Sorry I’m not an enlightened tap water enjoyer like I just can’t do that to myself…
I’ve posted about her a few times. I’m a cheapskate and try to get deals on everything by buying used or refurbished or open box so this one stands out as one of my best pricier purchases. It’s about $400 so it’s not super expensive but it is compared to a Brita pitcher lol.
I thought about getting a Berkey but they are so huge and cumbersome and I didn’t want something that took up so much space + after doing research I decided the Bluevua filtration system is superior.
It’s honestly such a cool little device!! It’s just a tad bigger than a drip coffee machine and has a similar setup where the water is filtered into a borosilicate glass pitcher. It shows you the contaminant particulate level on the display. The water goes through four steps of purification and then a remineralization step. The filters last about one to two years. I just replaced mine for the first time since buying it and it was crazy how heavy the filters were compared to the new ones! And obviously it’s PORTABLE so you can take it with you anywhere you move.
It comes out tasting like the purest most perfect water you’ve ever seen. I used to have a Penguin filter pitcher and I hated that if I left a glass of water standing for too long it would have a weird taste but that never happens with this water because there’s nothing in it to like go bad or whatever 🤢 If you love the taste of bottled water but don’t want to expose yourself to microplastics and want to stop creating so much waste this is the MOVE and it’s much cheaper in the long run.

💧I learned recently that we should be drinking 3.7 liters of water a day (2.7 liters for women). It was tough for me to reach that quota because my bottle was so small, and I had to twist the cap every time to take a sip (lol, it’s a lot of effort okay?). On a different note, I’ve been trying to ditch Hydroflasks and Swells because they leave the smell of drinks that aren’t water and their straws are really hard to clean (again, first world problems). So Alex told me about Purist. The inside of Purist bottles are constructed with a thin wall of glass, so no smell, and easier to clean, yay! I got the Founder 32oz with a Union top, so it’s easy to take a sip and no straws to clean. It’s been about two weeks, and ya boy is a hydrated happy camper.

Yes it is a stanley dupe. But it is SO MUCH BETTER.
the straw mouthpiece can be folded down so that it’s not open to the air all the time and it’s actually leakproof. The sheer size of this vessel doubles as a weapon when fully filled w water. The insulation works so well for hot&cold drinks. Mine keeps ice cubes unmelted for almost 24 hrs. The wide lid opening makes it easy to clean the inside. The handle is so solid and perfect. I have dropped her many times and she is sturdy. You will never have to suffer the fate of running out of water too early… and the size of this thing + the straw makes you drink so much more water. If you dont want to use a straw, there’s a sip mouthhole for hot drinks. Basically everything a Stanley bottle is, but addresses all it’s short comings.
I bought mine for less than $30CAD after tax at winners but you can buy it online on their website for like $25USD.
ALSO LIFETIME WARRANTY which I have already claimed once bc my lid was getting gross (one caveat but oh well)
Everywhere I go people always ask me about my giant water bottle. I love her.

🚰My faucet is moldy. My pipes are rusted. My cups are dirty. But you bet your fucking ASS I’m not buying bottled water. No siree not for me. A brita? Oh sorry I don’t remember becoming a millionaire.

It lends a reflective and wistful tone to written communications imo…

My dad teases me about how when I was a little kid, my favorite thing to do when I was on the landline phone with somebody—be it a relative or one of my best friends—was to breathlessly describe the things that were in my bedroom so that they could have a mental picture of everything I loved and chose to surround myself with, and where I sat at that moment in time. Perfectly Imperfect reminds me of that so thanks for always listening and for sharing with me too 💌
