When I saw this product at Revain I ordered it.

When I saw this product on Revain I immediately ordered it. I don't think it came with instructions on how to prepare the filter so I used the Britas procedure. The product has worked well so far, as has Brita. What I found attractive was the reusable media holder. It will be a lot less wasteful. Update 02/27/2017: I used my original filter for many liters of water. Like the original OEM filter, it makes my well water taste great. We have a lot of iron in our water and the iron taste disappears

Pros
  • Save cartridge, replace cap
Cons
  • Not as thick as other picks

Easy to replace filter elements

I like the concept. I like the filter element wrapped around absorbent materials. The filter does a good job of removing odors and flavors from the water. What I don't like is having to disassemble the filter element to get it out of the reusable "capsule". The filter element fits very tightly to the container so that no water runs past it. However, this seal is a problem when changing the filter. The filter element has a pull tab to remove it. That's not enough, at least when the element is…

Pros
  • CONTENTS: 1 Genius transparent refillable cartridge and 1 replacement filter unit. The filter capsule filters 40 gallons of water, which is equivalent to 300 (16.9 oz) containers of bottled water. Certified by the Water Quality Association. Made from BPA free materials.
Cons
  • Long wait

O-ring missing (block may be replaced)

Bought two blocks for my two pots. One was fine but the other was missing the rubber o-ring. I will contact Clear Genius for a replacement. The initial two star rating will change once I replace another unit and it works and I get a chance to rate how well they work. Otherwise good concept - it always bothered me that I threw away the plastic housing when only the filter inside had to be replaced. Update: Clear Genius contacted via phone and email. Both have been answered. They sent me a…

Pros
  • Save cartridge, replace block
Cons
  • Not bad but...

Great and well thought out product!

Update: It turned out that the problem was in the Brita pot itself. It had a defect where the filter was installed, which meant it could not be installed correctly. I truly believe that if my pitcher wasn't defective it would work great with the Clear Genius filter. Original: I originally bought this as a replacement for the Brita 6 cup pitcher, thinking it would work, but it was too big. However when I tried to return it the company instead sent me a free jug which then knew it would work with

Pros
  • Products ordered only from the Amazon Clear Genius Store are guaranteed to work with the Brita, Clear Genius and Pur water filter systems. It turned out that products ordered from other suppliers do not fit all Pur pots.
Cons
  • Very expensive
