PurWater water-filter. Any good? A "best buy"?

Apr 04, 2008 4 Replies

The other day, in Costco, I saw a bunch of Purwater water-filters (for eg glasses of water -- screws onto kitchen-sink faucet -- manual turn-on for filtered water, then switch back off again.



Anyone know anything about it?



How good at getting all the bad-stuff?



Any chance of getting all the medical drugs that people pee out and ends up in reservoir and then in my faucet?



THANKS!

Which one? Their web site has several:

Nope. Fluoride, for one, requires a filter that starts around $150. But then your water supply may not have fluoride added.

I see the 2-stage one only reduces lead and chlorine. The 3-stage one is better at getting these out.

Only with reverse osmosis, which entails a permanent installation under your sink.

"Do you know when flouridation first began?....

"Nineteen hundred and forty-six. Nineteen forty-six, Mandrake. How does that coincide with your post-war Commie conspiracy, huh? It's incredibly obvious, isn't it? A foreign substance is introduced into our precious bodily fluids without the knowledge of the individual. Certainly without any choice. That's the way your hard-core Commie works."

You lost the fluoride fight 50 years ago. Why not take on something more important to obsess over? Lots of good causes out there, Islamofascism, sex -crazed governors, teen pregnancies, etc., etc. Go for it.
