Good product with design weaknesses

I bought this water filter for a small office with numerous tea drinkers. The local water is quite calcareous, so that rapidly a visually very unsavory "skin" formed on the tea that quite tenaciously to pot and cups anlagerte and only through the Einsaz mechanical force ("scrub") had to be removed again.

The water filter actually works surprisingly well: Of the skin is nothing more to see, from a functional point of maximum points, 5 stars.

The point deduction for Design's margins: The water tap is undersized, so that often get the (predominantly female) employees when filling the kettle "long arms". A small platform as known in principle from rain barrels is, however, not even available.

In addition, the faucet is positioned such that the water filter is mandatory to set up "on edge", in order to remove any water can.

The last approximately 1.5 liters eventually can be found only when the filter is tilted forward. Then one when AUH still has a jar in one hand, a few hands often missing: There is great danger that the - already "on edge" standing - filter, he leans forward, just there, "going like Schmidts cat ".

Summary: function perfectly, design optimization in need!
