What Jonathan decided

Kirkland = winner (price); Laurel Ridge = loser

Kirkland Purified

Kirkland won on price against Laurel Ridge, which is the Costco way. It later finished last in a five-water round won by Penta, behind GNC, Big Chill, and San Benedetto. Price is not everything.

About Kirkland Purified

Costco's Kirkland Signature Purified Water is bottled by Niagara Bottling, the largest family-owned bottled-water company in the US, under a contract going back to the 1990s. It is purified by reverse osmosis with food-grade minerals added back for taste and no fluoride added. It is legendary for value: 80-packs of 8 oz bottles for under $24. The most common complaint is the very thin plastic bottle.

Laurel Ridge Mountain Spring

Kirkland took this one, and the call was mostly about price. Nothing wrong with the Laurel Ridge itself, it just lost the value round.

About Laurel Ridge Mountain Spring

No reliable information turned up for a brand under this exact name. It appears to be a small regional Appalachian spring water brand, and the closest real-world match is Laurel Mountain Natural Spring Water of Chattanooga, Tennessee, sold through the Chattanooga Coca-Cola bottling company in 5-gallon home and office delivery. Take that match with a grain of salt.
