Time Water Filter Pitcher - Convenient and Effective White vs Sustainable Pitcher: which is safer?

Where these two actually differ

• We flag Activated carbon cartridge degradation and particle shedding, Bacterial growth in filter housing and stagnant water and Lack of third-party certification and transparency on the Aquaphor and not on the Soma.
• We flag Bacterial growth in filter housing, Activated carbon dust in water and Rubber seal degradation on the Soma and not on the Aquaphor.
• The Aquaphor is Plastic pitcher with activated carbon filter cartridge where the Soma is borosilicate glass pitcher, activated carbon filter cartridge, which is most of the difference in these two grades.
• These two are 5 points apart, close enough that price and fit should decide it rather than our grade.
