Customer Review: Hockey Gear Stink, Dirty Car, Bacterial Infections - GONE
Summary: 5 Stars
This review is written by my wife:
I've had mine for about seven months. I was very skeptical, but it passed the first and hardest test with flying colors. My son's hockey gear cannot be cleaned. The pads, helmet, etc. stink worse than any men's locker room on the planet. Just walk by a couple of adult hockey players and breath deeply to get a whiff of what I'm talking about. I took all his nonwashable gear and sprayed it with the processed water from my Lotus. Instantly his gear (which had previously been stored outdoors because it's odor would knock you over) smelled like a cleansing rain. Powerful! Then I took half his jerseys (which my son keeps in his hockey bag and never washes---pee ew!) and washed them in the wash with detergent and the other half I just processed one at a time in the food bowl. The results were obvious. The jerseys I processed smelled cleaner and looked better than those laundered.
Another great use, outside of the usual, was washing my car. Instead of using the hose and wasting lots of water, I used two spray bottles of processed water and the car came out shining. Did I mention that it took half the time to clean my car than the usual method and I didn't have to dry it off! Since our community currently has a water shortage, this was a great way to conserve. Not to mention I can wash my car in the garage without even having to pull it out!
I tried spraying it on a bacterial infection. It worked in one application. Within 2 days the infection was gone saving me a trip to the doctors and a prescription for an antibiotic.
I was a BIG skeptic and had gotten the machine through a focus group so I hadn't intended to keep it. It made me a believer, and I would gladly pay full price for this gem. BTW one of my first issues with this unit was, "Where the heck am I going to keep yet another kitchen gadget that I have no room for?" Well, when I brought it home I figured out I could keep it on top of my clothes dryer in my laundry room where there is a convenient electrical outlet high on the wall which I can easily reach. It is out of the way, yet convenient to the kitchen as well as the garage. I keep it there all the time and use it a lot.
Customer Review: How much Ozone does this product spew into the indoor air in the house?
Summary: 3 Stars
Ozone is a good disinfectant, but also is harmful to humans when it is inhaled. It can be a source of indoor air pollution and cause breathing problems. Do we know how much ozone this product releases in the air during its functioning? Can the ozone "bubble" out of the water and into the air to any extent? How much ozone is liberated per hour (or min) of use? Would be great to know the answer to these questions before buying! Would give it 5 stars if these concerns can be addressed, and if the mechanical issues cited by other reviewers can be fixed.Customer Review: How safe are green cleaning products????
Summary: 5 Stars
I've been lotusing my house and food for well over two years now and am amazed at how attached I am to it. We all have countless appliances around the house and they all seem to end up on a shelf somewhere after a while but if my lotus were to stop working I think my life would stop...what would I use to clean and how would I eat my produce if I can't lotus it?!?! Even my plants crave lotus water!! I have gradually worked myself off of every single cleaner in my home and am proud to say that all I need is my lotus. This is the best, one product to do everything. How did we ever end up in a world where we were buying a special cleaner for every single application around the house? All I can say is that those other companies have great marketing people, especially in light of the fact that they have found an ingenious way to mislead us of what they are really made of. Green cleaners promise that they contain natural (instead of synthetic) agents, break down quickly in the environment, or pose less of a toxic threat to humans and ecosystems. But just because the ingredients in green cleaners are plant-based or natural doesn't necessarily mean they're safe. The market for green cleaners is largely unregulated -- which means consumers still must be wary of what's in the bottle. Even cleaning products labeled "natural" may contain some fraction of synthetic chemicals. Or they may contain natural ingredients consumers would rather avoid, such as petroleum distillates, some of which can cause cancer. And just because a cleaning product is biodegradable and made from plant-based sources doesn't mean that it is without potential adverse effects on health. Plant-based ingredients included in some green cleaners include limonene (a citrus-based oil), pine oil, and the foaming agent coconut diethanolamide -- all of which can cause allergic dermatitis. And a recent study of natural and nontoxic consumer products found the suspected cancer-causing chemical 1,4-dioxane in roughly half of 100 tested products. Notice too that all these green cleaners we are talking about are just that, cleaners. Read the manufacturers websites and they all have a goal of passing the EPA protocol so that they can call themselves a sanitizer, but they can't with their current formulations. The lotus passes these test, just read the results on the company website and they are able to sanitize your produce AND surfaces in your home, all while only using water and oxygen, how much greener can you get!!! No wonder why this product was named one of Time Magazines Best Inventions and that the founder was named Innovator of the Year by the Government of Ontario!! Kudos to you and the whole lotus team at Tersano!!!
Customer Review: I LOOOOOOOOOVE MY LOTUS
Summary: 5 Stars
I broke out the Lotus. I LOVE it! First of all, it works perfectly. No functioning problems whatsoever.
I used it on stains on the carpet and it got up stains that many different stain removers have failed to do. So its worth it for that alone. I went through 6 bottles just on the carpets.
At night I got out my black light research box and found my handy little UVA. Turned out the lights in my guest bathroom. My father-in-law (87) has been over a lot and he starts peeing when he opens the door. It was disgusting. My wife started screaming. The floor. The walls. All over the toilet. Almost all of the illuminations was bacteria. There are bathroom products that illuminate under UVA but they are speckles and look different - obviously not smeary baterial infestations. So we left the lights out and got the UVA and hit the slime with the LOTUS and zap!!!! almost all were gone in a nano. It was amazing. My wife sighed "Thank God" like we were going to have to move or something.
From there I went over the kitchen (not as gross but bad) and the other bathrooms. I went through (I know you will think I am lying by I'm not) 15 more bottles. Door handles, cabinents. Windowes. Walls! It is really disturbing what is alive in your house!
You should all go out and buy a UVA lamp and a lotus. You can go into your bathroom and you won't believe it. You'll totally freak out. As you use the LOTUS you will see the bateria dying and how fast and easy it is too clean a toilet in 10 seconds. With the UVA you can see your target! I called my compulsive mother and sister in law and both want one. We spent 2 hours cleaning just our bathrooms and the kitchen. Its fun cleaning with the lights out. And the LOTUS is so great because you just blast it and you don't care about getting the spray all over.
I absolutely love it!!! I think it is a real winner! If you do a TV thing this would sell it big time.
A spray bottle version only for $100 would be awesome. The bowl is great, but its the bottle that sells the thing and for $100 it would pay for itself in 2 to 3 months.
Congratulations! A total winner!
Way to go!

Customer Review: I LOVE this product and the company who makes it!!!
Summary: 5 Stars
I have had my Lotus Sanitizing System for a little less than a week now and I love it!!!
I am a cancer patient, recently diagnosed, and also a vegan who eats a great deal of fresh vegetables and fruit. I juice approximately 50 lbs. of carrots per week just for starters. I will be starting chemotherapy this week and the doctors have all emphatically told me that I cannot eat fresh fruits and vegetables unless they can be peeled, but generally not to eat them at all, because of potential bacteria that can lead to infection in chemo patients who have lower immune system functioning. That was shocking to me because those are the foods that we are told are the healthiest for us. I looked around on the web to find out how to wash my produce and quite readily came across the Lotus Sanitizer. Why the physicians don't know about this I'll never know!
I am also a single parent who works the equivalent of 2 full-time jobs, doing low-paid work (teaching and caring for children) so the medical expenses that I currently have, even with self-purchased insurance, are insurmountable. The Tersano Company most graciously donated their Lotus Santizer to me, and had it shipped overnight so that I could have it before I started the chemo treatments. They have been the kindest, most helpful folks that I could ever imagine and I am deeply grateful to them!!!
I have been using the Sanitizer daily since it arrived and it works beautifully! Although I buy organic produce, I have been peeling carrots before I juice them, and when I scrubbed the first batch to put in the sanitizer, I had to run it through twice, because I got the F1 code that says all of the bacteria is not gone (thank goodness for that feature!). However, I bought a stiffer brush to wash the carrots and since then I have only had to run them through the sanitizer once. I have sanitized about 7 very large bunches of spinch and 3 large heads of leaf lettuce and they came out great! Everything I have put through has done very well, with the exception of organic strawberries, and I read somewhere that the little seeds might be a problem, plus berries tend to be the most contaminated. I already can see that I will save a lot of money on produce, because I won't have to peel and throw away all of those peelings from 50 lbs. of carrots per week, plus all of the lettuce and spinach, etc. that goes bad in just a couple of days after I buy it, won't be the case since the Lotus helps produce last longer.
I've also been using the spray bottle attachment to clean my counters and wipe down the bathroom every day. I cannot say enough good things about this system. I wish I had known about it long before, because I could have used much less bleach and ammonia for cleaning purposes. I don't have the mop, but I am going to use the sanitized water today to clean my kitchen floor using the microfiber cloth that came with the system.
This is an awesome product, I am so glad I discovered it and I am so very grateful to this company for their kindness and helpfulness. I am recommending this to everyone I know!!! I am not affiliated with this company in any way, I had never even heard of them until I did a web search trying to find out how to effectively wash produce.
