LARQ Pitcher PureVis (8-cup, UV-C)

LARQ ranks last in this category — the certification gap is decisive for a safety-first rubric. Both Water Filter Guru and Quality Water Lab explicitly flag the absence of NSF certification. UV-C technology and electronic indicator are genuine innovations, and fill time is the fastest in the set. But without third-party verification of PFAS, lead, or heavy metal removal, LARQ cannot be recommended for families with chemical contamination concerns — which describes the vast majority of US households.
