PUR DS-1800Z 2-Stage Water Dispenser Reviews
My wife and I have immensely enjoyed the wonderful water we get from our Pur filtration pitcher, which uses the same filters as this dispenser.
It’s very convenient — just pour water into the top, and it will, albeit slowly, drip through the filter. Over time, as the filter clogs, it will get slower, so the key is to add more water every time you pour more out — that way, it’s filtering while you are drinking and you aren’t waiting.
It’s actually much more convenient than the faucet-mount filters, which inevitably leak and get painfully slow and force you to wait…
Pur is better than Brita, by the way, if you get the Ultimate filters, which filter out cryptosporidium and giardia in addition to chemicals and gunk. Brita doesn’t do that; it’s an important feature if you have iffy water systems (Mexico, Russia) or a weak immune system…
This is a great water filter and it gets plenty of use in my household. If anything I could say “I wish it held more water,” (I drink 3+ litres of water a day and it seems that I am always filling the darned thing up) – but that would be an unreasonable request. Who would want a dispenser so large that it would be unwieldy to carry to the refrigerator? No one – not even me. So I bought a second one so that one of them is always full! This dispenser is slim so that I can easily fit two side by side in my refrigerator. (Can’t have too much of a good thing!) And this filter/dispenser is definitely good – it has a large fill “basket” and the 2 stage filter produces water that is completely taste and odor free. I could easily tell the difference in my drinking water! Lastly, the filters (with usage indicators) are long-lasting. I have filled my first dispenser twice a day for 1 1/2 months and it still hasn’t reached the half way point. Very impressive results! Highly recommend.
Yes I’ll admit it, everytime we went grocery shopping we lugged home a few big bottles of “spring water” (what the heck does that mean anyways and why do we think it’s better then our tap water, I mean what is really in those plastic jugs?). Given this sudden realization recently I went on a quest to pick a water filter for our tap water, and decided upon this dispenser and I’m so glad I did! It’s super easy to fill up, fits nicely into the fridge (plus it’s my favorite shade of blue, that’s a plus right?) and OMG this is what water is supposed to taste like, nothing… pure & clean & crisp (are you sure this is from my tap?) It’s wonderful! I find myself happily filling up a glass with water to drink now instead of juice or tea etc.
