the best water filter

We often take water for granted. It’s there, on tap—literally. Yet, in a world where contaminants like microplastics and PFAs are increasingly making their way into our drinking water, how we filter it matters more than ever. Enter The Watery by Milky Plant—a device that doesn’t just filter water, but redefines how we access it.

I’ve never been particularly thrilled by water filters. Most of them feel like an afterthought—slow, inefficient, and surprisingly ineffective. (Brita, for example, filters out only 15% of contaminants and really isn't worth the cost of the filter replacements in my opinion.)

The Watery, on the other hand, is in a completely different league. It filters an astounding 99.9% of impurities—microplastics, heavy metals, the lot—while remineralising your water so it actually tastes fresh rather than like it’s been sitting in a plastic jug for hours.

Instant Gratification: No More Waiting Around (Or Boiling a Kettle)

One of my favourite features is the instant hot water function. If you’re like me, and find waiting for the filter jug to run through before filling the kettle more than a little tedious, not to mention trying to have a stealth coffee before anyone else wakes up with a noisy kettle on boil, you will LOVE this machine!

With The Watery, there’s no need for a kettle at all—it delivers hot water on demand at the perfect temperature for tea, coffee, or even cooking. No waiting, no noisy kettle, no wasted energy, just hot water when you need it.

It has the binus of a 5-litre tank, which means less refilling and more drinking. Unlike a traditional filter jug, which always seems to run out just when you need it most, The Watery ensures you have a steady supply of clean, better-than-bottled-quality water throughout the day. And here’s the kicker—you can auto-dispense water even while the jug is refilling. No waiting, no faffing about, just pure, filtered water whenever you want it.

Better Filtration, Smarter Design

Unlike most water filters that only reduce a small percentage of contaminants, The Watery uses a dual-filter system:

1. A deep-cleaning filter to remove 99.9% of impurities, including heavy metals, fluoride, chlorine, PFAs, and microplastics.

2. A remineralisation filter that adds back essential minerals like calcium and magnesium, improving both taste and health benefits.

   
   

Even better, these filters are cost-effective. The cleaning filter lasts up to 6 months, while the remineralisation filter lasts up to 12 months. A pack of both costs £79, and they can be bought individually if only one needs replacing. Compared to constantly buying bottled water (or relying on filters that do a half-hearted job), this is far better value for both you and the environment.

Low Energy Use = Low Running Costs

A common concern with instant hot water systems is energy consumption. But The Watery is remarkably efficient—it has a low current draw, meaning it’s not expensive to run. You’re getting instant hot water without the guilt of a skyrocketing electricity bill. It’s smarter, more efficient, and far more convenient than constantly boiling a kettle.

Safety Meets Smarts

If you have kids, you’ll appreciate th child lock on the hot water function. No accidental scalding, no disasters in the making—just smart design with real-world usaebility in mind.

It’s clear that The Watery isn’t just about clean water—it’s about convenience, safety, and peace of mind. And, in a world where we often compromise on quality for speed, it’s refreshing (pun intended) to see a product that delivers both.

Final Thoughts: Is It Worth It?

In short: Yes.

The Watery isn’t just better than a filter jug—it’s an entirely different beast. It’s faster, more efficient, and actually does what a water filter should do—remove contaminants, not just give the illusion of doing so.

So, if you’re still wrestling with a slow, ineffective filter jug, or you’re questioning the quality of the water from your tap, The Watery might just be the upgrade you didn’t realise you needed.
