Bad customer service
It is with great sadness I am writing this review as it is more about a bad customer service I have experienced while dealing with their faulty, badly designed product, than about a taste of filtered water.
We have purchased a classic water pitcher from this company about three months ago and when the time came to replace the filter, one of the pitcher's lid components simply fell off of its tiny hinges. To be more precise, I am talking about a little triangular spout cover located in front of the lid (1.5" x 1.5" x 1.5") that rests on two little prongs allowing the water to flow freely out of the pitcher. We tried to put the cover back, but it appeared that the one of the hinges was permanently missing. We never damaged it, the household strictly consists of all adults, neither the lid was ever dropped or mishandled. It was always gently handled and cleaned with great care according to the provided instructions. I have contacted the company asking for a replacement and was told that I could (insert sarcasm here) purchase the lid component for only $7.99 + $10 shipping + applicable taxes! Really? When I have expressed my disappointment, all the communication from the company was stopped and I never heard back from them. Now, we are stuck with an expensive, unsightly looking, pitcher that was damaged at no fault of our own. Once my new filter runs out, we are going to purchase a different system and get rid of this one.
Update: I was just sorting my old boxes meant to be put into a recycling bin and stumbled on to an old box that contained 3 Santevia replacement filters for the pitcher. Here we go: Made in China. How could I not notice that before?
