Clearly Filtered re-graded; Earth Mama's owner corrected

Clearly Filtered moves to acceptable: its certification covers chlorine, taste and odor, and lead-free materials, not lead reduction. Earth Mama's profile now names Eleeo as the brand's owner.

Two profile corrections.

Clearly Filtered is now graded acceptable rather than recommended. The change is about scope, not about anything new found in the product: the pitcher's NSF/ANSI listings are 42 (chlorine, taste and odor) and 372 (lead-free materials), and neither is a lead-reduction claim. Under our rules a certification carries the top grade only when it says what is in, or comes out of, the product you are buying. The home water filter guide makes the same point.

Earth Mama Organics now names Eleeo as the brand's owner in the "about the company" panel. The earlier panel described the brand as independent; the trademark register names an Eleeo entity as the owner.
