Replaced my old filter and now my water tastes weird, almost like plastic. How is this making my water better?

Life Straw 10 cup
on January 5, 2025
Posted by: Geri C.
I purchased two Life Straw 7cup. . . . one for each of my sons and their families. I have asked them to let me know how they like them. I was sold when I read that they filtered out microplastics! Sorry I cannot be more explicit!

Donno what you want here!?!

Does not improve taste. This is a big disappointment.
Setup was difficult. Directions were confusing… way too much packaging materials to deal with…and the parts fit together so tightly it was concerning that something might break.
The flap on top where water enters: awkward to hold open, which seems necessary as I’m not filling from tap (no indoor plumbing) but pouring from jug which I fill from house up hill. Not a big issue but always wonder if I’m adding dirt each time I try to open the flap & hold it open to pour.
Never quite sure how full to fill it in order for untreated water not to mix w/treated water while pouring into containers.

Refreshing
on January 8, 2025
Posted by: Terry H.
This pitcher does an excellent job of filtering out the smell and taste of chlorine from my city water. I appreciate that it also goes a step above other brands in filtering out bacteria and offering glass pitchers as an option. The water tastes clear and refreshing. Saves a lot of $ on bottled and is so much better for the environment.

I haven’t really noticed a difference, and sometimes the water tastes like carbon. .

when the 2 different filters need to be changed out.
on January 12, 2025
Posted by: Mary P.
I refill my pitcher maybe 6 or so times daily. Thus, replacing the filters needs to be more often than every other month. So I bought the package of 6 so I can do it as needed. The subscription rate is only available for the lesser time frame. Secondly, I was horrified to discover the yellowed state of the bigger filter. Nowhere was there info that suggested appropriate time frames to replace that one. Based on what you do offer, I'm assuming it's every 6 mos?

An Ideal Solution
on January 12, 2025
Posted by: Jamie W.
If you, like me, sometimes forget there is a filter to be changed in your lovely LifeStraw pitcher that you see every day and that magically provides clean, fresh-tasting water - then the subscription is a great solution. Delivered when you should change them, it takes the guesswork out of “can I stretch it a little longer?’ Just sign up. What is more important to put health than the water we drink? If you’ve ever been in a survival situation, you know: Not much.
