Epic Water FiltersPure Filter Pitchers for Drinking Water, 10 Cup 150 Gallon Filter, Tritan BPA Free, Removes Fluoride, Chlorine, Lead, Forever Chemicals (White & Bamboo)

I bought a second Epic Water pitcher for children and grands to use when they came to town for a visit recently. The water where I live is contaminated with a very high level of PFOS, one of the PFAS forever chemicals and our water company is constructing a new plant, to be completed sometime by 2029 just to be able to remove PFOS. Post departure of our younguns I now use both pitchers by Epic and it helps keep up with filtering cooking water, drinking water, and even the water I put out for the critters outside. The water tastes amazing and the EWG (Environmental Working Group) listed Epic Water pitcher as their favorite for value, ease of use, and effectiveness in removing PFOS as well as lead, iron, cadmium, and other contaminants.

We love our water filter, and will never go back to other brands or tap water. It works well, tastes great, and the filter lasts a decent amount of time. I recommend buying the filters in bulk, as it's much more cost effective. It also hold a great amount, and doesn't leak at all.Helpful tip from experience: Let the water completely drain (filter) before pouring. I've made the mistake and started pouring with he top reservoir still full of water, and the top popped off from the water weight on top and it poured everywhere. A lesson in patience learned.Great product, and will stick with Epic as long as we can.

So far, very happy with this filter pitcher. Easy to set up and use. Water tastes great, crystal clear.

Just received Epic Pure Water Pitcher and these are first few impressions.What I like... Local municipal water definitely tastes better. If all goes well then Epic Pure Water Pitcher is good bang for the buck.What I don't like... Even after allowing upper section with unfiltered water to completely empty and stand for a while, when pouring filtered water out through spout, unfiltered water that was trapped inside filter will escape out spout and mix with filtered water. You can not fully empty filtered water without this happening. Not ideal design but somewhat manageable.Product listing says "10 cups." Not sure what this refers to? One cup is 8 oz. x 10 cups = 80 oz. Filtered water chamber is barely 8 cups.Bottom line is that you can have good tasting water at affordable price if you can manage a few drawbacks.

This pitcher has multiple problems.1. The top does is not held in place securely. If you do not hold in on while you pour, it will come off and flood the area.2. The description headline calls this a 10 cup - 80 ounce - pitcher. In fact, if you add over 16 ounces, all of the water over that amount stays in the chamber above the filter. Unfiltered water to flows over the filter chamber and into your cup first. The filtered water remains in the bottom chamber.3 The least expensive filter sold sold by Epic is $15, but to get that price you need to buy multiples. If you expect to filter out fluoride, bacteria, virus, cyst, lead, chromium 6, PFOS, PFOA, heavy metals, OR pesticides be prepared to spend $54 for a single filter.4. The timer that tell you when to replace the filter is a simple countdown timer. It has nothing to do with the volume of water passed through the filter. This means that a household of one (mine) will get a replace filter warning just as soon as a household of four, or ten, or twenty. It makes no difference.This is complete garbage. Mine hit the recycling bin yesterday. The top came off and flooded my kitchen for the last time.

I discovered that there was lead in the water line from street to my house. We acted fast. The data showed that the Epic Water Filters Pure Filter Pitchers for Drinking Water, 10 Cup 150 Gallon Filter, Tritan BPA Free worked really well at removing 99.99 percent contaminants. The price is quite reasonable. Water taste great. The filter hangs on for quite a while. The filter process is slower. But ok. What we do is fill the Epic and then after the water is filtered pour the filtered water into our old filter for use and keep filling the Epica as needed. Only minor problem is pouring sprout cover for filtered waterer can break.But still worse fine.

The media could not be loaded. The gist is that it's expensive, replacement filters are impossible to find, and the new replacement filters don't work. The company does not look like it's doing well. 3 months ago this review would have been 4-5 stars. The filter that came with the pitcher was slow, but just fast enough to provide me and my partner with enough water each day. The water tasted better than what was supplied by the big brand I was using before, and was supposedly free of way more contaminants. Problems arose when it was time to replace the filter- supply was down and restock kept getting pushed back every time I checked. I waited over a month for my replacement filter to be delivered. The new filter is pretty much useless - It MAYBE provides about 32 oz of water per day- that's enough for my morning pint of water plus a mug of tea. I am also wondering what else could be wrong with the filter... I am extremely disappointed as I invested a lot of money in this system, and now the company appears to be having serious supply and quality issues. Given how expensive it is to get in to this system, you might want to consider avoiding it.
