) that you do with the Sani Sticks.

We did love the sanitizing quality of the Glisten cleaner, and if you're concerned about reaching every nook and cranny of your garbage disposal with a sanitizing cleaner, then you should give Glisten a try. However, they wouldn't be our first choice, partly because of the relatively high cost per use and partly because we'd need another solution to clean the rest of the sinks.

The main question in this Sani Sticks review is whether these little enzymatic cleaners will work for you. Some people haven't been pleased with the way Sani Sticks worked; however, in most cases there's a good chance this was because users were trying to make Sani Sticks work in a sink that was already too well clogged. If you're just looking to break down a minor slowdown in your sink or prevent clogs entirely, Sani Sticks will work well for you. And at the price, they are definitely worth giving a try.

Overall, we think these do what they say and offer an impressive level of value for money. We give them 4.5 out of 5 stars and use them in our own homes.

What Is a Faucet Aerator and Should You Install One?

By Robert Finch

Do you wonder if there is anything you can do to reduce the cost of your water bill? If you feel like the water coming from your tap splashes around unnecessarily, then your faucet may be missing an aerator. During day-to-day use it may surprise you how much water is being wasted. But by utilizing a faucet aerator, you can decrease the cost of your water bill and keep your cash in your wallet where it should stay. Now, you might wonder, what is a faucet aerator and do I need one?

The Verdict

What Is A Faucet Aerator?

Aerators are essentially small accessories that screw onto the end of your tap's faucet. Usually they are small wire mesh screens that, as the name suggests, ‘aerate' the water by taking a single stream of water and separating it into multiple tiny streams.

As a result, air is mixed in with the water flow. By diluting the stream of water with air, faucet aerators greatly reduce the volume of water flowing from your tap, which effectively reduces its gallons per minute (GPM).

Remarkably, faucet aerators manage this while also maintaining a high-pressure flow in addition to reducing the amount of splashing in sinks. Faucet aerators also force the water to flow through a smaller space, which further reduces GPM.

All of this sounds great, but there are more perks to installing a faucet aerator than just higher water pressure and reduced GPM. After identifying what is a faucet aerator, it is now time to explore why you should install one.

Why Should I Use A Faucet Aerator?

Image source: Pixabay

There are two primary reasons homeowners use faucet aerators on their taps: to save water and to save money. Unused water flows down the drain every time you turn on the faucets in your home. Everyday activities, such as washing your hands, filling the kettle or cooking pot, washing the dishes, or any use that requires water, can unnecessarily contribute to water wastage.

How Do I Choose A Faucet Aerator?

Faucet aerators come in many types, shapes and sizes. They are not all the same, so there are a few key factors to consider before purchasing and installing one.

How To Install A Faucet Aerator?

Installing faucet aerators on taps throughout your home can cut water wastage by roughly 30% without any reduction in water flow or pressure. By following the below steps, you'll be well on your way to achieving just that.

Turn off the water supply to the faucet.

Unscrew your old faucet or aerator by turning it counter-clockwise. If you are using a wrench, be sure to protect the faucet with either tape or a rag to prevent scratches.

Turn the water on and let it run for at least five seconds. This will flush any residue that may by lingering inside the tap and its threading.

Once complete, turn off the tap and thoroughly dry the faucet.

Place a towel or rag over the drain to prevent any washers or grit from the faucet from falling down the drain.

Remove the new faucet aerator from the package and make sure to always follow the manufacture's instructions and safety guidelines.

Place the faucet aerator in position and turn clockwise to screw securely in place. As mentioned in step 2, if you are using a wrench, make sure to use tape or a rag over the faucet aerator to prevent any unwanted scratches or damage.

We would recommend hand tightening the faucet until it's snug before using a wrench. Be careful not to over-tighten, which can potentially damage the threading on both the taps faucet and the aerator.

Turn on the water and check for leaks. If you have any leaks, try adding Teflon tape to the thread of the aerator before screwing it in position.

Maintenance

The Verdict

Image source: Pixabay

A faucet aerator is a recommended addition to any household. Whether you decide to replace a single faucet or add one to every faucet throughout your home, doing so will have tremendous benefits to not only your water usage and efficiency but also to your utility bill.

These small changes can produce big results over time, and we hope this article and step-by-step instructions has helped you to answer the question: what is a faucet aerator?

Best Faucet Water Filters

By Robert Finch

Water filters offer several benefits aside from cleaning the water you drink. Most water filters do a great job of removing that terrible taste we often find in municipal water supplies. If that’s not a good enough reason to install one, consider the money they’ll save you by conserving water at the faucet and reducing the amount of bottled water you buy.

Health issues related to contaminated water rose over the last few years. Coastal areas and water supplies near rivers can become polluted overnight due to any number of dreadful reasons. Every home needs a faucet water filter system in place to provide clean drinking water for you, your family, and your pets. So, we put together a list of the best faucet filter of 2018 to help you find the right one.

How We Chose the Best Water Filters

Our goal for this article was finding the best faucet water filters available this year. Most water filters remove chlorine, fluoride, lead, and other trace minerals and chemicals pretty well. So, how well the filter cleans water is not the principal reason we chose any of the filters on our list. We graded each one based on the cost, savings, ease of installation, and its lifetime.

6 Top Faucet Water Filters

These filters aren’t listed in any specific order. The filter systems vary based on price and ease of use, so we left the list unordered for that reason. Check the buyers guide below for more information on which filters we recommend and why we prefer those filters. Our purpose here was to find the best filters, so you’re safe buying any of these filters based on whatever criteria you desire.

This faucet water filter looks sleek and packs in a lot of features. It’s durable and easy to install plus it won’t throw off your kitchen’s style. It’s easy to install and doesn’t require any tools. If the aerator on your faucet is screwed on too tight, you might need a pair of pliers, but it won’t require any special skills or knowledge to install easily. It won’t work well with pull out type faucets.

It uses activated carbon filters created from coconut shells which is one of the most environmentally friendly ways to manufacture activated carbon. Another benefit of creating activated carbon this way is it traps contaminants and trace minerals better than other filters. Thousands of tiny holes wait inside these small filters ready to catch whatever comes at them.

The filters last a long time with regular use and are inexpensive to replace. The entire unit is available on Amazon for $36.89. Replacement filters cost about $25 for a package of three. That’s roughly a year of clean water for around $50. That saves you hundreds of dollars at the faucet plus you can skip buying bottled water and use reusable water bottles. This filter’s key features include:

Each filter cleans about 100 gallons of water
It has a no tools needed installation design
LED light changes color to indicate filter end of life or clogs
It removes over 60 contaminants and trace minerals
Almost no chance of a water leak during the filter’s lifetime

PUR 3-Stage Horizontal Water Filter

PUR 3-Stage Advanced Faucet Water Filter, 7.7-Inch by 3.2-Inch, Chrome

This filter mounts horizontally instead of upright like it’s cousin above. This style eliminates a lot of issues caused by modern faucets or specialty faucets. Some pull out facet handles don’t work well with vertical filters. Using this horizontal model almost guarantees it will work with any tap. Installation is easy and doesn’t require special tools or skills.

You can order this filter from Amazon for $39.99. It uses the same filters as the PUR filter above which come in packs of three for about $25. This filter offers more options on color and comes in platinum, chrome, white, black, or steel colors. White or chrome works well with almost any kitchen style but having the extra color options is a nice bonus.

You can’t go wrong with either of these filters from PUR. This filter’s key features include:

Each filter cleans about 100 gallons of water
No special tools or skills are needed to install it
It comes in five colors
LED light changes color to indicate filter end of life or clogs
It removes over 60 contaminants and trace minerals
Almost no chance of a water leak during the filter’s lifetime

DuPont Electric Metered 200-Gallon Faucet Mount Water Filter

DuPont WFFM350XW Electric Metered 200-Gallon Deluxe Faucet Mount Premium Water Filtration...

It is easy to install, and no special tools or knowledge is necessary to get it working. It is a horizontal filter, so it works with most faucet styles and handles.

It has an electronic display built into the end of the filter. It shows you the amount of water that it filtered for you so far plus lets you know when to replace the filter. Replacing the filter is simple and takes less than a minute to accomplish. The digital readout updates automatically when you remove the filter cover, so you don’t need to worry about forgetting that part.

This filter comes in chrome or white which should match any kitchen color scheme. This filter’s key features include:

Each filter cleans about 200 gallons of water
Digital display shows gallons cleaned and filter life
No special tools or skills are needed to install it
It comes in two colors

You can order this filter from several sellers on Amazon for between $23 and $30. The filters cost about half the price of the filter system depending on which seller you choose. It’s a vertical mount faucet filter, but it sits far enough away from the faucet to accommodate most faucet handle styles. It won’t work well with pull out faucet handles or pull out faucet necks.

This filter system is easy to install, and no unique skills or tools come into play. Brita is one of the biggest names in faucet water filters because they manufacture durable, reliable filters. This filter’s key features include:

That makes it more tolerant of faucets with pull out handles or unique designs.

You can order this faucet filter system from Amazon for $19.99, and a package of three replacement filters is $27.99. Considering the long lifespan of these filters, this is the most economical filter system we found. The filters clean about 320 gallons of water before they require changing. That’s about three times longer than the average faucet water filter lasts.

This system is slightly more complicated to install than the other filters we listed but doesn’t require any special tools or skills. It uses a special adapter to secure the filter to your faucet that adds a step or two to the installation process. It’s still pretty easy to install and comes with clear instructions and a picture guide to installation.

It’s bigger than most filter systems to accommodate the long-lasting filters. That could be an issue for older faucets that may not support the weight very well. This filter’s key features include:

Each filter cleans about 320 gallons of water
No special tools or skills are needed to install it
It removes 99.99 percent of contaminants and trace minerals
It’s leak-proof if installed correctly
It has a faster water flow rate than most filters

Faucet Water Filter Buyer’s Guide

Image by Steve Johnson via Pexels.com

The first thing to consider before you buy a fault filter system is your faucet. Low profile faucets or faucets with a detachable neck perform poorly with most water filter systems. If you have either of these faucet types, the filters we listed probably won’t work well with your faucet. The smaller, horizontal filters could work, but your best option is to seek a filter system designed for your faucet.

Consider the water in your area. Most cities and rural areas have some kind of website, extension service, or government agency that tests water in your area. They’ll have information on the contaminants you need to worry about, and some advice on water filtration as well. Use these sites to help you choose a filter system that works with your water.

Making sure the filter captures the contaminants specific to your water supply is the most critical aspect of selecting a filter system. If you know the filter works with your faucet type and captures all the necessary contaminants, filter lifetime is the next most important factor. If you’re good about keeping this maintained like air filters and smoke alarms, you should be ok with any system. If you forget a lot, buy a filter unit with long-lasting filters to be safe.

Those are the most important things to consider during your filter shopping adventure. Avoid buying the same filter your neighbor purchased or falling prey to any number of marketing gimmicks. Do your homework and select a filter you know fits your faucet and captures the contaminants that your water contains.

Small details like color or LED lights are less important than knowing the filter works for your water. Most of the filters on our Best Faucet Water Filters of 2018 list come in at least white or chrome, so they should match any kitchen color scheme. Avoid buying the right color and forgetting to get the best filter for your area. The main areas to focus on include, in order:

How thoroughly does the filter clean the water and does it clean contaminants in your area?
How easy is the filter system to install and maintain?
How does it measure up on removing odors and flavors from your water?
What are replacement costs over time for filters?
What colors and styles are available?
Pricing is the last thing to consider on something this important.

DuPont WFFM350XW Electric Metered 200-Gallon Deluxe Faucet Mount Premium Water Filtration...

We like the Waterdrop 320-Gallon Long-Lasting Water Faucet Filtration System because it filters almost anything out of the water. It has a long-lasting filter that’s good for at least 300 gallons of water. This filter system cleans nearly 1,000 gallons of water for less than $50. If it installs on your faucet, you can’t go wrong buying this one.

If you need a horizontal filter model, buy the DuPont Electric Metered 200-Gallon Faucet Mount Water Filter. It cleans about 200 gallons of water per filter change, and it captures almost all the contaminants commonly found in drinking water. The filter’s horizontal installation gives you more options to adapt it to your faucet.

Our Final Thoughts

Don’t cheat yourself or your family by buying the cheapest water filter system you can find. Do the research and learn about your local water supply. Most of the filters on our list catch any contaminant or trace mineral out there, but make sure before you take our word for it. Investing in a water filter helps protect your health and saves you money.

PUR Water Filter Reviews

There is a long list of PUR products on the market. They make pitcher filters, and of course, the PUR water filter faucet mount.

For this piece, we’re focusing on the faucet water filter rather than the pitcher filters. While these are fantastic products, the PUR water filter faucet mounts provide much more utility for the home. You can add them to any faucet and have clean water from the tap, rather than wait for it to filter through the pitcher’s filter.

The PUR Classic Faucet Filtration System (FM-2000B) is the most affordable PUR water filter faucet mount you can purchase from the company. There are some older markets you can find from secondhand distributors, but this one is the cheapest you can purchase on the PUR online store.

Like the majority of the PUR faucet products, the one-click installation makes the Classic filtration system easy to place on almost any faucet in your home. The only limitations for the Classic are pull-out and handheld faucets, but none of the PUR filtration systems will work with these.

The PUR Classic is certified to remove 99% of lead, 96% of mercury, and 92% of certain pesticides along with over 70 other contaminants.

SKU: FM-2000B
Color: Black/White
Dimensions: 7.74 W x 3.20H x 7.30 L
Warranty: 2 Year Warranty
Filter Type: PUR Basic Faucet Filter

Best Features

The place where the PUR Classic Faucet Filtration System shines is in price. It’s only $20 to buy one of these units from the PUR website, and replacement filters will only cost you $12.99 a pop. PUR recommends changing your filters every 100 gallons, so your $13 will go a long way.

Another of the leading characteristics of the PUR Classic is its ability to influence the flavor of the water. You’ll find this characteristic with all PUR filters in this overview, but the Classic will perform just as well regarding taste at a lower price point.

Buy Now

Drawbacks

The PUR Classic, while cheap, isn’t necessarily the best choice for a faucet filter. Those who are interested in purchasing one of these products are likely looking for one that can last years, so the price of the unit might not be the biggest concern for everyone.

One of the biggest drawbacks of the PUR Classic faucet filter is the speed at which it dispenses water. No faucet water filter is going to provide a water flow that’s as fast as the faucet without a filter on it, but this model seems particularly slow.

At times, it’s as though the filter is almost dripping the water into your cup or bowl. While this isn’t the end of the world, it’s definitely a downgrade from higher-priced PUR water filter faucet mounts.

Review Feedback

The reviews and user feedback for the PUR Classic are a bit mixed. Some users love the affordable option from PUR, while others complain about the slow water dispensary rate and the filter’s tendency to leak.

While leaking isn’t a universal problem, it’s one that comes with the territory of faucet filters. Although some reviews mention leaks associated with the PUR classic, they aren’t as widespread as we’ve seen with other filters. PUR uses a metal fastener, which makes leaking less of a problem. Some other faucet filters use a plastic fastener, which will leak much more frequently.

Overall Thoughts

The PUR Classic is a solid option out of the PUR collection of water filters. It doesn’t have many unique characteristics, though, and there are a few other selections from PUR you might find more interesting.

The Classic is best for those who infrequently use their faucet filter, or want the cheapest option available. You may want to look at some of the other options we included if you want a filter that’s sure to get rid of almost any contaminants and has some added quality-of-life features.

The Basic Faucet Filtration System is similar to the Classic we listed above with a few small improvements. Like the Classic, the Basic filters 99% of lead, 96% of mercury, 92% of certain pesticides, and over 70 other water contaminants that could be plaguing your tap water.

The Basic’s biggest improvement is the CleanSensor Monitor technology. The light on the filtration system tells you when it’s time to swap filters, making it simple to understand when you need to make the switch.

SKU: PFM100B
Color: Black/White
Dimensions: 75W x 2.87H x 5.25L
Warranty: 2 Year Limited Warranty
Filter Type: Basic Faucet Filter

Best Features

The PUR Basic is a slight upgrade from the PUR classic regarding design and accessibility, but the rest of the characteristics aren’t too different. It’s only $5 more for this model so it may be worth the upgrade for a lot of households.

Accessibility, ease of installation, and the ability to see when it’s time to replace the filter are the best features on this model of PUR filter. It doesn’t hurt that the faucet filter is one of the more affordable options from PUR, either.

Buy Now

Drawbacks

Like the best features, the drawbacks of the PUR Basic Filtration System are similar to those of the PUR Classic. The water dispense rate is a bit faster, but not enough to make much of a difference.

Those who want a fast dispense rate in their water filter will be a bit disappointed with this one. Like the Classic, the Basic filtera a wide range of water contaminants – much more than some other filters do. It will be enough for most applications, but some contaminants might still slip through the cracks.

Contact your local water supply to find out what contaminants might make their way into your water system so you can see if the PUR Basic is enough filtration for you.

One unique negative of the PUR Basic is the static nature of the filtration system. It doesn’t swivel out of the way like the other PUR products – where you place it is where it will stay. This can mean some inconvenience if you’re washing larger pots and pans in your kitchen sink.

Review Feedback

The reviews for the PUR Basic Faucet Filtration System are a bit more positive than what we’ve seen from the PUR Classic, suggesting that users and reviewers were pleased with what they saw.

There were some mentions of the filtration system cracking or leaking after months or years of use, but these appeared to be the minority of cases. Still, it’s worth noting that some of these filters aren’t as durable as others. Thankfully, there is a two-year limited warranty on PUR faucet filters.

Overall Thoughts

The Basic is a slight upgrade from the Classic, but probably not enough to turn too many heads. It probably isn’t worth making the switch from the Classic to the Basic for the minor quality of life upgrades it provides.

The PUR Advanced Faucet Filtration System is one of the best you’ll find on the market. Apart from the Bluetooth model we listed below, this is the filtration system for those who want to be sure that their filter removes all possible contaminants.

The PUR Advanced has the same certifications as the two we’ve listed above, and the CleanSensor technology helps users understand when it’s time to change their filters.

SKU: PFM400H
Color: Chrome/Metallic Grey/Stainless Steel
Dimensions: 6.75W x 2.875H x 5.25L
Warranty: 2 Year Limited Warranty
Filter Type: MineralClear

Best Features

One of the best features of the PUR Advanced is undoubtedly the MineralClear filter. This filter is more powerful than the PUR basic filter and can do a lot more regarding filtering your home’s water supply.

On top of that, the Advanced filtration system has much better water pressure than the cheaper models. Overall, this is the superior product regarding PUR faucet filtration systems. The filter replacements and the unit itself are a bit more pricey than the ones we’ve listed, but perform up to their higher price point.

Buy Now

Drawbacks

While the PUR Advanced filtration system is one of the best we’ve seen, one of the drawbacks comes with the ongoing price of the unit. While the filters the Advances system uses are much more powerful than the basic filter, they cost more and seem to require replacement a bit sooner.

You’ll end up paying on both ends for this filter – both the unit and the ongoing cost of filter replacements. This won’t matter to some but is still worth noting.

We’ll cover the second drawback in the feedback section since we only saw this negative in some user reviews of the product.

Review Feedback

The review feedback was positive on the whole, but one problem did arise when we took a look at some user reviews posted on Amazon. After a few months or a year, some users began to experience sputtering from the faucet when they turn the filter on.

Others even complained about the water spraying in all directions. We did not experience this sputtering in our testing, but we weren’t able to use them for as long as those who purchased the Advanced filter for home use.

Of course, this issue is not universal. Many other users wrote that they had nothing but positive experiences with this product. Still, it’s worth considering this feedback before you buy. Thankfully, there is a 2-year warranty on these PUR products.

Overall Thoughts

While some users reported issues with this product, we think it’s the best of the bunch. The sputtering issue doesn’t seem to be too common, and the PUR warranty relieves some of the concerns we have about receiving a replacement filtration system.

This is the top-of-the-line product from PUR, and we think it represents the best value of their faucet filtration systems.

The PUR Bluetooth Ultimate Faucet Filtration System is the most expensive unit in the PUR library and boasts some unique features that no other PUR features have.

The filtration and water pressure are the same as the Advanced filtration system, so there’s nothing new there. We’ve also seen similar concerns with the Ultimate, including some users reporting sputtering after a few months of use.

SKU: PFM800HX
Color: Chrome
Dimensions: 6.75W x 2.875H x 5.25L
Warranty: 2 Year Limited Warranty
Filter Type: MineralClear Filter

Best Features

The best feature of this filtration system is what makes it unique: its Bluetooth capabilities. You can sync the system with your smartphone and track your water usage.

Other than that, this system is very similar to the Advanced system and contains the same positive characteristics.

Buy Now

Downsides

The biggest downside of this filtration system is the price. It’s $44 on the PUR website for this faucet filter, and the only added benefit you receive is the ability to track your water usage on your phone.

While this prospect sounds interesting in theory, the value of such a feature is up for debate. Some users love it, while others find it necessary.

Review Feedback

User reviews and professional reviews seem impressed with this filtration system, but some are a bit dissuaded by the price. It carries the same issues as the Advanced filter and doesn’t offer much in the way of additional features apart from its water tracking capabilities.

Overall Thoughts

While the Bluetooth water tracking sounds interesting, we don’t think it’s worth this high price point. Our recommendation would be to go with the Advanced filtration system at a lower price.
