Emma Basic | Binchotan Charcoal Water Filter | 4 Pcs

This is my second time buying theseI use a BRITA maxtra water filter, which mainly removes chlorineI then use 2 of these sticks in the bottom of the BRITA jug, to further filter impurities from the water, as well as add minerals to themThere doesn't seem to be huge amounts of evidence that these would improve upon the BRITA filtered water, however when I ran out of these for a few weeks I definitely noticed the difference. I'm not sure if that is down to the further filtering these might be doing, or the minerals they could be adding.All I know is the water tastes better, fresher/cleaner, I feel more energised after drinking a glass of water using these, and the water seems softer too which I like.These last a long time, you just have to boil them for 10 minutes when you first purchase them, and once a month after that. With each stick lasting for 6 months before it should be thrown out.Given the benefits I find they add to my water, and how long they last I think the price is very affordable!Boiling them is a tiny bit of an inconvenience, but worth it.They come in slightly different shapes and sizes, which is to be expected of a natural product

The tap water where I live (South West) is often contaminated - dirty , particles etc. So I use charcoal sticks in a jug, and add them to a Brita filter jug, to double filter all my water. I use this system all the time, even when the water looks ok (because not all contamination is visible). Worth it for the peace of mind.

Does what it says on the box. Filtered water straight from the tap, I live on London, so London ta water. The taste is refreshing, clear and crisp, with no bitter after taste. Great value for money and easy to use.

Used to using the other brand for years now, I thought I’d try these as cheaper and thought they’d do the same job. While the water seems to be filtered (not noticing a chlorine taste) the stick itself fell into several pieces at the first month when I removed it from my filter to boil. Still usable though. Also the instructions say it needs boiling every month rather than the three month period I’m used to. I bought a pack of four to keep me going but it remains to be seen if I re-purchase.

These are very helpful at filtering chlorine from tap water. I have had a different brand before, that were more effective at doing this: I am having to use all of these charcoal sticks in one jug of water to get the same result, which is very puzzling.

BRILLIANT QUALITY 'BICHOTAN':~A very fair price for this brilliant unique product~(purchased for a Glass Pitcher!)it seems an expensive item, albeit the length of timeline for usage for each piece is superb, so outweighs the initial expense!Fantastic! Thank🙏🏼You!

Good and work well

Where I live, the water tastes horrible and makes a nasty cup of tea. These solve that problem. I keep 2 bottles of water in the fridge, each with one of these in. I make the tea with this water and it tastes great! And I use this water for glasses of water too.The charcoal completely takes away the bad taste. Note- I am in an area with very high limescale.
