This 94/100 “Excellent” Rated Water Purifier Is Finally Back.
For months, I’d been seeing the Sans Water Purifier pop up everywhere—on TikTok, in wellness blogs, on the Oasis water app with a stunning 94/100 rating. In addition to being one of the highest-rated and most beloved purifiers out there, it looked like something I’d actually want on my countertop—sleek and suave.
The only issue I could find? It was sold out. Or, at least, on a months-long backorder. I guess I wasn’t the only one who wanted this beauty. At a certain point, I started to get a little skeptical. I mean, c’mon, a water purifier being treated like a limited-edition sneaker drop? When I finally got my hands on one, I had two thoughts: 1) this thing better be life-changing after all that hype, and 2) I’m about to find out.

Long story short, the Sans Water Purifier is in such high demand for a reason. This thing is all it was hyped up to be and more. Let me explain.
My First Impressions: Clean, Sleek, Suspiciously Fancy
I’ll admit it—I was skeptical. I’ve used a Brita. I’ve used a basic under-sink filter. How different could this possibly be? But the first clue that Sans is playing a different game is the design. It’s a countertop reverse osmosis system that somehow looks more like an Apple product than a water filter. Minimalist, modern, and weirdly… sexy? Not what I was expecting.
But let’s be real: Looks don’t mean anything if the performance isn’t there. My first glass of water from this thing was fresh, smooth, and downright delicious. And I believe it: the Sans Water Purifier was fully tested to NSF standards by independent labs and proven to remove >99% of heavy metals, fluoride, chemicals, and more. (Here’s the full report.)

With 100% of customers recommending the product and 4.9 out of 5 stars, I guess this should come as no surprise to me. Sans costs $499 (although it’s currently on sale for $399), which is definitely pricey. But I’m starting to see why the demand stays so high anyway.
The State-of-the-Art Tech Behind the Sans Hype
Sans isn’t just another filter—it’s a reverse osmosis purification system with a 5-stage filtration process that removes up to 99% of contaminants. That includes heavy metals, forever chemicals (like PFAS), microplastics, bacteria, and even antibiotics that sneak their way into municipal water.
It starts with a sediment pre-filter removing dirt, silt, and suspended solids. Then, a carbon filter screens out harsh chemicals like chlorine & pesticides. Next, the “gold standard” reverse osmosis process removes up to 99% of contaminants with molecular filtration. A VOC filter absorbs all the volatile organic compounds commonly found in municipal water… and finally a bacteria-killing UV-C light acts a final layer of defense.

No wonder it got a near-perfect rating. I don’t think you could get water this pure from an untouched mountain spring.
The “Oh Wow, This Is Actually Life-Changing” Moment
I didn’t expect to taste the difference. But my first sip of Sans-filtered water was so good it was almost unsettling. No chlorine aftertaste, no weird mineral tang—just clean, crisp water. I made coffee with it, and suddenly my usual morning brew tasted like a barista who takes their job way too seriously made it.
And still, that’s not all:
- The Auto-fill feature means there’s always a full 57 fl. oz. pitcher of fresh water ready to go, you just refill the back tank as needed.
- An instant hot function lets you dispense hot water on demand (Tea drinkers? Coffee lovers? Take note. This feature is life-changing.)
- SmartPure technology features a precise TDS sensor that shows your water quality in real time.
- No installation or fancy filter installs required. Just plug it in, fill the tank, and go.
This Purifier Is Somehow so Good, It’s Worth the Wait *and* the Price
Even $399 as the on-sale price for this purifier ain’t cheap. But when you factor in the cost of bottled water, the hidden risks of subpar filters, and the sheer ease of use, it starts making a lot of sense. I waited three months for this thing, and I’d wait three months more if it meant having this on my counter every day.
Just Released: The Midnight Colorway

If their new color launch resembles anything like the Sans Midnight Air Purifier launch, they’ll sell out within a couple weeks.
It’s worth mentioning that Sans is backed by a 30-day risk-free trial and a 3-year warranty, which means you can put it to the test without commitment. (Shipping is always free.) There’s a reason this thing is always sold out, you might as well see why for yourself.

Sans Lives Up the Hype.
The Sans Water Purifier is worth the wait (and worth its weight in gold).
