EHM VITA 7 Platinum - Advanced 7-Plate Alkaline Water Ionizer
EHM VITA 7 Platinum - Advanced 7-Plate Alkaline Water Ionizer
Couldn't load pickup availability
The 7-plate water ioniser Kiwis pick when they've priced up a Kangen. Same type of machine, platinum-titanium plates, seven water settings – for $1,299, with replacement filters at $93.99.
Fill the drink bottle before the gym. Top up after a morning in the garden. A cold glass when you get in from the paddock. Most owners tell us the same thing: the water tastes so good they simply drink more of it.
- 7 settings: 4 alkaline (about pH 8.5–11), purified, and 2 acidic (pH 3–5.5) for cleaning. Results vary with your tap water's minerals and flow.
- 7 platinum-titanium plates with ionic membranes.
- Built-in filtration plus a self-clean cycle to keep scale down.
- 3.8" touchscreen showing pH, ORP, flow and filter life, with voice prompts.
- Sits on the bench and connects to your tap with the included components – designed to fit any tap, no plumber needed.
Vita 7 vs Kangen – the honest comparison
No, it isn't a Kangen – Kangen is Enagic's brand name. Both are countertop electrolysis water ionisers with multiple pH settings and built-in filtration. The big difference is price: the Vita 7 is $1,299, Kangen machines cost several times that, and our replacement filters are $93.99. Read our full Vita 7 vs Kangen comparison.
What it costs to run
One filter lasts about 3,000 L or 6 months. It's the same EHM Vita 7 replacement filter we sell on our site, and swapping it is an easy two-step job.

This is a great product and has a huge amount of uses, the alkaline water options taste fantastic and keeps you wanting to drink more. It has a built in filter and is very easy to install.
We use the alkaline and acidic functions for cleaning vegetables and fruits, can use the highest acidic function for killing germs.
The mild acidic function is great for the skin and toner. There are so many uses here it really is a must have for the kitchen
Hi Raymond
Thank you so much for taking the time to share your feedback with us.
It is fantastic to hear how seamlessly you have integrated the ionizer into your daily household routine. Many people looking into a traditional Kangen water machine are delighted to discover how versatile a high-performance 7-plate system like this can be for the kitchen.
The micro-clustered alkaline water not only enhances taste and hydration to keep you drinking throughout the day, but having distinct pH levels on tap offers incredible flexibility. Using the strong acidic setting as a natural disinfectant and the mild acidic output as a daily skin toner provides a chemical-free way to clean both produce and personal care products. Pairing pure, ionized water with a grounded sleep system or conductive earthing mat is a wonderful way to support cellular hydration and optimal recovery.
We truly appreciate your support of Grounded Kiwi and hope you continue enjoying all the versatile uses for your home.
Warm regards,
– Blake
We are loving our alkaline water ionizer. Both of us have noticed a change in our gut health. My reflux problem seems to have disappeared. Early days so let’s hope it only gets better. We connected it to our existing water purifier tap which was easy to do.
Awesome! Alkaine water ca work wonders for gut health. Thank you so much for sharing your alkaline water experience Debbie. - Blake
So far we've had this machine and have been using it for the past 6 weeks and really enjoying how fresh the water has tasted. I will use it longer and send another review for another update. But long story short very happy so far and happy to have tried this machine out before purchasing those Kagen more expensive machines.
Awesome review Hemi, I really appreciate your words and I know others will love to read this to. Great to hear you are enjoying your water now. These are great machines indeed.
Cheers - Blake
I've had this machine for about a year
We moved 2 weeks ago and have been unable to find a fitting to fit the tap in the new house. Turns out it had extra connections in the box which we found....
But in that 2 weeks I've been developing more headaches again and finding it hard to stay hydrated.
Looking forward to good water again
Hi Jess, thank you for your support and for sharing your experience. We're glad to hear you're looking forward to enjoying good water again. If you need any assistance with fittings or setup, please don't hesitate to reach out. Wishing you the best!
My mum purchased this machine knowing the health benefits the water gives. Now I prefer to drink water out of this machine than drink tap water. The taste is pure and don’t taste the toxins that comes of normal tap water. It’s nice to know my body is getting the water it needs.
Thank you for sharing your experience with us! We're thrilled to hear that you and your mum are enjoying the health benefits of our water machine. We're glad to hear that you've noticed a difference in taste and that your body is getting the hydration it needs. We appreciate your support and hope you continue to enjoy the benefits of our pure water. Thank you again! - Blake
