Have been using Brita for many years as a second source of water. I hate the way the water turns green after a week or so, so I thought Larq might be better. Was very excited to getbthe lovely navy bottle and put it together with the App. After running many jugs full through, thinking it was a new filter, my conclusion is that this is a scam. The water out my tap tastes better!
I've contacted the company asking if I'd done something wrong installing the filter..got a generated response and nothing since.
The water, after running through the filter, tastes VILE!
Do not buy this product
I think I'm on my third Larq bottle at this point? Maybe fourth? Every single one I've had has red-ringed (instead of working and cleaning your water, it displays a red ring and is nonfunctional forever). Larq has been very good about replacing bottles, but enough is enough. This is brutal. I'm done.
Pros:Cool tech, smooth finish to the bottle
Cons:Breaks OFTEN, a bit heavy
I purchased the top of the line bottle. I informed Larq. They asked me some questions and for picture evidence of the broken technology. I did everything and then Larq has not responded for more than month. They suck. Waste of money.
Pros:The idea of Larq is great, but the actual technology broke within the first week of using.
Cons:Some of the worst costumer service I've ever experienced.
I have ten years' experience selling travel water bottles and I know what's good.
Pros:Until you understand the technology, you won't 'get' just how good this is. The old style portabottle is about as hygienic as the Portaloo.
Cons:None I can think of...
