Carpet Express C4 Remanufactured Carpet Steam Cleaner Like Rug Doctor

Carpet Express C4 Remanufactured Carpet Steam Cleaner Like Rug Doctor
  • 100 PSI Demand Pump
  • 85" Lift Vacuum Motor
  • 3.5 Gallon Solution & Waste Tank
  • Factory Remanufactured
  • Free Hand Tool / 11ft Hose

I rented one from Home Depot. I had recently rented the Rug Doctor machine and am not sure which one cleans better. The Carpet Express I am quite sure has better suction. After going over an area 3 times it didn''t feel any wetter than after the first time. Rug Doctor strongly recommends not going over an area more than twice. I did and the carpet got too wet.

CE seems easier to handle that the RD. Pushing it around was less a problem than the RD. It has a rotary brush an opposed to the shaking or vibrating brush on RD. Not sure which brush style cleans better though. Carpet Express seems to remove dirt as well as the Rug Doctor but sucks up more moisture than RD leaving carpets drier. One negative thing, the CE instructions direct you to use the container that collects dirty water to also mix clean water and carpet cleaning detergent. That''s like mopping the bathroom floor with a cleaning solution that''s in the toilet stool. Not a good idea. Just use a clean bucket.

The ideal may be to clean with Rug Doctor and suck up left over moisture with a Carpet Express. Not sure but I am leaning toward the CE as being better than the RD.

I have used pro carpet cleaners and don''t think they do a better job than renting a RD or CE. If you have the time and don''t mind breaking a sweat by all means do it yourself.

(Following reviews from another website)

Carpet Express

Pros:

* Extracted nearly all of the water we put into the carpet swatches.

* Best suited for carpets that are exposed to moderate traffic.

Cons:

* Cleaner may not remove very heavy soils.

* Testers said the cleaner was bulky and heavy to push.

* The handle isn''t height-adjustable; several of our taller testers had to lean forward while using this cleaner. (The one I rented had an adjustable handle like RD)

* The unit cleans and extracts the carpet only on the backward stroke, making it difficult to maneuver around a room.

* Some controls may not be intuitive, and you may have to ask a sales associate for a complete instruction manual.

* Upholstery attachment tools can be used with this cleaner; but they weren''t included with the rental. (I rented from Home Depot and attachment tools came free, RugDoctor at Lowes was an extra $3)

Rug Doctor Mighty Pro

Pros:

* Picked up a significant amount of dirt in Institute tests and should work well on high-traffic areas.

* Extracted almost half of the water we put into the carpets.

* Controls are easy to understand and use.

* Manual is complete and accurate.

Cons:

* The machine cleans and extracts only on the backward stroke, making it more difficult to maneuver around a room.

* Can be heavy to push when filled with water.

* The handle moves forward and backward, but doesn''t extend up or down; several of our taller testers had to lean forward while using this cleaner.

* Solution and water must be mixed in a separate bucket and poured into the tank, which can be messy.

Buy Carpet Express C4 Remanufactured Carpet Steam Cleaner Like Rug Doctor Now

I have rented Rug Doctor to clean my carpeting in the past and tried this Carpet Express unit from Home Depot today. The price was only twenty dollars for four hours. The unit I rented was brand new. It isn''t too heavy and simple to use. It extracted a lot of dirt from my carpet. The problem was that it was unacceptably loud. They should provide a pair of quality ear plugs with this unit! I much prefer the Rug Doctor.

Zojirushi Premium Thermal Carafe

Zojirushi Premium Thermal 1-Liter Carafe, Brushed Stainless SteelI have tried a half dozen different brands over the years and this brand is excellent. I was in a coffee shop in Asheville NC and got a cup of coffee from a larger version of this product. I remarked to the server that the coffee was certainly hot and that he must have just made a fresh pot. He said the coffee was about 4 hours old and said his wife (the owner of the shop) had tested about a half dozen different brands of carafes prior to deciding on Zojirushi. He said she found it the best on the market. He indicated that they frequently take excess coffee from the day home and have it straight from the carafe the next morning and find it hot.

I got the product name and went to Amazon to read the reviews on this product prior to purchasing and was therefore aware of the problems identified by the reviewers here. I have now owned the carafe for about a year and use it most days. I usually run hot water into the carafe and let it heat up the container prior to pouring coffee and sealing it. I have kept coffee very hot for over 24 hours. Of course, the secret is to always close the carafe (check the slot to insure it is closed) back immediately after pouring a cup. I also wash the top in a dishwasher after use. This allows water to enter the top (as noted by one reviewer). I turn the top so that the horizontal hole in the side is at the bottom and the water pours out. I shake it a few times and it is good to go.

I find the product more than adequate to prevent coffee from tasting stale. I frequently make 10-12 cups of coffee at a time and pour a few cups then put the remainder into a carafe and seal it until further use. I find the coffee hours later as good as a freshly made cup of coffee. I usually drink the carafe of coffee within 4-6 hours.

After using several other similar products I find this product superior to those products therefore warranting a 5-star rating.

The one disadvantage was the higher price but after a year of use from a value consideration, it is worthwhile.

I was leery at first, thinking this would keep my coffee hotter than a couple of hours. I thought that way until 24 hours later, when I poured out the old coffee, it was steaming hot! This is unbelievable the best invention yet! A definite must have for anyone who enjoys coffee throughout the day. No more wasted, burnt coffee!

Buy Zojirushi Premium Thermal Carafe Now

This carafe is pretty standard, with a glass liner and a unique lid that has push-button Open/Closed positions. It even exposes a little sign that says either Open or Closed.

Unfortunately, the lid accumulates water (maybe from condensation?) that won''t come out. So stale, possibly moldy, water is there to stay. You can''t shake it out or get to it in any way.

Zojirushi Premium Thermal 1-Liter Carafe, Brushed Stainless Steel

This is a wonderful product. Truck driver for 32 years and I''ve seen a lot of thermos/carafe products. This is one of the best ever.

Button sticks? Top probably not fully in place. Base gets loose and leaks a bit? Carefully unscrew the base,carefully wash and dry the bottle and insides then simply do a careful reassembly. Left over condensation in the lid. Several products on the market to clean out any bad stuff.Then simply run several carafes full of water through it ''till smells fresh.. Want it to keep coffee or water a bit hotter? Simply let a carafe of hot water rest in the carafe while you prepare a pot of hot water or your choice of drink and it starts hot and stays hot for a bit longer.

I''ve owned that little carafe for several months now and it''s seen almost 100,000 miles in my truck. Still keeping my coffee hot. Love it.

We owned both Thermos Nissan and Zojirushi Premium Thermal Carafe. Here is a comparison of the two products:

Heat retention:

Some people claim that Thermos Nissan keeps heat better. We did a careful head to head comparison -hot water in each, and then tested after 1 hr, 2hr, overnight. We did not notice much of a difference until we were exhausted and gave up on further testing.

Size & weight

Both hold 1 liter (34oz). However Thermos Nissan is half of outside measure of Zojirushi (mainly the height). Zojirushi''s bulky size is due to its inside glass unit plus outside shell. For the same reason, Thermos Nissan 34oz is also much lighter.

Pouring:

W/ Thermos Nissan, you need to continuously push down a lever while pouring. This is not a problem for 34oz one, but is a bit inconvenient when holding a bigger size Nissan. Zojirushi''s open/close button does not have this issue.

Durability:

Thermos Nissan is made of steel, so not breakable. Somebody mentioned that the seal at mouth will need replacement eventually. We don''t know how soon that would be. We have owned the Zojirushi carafe for 14 years, and it is still working properly.

We have Zojirushi at home and bring Thermos Nissan to the office. We have quite happy w/ both of them.

Keurig Charcoal Water Filter Cartrige Refill 6pc Set

Keurig Charcoal Water Filter Cartrige Refill 6pc SetI love, love, love my Keurig and these little filters make it even better. The optional water filter attachment removes the need to use bottled water in the Keurig machine and helps to provide an even more delicious cup of coffee or tea. The filters only have to be changed every two months and it is a quick and easy change. One package of filters lasts a whole year making them much more cost effective than bottled water. A definite plus to the huge positve of the Keurig.

We have very hard water -lots of iron -and the filters do a terrific job of filtering it out of the machine.

Just an FYI for owners of Breville K-Cup machines: These filters fit the 600XL (and probably the 700XL, too), since it''s really a Keurig machine in arguably better clothing. I took a gamble on a pack for our 600XL, and was pleased. Generally, the Breville-branded filters are both less common and higher priced than their Keurig counterparts.

Keep your coffee tasting fresh, and your coffeemaker nice and clean -and save a little cash, too.

Buy Keurig Charcoal Water Filter Cartrige Refill 6pc Set Now

As a previous reviewer (Rita Major) also mentioned, there is no way that you can tell the size of these filters sold by Big Kitchen

and fulfilled by Amazon. You have to open one and then you will be very surprised!

They DO NOT fit the popular Cuisinart SS-700 Keurig single service coffee maker. They are way too big.

When you do a product search for the SS-700, these filters automatically are linked to that product.

Rest assured, you will NOT get any refund from Big Kitchen. I tried.

However, I have spoken to Amazon customer service and they should be able to process a full refund, even

if opened, on a case by case basis. IT HAS TO BE DONE WITHIN 30 DAYS. I failed to make the deadline

as I gave up after contacting Big Kitchen.

Also, Amazon customer service is going to research this and more than likely fix this problem.

My low rating is not for the filter itself, but more related to the product advertisement.

Grill Daddy GB91062S Grill Cleaning Tool Save 35% Off

Grill Daddy GB91062S Grill Cleaning ToolI am knocking off one star simply because there is a design flaw, but it is easily overcome.

When you close tight the fill cap, there is no where for air to enter the handle to allow the water to flow out.

If you remove the cap, it works great, tho I may simply drill a small air hole into the handle somewhere. I am afraid of just loosening it as it may fall into the hot grill during use.

It is better than spashing water with a cup because it releases a small amount of water at the exact moment of the brush''s contact with the grill. You may get similar effect by dipping a SS brush into water each and every stroke, but that sounds like a lot of work as well.

I simply clean the grill while it is still hot just after cooking and even between batches if I see a need. It only take a few seconds and is much easier than turning it on later just to clean it or leaving all that gunk on there until you next want to grill something (and then waiting for it to re-heat again). The added bonus is that it cools down the grill that much faster so I can put the top on again that much sooner.

I have tried many different methods and before this, I had settled on one of those grill cleaning bricks (which, in turn, I had to clean every month or so with a SS scrubber and soapy hot water)

One reviewer of the pro suggested it melted onto the grill. Since SS does not melt, I suspect he was pushing so hard the grill bars went past the bristles and touched the base. There is no need to push that hard at all. Either that or he cleans it with the high flames still on and they reach the plastic. Turn down/off the flames just before using it.

I like that the removeable brush is held into place with a wingnut because other removable heads I have had, had problems with the brush slideing out of the handle while I was using it.

The pro gets better reviews and may be a better design, but this was an impulse buy for me at BBB with one of their 20% off coupons.

Grill Daddy GD12952S Grill Daddy Pro Grill Brush

But then again, the Pro seems like a two handed device, while this only requires one handed use, which I think I prefer.

My wife is always looking for ways to make me more helpful around the house. She knows I hate to clean the grill even though I use it a lot. I got tired of buying steel brushes to clean the grill and have them all gummed up in a few weeks. She bought me the Grill Daddy and I finally got around to trying it and it works pretty good. You have to turn the grill on high and you load the Grill Daddy with about a cup of water and you go to work. The water on the hot grill turns to steam and it got my grill looking like new. Now, it didn''t help me with all the other cleaning that I had to do on my Webber gas grill. I still have to spend a Saturday afternoon taking care of all that is below the grill. However, I know I can get the grill clean in a relatively short period of time. I only used it once and I know it came with an extra set of brushes but I don''t think that these brushes will gum up all that soon. (Especially since I don''t clean the grill that often). However, I couldn''t help but see all the gunk on the grill fall away into the drop pan rather than sticking to the brush.

Buy Grill Daddy GB91062S Grill Cleaning Tool Now

I won this product at my Company''s secret Santa Christmas party. I was hesitant on how well it would work given it''s an "as seen on TV" product. However, it works better than any grill brush I''ve ever used. The brush has 3 small holes located where the bristles are, so as you brush your grill, the movement of the brush causes water to leak out the holes onto the grill. The water helps to steam away cooked on food, and then the brushes scrap it off. It works wonderfully and gets my grill perfectly clean for the next meal. Just make sure you let your grill pre-heat to about 400 degrees, then in about 15 seconds of scrubbing with this brush, it''s perfectly clean and ready to use. I would highly recommend this product.

Doesn''t operate as advertised! Water did not flow freely out of it and it had little more effect on my grill than a normal grill brush. Would not recommend to anyone.

Ordered this a while ago and just used it. I have a weber grill and have had it for years. I have used heavy duty brushes to clean the grill but nothing has done the job this one does. Get the grill nice and hot, fill it up with water and start scraping. The water comes out at a nice pace and along with the brush which is quality it cleans it extremely well. I was impressed how nice a job it does without the heavy or hard scraping. Worth the price.

1L Grease Drain Opener

1L Grease Drain Opener
  • "INSTANT POWER" HAIR AND GREASE DRAIN OPENER
  • 1 liter.
  • Formulated to create heat to melt grease from clogged kitchen sinks and drains.
  • Dissolves hair from clogged bathroom sinks, showers and tubs.
  • Safe for all pipes and septic systems.

Purchased this at Home Depot (CLARIFICATION purchased INSIDE A BRICK AND MORTAR STORE much cheaper than this on-line price) for the WORST clogged bathtub (caused by a tenant)EVER. When I moved back in, the tub drained terribly slow and only got worse.

I tried everything but calling a plumber who wanted over $200.

Blew money on worthless canned air that shoved the clog further into the drain, purchased many plungers none worked and neither did the boiled water/vinegar/baking soda "natural" idea. Drano, from past experience, never works so I saved my money by refusing to purchase the junk.

Instant Hair and Grease CLEARED MY BATHTUB DRAIN IMMEDIATELY. I let the water drain and helped it go down with a plunger. Once the standing water was gone and there was at least an inch or so of no water in the pipe, I poured in some Instant Hair and Grease.

My dishwasher stopped draining and I cleared what I could around the drain holes at the bottom of the dishwasher. I let an EMPTY dishwasher run for a bit and then poured in a VERY SMALL AMOUNT and closed the door to let the unit cycle though. BINGO my dishwasher drains free now. In a two year period, I used this product 3 times on my dishwasher with no problems. It probably isn''t recommended for it, but it works and it hasn''t affected my 1999 Whirlpool dishwasher except to allow it to drain quickly.

NOTE: Home Depot carries it in 2 sizes. Buy the larger size and save money.

UPDATE January 2013. A contractor dumped several buckets of dirty mop water into my bathroom sink. The bottom of the buckets had a thick layer of brick dust and drywall dust from where they tore out a wall and tore down an old oil burning brick chimney. They also ripped all the drywall off all 4 walls and insulated the walls and re-drywalled. I think they dumped something else down there also because the plunger pulled up dirt or something like dirt. The sink was CLOGGED nothing went down. Repeat plunging of the sink forced up a ton of dirt and sludge and when enough water was removed I used the recommended amount of drain cleaner. It did not work despite my not using the sink for 24 hours to let it work. So I plunged the sink again to force down the water (wearing safety goggles/gloves) and then I waited a week (did not use the sink) until enough water had evaporated or drained from inside the pipes then I poured quite a bit of this drain cleaner much more than it says to on the directions because this was my 2nd attempt using the product. After pouring quite a bit down the drain I left the stuff to work for over 24 hours. Result the sink drains perfectly now.

I didn''t buy this online because of the shipping charges; I got it at a local Home Depot. It is the only chemical drain cleaning product that has ever worked for me. I used it in three bathroom drains (two sinks and one tub) in which I''d repeatedly (over the course of years) used Liquid-Plumr and Drano with no real results. These drains were all slow, but not completely clogged. I poured the recommended amount of Instant Power Hair & Grease Drain Opener into each drain and left them overnight. In the morning, I poured about a quart of boiling water down each drain, and now they all drain perfectly. We were so used to the drains being slow that we are amazed at how well they drain now.

The way the product worked on one drain in particular illustrates how great the product is. When I poured the boiling water in, it didn''t drain immediately -it backed up into the sink. Then there was a big GLUG (the clog being washed away), and all the water drained away. This is one of those products that actually works as advertised. It also has a money-back guarantee; so if you buy it in a brick and mortar store, it would be easy to return if it doesn''t work (but I''ll bet you won''t have to do that).

Had an extremely slow draining tub so I bought this stuff at Home Depot and gave it a shot. Poured it in and let sit over night and the next morning I flushed it with a gallon of boiling water. The clog is gone and the tub drains effortlessly.

Amico Drinking Fountain Chrome Plated Gooseneck Water Faucet

Amico Drinking Fountain Chrome Plated Gooseneck Water FaucetWhen my original faucet in the under-sync filtering system started dripping, I bought Amico as a replacement. Amico seems more sturdy then the original, with metal parts where the old one had plastic.

I installed Amico about 2 week ago and did not have any problems so far.

Whirlpool WHER25 Reverse Osmosis Water Filtration System

Whirlpool WHER25 Reverse Osmosis Water Filtration SystemOk...so I''m not the person that''s concerned about taste. In fact...most of you reading this don''t care about why Reverse osmosis filtering is important for an aquarium....but let me begin on the basics.

1. Yes it wastes somewhere between 4-5 gallons for every 1 gallon it filters.

2. It does take up under the sink space...if your not at all good with plumbing and don''t hire a professional.

3. The filters run about 100$ for a full set 1 pre-filter, 1 post-filter, and 1 Reverse Osmosis filter.

Note: they say you will need to replace every 6 months...If you have hard water and can smell it from the tap, you will likely have to change the filter more often. If you have relatively good clean water the filter could last a year.

4. WHY I USE IT: The option of getting a Reverse Osmosis unit not only softens the water, but removes 99.5% of the bad chemicals in your tap. Chlorine, Chloramine, Flouride...etc. I have special fish that need clean soft water this is the best way to get it.

Now I tried the Home Depot GE version (same price) and let me tell you....it was the shoddiest, cheap, and in the end worthless unit. I took it back after the tank nut cracked while it was pressurizing...only to find out it was also missing a 2 important seals. I returned it and headed to Lowes...

Whirlpool Reverse Osmosis Filtration System WHER25

Pros :

Easy to install (if your not too concerned about how it looks)

Highest quality parts than any other competitors in the same price range.

Fairly quiet

Saves money in the long run (for me it paid for itself in a month...but then I use it for large aquariums)

Cons :

If your not handy putting things together, you''ll need a plumber but you can then have all the equipment setup in your basement or garage out of the way.

It does waste 4-5 gallons per 1 gallon of drinking water, but once it fills up the attached tank it stops the process.

If you absolutely need to get an RO unit at a budget price, this is the unit you want to buy. I never considered ''whirlpool'' a quality product over ''GE'', but this is one very large exception to that rule. If you have a larger budget, you might consider some of the large setups they are more efficient over time and a bit more convenient if you need more that 2.5 gallons at a time.

In the literature the RO membrane does not need to be changed every 6 months, just the pre and post filter. The RO membrane will let you know when it is time by decreased production or pressure. They indicate "The membrane should be replaced after a decrease in water pressure or quality."

Have had mine for 5 years and only changed membrane once. I''m connected to city water and move the post filter to the pre spot and put on a new post filter about every 6 months or so. The pre filter needs to remove big items, the RO membrane removes the disolved solids and the post filter removes the odor. If you have lots of smell to your water, like with some wells, might make sense to change both every time.

With all the negative reviews, I thought I better add my own to balance it a bit.

I installed it my self. Took me a couple hours but had no real problems. I did have to press in one of the hoses that I did not have seated properly, but that is my fault. It''s been about a week and no leaks.

I had the water tested and my normal tap water has 1200ppm TDS, and after the RO, I got 320ppm TDS. Which isn''t great, but it should be safe. I''m going to add another charcol filter in front of the system to try and knock down the TDS some more. Also our local water specialist is coming this week to service our system in the garage. I suspect after they are done, our TDS will be down to a level this RO filter can handle better, I may not need the charcol filter.

We have a Well, so high water usage isn''t so important to me. It goes right back down the drain and back into the ground where it came from. City Water users might be concerned about the water usage. It''s cheap, easy, and works and I chose this because of the twist in/out filters. No more spilling water all over while changing filters.

What I like:

1. It delivers good, bottled quality water

What I don''t like:

1. High cost of replacement filters

2. Cheap, fragile plastic connectors

3. Not easy to install; may require modification of existing water supply and drain piping. Will probably require extra hardware for proper installation.

4. Wastes too much water

My uses for this product:

Ice making

Coffee & Tea beverages

Drinking water

I purchased this product for under-the-kitchen sink installation. I wanted a RO (Reverse-Osmosis) filtration system to remove hardness constituents from the water for our coffee maker & ice maker.

Installation was somewhat difficult; I had to purchase another shut-off valve that was suitable for my 3/8" copper plumbing, a 3/8" to 1/4" tee adapter to connect the enclosed water supply tubing to the RO unit, and another 1 1/2" drain adapter (enclosed adapter was too short) to accommodate the RO drainage into the kitchen sink drains.

This product came with a charge tank, chrome plated drinking spigot, CR2032 battery, 1/2" plastic threaded tee connector for the water supply, a drain adapter for under the sink installation, a drain connector (which I was able to use) a plastic water connector for the tank, plastic color-coded hoses, some teflon tape and a plastic sanitizing pipet.

You must follow the instructions carefully to properly install & hook up the RO unit and avoid leaks that many reviewers have experienced.

It took about 24 hours after installation, sanitizing & charging the system before it was fully operational. I estimate the unit drains away approximately 3 gallons of water for every gallon of filtered water produced.

However, the unit produces very good tasting water that leaves very little behind in the way of calcium scale deposits. I have found that I can just replace the pre and post water filters only without replacing the reverse osmosis filter cartridge every 6 months. The original reverse osmosis cartridge had lasted nearly 24 months before I replaced it.

I would have rated this as 5 stars if the unit didn''t waste so much water. I recommend it.

Pros of this unit:

* fairly easy to install

* filters are easy to change

* neat and clean

Cons of this unit:

* filters are very expensive (almost $100 for the full set)

* you have to change filters much more often than 6 months if your water isn''t good quality to begin with

* it wastes a lot of water during the filtering process

* it''s noisy during the filtering process

We got this system about 2 years ago from Lowe''s and installed it ourselves. It functions properly (we never had problem with leaks, etc). The first few months we were very pleased with the product, but around about month 3, we started noticing that it began to run constantly, even all through the night. It''s quite noisy as well (it makes a gurgling noise during filtering). Upon calling the Whirlpool customer service, they said this indicated a need for filter change. Sure enough, once we changed the pre-and post-filters, the problem resolved. However, we are regularly needing to change the filters every 2 months now. We already have a water softener installed, so I''m not sure what else we can do to pre-condition our water, which is what Whirlpool wants you to do when you call their customer service. Isn''t that the purpose of this unit? Paying $50 every other month for filters on top of our monthly water bill is getting old. Unfortunately, I think we will be uninstalling it soon and just buy bottled water.

  • New Space Saving Design
  • Electronic Filter Life Indicator
  • 3 Stage Filter removes 99.99% microbial cysts, cryptosporidium and giardia
  • Removes over 99% of Pharmaceuticals(Based on manufacturer testing)

I''ve been using this for a few months now and really like it. I did a ton of research before purchasing and determined this was the best one to purchase without spending a fortune.

I''ve really liked the quick release and it seems to do a great job. Not really any taste to the water that I can tell. From the contaminants it gets rid of, it''s much better than most of the cheaper products out there. I have worked in the environmental industry for many years, including water and soil remediation of contamination. After many years, I know a lot about contaminants and what''s right for your health. This isn''t ideal, but probably one of the best ones for filtering enough contaminants and being a little more eco-friendly in the process (they''re practices and replacement filters seem to be better than most).

It looks good and works good, no problems or complaints whatsoever. I may update this after I''ve gotten to the time I need to change filters.

I was surprised by how light and flimsy the filter is compared to the Brita faucet filter that I had for years. The filter change light didn''t work, and the filter started leaking after only a few days. It''s a slow leak, so I kept the filter because I didn''t want to go through the hassle of exchanging it for another one. I have it on my calendar to change the filter every 3 months. When the leak gets too bad, I''ll try another faucet filter.

LOVE IT, THE WATER TASTES GREAT AFTER BEING RUN THRU THE FILTER. I DON''T BUY BOTTLED WATER ANYMORE. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT.

This Pur Water Filtration System is simply wonderful! I have used Pur for over 20 years, and this version is so much easier to install and use, and the water tastes great. I will continue to use Pur permanently!

Kishu Binchotan Charcoal Purifier / Freshener (1/4 lb Bag)

Kishu Binchotan Charcoal Purifier / FreshenerI would recommend these filters in lieu of a Brita filter. The water tastes better, and less plastic-y

A friend gave me a piece of Kishu Binchotan, so I gave it a try. It makes my tap water taste so sweet and clear that as a result I''m now drinking more water.

I ordered the large Kishu Binchotan (7.5"H x 1 .75"W) & use it in my little night carafe next to my bed. Its perfect because I can just refill with tap water & leave it sitting out for a couple of hours & have purified drinking water. Not only that, I also get many compliments on the look of the beautiful white charcoal in my glass carafe. It looks very exotic & organic. These smaller pieces would also be just beatiful. I am planning to order the cube next for air purification in my fridge. Definitely recommended. This stuff is HARD TO FIND here in the states (as it is made in Japan) & popularly sold in Europe. Hopefully it will catch on here soon.

I think I am fairly picky about my water. I mainly drink water, nothing else, usually. But I tasted no difference. Maybe this means my tap water doesn''t have a lot of chlorine or other impurities!

I think that these filters are awesome. They work exactly as they are advertised. I just place mine in a clear blue one gallon jug. I only use one long piece or two small pieces. I boil it first to reactivate it then I place it in the jug with the water. The water turns out nice and sweet with a slight natural mineral taste. I highly recommend. They do need to be changed every 3 months.

Amway eSpring® Water Purifier Countertop Unit in-home water treatment and Filtration system

Amway eSpringĀ® Water Purifier Countertop Unit in-home water treatment and Filtration systemI love how this product lights up and tells you how it''s doing & when it needs a new filter. Much easier than simply trying to guess.

My mother-in-law handed an espring model down to us 6 years ago. Not sure how long she had it prior, but we''ve used it every day in those 6 years. I immediately could taste the difference between tap water and this filtered water (no more bad odor or aftertastes). I also know it''s working when I change out the filter (not cheap, but what is that really works and is healthy for you? And it lasts for over a year with constant use of a family of 4) it is a gross dark brown color! And our tap water here in Memphis area is one of the best since we get ours from natural underground springs and acquifers. For me and my family, we will continue using this until it finally dies then we''ll buy another one. :-). I am giving it 5 stars due to the high satisfaction we have with it, and the reliability and obvious effectiveness of the filtering.

BestAir A35-6 Aprilaire 35 Metal Waterpad Save 25% Off

BestAir A35-6 Aprilaire 35 Metal WaterpadThis product works as described, is easy to install, and was competetively priced on Amazon.

I''ve had Aprilaire 700 in my current and last home, so over fifteen years. In the last couple of years this brand is the only one that was available from my local supply store, prior to that I''ve always paid more for an aprilaire brand. The april aire would last the entire humidification season for me, and sometimes 2 seasons when I wasn''t so diligent about changing it. This brand however, lasts only half the season and then it collapses and bows toward the fan unit until it starts to be hit by the fan. The noise has alerted me to the issue and I''ve then changed the filter. However, just two weeks ago it started doing that 24 hours before I was leaving on vacation. I was able to shut the humidifier off and changed filer when I returned, but I dread the idea that it might have happened while I was gone. Who knows what damage might have been done to the unit. So, yes, it is inexpensive, it does its job, but it lacks the life of the name brand, and know you may need to buy two instead of one of the more expensive one. Me? I''m going back to AprilAire brand.

This humidifier water pad fits many Aprilaire (my home has the Aprilaire 760) and Honeywell home humidifiers. The product fits perfectly into the bracket with just a snap, and works as well as any other replacement pad at a very reasonable cost. When installing any of these types of pads use caution with the edges, as parts of them can be sharp and catch on clothing.

It''s important to change the pad in accordance with the manufacturer''s recommendations. Doing so is quick and will help ensure the proper operation of your home humidifier for years.

This is a good product at a very good price. I recommend it.

This item is much less expensive on line than in heating and cooling businesses. It is important to change it at least once a year. You may not be told this when the humidifier is installed.
