Mineralizer for Gravity Feed Steam Iron

First time I ordered this demineralizer for my gravity iron. I usually get the one already made in a plastic tube ready to be connected. It can get expensive to replace but my concern was more the disposal of the plastic container. I emptied the older one and tested the filtering beads (bulk) of this bag instead. At first I had some leaking of water from the original plastic container, that was because it needed to be tighter. Afterwords the demineralizer beads worked perfectly. The filtering solution seems to last long. I iron a lot, on an average of 3 times a month, with iron on hot steam for hours. I would say 6 hours total. The steam is clean and the filtering compound seems to do a good job so far. One bag can fill 3 containers of the Sapporo demineralizer. Very cost effective overall and works well without leaving spots on sheets. The result is a professional press finish.

I've had this mineraliser for over a year now. I have only filled my filter once and have used my iron a decent amount. I run filtered water through just to avoid issues. I haven't seen any change to the colors and have had zero issues with my iron. I'd buy this again given the cost of non-refillable filters. Worth the time and effort to clean and fill the filter.

Arrived as displayed! Do not need to use it right away but I have it for when it is needed and now I have lots!!

Exactly what I needed for my Sapporo gravity feed steam iron.

I've been using a gravity feed iron for my work for years. Mineralizer is needed to remove the minerals from the water. This is a wonderful product, easy to use--just dump it in the cleaned jug for the iron that has been filled with clean water, hang the jug, and you're good to go. Do follow the manufacturer's directions for changing out the mineralizer. My iron gets a lot of use, so I always keep an extra packet on hand to change out about every six months or when needed.
