activated carbon filter removes all volatile organic chemicals (VOC), pesticides and herbicides, as well as chlorine, benzene, trihalomethane (THM) compounds, radon, solvents and hundreds of other man-made chemicals found in tap water. (It doesn't remove flouride.)
The filter lasts up to 6 months then you start to notice that it needs to be replaced, equivalent to 250 refills.

Good product, worth the money It's a good product and the non spill cap really works; so much so that you have to give it a good squeeze to get the water out.... It's not brita filtered standard, but defintely drinkable and is saving me a fortune! -
