Best Water Purifiers In India For Home (April 2024)

Why we chose it?

When it comes to water purifiers, most Indian buyers, including me, choose ‘Pureit’ over other brands. Pureit’s innovative technology, good filter quality, and amazing after-sales service set it apart from other brands.

This HUL Pureit Copper+ is not your ordinary water filter. It’s a unique combination of advanced technology and traditional Ayurvedic wisdom. Copper has been used for centuries in India for drinking water storage because of its antimicrobial properties. The HUL Pureit Copper+ uses copper to charge the water with copper ions, which have been proven to help form red blood cells, support the immune system, and aid in iron absorption.

Well, the high mineral or copper charge water is not suited for everyone, so don’t worry. You also have a dedicated normal purified water dispenser option, which is another best feature of this water purifier.

Apart from this, Pureit Copper+ uses a 7-stage purification process with RO + UV + MF technology. I use this water purifier, so I can easily claim that the filter quality is really up to mark with a good lifeline. If your use is moderate and your water TDS level is below 1000, you don’t need to change your filter before 7-8 months of use. I like to add that the filter replacement cost is also not very high like some other brands, so you don’t need to settle with after-market cheap filter replacement.

Another good thing is that the HUL Pureit Copper+ also comes with a TDS adjustment and mineral cartage. The quality of the mineral cartage is really good, and it definitely increases the pH and enhances the water test.

In terms of performance, the HUL Pureit Copper+ water purifier delivers excellent results. It has a high purification capacity of up to 8 litres per hour. The water waste is minimal compared to other low-cost brands, which is another prime advantage of this water purifier.

Not just performance, the stylish design and solid build are also the prime reasons to settle with the Pureit Copper+ water purifier. My mom loves the bottle refill station and touch-operative design concept; it’s very convenient for daily use.

Overall, the HUL Pureit Copper+ water purifier is a great choice for Indian families who want to ensure they drink clean and healthy water. It removes impurities and adds the health benefits of copper, making it a great choice for those who want to boost their immunity and overall health.

Kent is the second most popular name in the Indian water purifier industry. The KENT Grand is a new upgrade series from the brand, and it definitely deserves a second position on this list of best water purifiers in India.

KENT Grand is a wall-mounted water purifier that uses a combination of RO (Reverse Osmosis), UV (Ultraviolet), and UF (Ultra Filtration) + TDS controller to provide safe and clean drinking water. The quality of the filter is quite good, with a good lifeline, and affordable, so your maintenance cost of the machine is very pocket-friendly. This machine has no mineral cartage, but if required, you can easily install it by yourself or a technician.

One of the unique features of KENT Grand is its digital display, which is very convenient for daily use. The display shows filter life, RO flow rate, and purified water quality information. If you don’t need a digital display, you also have a normal version option (lower cost).

The KENT Grand has a high storage capacity of 9 litres, ensuring that you have enough water for your entire family. Its sleek design and transparent cover give it a decent look. Yahh! This design is now out of trend, and it doesn’t look good with a modern kitchen setup, so I think Kent needs to consider it.

Otherwise, the purification process is very fast, delivering up to 20L of water per hour. Kent also markets this product as a zero-water waste purifier, but it’s just the marketing team; the reality is quite different.

Overall, The KENT Grand water purifier is definitely a value for a money choice with good quality hardware, low maintenance cost, and good after-sales service. If you are OK with its old-school design and do not require any advanced features, then you can definitely go with this water purifier.

Pureit Vital Max is another best water purifiers you can buy if you don’t require a UF filter. If your water source is good (ex, Metro City Corporation water), you have no need for a UF filter; R0+UV+Mineral should be enough for you.

For extra, the Pureit Vital also has a separate Mineral Enhancer Cartridge, which ensures the right amount of minerals in your water. The purifier has a TDS controller that adjusts the TDS level of the purified water, ensuring that it is safe to drink and has a great taste.

Pureit Vital Max Detail Review

One of the most appealing aspects of the HUL Pureit Vital Max is its user-friendly features. The water purifier has three status indicators, including the ‘Smartsense Indicator,’ which warns you 15 days before the filter expiry.

The HUL Pureit Vital Max also has a smart water-saving mode that promises 60% more water efficiency than others. I cannot confirm this claim, but it is much faster than my previous purifier and probably wastes much less water.

Considering its filtration performance, user-friendly features, and sleek design, the Pureit Vital Max is undoubtedly a worthy investment for those who want to ensure their families have access to clean and safe drinking water. So, if you’re looking for a reliable and efficient water purifier, the HUL Pureit Max should definitely be your first choice.

Aquaguard by Eureka Forbes is a well-known and trusted brand in the water purifier industry. With years of experience and a strong commitment to good after-sales service, you can be assured of the quality and performance of the Aquaguard Marvel NXT water purifier.

The biggest selling point of the Aquaguard Marvel NXT is the inbuilt active copper technology. Along with AC cartage, the company also added the full-size mineral cartage, which helps improve the water test and adds some beneficial minerals to your drinking water.

Otherwise, the purification process includes a pre-filter, sediment filter, activated carbon filter, RO membrane, UV e-boiling, and mineral guard technology. The performance is really good with the industry standard filter quality, and the purification process is also very smooth and speedy (15L/h). Don’t be confused by the name ‘UV boiling; this is just for marketing purposes; otherwise, it’s just a normal EV lamp.

The Marvel NXT has a storage capacity of 8 litres, which is sufficient for an average-sized family. Yes, I do have some complaints about the build of this product, but design-wise, I really like it. The Marvel NXT features a sleek, compact, stylish design that easily blends with your kitchen interiors.

In conclusion, the Aquaguard Marvel NXT is a decent water purifier at an affordable price range. The lost maintenance cost and fast after-sales service are the main reasons to choose this water purifier over others.

The Livpure GLO is a very popular water purifier series in the budget segment. One of my friends recently bought the Livpure GLO PRO++ water purifier, and he has only one complaint: the company didn’t provide a pre-filter in the box. You must buy it separately (600-700 Rs) when most other brands provide it.

The Livepure GLO is available in 4-5 different variants with different filter technology combinations. You can buy any of them according to your source water TDS (link available at the bottom of this review).

Apart from this, the build quality of the Livepure GLO is quite good and definitely justifies the price tag; the only thing that needs improvement is the tap design and build. It’s very slim and compact on the design front, making it an attractive addition to any kitchen. It also has tiny, good-looking icon lights, indicating any power status, water tank full, and purification status. It has no advanced features or filter replacement indications, but it’s cool! We can’t say much at this price.

Regarding maintenance, the Liverpure GLO after-sales service is average (not the best, not too bad, according to 30-32 customer reviews), and the filter replacement cost is minimal.

The Livpure GLO PRO water purifier is good for reliable and affordable water purification solutions.

The Kent Elegant is my next choice on this list of best water purifiers. It comes in four variants: RO+UV+UF+Copper, RO+UV+UF+Alkaline, RO+UV+UF, and RO+UF. You can buy any one of them according to your water source TDS. I highly recommend you go with the first two variants.

The Kent also provides an inbuilt TDS controller, so you don’t need to buy it separately. KENT Elegant comes with an 8-litre storage tank, ensuring you have a sufficient supply of purified water even during power outages. The water purification process is very fast, but water waste is a little bit high. One of the standout features of the KENT Elegant water purifier is its copper and alkaline cartage addon. The four-year free service is also the reason to choose this water purifier.

The V-Guard is a new entry in the water purifier industry, but it is gaining popularity very quickly with its good after-sales service and solid performance. The Rejive model by V-Guard is available in four different models with mineral and alkaline cartridge addons.

Additionally, the provided filter quality is really good and provides effective purification. The company also provides the two pre-filter replacements free of cost, which is really cool. The V-Guard Rejive also has an indicator light for the purification process, a full tank, and low pressure.

Why we chose it?

If your source water quality is good and the TDS level is below 150, then you don’t need RO; only UV or UV+UF is fine for you. So, if you are looking for a good quality UV water purifier with water storage capacity, then HUL Pureit Marvella is an ideal option. Along with the UV chamber, it also comes with an inbuilt four-stage verification that removes any solid particles.

The Pureit Marvella also has an alert system that warns you 12 days before your purifier stops working.
