Water Filter Reviews

I purchased this unit and within two weeks the connection to the faucet started to leak.
Try one of the under the sink filters instead, they are more cost effective and convenient.

This seemed like a good idea since I always liked the Brita pitchers but found them to take too much space in the kitchen. However this is not worth the hassle and money. It takes a lot of tinkering with the washer/screw mount and placing the filter exactly in the holder to make a seal tight enough so water doesn't spurt out. And I can't get the indicator light to reset to green when I replaced the cartridge. (I tried everything the manual suggested - yes ... keep the instruction manual). Overall - very cheaply made. On the plus side, it does make the water taste a lot better and it doesn't take up space in the fridge or counters.

The filter worked ok the first few days of use. It definitely effected the water pressure, but not too terrible. After 2-3 days, the water slowed to a drip. Don't waste your money, it's definitely not worth it.

Living in an area where the city puts so much chlorine in the water that you have to practically buy body lotion in bulk makes a showerhead-mounted water filter a good idea. However, this one in particular sucks. Within the first week the cartridge inside swelled up and clogged from the use of hot water, and reduced the outflow of water to a mere drizzle. I have to routinely take the shower filter off, take the cartridge out and rinse it out with cool water every 3 days so it will work. And the unit is only a month old. Pathetic. It's less trouble just to return it and use more lotion.

This item will only work if you have plenty of room from the end of the shower arm to the wall. I have purchased and returned this item because the only way for it to go on properly would have required replacing and therefore lowering the shower arm.

For 12.99 you only get 2 filters and another handle (which you don't need). That's over a dollar a week to filter your water. Better off without.
