Inside the purifier is a purifying candle of advanced design. It has a micro-porous ceramic outer wall, lined with colloidal silver, and holding an inner core of Granular Activated Carbon (GAC) made from coconut shells.
The water passes through this filter to be made pure and safe in three ways:- The outer micro-porous ceramic pre-filter removes up to 99.9% of bacteria and 99% of suspended solids, by screening down to one micron.
- The water then passes through the inner core of Activated Charcoal, which removes ad taste and odours, This core is protected by a bactericidal agent to maintain the purity of the water.
- A small (and necessary) amount of dissolved minerals and active biocides are left in the water to prevent any possibility of re-contamination.
The purifier water may have a slight clay taste for up to 21 days. This is not harmful and occurs simply because the terracotta is very dry and unglazed. Emptying the purifier and completely refilling it each day during this initial period will ensure this taste disappears.
The 4 and 6 litre filters are fitted with 1 filter (known as a candle).
Dimensions: 34cm Diameter, 59cm High.Recommended use:
- 4 Litre - Small Home or Bar
- 6 Litre - Medium Home

24/10/2024, By ShelleyI definitely would not purchase this product again. The top half where the water goes in moulded on the exterior, which made the water taste terrible. Then the spring of the tap became faulty which meant we would wake up to water all over the floor, and we had to make a plan with a tap from another water dispenser. We eventually gave up and ended up buying an under-counter water filtration system which has been problem-free with consistent, clean taste. I really wish we had just done that in the first place and saved on this product, which I have no idea what to do with now.01/05/2024, By LouisaWe love it, makes the water sweet and soft on the tongue. It blocked a lot of hard water minerals and just slimy gunk. We did have it slow down within 2 months of water flow but read online to just take a knife to the outside of the candle and scrape off a layer of the stone as it gets clogged. It worked and the flow was back to it was on day 1. Still filters great after scraping.21/12/2023, By ordinary joeThe tap lasted just less than 4 months before the spring burst through the plastic, resulting in continuous flow. This just before christmas, when you can be sure no-one will be able to help.
The ceramic body requires some care when handling it. It is heavy, even with no water in. When replacing the top after changing the filter, it's easy to cause small cosmetic chips. If dropped it will certainly break.
Water quality improved compared to tap water, however, a brown scum built up on the filter over time, twice requiring disassembly and brushing off the brown before normal flow was restored.
A reverse-osmosis unit might have been a better choice, in retrospect.16/12/2023, By RikieThis product is certainly not working well. We have followed instructions putting it together, but sometimes the water comes out nicely, the next moment hardly any water comes out. Any advice will be appreciated if anyone had the same experience as this is an expensive product and we expected better.08/11/2022, By ClaireSo glad i bought it. I was looking at many filters / dispensers and this has proved to be amazing! First week it tasted abit funny but is so nice now. The water comes out cold, which is such an added bonus.23/01/2021, By LinWonderful little filter! The 12 litres of water you initially have to filter through is my only issue but once it’s up and running it’s great. There’s a bit of a metallic taste initially that goes away. Overall a lovely product.26/10/2020, By JennyI love my Stefani filter - the water is always cool and tastes wonderful!26/08/2019, By NinaOut of all water filtering options available, this one is the best because it takes everything you don't want in your water while still allowing for the healthy trace minerals to remain (thanks to the clay part!). It's a bit of extra work, but honestly, optimal health is worth it!14/04/2019, By MariGreat product. Water tastes quite earthy but good! Highly recommend this product.08/11/2018, By MalissaI have used other water filters previously but this is my new favourite and will stick with it.18/10/2018, By JessicaUpdated review: I wrote previously that it came cracked which it did but after about a week we eventully got hold of the supplier who was able to send out a replacement for me. This is all thanks to FTN and their support staff (Tania) who checked in with me daily until my problem was resolved. Excellent service as always.
Old Review:
I received this and was very excited to get my filter system up and running. After assembling it (which is very easy to do) I believed I was on my way to having great filtered water. This was not the case :( The next morning I noticed a crack in the top section of the filter. I have been trying to get this sorted but thus far the supplier has not been very helpful in getting me a replacement. (FTN has done their best to help and is very good at responding to my emails in a quick manner but this hasnt' brought much help either in resolving the issue.)
I was very nervous about ordering this to begin with because it's a lot of money, I did hectic research before the time and read every review I could find on the product. Overall I'm very happy that I went for it and believe that it's a good product to help eliminate some of the nastiness out of our water but the one thing I did not anticipate was that it would arrive damaged and that I'd have such problems getting this sorted out. This leaves me very disappointed. The water also has a slight clay taste but it's very mild and I believe one would get used to this after a while.12/10/2018, By LeoniThis is a product I truly can recommend. Cool water on tap. Easy to manage. Love the look.17/09/2018, By LeoniWe love this product. It is all that it says it it in the product review. The water is cool and has a wonderful earthy taste. The service from Faithful to Nature - EXCELLENT!14/08/2018, By LollyAfter debating this purchase for a while, I'm so pleased I finally bought this filter. Delicious tasting, crystal clear water on tap 24/7 and perfectly chilled. Definitely happy that I got the 6 litre as we're drinking more water.14/07/2018, By clean-water-loverWe've used these for many years; they're brilliant. Just about to re-invest in another one.25/05/2018, By TraceyLove our filter. Easy fuss free. Everyone who sees it wants one.31/10/2017, By MarindaLOOVE this water filter! So easy to use and looks pretty awesome too! Water from this tastes amazing, I will never go back to normal water again! VERY happy with this and glad we got the 6 litre!17/06/2017, By AyandaClean Water is a rare occurrence nowadays. This will give you a taste of how great water use to be. You won't regret your purchase
