Gravity filtration · Matt cream finish
The Mini Star matt cream combines the most compact format in the range with a soft, light finish. It is sized for the daily needs of one person or a two-person household.
With no mains connection or electricity, it filters tap water by gravity through the two supplied Ultimate Star Filter® elements.
One technology for all three finishes
The Mini Star matt cream uses exactly the same Ultimate Star Filter® elements as the stainless-steel and matt black versions, as well as the Big Star and Super Star models.

Replacement filter cost
The pair of Ultimate Star Filter® elements represents a nominal capacity of around 6,000 litres, or an indicative service life of approximately two years.

Documented performance
The filters have been tested by independent ISO/IEC 17025-accredited laboratories, including for PFAS, pesticides, heavy metals, pharmaceutical residues and microplastics.
The published analyses also cover TFA, chlordecone and perchlorates. The materials used comply with European REACH and RoHS requirements.

Choose the right size
At 19 cm in diameter and with an empty weight of 1.7 kg, the Mini Star fits easily into a small kitchen. When transported empty, it is also suitable for a holiday home, a weekend away or a motorhome.
If you regularly serve more people or want a larger reserve, the Big Star 8.5 L and Super Star 12.3 L reduce the frequency of refilling and can hold up to four filter elements.
Matt cream finish
The AISI 304 stainless-steel chambers have a matt cream finish with a light, low-reflection appearance. This version works particularly well with pale woods, mineral shades and bright interiors.
The stainless-steel and matt black Mini Star models have the same capacity, dimensions and filtration technology. Only the appearance, the system price and the price of matching accessories may vary depending on the finish.
Ready for setup
Place the Mini Star on a flat, stable surface strong enough to support it. Allow sufficient clearance above the system so that the upper chamber can be removed and filled easily.
Follow the priming steps for both filter elements, then rinse and commission the system in accordance with the instructions.
Fill the upper chamber when the lower chamber is empty to prevent overflowing.
Ideally, consume filtered water within 24 hours and no later than 48 hours.
Clean the chambers, tap and filter elements regularly in accordance with Star Water Filter® recommendations.
The pair has a nominal capacity of approximately 6,000 L, representing around two years of use depending on the volume filtered and conditions of use.
