Tata Swach Non Electric Smart 15 Litre Gravity Based Water Purifier

WOW! was the first impression that i got when i open the box. The package contained multiple items which needs to be assembled and it was easy as well. Neat and clean. It is almost a month since i am using this product and i must say that it is an excellent product. The taste of filtered water is very good. There is no maintainance issues with it. Fill it shut it and forget it.. you will keep on getting pure water.Please compare it with the products of it types i.e. conventional and non electric based purifier. I did found some people comparing this product with the RO purifiers which is not appropriate. At this cost you will not get a better quality and a very trusted brand.Also i feel proud that i have contrubuted a portion by buying an Indian product which is Make in India.

PRO: Perfectly working, Small size, no smell from water, cartridge available in amazon at a reasonable price, TATA valueCON: Slightly difficult design, Upper part plastic not enough strong, should be under Rs 1200.Advise: unless u tighten the cap as said in the instruction, water would leak from upper chamber to lower one.u need to match two arrows shown in the body of the filter while tightening . To fix the cartridge with upper chamber u need to twist the knob up to a limit which is shown by giving a small projected part where the knob stops. Ensure all the parts are sent along with two washers and a nut for tap and Read the manual properly before trying. U can go for it.

Pathetic and poor quality plastic. Other than the outer container's plastic, the inside contraptions are really hard to assemble and looks too fragile. The instruction manual was not matching with the components delivered!!! (could not believe my eyes that a TATA product could do this!!). The instruction manual was perhaps either from the the older version or newer version. Therefore, I was on my own while assembling this confounded contraption. Putting together the parts is such a pain without a proper instruction manual. The instruction manual was of such poor quality, i was cursing and swearing at who ever came up with the idea of saving 20 paise on the print quality. After spending 30 minutes, i put together the damned unit , only to find that the water was dripping from the poor quality tap, not from the sides, but right through the tap's nozzle (the inside valve mechanism of the tap is faulty. Some savings here, i am almost sure!!). The filter on top of the container is exposed and there is no cover at the top!! [Can this be?? Or the bloke who packed the items together missed it???] In all, this product fell flat on its face, not for the innovation, but for the final quality and due to lacking "eye for the detail". Originally, it may have been a good innovation to spring such an idea, but TATA failed in productionising the idea!! Anybody listening in TATA??. Hello??!!

This is a very good product. Its easy to assemble and start using. I have been using this for almost 6 months now.Pros:Filters fast, assembles easily, does not need power.Cons:The filter to tank seal is leaky, if we tilt the above tank a little, water leaks out of the threading and possibly into the filtered water below. This isn't good! we have to be really careful to keep the tank perfectly vertical at all times. Even when we are ferrying it from the sink after filling.The capacity mentioned is not actually of 15 litres , only half of this is drinkable water. We are a 2 person family and we finish this in 2 days or lesser.The outlet tap is really small. To fill a 1 ltr bottle you have to wait and wait and wait for it to fill. The outlet should have been larger. The pace is really annoying.Do i recommend this ? yes. It's useful if you don't want to spend much / live in a rented place with no aquaguard etc.Would I buy it again ? No. I'm impatient and don't like the cons above. I Will look for an alternative next time.

Very useful for 1 or a max of 2 people living in a house. Works really well and the quantity is enough for a day or two. There is not need of electricity, it's easy to clean, doesn't occupy much space (important for small kitchens) and can be packed into a smaller box for transport.Note that it is not a replacement for RO and people in localities with very heavy water or known mineral problems should go for RO purifiers. This is more for people who want to avoid boiling water every day or not purchase fixed purifiers like Aquaguard.

I am using another Tata Swach water purifier for over 3 years now and satisfied with its performance. I bought this one expecting similar experience. However, 2 issues with this unit have prompted me to give a 2 star rating:1. Though it purifies the water, it does not improve the taste if the water is hard.2. I am unable to locate a vendor who can supply me with the 1500Litre capacity Yellow cartridge used in this filter. Even Tata Cliq and Tata Chemicals sites do not stock this. I'm wondering whether I'll have to scrap this purifier after the cartridge fuse cuts off the output.

When I ordered I thought about the bulb. Coz which bulb was put in the image that was not available now. But when I got it, I found that it was not the same it is now modified bulb which is available in the market. So I am happy

I have been using this for almost 3 years now. Pros - very reasonably pricedCons - need to empty once in a while and wash filters every week, washing the top portion is a hassle because of it's shape.
