Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Mavea 1001122 Maxtra Replacement Filter for Mavea Water Filtration Pitcher, 3-PackCustomer Review: Life of filter depends on the water it is filtering Summary: 4 Stars
Many people seemed to be concerned about the life expectancy of the filter. This filter really does respond to the water it is filtering. For the most part I am the sole user of my Mavea & having used it for awhile I've learned just about how much life each filter has, even by the .25% as shown on the display. Its just something you absorb. Anyway, I took my pitcher on an extended trip to the mountains & WOW! What a difference the water made. I did not need to use the spare, which I should have needed and still had mileage on my original filter to use once I was back in the city. Once back home the filter was quickly eaten up as per usual. On a second occasion I noticed that my filter was being eaten up. I was barely using it and the life was going,going,gone. I thought, like many perhaps it was the gauge until I realized that for the past several nights, thanks to my insomnia, that I was filling up my pitcher when the water plant must have been treating the water and was getting a particularly strong stream of chlorinated/chemically treated water. We've all had that, when you open the tap & smell the chlorine & most of us at one time or another have taken a sip of that water before our brains register the smell & bad taste. I am happy to say that once I paid attention & stopped filling the pitcher when the water appeared to be treated that my filter went back to the life expectancy that I am used to. These two incidents make me believe that the filter is doing its job and doing it well. I think treating the each unique water source is more valuable than an overall specified length of time or volume of water filtered. My suggestion is spend some time using your pitcher, get to know the average life expectancy of your filter & then IF it seems to be getting eaten up start questioning the efficacy of the gauge (might also want to see if something has changed in your water source as well).
Just an FYI to all the people that are unaware of it... Mavea, as well as most brands of filters recommend that you do not filter more than 2 pitchers a day or within a certain amount of time between fill ups for maximum filtering. Also, the Mavea filter filters the water much faster than the different types of PUR filters that I have used (sorry, haven't had a Brita), but according to statistics given by both manufacturers Mavea filters out less things than the PUR triple action filter or whatever their strongest pitcher filter is. Hopefully Mavea will come up with an even better & stronger filter soon. That is the reason for only 4* otherwise Mavea rocks!

MAVEA water filter cartridge with MAXTRA filtration technology provides cleaner, great-tasting filtered water. |
Superior Components Lead to Great-Tasting Water Each MAVEA Maxtra water filter cartridge is certified--by WQA to NSF/ANSI 42 and 53--to significantly minimize chlorine taste, odor, as well as water contaminants, such as heavy metals, agricultural chemicals, and industrial pollutants. The cartridge's smart design maximizes contact time with tap water to ensure your filtered water tastes fresh and clean, as water should.The filter media is treated with silver to discourage the growth of bacteria and maximize filter's life. In addition, a micro-screen in the filter reduces the release of black carbon particles. No presoaking is required to activate the filter, which offers consistent flow and filtration throughout its lifespan. Designed for More Convenience The new design starts with an easy grip ring on the top of the filter for easy installations and removals. Once in the system, the filter is ready to go, as pre-soaking is not required to activate the carbon. A micro-screen inside the filter reduces those annoying little black carbon bits from escaping into the system. Toast to Cleaner Water and a Greener Planet The MAVEA Maxtra filter not only delivers great filtration and ease of use but is also . Americans send an estimated 38 billion water bottles to landfills each year. In comparison, each MAVEA water filter equals approximately 300 bottles of water--without the associated waste. MAVEA is the only water filter company that offers a comprehensive filter recycling program. Consumers can easily recycle used filters at recycling bins located in participating stores, or by sending them directly through the mail at MAVEA's expense. The company recycles the used filters at its facility, where the components are separated, cleaned, and reused in commercial non-food filter applications--you can be sure absolutely no parts will end up in a landfill.
