Purchased due to PFAS readings from our municipal water supply. The certifications were important to me and I didn't trust filters that supposedly last years. 6 months seems right, and while it's a new household expense, it seems worth it after installation. The parts & instructions were well made & written. Based on another helpful review, I purchased 3 inexpensive extra parts that eliminated the white piece that connects directly to the water supply line since it seemed to improve durability and ensure good flow. I hope they might upgrade their parts package to do this for future customers. The filter is long, and the best way to install under my sink was horizontal, which made it harder to reach the furthest screws, but not impossible, and now replacement is that much easier. Upon first test, heard the water try and make its way through but there was almost no flow. Long story short, something made its way to the faucet head, which once I cleaned it out, the flow seemed almost (90% or more) like pre-install. (Sigh of relief). I also had to reseat the connectors to the filter head housing to ensure no leaking. I put a small container underneath just to be sure, but it's been dry since day one. Water tastes very good, and it feels good to have done the best we can to improve the quality / health of our drinking water. Update: wanted to say that the 7 months that it was left in, the water flowed well and tasted good consistently. When the flow started to get noticeably slower, I was surprised at how easy it was to just change out the filter with no leaks. I did my best to shake the retained water out before disposing since it was kind of heavy. Don't forget to let it run for ~15 minutes after installing.

This filter has excellent performance certifications and simple installation and maintenance. The flow rate is maybe 10-15% lower than without the filter, but we expected that trade off and are happy with it. You can find cheaper filters on Amazon, but if you want something you’ll be confident in I’d highly recommend this.

THIS ""IS"" the filter you want..!!! We have had our water tested by one of the best labs in the U.S. that charges THOUSANDS of dollars for the test for PFA's and PFOA's . The tests have been returned to us that every single item of any kind of compounds is NON DETECTABLE. Worth every dime...!

Installing this under-sink filter made a noticeable difference in how my tap water tastes and smells. Chlorine is basically gone, and the water has a clean, crisp taste that makes it more enjoyable to drink straight from the tap instead of relying on separate pitchers or bottled water. I also like knowing it handles more than just basic chlorine—things like lead and other contaminants—without needing a bulky multi-stage setup cluttering the cabinet. Setup was pretty straightforward for an under-sink system. The direct-connect design is convenient: you hook it into the cold-water line and it feeds the existing faucet instead of adding another separate spout. Once installed, water flow stayed strong enough for everyday use—filling pots, rinsing dishes, and cooking doesn’t feel painfully slow the way some filters do. The cartridge is simple to swap out when it’s time, and the footprint under the sink is compact enough that it doesn’t hog storage space. If there’s a trade-off, it’s that you do still feel some slight reduction in flow compared to totally unfiltered tap, and you have to remember to replace the cartridge on schedule to keep performance up. But for the improvement in taste and the extra peace of mind about what’s coming out of the faucet, it’s very reasonable. Overall, it’s a solid upgrade that makes everyday drinking and cooking water feel noticeably cleaner without turning the plumbing into a science project.

Easy to install and water tasted great. But like others have mentioned, the adapters fail quickly. About 2 weeks after a professional plumber installed the filter, we noticed a leak under the sink. The plumber came back and showed us where the cheap plastic adapter broke. Unfortunately, it is a non-standard adapter, so buying a metal fitting from the hardware store is not an option. I would not recommend.

Filter is working great. Relatively easy to install... Make sure to measure your under sink space before ordering. The unit is quite large but it can be mounted in a variety of ways. The connections are relatively easy although be sure to read the directions carefully. You'll need to press the flexible tubing in with some force to be sure it gets in as expected. If you follow the directions carefully you'll have no problems.

What a waste of time and money! I bought a new filter because I thought the previous owners of the house were using it for a long time and the filter was clogged. To my surprise, the new filter was better, but the cold water flow was 10 times less than the hot line. And after less than 3 months, the flow is ridiculous! We can use tempered water because the hot water pressure wins, and I ended up removing the system.
