After learning about the benefits of drinking alkaline water, I decided to invest in a good water pitcher. After doing much research and comparisons, I settled on EHM. They seemed to have a more superior product across the board. The pitcher arrived promptly and was very easy to assemble. You want to snugly fit the filter into the base of the reservoir. Use a little force and make sure that it fits nearly flush to the base so that water only goes through the filter. And that's it. Honestly, I never drank the recommended 8 cups per day because I find your run-of-the-mill water tastes rather bland, flat if not a little unpleasant. (I live in the city and am subject to municipal water treatment). Surprisingly, the filtered water by EHM tastes awesome! It has a silky, smooth and round quality to it. Almost reminds me of well water. It takes out the sharp and sour notes of my normal filtered water. Very happy with it. The pitcher itself looks attractive, light in weight yet sturdily made. It is also deceptively voluminous. It doesn't look that big, yet it holds over 3 liters of water. Drink one of these a day, and you pretty much hit your daily water requirement. I had some trouble with the cap and called the company. They were very responsive and resolved my issue right away. So not only am I happy with purchase, I am pleased with the interactions I had with EHM as an organization. Overall, great product. Works well. Looks awesome. I am happy with the purchase. And I am well on my way hit my daily water intake. Read more

I am going to be honest, I thought this wouldn't be as good as the ice mountain bottles water I buy. Well to my surprise this thing works and it works good for me, I feel it up about 2 times per day, it's just 2 of us in the house. It says it lasts 6-8 weeks depending on use. Guess what, I left my filter out and only had the one and didn't want to put it back in the fridge to drain because of fear of bacteria, until my new filters would come. Easy to clean the picture, I did it by hand not sure if it's dishwasher safe or not. I tried my old bottles I've mountain water, it IMHO tasted worse than my EHM filter water, I can't go back to the bottled water. I live in the St. Louis, Mo and they say we have some of the best water in the country, but it's horrible straight out the faucet. Our water without the filter has a terrible chlorine taste, I run it through the EHM pitcher and it's delicious. I don't know about other filters but this one for me works great 👍🏾. I recommend this water pitcher and it's cheaper than my bottled water and if not it costs about the same and tastes better. I don't have to worry about plastic contamination from the plastic bottles, or some leaking when I get them home. Just more convenient for me. It says it removes solids, lead, and other things in the water. I can't say about that, but will remove chlorine and make the water taste good for sure. Oh and it's supposed to make the water a higher PH which is a plus. I don't have a way to measure that, but I can tell the taste and it's way better than my bottled Ice Mountain water. Read more

It works fine, and as expected. It’s a new item at this point, so time will tell if the performance lives up to expectations. One suggestion for the seller, provide the testing certifications to match the product literature, which shows the FDA and other testing agencies. The product brochure seems a little unprofessional in that the FDA and other logo certifications are not explained supported or substantiated. I think it would go a long way to allay customer quality concerns and product support to include affirmative claims. I really like how fast the water percolates through the filter. I noticed huge differences in water quality, including the smell, feel, and taste over the tap water. In terms of switching to this product, I think you really do need to gradually transition over from the tap or bottled spring waters to this mineral infused product, since, in any case I noticed some slight stomach “twinges” with the first few glasses. I will build up my consumption of mineral water over the first few weeks to adjust for the body’s reaction to the addition of these concentrated minerals. I am curious about the longevity of the filter of course. Like you perhaps, I was motivated to save money on the bottled water purchases (delivered to my door). The economics need to breakeven or better for this whole thing to work out 5’s for me. Time will tell if the quality holds, and the cost is justified. Someone above actually complained that 50 gallons of filtration was a “bum deal”. Really? That equates to 15.77 cases (24 each) of 16.9 oz water bottles. At $5 per case, that equates to roughly $80.00. I’m confused how that is not a good deal. Any way, one should expect variation in filtration life cycle due to differences in the water supply, and various reactions to filter compounds over time. Still, I thank that person for bringing it up, and it should matter. The Ph and the Mineral content of the infused product should be delivered as promised, with slight variations expected. I appreciate those comments by others. I don’t have a way of testing for that, but I would be horrified if those two factors failed. Seems to me that Ph levels must be within a tight range to near perfect. Maybe I will need to invest in a gage? Be nice if the package came with a simple one-time use testing strip. Can you add that with the margins? Read more
