Water filter is good, dispenser design is bad
on July 25, 2022
Posted by: Somil
Let me start by saying that lifestraw water filtration is very good, no doubts about it. However I dislike the design of their dispenser. My problems with it.
1. The faucet design is horrible. You have to keep it pressed to fill water and filling anything other than a tumbler is uncomfortable with it.
2. The faucet leaks in a few days itself and you can’t replace it.
3. The faucet cannot be removed and cleaned.
4. Replacing the membrane filter is tough, specially if you have bug hands, although its still ok since you need to do it every only in 6-12 months.

I don’t know why lifestraw couldn’t have a normal faucet on it like the Brita or other dispensers have. I love the filter and I hate it that it’s overshadowed by a crappy dispenser design. It should be functional rather than sleek looking.

Way too heavy. Also the water has an after taste. Going back to my Brita!

Very happy with this unit. Easy to fill and dispense. Portable (more than the glass pitcher, which we had before) so we can bring on vacation and filter lake water.

Great idea but the dispensing tap is way too small and way too slow
on July 30, 2022

I love the way it fits on the refrigerator shelf, and LOVE the taste of the water. But the dispenser valve is WAY too small and too slow and just too hinky. By the time I can dispense a glass of water, the fridge is beeping at me for leaving the door open too long...... please redesign with one of those flip-lever dispensing taps with triple the flow rate, and you'll have a perfect water dispenser.

I love the product for its purifying capabilites, but the unit always does a 4 to 7 drip process after each dispensing and then stops dripping.

Design flaws
on August 2, 2022
Posted by: Meredith F.
I feel very good about the purity of the water from this Lifestraw purifier. But the dispenser part of it is a loser. It takes a great deal of pressure for water to flow and I have to maintain that pressure for a long time in order to fill a 30 ounce cup because the water comes out so slowly. The other problem is that because I don’t have room for it in my refrigerator I have to find something to brace behind it in order to be able to apply sufficiently pressure to the valve. It may work fine with the back of the fridge to hold the unit in place but not on a countertop. Hence the 3 stars.
