Tools and Hardware Reviews of Tersano lotus LRF4 Sanitizing System Replacement Booster Cartridges, 4-Pack
Customer Review: Works well for me
Summary: 5 Stars
I have been using the Tersano Lotus for a number of years and found that Amazon had a great price on these. When I first bought the machine, the cartridges did not seem to last as long. Recently I have found them to last longer. (I still live in the same dry house!) I don't know if they changed how they manufacture the cartridges but I have definitely noticed that they last longer. I keep mine in the machine all the time. I also find that Amazon has a better price on these.Customer Review: You need this to generate ozone
Summary: 5 Stars
I believe these cartridges contain a desiccant that removes humidity from the air. Regardless you will not be able to generate ozone without them. They simply pop-off and on your Tersano appliance.Customer Review: cartridges go bad while still in sealed packaging
Summary: 1 Stars
This is not a review of the basic Tersano Lotus machine. I own the Tersano Lotus Sanitizing base/bowl/bottle, and LOVE them. I do not love their replacement booster cartridges.
I have purchased several cartridge 4-pacs from Amazon, only to have them go bad within days or weeks of inserting them into the Lotus. (The crystal-colors change in the small view-window.) The last box of 4 cartridges had 2 of the four cartridges go bad while they were still in the unopened, sealed plastic-bags they were shipped in. I talked to Tersano about how fast the Lotus was going through cartridges, and they suggested I must live in a very moist location. (I live in San Diego, where we have had 'below normal' rainfall for most of the last 15 years...) NONE of the cartridges lasted 3 months, as other reviews reported. My machine counted easily up to 100 even after the cartridges had visually gone bad.
I still use the Lotus, but I have stopped buying the replacement cartridges. Customer-service at Tersano said the the machine worked fine without cartridges, they just improve performance by removing humidity.... My machine counts up to 100% without them, and without a problem. Tersano told me that as long as the machine counted up to 100, it was working, I see no reason to waste more money on cartridges that go bad before they can be used. Perhaps Tersano just needs to improve their air-tight (?) packaging.
If the fact that the Lotus counts up to 100 doesn't mean it is producing an effective level of sanitation-ozone, then all of the claims that are made about the machine's accuracy are in question. If the doesn't need the cartridges to work properly, why buy them?
My experience with Tersano's customer service has been outstanding. This product review is only concerned with the quality and possible uselessness of their replacement cartridges.
Customer Review: poor performance
Summary: 2 Stars
We bought the Tersano Sanitizing unit about a year ago. We buy a lot of fresh vegetables and wanted to be certain that we were getting our veggies clean. The unit hardly ever finishes sanitizing the water, it gets to 98% and then errors out. We thought maybe replacing the cartridge would solve the problem, but it did not. So we are left guessing. Does that mean that 98% of the water in the unit is sanitized? Or it was 98% of the way to being sanitized and then reverted. Is the water killing bacteria? We don't know. On the up-side, the water and the vegetables do smell very nice after sanitization, sort of like how the air smells after a hard rain and thunderstorm. Also, the produce does last longer in the fridge, so i assume it is working a little, but I'm left to guess.Customer Review: replacement cartridge
Summary: 4 Stars
You either need a replacement cartridge or not. There is really nothing to review about this product. We like using the lotus sanitizer for cleaning our produce. It really makes it last longer and stay fresher.
