AquaTru Review - Laboratory Tested Water

We test the AquaTru, a countertop reverse osmosis water purifier. In our tests, we took filtered water and sent it to a 3rd party laboratory for testing. Is the water ACTUALLY better? See what the lab has to say.

9:02 Summary

The AquaTru Classic is a countertop reverse osmosis system. It uses a 4-stage filtration system with fantastic results. Thanks to help from SimpleLab, we were able to get laboratory testing on the filtered water. When compared to unfiltered water, the AquaTru showed the filters work incredibly well.

It is the most highly purified water we have tested to date. Additionally, the filters are cost efficient, producing one gallon of purified water for just $0.12. It is easy to set up, use, maintain, and ultimately is a great option for at home water filtration.

Exciting to see filters put to the test in the real world! :-)

I didn’t realise you’d tested other water filters, I’ll have to check that video out. Also it fun seeing any out takes or extra bits at the end, you should add more if you have them 😆

[kellyyoung]

Found this video and especially your previous video testing other water filter pitchers VERY helpful. If and when you are going to do another follow up video it would be great to consider ProPur by ProOne and Clearly Filtered. Thanks!

[johnnyhp.]

Awesome work. It's interesting to see data on water filtration products that don't have WQA/NSF/IAPMO certifications.

[camillechimier]

Thank you this video is useful 🙏 and your review is very thorough. I just placed an order I am convinced now that it is the best options

How can I take these systems seriously when they are using plastic tanks instead of borosilicate glass or stainless steel?? Plastic leaches chemicals ( not just bpa) that are known endocrine disruptors, in an age where diabetes(an endocrine disorder) is beyond being an epidemic. How they expect the public to take their products or intentions seriously??

Wow your aresnic levels in AZ are only 0.0021 PPM our village's water test shows 9ppm, juuuust below the acceptable legal limit but nobody does anything about it or cares, the levels of contaminants have been creeping up slowing since 2019 tests were done. I just ordered one of these RO systems I can't wait to get it. Good review.

[eckankar]

Thank you for the demo. From looking at reviews there are many complaints about the system breaking down and leaking after a few months. Even complaints with the BBB about this company. Have you used this system for a long time? I see a 30 day return, far short time period for the problems that are occurring after several month's use.

@ModernCastle thanks for your videos they’re awesome. I have a question about AquaTru filters, dont you think that after a few months the filters start accumulating algae or other bacteria? Is there a way that we can clean the filter every month to avoid this formation? Like using hydrogen peroxide or vinegar?

[Ryan-ezjn]

Great video! You should do a review on clearly filtered water pitcher!

[Turtle]

Very good video! I have this aquatru unit

[TheLastGen]

Will you be testing the Mineral Boost Ph+ filter by AquaTru? Not a single person has done this. I’m really surprised. Would love to see the results

[davido]

Am researching countertop ro filters to help guide a friend who's shopping for one. So far I have found ZERO CHANNELS who aren't trying to sell what they're reviewing. And then here, the lab who tested the water is a sponsor of this. Now all of it might very well be on the up and up and this AquaTru might be a real deal. But I'm thinking otherwise. Sigh. On I continue.

Can you review and lab test the RKIN U1? A lot of claims

[udayakumar]

Thanks for the video. Which is overall best in the market now? Aquatru vs waterdrop?

[FillyAnne]

Have you or anyone else you know tested the Aquatru with the alkaline filter attached? I would be interested to see if the optional filter adds anything bad to the water.

[ColombianMusclePapi]

A GREAT review and indepth analysis! THANK YOU

[alxndrassies]

I was hoping to find a video about faucet filters after seeing your great video on pitchter filters... All I find on other channels are just smacked together promotional videos with the sole purpose of promoting their affiliate links - no real testing like you do!

Was the AquaTru able to reduce the fluoride to 0?
