Water Filter -under the counter (UC)

Price: $199.00

Amy's Opinion:

Before we moved into our Vermont home with very
clean deep well water, we were devout Lakota tap water
and shower filter users. They were the only company
who gave me the independent lab summary results of
the filters. Nobody else would give these out, even
when asked. The test results showed that these filters
take out the greatest number of contaminants for the
largest volume of water.

Why these filters are better than Multipure and Amway
(which sells the Multipure filter under the Amway name),
and others:

· Lakota's filters are significantly less expensive.
They are a small factory direct company, not a multi-
level marketing company like Multipure and Amway.
No pyramid structure of sales people to jack up the
cost. If you are like me, you don't want to pay more for
nothing.

Comparable Multipure unit- $599.95, replacement
filters: $71-$99 each. Amway unit-$420, replacement
filters: $120 each. Lakota-$189 (counter-top), $199
(under-counter), replacement cartridges-$39 each
(you need two, one gets changed yearly, the other
every two years).

· Lakota has better performance, testing & upgrades -
as new materials and technologies become available,
they incorporate them into their units. Testing is done by
qualified, independent labs according to NSF standards.

· Lakota's filters come with an unconditional lifetime
guarantee.

· The owner's "walk their talk". Their home and manufacturing
facility are "off-the-grid"-- all their energy comes from electricity
generated from solar and wind.
