A comment on Compostable all-natural water filters.

The ability to recycle the filters should have been played up more! That's one of the biggest things I hate about my current Brita filter.

Would be interesting to see the subscription cost for filters after the initial run.

It's going to be $15 every two months

That's great considering that a single Brita is about seven bucks.

Seems about even, or more expensive if you put it that way... However the grocery store doesn't automatically charge you if you decide not to buy a new Brita filter this month.

It looks like this will be a successful Kickstarter, so bravo to them! It's not directed at me. Words like organic, vegan, and compost-able do not attract me, and I could care less if my water pitcher is beautiful.
