My husband and I strive to make our home as healthy and eco-friendly as possible, particularly because we have a little boy and one on the way. One of the things we do is avoid buying bottled water. I can’t say that we’ve eliminated plastic water bottles completely, but for the most part, we use a PUR Water Pitcher when we’re at home. We also try to use a reusable water bottle when we’re out so we don’t have to purchase bottled water. What I’ve found is that when we’re out all day, we tend to buy bottled water when our reusable water bottles are empty (or hot).
Thanks to Ecousable, we received a 25 ounce Stainless Steel Ech20 Filtered Water Bottle. Not only is this reusable, it has a filter so you can refill it on the go from any tap water source. It’s truly brilliant! Here is a little more information from the site:
Enjoy filtered tap water on the go instantly filtered as you drink through the ech2o Ionic-Adsorption Micro-Filtration System! This exclusive top removes up to 99.99% of pollutants for up to 100 gallons of great tasting filtered water.
I am most impressed with the convenience this bottle offers. So many times I hear people talk about how expensive or time-consuming “going green” is. Fresh, filtered water couldn’t be easier (or cheaper). For $40 (yes, a bit pricey at first glance), you’ll get 100 gallons of filtered water (which replaces 757 half liters of bottled water). And the water tastes great! Now this is coming from a girl who was called a bottled water snob in the past. Additional filters can be purchased for $25. There are a lot of misconceptions about tap water. In fact, much of the bottled water you purchase is no better than tap water.
One of the questions my husband asked me was where I could filter the water from. The answer: Any source and any type of water except salt water. That is truly impressive. If you think about it, in an emergent situation you could use this bottle for survival (hey, I live in Southern California where Emergency Preparedness is on the forefront of our minds). The bottle is perfect for camping, hiking and other outdoor venues where clean water may not be readily available.

Profuse thanks to Mom Fuse for this review opportunity.

Yes I this this little invention is a very good product and I will invest in one and try it out. I also highly recommend the larger scale filtration process of a water cooler.
