Amazon.com Product Description
The lotus system safely removes bacteria, viruses, and pesticides from food. | 
It also sanitizes children's toys, teethers, and pacifiers with ease. | 
Tap water treated with the lotus system cleans and sanitizes kitchens, bathrooms, and other high-risk surfaces and locations without harsh chemicals, fumes, or residue. | Live Chemical Free with the lotus Sanitizing System
Take a step towards healthier living! This amazing Sanitizing System from Tersano lets you turn on your faucet and treat your home to an effective sanitizer that safely wipes out germs, odors, stains, mold, mildew and pesticides -- all without chemicals. When you use lotus, you turn ordinary tap water into the world's most powerful sanitizer in about two minutes, for a fraction of a penny. Studies have shown that ozone is 50-percent more powerful and more than 3,000 times faster acting on bacteria than chlorine -- at 100 times the strength. Water treated with this system will kill 99.9 percent of germs on any surface it contacts. Use the lotus to clean countertops, appliances, floors, high chairs and other baby items, upholstery, windows, cutting boards, and any surface that attracts mold or mildew. Even carpet and laundry stains -- including red wine and pet stains -- are easy to remove, with no harsh fumes or residue. Lotus also eliminates germs and pesticides from your food. It even extends the shelf life of fruit and produce up to four times longer than if they've been rinsed with tap water. 
The lotus system can even be used to freshen and deodorize pet areas, or other potentially smelly places. | How It Works
The system has two main purposes: (1). to disinfect surfaces and (2). to remove pesticides and kill germs on food. It does this using ordinary tap water. The lotus patented Oxyshield technology infuses cold tap water with an extra oxygen atom, creating a natural sanitizer. By passing air through 4,500 volts of electricity, the lotus system splits oxygen molecules into atoms and forces this extra atom to combine and form super-oxygen, or ozone. The third oxygen atom becomes the sanitizing agent, a natural oxidant -- which kills bacteria and viruses, and neutralizes pesticides. Using the lotus spray bottle, it takes about two to three minutes to turn tap water into antibacterial lotus water with 100-percent potential (this is indicated on the unit); and then it remains fully effective for about 15 minutes. After 15 minutes, the contents begin to revert to plain water. A countdown timer on the unit tells you when it's time to reload and recharge. Once the tap water reaches its fully transformed potential (in about five minutes, if you're using the bowl), maximum bacteria and pesticide reduction is achieved after two minutes of soaking. That same helpful countdown timer tells you when your food is completely sanitized and cleansed of pesticide residues. The lotus Sanitizing System was recognized as one of the Best Inventions of 2006 by Time Magazine. It was also recognized by Donny Deutsch as The Big Idea of the Month. Key Technical Specs:

 Rinsing My Dog September 1, 2010
J. Yeagley
My Chesapeake Bay Retriever has Addisons Disease and the steroids he takes cause him to have recurrent staph infections of the skin. The staph has become resistant to all but two oral anti-biotics. He is still on an oral anti-biotic at the time I am writing this. I had this Lotus sanitizer collecting dust in my basement and I thought maybe it would work on it. I contacted the company and they said it would indeed kill the staph on his skin. I have used it several times and each time he feels so squeaky clean...and he smells odorless. I think his improvement is more rapid with the addition of the O3 water and when I finish giving him the oral anti-biotic I will continue to use the O3 water.
This is how I bathe him:
Begin with the ozone water from the bowl attachment and try to work it down to the skin and let it sit until the unit beeps.
Then shampoo well with a chlorhexidine shampoo (this was prescribed by his vet for the purpose of killing staph and we have been using it for half a year already before begining the O3 water rinses), and let shampoo stay on him 10 minutes.
Rinse the shampoo off with regular water from a hose with a spray nozzle (meanwhile I make a fresh bowl of the O3 water).
When the shampoo is off and the O3 water is ready, give him one final rinse with the O3 water and keep a hand on him so he doesn't shake for a few minutes.
On the days he doesn't get a bath I hit the staph-prone areas with O3 water from the spray bottle attachment.
He seems a little better. I'm going to keep using this O3 water on him. I don't think the staph can become resistant to this water the same way it does to drugs, and I doubt O3 water can hurt the liver or make him throw up or have diarhea or other anti-biotic problems... but I'm not a veterinarian. I showed this to his veterinary dermatologist specialist and she had never seen one of them but was intrigued by it. She thought I might as well use it.
If you read this review and you have a dog with skin issues and try it out, please leave a comment and over time we'll create a compendium of dog skin results here on Amazon. I have been thinking how nice this product might be for animal shelters to use.
Have you read all the negative reviews? I still love it, and this is why: August 19, 2010

Dr. Mercola recommended this system on his website. I took that at face value and purchased it once we were Stateside this year. We now live in the Middle East and purchasing organics is nearly an obsolete option (we aren't going to pay $7 per pound of grapes or $4 each apple- a majority of our food consumption is produce), so I had been praying about this issue. I could tell that, no matter how much I washed my produce, even with Thieves soap, that it just wasn't the healthiest, and I've looked into the teaspoon of bleach option and disliked that option after my research. Once we got back to the M.E. with our system, and I used it, it kept making it to between 97% and 99%, and giving me an F1 error code. So, I dug into more researching. It took hours to read through ALL of the 1 and 2 product ratings and responses here on Amazon. I became worried on one hand that this machine wouldn't work well, but, on the other hand, I found some good advice and counter-arguments from other satisfied users. I both implemented those suggestions and called Tosano to get some feedback.
Here was the pertinent feedback:
1. Your water must be super dirty if the sanitizer won't finish a cycle.
2. F1 error code means the system is working. There is a reason this error code is given, and it's a safe guard.
3. The system doesn't work well with items containing seeds, lots of dirt or heavy wax because they tend to get trapped in the little spinning mechanism.
4. Tosano recommended using just the spray bottle and a little white vinegar to see if it would cycle my water. It did.
Here's what I've discovered:
1. My municipal water in Bahrain is probably highly contaminated. We do not drink this water, but it doesn't work well in this sanitizing system either. The system is not intended to purify water, it is meant to use "good enough" water (which all municipal water supplies are supposed to be, but each area has different people tending to their water, and some may not be doing a good job of making sure your water is clean) to sanitize food. When I used filtered water or bottled water, the system worked. I'm not all bent out of shape on this matter, as others have gotten. I bought this to be a food sanitizer, and am grateful that it works as such! We plan to get a Berkey and use that to purify our water, and then be available to use for this system. We already spend about $800/ year on bottled water for drinking alone, so this will be a well-worthwhile investment for us anyhow!
2. Berry seeds did get trapped in the little spinning mechanism, making it unable to function. How can people get upset about that? Perhaps they can make a bit of a mesh filter for another model one day that will alleviate this issue. However, until then, I simply run a bowl full of water on the system, and put berries, lettuce, etc. in a separate bowl. When the water is 100%, I pour that over my pre-rinsed berries or lettuce and let it have a good soak. Voila- clean, fresh and delicious, and no F1 error.!
3. If your system is not functioning properly, there's a man named Steve who commented on almost every 1- and 2- rating who REALLY wants you to call customer service. He'll even take your calls personally. I think he's part owner and developer in this company and has a passion for what he's doing. That passion may rub you the wrong way when you're reading through his comments, however, I'm thankful that he's involved in developing and constantly improving this system.
4. If the system gives you an F1 error code, then there's a reason. Figure it out. The machine is worth it, and very useful!
Here's what I LOVE:
1. The taste, look, smell and of purely, chemical-free cleaned produce! It's outstanding! I would even use this in the States for the produce I got at organic co-ops, for sure. It REALLY cleans and even seems to revive my produce, and it's delicious. Some say it gives a longer shelf life, but we eat our produce quickly. If it hasn't been grown in your own garden, then it's already been off the tree/ vine/ bush/ etc. for a while. Eat your produce quickly, and eat lots of it! ;~D
2. We had carpet cleaners come last week. After they left, a residual stain arose on one spot that they cleaned. That happens, but this was unsightly. It was about 2 x 4 feet in size in my bedroom, and I know it wasn't caused by our family. Perhaps previous tenants? Anyhow, I got a spray bottle of this ozonated water, and figured I'd try it out. I couldn't believe it when the stain disappeared as I sprayed it! I have used it on other stains as well with excellent results. Sometimes it took 2 applications, but I didn't rub or blot or anything- just sprayed, and it's gone. These were all old stains. If I had a new stain, I'd follow the manufacturer's suggestions fully with the blotting, etc. I use Oxy Clean on my children's clothes, and plan to see if this water will have a similar stain-treating effect. That would save me TONS of money (and luggage space, as I buy in bulk when in the States)!
3. There was some uncertain odor in my van. I sprayed the entire van and the odor disappeared.
4. Using the micro fiber cleaning clothes provided, and the spray bottle, I cleaned: windows, sinks, door handles, grease from my stove, etc. I loved how wiping my faucets off left them shiny. They looked brand new! I don't get that using a sponge, chemicals and a regular towel.
5. I plan to use this system for meats as well! I did not even know it could be used that way when I bought it. Awesome!
I would highly recommend this item, as I've found it to be very helpful and I'm thankful for what it is. However, don't go into it thinking that if it doesn't function perfectly, it's a piece of junk. It may not like your yucky water (we never drank American tap water). It won't like seeds or dirt particles. You should pre-rinse produce that grows close to the ground, very well. This machine is not to rinse and clean your veggies, it is to sanitize them, and it won't function properly if debris gets caught in the system. So, buy it to be a food and household sanitizer. You're the dirt rinser. Also keep in mind that produce may be dirtier than meets the eye. There's lots of hidden dirt in lettuce, spinach broccoli, etc. You'll have to rinse these veggies. It may not like highly waxed produce, some say. Where we get ours from, there isn't much wax, but I did see wax loosening from a lightly waxed apple. I could see that lots of wax would clog the system, so be careful.
This item may not last forever. It's built to last "5-10 years," but comes with a solid 1-year warranty. I would recommend you not to be impatient when dealing with customer service at Torsano. It may be frustrating to get error codes, but there's probably a reason for them besides a defective machine. Work through those issues and get it to work for you. I have seen very satisfactory results, which fall in line with the manufacturer's claims, and those things are well worth the $150 spent, even if it only last 6-12 months! Great investment for healthy results. I hope my review helps you to make an informed decision with reasonable expectations.
 Safe for entire family. June 24, 2010

If you love kitchen gadgets, you must check out Kitchen Contraptions, one of the best blogs on the subject because they actually use all the products before reviewing. I know because the couple who runs it are good friends of mine! Their kitchen is insane with the amount of gadgets they have. But the one thing I zoned in on is this Tersano lotus LBU100 Sanitizing System for $97.51. It sanitizes using an ozone method without the use of chemicals
so you can clean things like fresh fruit. But the amazing part is the antibacterial lotus water that the machine makes out of regular tap water. It is good for 15 minutes before it reverts back to tap water. But while active, it is 3,000 times more powerful than bleach without the harsh toxins and smell. This lotus water kills 99.9% of bacteria and germs, including mold and mildew. Green hotels are using this same technology to clean their rooms but their system is tens of thousands of dollars. Actually, just keeping all those harsh cleansers away from your tots is value enough.
