Water bottle straw filter. This is a clear after. Shower filter. I'm going to put that probably C tier. Pitcher filter.

I'm going to put this at a B tier as it's not going to do what people think it does. So, it's good for like general use. Uh bath ball filter. I'm going to put this in a D tier. Faucet mount, I'm going to do B tier.

Counter top filter, I'm going to put this as I'm going to put this as an S tier. I think this is a great option. Under sink filter, I'm going to put this as a A tier. Whole house RO, I'm going to put as bad as I want to do S tier or A tier. Great for removing everything, not great because you have waste water and there's a lot of components to it and it costs more in general.

Water filter whole house, I'm going to do S tier as a great option for most people. [Editorial note: The unsupported audience percentage is omitted.] Traditional water softener, B tier. Then we got under sink RO, this is going to be an S tier. Great option for an RO. Big blue whole house, I'm going to put this as a a B tier.

And the last one, I have no idea what this is. So, that's the end of the tier guide.
