Zero Water Filter Reviews

The quality of the filter is poor. Using the filter I noticed crusty objects in my mouth which I had already consumed. After inspection it seemed the filter particles had broken through and into my glass. Became violently sick and needed to consult my doctor. Requested support from Zero company but customer service (Erik) simply ignored communication. Now seeking professional legal advice.

Having a major issue with theses filters. Brand new filter leaks through around seat. Checked threads on reservoir and filter. No cross threading or damage. Tried reseating filter. Still leaked so put another new filter in. It wouldn’t drain through filter and started seeping through threads. The filters are too expensive to keep tossing them in the garbage.

Been buying zero filters. from walmart worked good for a year now filters go bad after a few weeks and can smell bad. very pissed off from n cal

filter doesn't last very long and in short time you're smelling fish!!

We only getting a week out of our filter or approximately 4 gallons. Our TDS on our tap water is 300. Filters are too expensive to continue to use this system. Was hoping to at least get a month out of 1 filter. I would not recommend this product due to high cost of filter replacement weekly.

Sent back for a refund. boiled filtered water causes the kettle to smell fishy. clean kettle and a few days later the smell returns. change back to non filtered water and no problem. I then checked on line and the problem is apparently down to how the Zero water filter operates . This makes the filter useless in my opinion save your time and money buy a different make!

There seems to be a problem with my Zero Water Filters from Amazon. Brand new filters produce filters water as high as 100 TDS. While my Kansas City water is 250 TDS normally. All the while they do not last 2-3 weeks before the numbers are high. After being a customer for 6-7 years I am finished with ZW.

I purchased my Zerowater pitcher and a spare filter at Walmart 3 months ago. Since then, the filters are only lasting about 4-5 weeks each. I have had to replace two filters and just installed a third one today. During week 4 of a new filter, the water starts tasting strongly of what seems to me to be charcoal. It is not the “fishy” taste of an old filter. By week 5 I can’t really stand the charcoal taste anymore. The TDS reading of the filtered water is zero even when this terrible taste is present. My unfiltered water tastes fine.

I have a municipal water supply with very good quality water. The TDS rating per the measuring tool that came with the pitcher is 125 before filtering. We are not using that much filtered water. My household is only 2 adults and we only use the water to make coffee/tea and for drinking water. I can’t imagine why this is happening. I shouldn’t have to keep paying for a new filter every 4 weeks when the TDS is still zero!

This is not the filter performance I expected based on my prior use of this product years ago. This performance is not acceptable. When I owned a ZeroWater years ago, the filter typically a filter lasted 3 months and that was with water much worse than the water I have now. In the past, when the filter was “used up”, it smelled/tasted fishy – not like charcoal.

Something is not working properly. I am concerned that ZeroWater is having production problems with their filters.

I've used Zero Water filters for several years now and never had an issue. I live in Florida. In the past week I've returned one box with two filters because the meter said 004 when I treated a cup of water. Should be 000. Today I got another box of two filters and the TDS read 029. What gives? I tested a bottle of Publix purified water and it was at 000 so its not the TDS meter. Is it the meter manufacturing? I don't think I can trust this product now. Water tastes sour.

We had good water with our Zero water for about two days and then the water started to taste like lemon and metal was soaking in the water. We couldn't even choke down the water after the two days.

I am SO dissatisfied with this $40 water filter pitcher that I will contact ZeroWater for a refund.

The water tastes good but the inconsistency with the filters is a problem. Some filters work correctly but lately a lot of the filters do not allow any water to go through. Some tale hours to produce a gallon of water. There is definitely a problem in manufacturing because most of the filters now are defective. It is a shame that their quality control is so weak, the zero water was a great idea. I will try to send 8 new filters back because none of them would produce water. Very frustrating and a waste of time! Get your act together Zero Water

I've been using Zero water (from Brita) thinking it was better. It is for about 2-3 weeks then the water tastes so sour. I measure it constantly. Right now, it's a 4 and I can taste the sour. This is disgusting. I'm not so sure I want to continue with Zero water if I'm replacing filters twice a month. It's probably better I just install a filter in the tap. It's too bad...the water tastes really good for a short period of time.

My experience with Zerowater is definitely mixed. I was using the Britta and was happy with it. Then came the virus and my wife suggested the Zerowater 23cup container. The first filter lasted maybe 3months. The water would just sit there or take hours for it to finish.Changed it( 2 were included) now less than two months later the filter seems already jammed. I filled it last night and there's still water up top.Thankfully I kept the Britta. I may need it till I order more filters. Any suggestions?
