Crystal Quest Countertop Water Filter
|
No other countertop water filter offers this level of filtration at such an affordable price. Crystal Quest has been manufacturing quality water filters for over 30 years, and the Crystal Quest countertop water filter utilizes cutting-edge technology in its 6 stages of filtration.
Stage 1: A 1-micron pre-filter pad removes suspended particles like sediment, silt, sand, rust, dirt, and cysts like cryptosporidium and giardia.
Stages 2 and 3: The water flows through KDF-55D and KDF-85D filter media, made from copper and zinc. KDF electrochemically removes contaminants through the process of oxidation-reduction (REDOX). While standard carbon filters tend to lose effectiveness over time, KDF media continues working well through the entire life of the filter. KDF removes chlorine, hydrogen sulfide, iron, lead, mercury, nickel, aluminum, and other dissolved metals, and it inhibits the growth of bacteria throughout the whole filter unit.
Stage 4: An ion exchange resin softens the water and removes heavy metals.
Stage 5: Granulated activated carbon (GAC) adsorbs chlorine, trihalomethanes (THMs), benzene, pesticides, volatile organic compounds (VOCs), PCBs, MTBEs, and hundreds of other chemical contaminants, as well as bad tastes and odors. The filter media is made from high-grade coconut shell carbon.
Stage 6: A 1-micron post-filter pad removes any remaining suspended particles.

Crystal Quest Countertop Water Filter Reviews
I just love my stainless steel countertop water filter! It’s built very well and sturdy, and it’s so shiny and gorgeous. I’ve seen other countertop filters that I wouldn’t want sitting out in my kitchen, but this one is very stylish and decorative even. It matches the rest of my kitchen so well. Now I just wish I had a stainless steel refrigerator!
