Cuisinart contacted me and asked me to do a review of the Cuisinart Water Filtration System and I didn’t think there was anything with my water. Later after I had already told the company no, my husband said,
“I want to get a new water filter”.
Grrr.
I already agreed to host a giveaway so I’m very jealous of this giveaway. You guys get to have all the fun with this one.
Offering Consumers a Convenient Way to Enjoy Fresher-Tasting, Healthier Filtered Water
Water is one of the most important aspects of a healthy lifestyle, though these days consumers must be increasingly vigilant about the water they consume. Ubiquitous chemicals called phthalates can be found in nearly every American’s body, and are present in a bevy of consumer products, including plastic water bottles. These chemicals can pose serious threats to consumers’ health*, and one way of avoiding contact with them is to filter water at home, eliminating the need for bottled water altogether.
Cuisinart is introducing an affordable and convenient means of providing healthier, filtered water for the entire family, without relying on bottles. The Cuisinart® CleanWater® Countertop Filtration System is available in a 2-gallon capacity unit (model no. WCH-1500) that comes with two fast flow spigots for dispensing hot, cold or room-temperature filtered water, as well as an Energy Saver mode that cuts energy use by 50 percent when the function is engaged.
This new water filtration unit can be used to:
Heat water up to 194 degrees
make bottles
make oatmeal
make hot chocolate
make ramen
make boiling water go faster
I currently use my Keurig machine for all of that and I think the Cuisinart Water filter is much more suited for such tasks.
Drink Cool Water at 44 degrees
quiet and refreshing
(this is the kicker, I didn’t realize it didn’t need to be refrigerated. I looked at it and thought I can’t fit that in my fridge so I don’t want it. Maybe next time I’ll read the description better before I pass up on a review)
Performance:
One of the signature benefits of the Cuisinart filtration system is that the unit’s GF-80 filter significantly reduces contaminants such as lead, mercury and copper, as well as the taste and odor of chlorine. The filter has a life of three months for average household use and is certified by the Water Quality Association.
Other:
The brushed stainless steel housing of the Cuisinart CleanWater® Countertop Filtration System makes it an attractive addition to any countertop.
Cuisinart is supporting the new water filtration unit with an extensive marketing campaign, including a dedicated website, www.cuisinartcleanwater.com, which serves as a product and information resource. The site has numerous features that educate consumers on all the aspects of water and water consumption, reinforcing the importance of drinking filtered water for the health and well-being of the entire family.
Cuisinart’s WCH-1500 filtration system joins a 1.5-gallon capacity unit (WCH-1000) from the company that dispenses cold or room temperature water from a single fast flow spigot. The filtration system also has other signature product features from Cuisinart, such as thermoelectricity and a GF-80 filter that significantly reduces contaminants.

September 13, 2009 — Two new nursing bra designs that marry comfort with style are now available from Medela, the worldwide leader in breastfeeding and breastpumping research and products. The Seamless Jacquard and Microfiber Nursing Bras are smooth under clothes and provide the optimal fit and support that moms have come to expect from the Medela intimate apparel line.
All D-H cup sizes have a hidden sling for side shaping and support. Additionally, the Microfiber Nursing Bra, which is designed for larger cup sizes, offers cushioned, wider straps to help relieve shoulder pressure and prevent the straps from digging into the skin.
The bra is easy to open and close for feeding and it is made of a light material. It is soft and easy to clean. Unlike some of the other brands there are more sizes available so you can find a closer more comfortable fit. Which is important I found because you need the support from all of the weight and more control always kept me from leaking. Of course I never went without pads and they were always full. I made a ton of milk with my first and none for my second. Sizes available:
