Great and easy filter

The filter is easy to install and works great! The filter status indicator didn't change initially, but while I was cleaning the 2 gallon filter it turned green and you're done!

Filter Size on Replacement Water Filters

I really needed a 51300C product which is very hard to find. This is a shortened version of the 51300C. The regular 51300C is over 12 inches long and oversized for some models. the "prod" version is about 9 inches.

Pros
  • Best in Niche
Cons
  • Upgradeable

Look for the sticker

Apparently there was a batch that didn't have a sticker (chip) that informed the well to reset the age of the filter. I received one of these and contacted the manufacturer and they sent me a new one within a day or two. Very happy with customer service!

These are not real Elkay filters!

They won't reset the replacement light filter as they don't have a chip on top that resets it. I called Elkay thinking there was something wrong with my fountain/bottle filler and they told me that Revain sells regular water filters with counterfeit labels!

Pros
  • Weight
Cons
  • No automatic

Doesn't matter! for replacement under sink water filter

My fountain was having trouble generating enough pressure to get the stream in easily. Well I called Elkay and they offered to buy me a new filter. I'm so ashamed I didn't do this sooner. After I replaced it, which took about 3 minutes including removing and reinstalling the panel, the difference was immediate and obvious.

Pros
  • Pretty packaging
Cons
  • Can't remember

Fake, not Elkay

Fake filters, apparently not Elkay. They don't have an RFID tag on the back so they can't contact the fountain. Your status indicator does not turn green even if you have changed the filter. According to Elkay tech support, the use of their numbers, logos, etc. is fake. While the filter works adequately to filter the water, which is its purpose, our building requires the status lights to remain green or employees will not be using the fountain. Elkay says Revain was aware of the issue but…

  • Weight

  • A few bits and pieces

One had bad sticker sensor

Bought three packs on March 19th. Return time expired, Amazon contacted Elkay. Elkay emailed me, I called 800. The problem is explained with a filter that does not reset the green LED, but immediately switches it to red. I was lucky that there were two filters left out of three packs. I tried the last filter, the LED turned green. After Elkay confirmed I had the blue and white sticker, they offered to ship a replacement free of charge. They only ask that the faulty one be sent back at their…

Pros
  • Several competitors
Cons
  • unreliable
