Ovopur: A Water Filter that Looks Good

World Water Day is around the corner; it is a good time to think about what you are drinking. With bottled water off the table, many people are using filtered carafes like Brita filters, but they are made of polycarbonates and now that we are concerned about Bisphenol A, perhaps it is time for something that isn't made of plastic. Aquaovo's new OVOPUR might fill the bill- it is gravity fed, all porcelain, glass and mettal, and has a reusable filter cartridge full of activated charcoal, microporous bioceramics and quartz crystal to remove impurities from the water.
It is also very elegant and would sit nicely on any counter. Via ::Mocoloco; The ::Aquaovo website crashed Firefox and won't load on Explorer.
