5 reasons NEW mums are using this water filter to fight back against their hyper-sensitive senses
By Emma Clarke New Mum Tips n' Tricks
Are you a pregnant mum who's trying everything to drink enough water but are constantly put off by the smell or taste?
Tap water smells like a swimming pool. Filter jugs require multiple manual daily refills. The smell of plastic from a plastic bottle makes the water taste as if it's been left in back of the car for days.
You've even tried glass mason jars, herbal teas and mint-infused water but nothing stops that off-putting odour that makes drinking enough water a real challenge.
This is exactly why over 180,000 UK homes use this obvious yet forgotten about trick to stop their water having a hold over them.
1. The change of smell is NOT in your head
The change of smell and taste is different for everyone. But a common one we read about is water that tastes 'metallic' or 'swimming pool like' or 'copper coiny'.
This can be caused by something called Dysgeusia, a distorting of your taste.

2. You're told to drink more water - but what if it tastes rank?
Like a lot of advice, staying hydrated is always mentioned. But what do you do when the water tastes horrible?
Chlorine is routinely used to disinfect the water - great.
But this water can then taste like a leisure centre swimming pool - not great.
This Chlorine smell can be contributing to your current distaste for water. That's why a water filter can make a real difference to your sense of smell and taste.
3. Why I would switch to something powerful and easy to setup
Unlike a lot of filter systems, I would always reccomend one where you don't need a new tap. That can turn into a lot of headache (that you definitely don't need at the moment).
I'd reccomend something that goes under the sink and turns the tap into a stream of filtered water before it reaches your glass.
No bulky jug filters, no endless refills — just filtered, great-tasting water whenever you turn on the tap.
4. It's not just tackling the smell and taste - it's what else it can filter
I feel that people are becoming more aware of what they consume, whether it's the food they eat, the clothes they wear or the water they drink. It's good to be in as much control as possible.
That's why the Water2 Pod 2.0 can filter up to 95.28% of Chlorine tackling that smell and taste.
But it can also filter things like lead, microplastics and THM's as well.* It's powerful, convenient and trusted by over 180,000 homes to deliver filtered water straight from the tap.
5. Taste can be subjective but satisfaction shouldn't be
Water2 offers a 100 day 'love it or leave it' guarantee on all of their orders.
That means you can try it for 99 days and on the 99th day if you are not absolutely certain that having filtered water on tap has not improved your life, feel free to return for a full refund.

Water2 gives you the best tasting water, guaranteed. It’s also simple to setup so you can start drinking filtered water from the tap in just 10 minutes.
Been debating for a long time and finally took the plunge. Went for the additional fluoride filter too.
Wow, how can I explain the difference!!
Water no longer tastes of anything, just how I think it should be. Much better.
Water beside my bed no longer tastes of chemicals in the morning. A pleasure to drink.
Can only hope it's better for my health, shame there will never be a way to be sure.
All I can say is I'm happy to hope it is.
We’d had our first filters just over a year when the alarm went off. Telling us it was time to change our filters. Boy did we notice a difference in the taste of our water. So, bought the replacements. Just untwist and slot into place. So easy and makes such a huge difference. I have and will continue to recommend to friends and family.
It wasnt as easy to fit as i hoped..thankfully a mate helped me...but so pleased with it now..my teenager says its slower water flow now but even he notices the difference in the water taste ..so highly recommend
Great experience, I ordered the 2.0 capsule that was delivered really quickly, I had issues woth casing as mine was an older casing so the newer capsule did not fit. I sent an email and a new casing was shipped out free of charge
Excellent customer service.
We are retired and unable to get down so our Son fit it
It literally took 3 minutes very happy so far glad we went for it as changing a filter every month was tedious
New system arrived to replace the original filter I had fitted. It was easy to set up, the hoses were long enough that I could sit the filter on the base in the corner of the under sink unit.
Great tasting water with minimum effort, very happy with it.
It has been fitted neatly under my sink. I am delighted that I no longer need to use a water filter jug. It is so convenient to have clean fresh tasting filtered water straight from the tap.
Thank you so much. ⭐️
Water really tastes much better! The kettle and the iron have no more limescale.
Only disadvantage is the reduced water flow.
The filters only need changing once a year, I would recommend them.
Easy to swap over took less than a minute water off unscrew and screw the new one in water back on. Just remember a bucket underneath as you unscrew the old one!!
I had to buy two 10mm male to 8mm female push fit connectors as we had an existing filter by Britta but this is so much better and easier to change. The filters seem to have been updated as they are different to those shown in the instructions or videos.
