Good affordable filters

They're a lot cheaper than the Brita filters we've used before (and the hardware you attach to the faucet doesn't break like Brita's ). The result is excellent, the water is delicious. Just follow the instructions to let the water run first for 3 minutes and then for 3 seconds every time you turn it on. The first 3 minutes are for removing excess carbon (you will see black water). It takes (I think) three seconds to clear the plastic housing with the filter of water. If this is not done, it can

Pros
  • Don't waste too much time
Cons
  • I vaguely remember

Happy with InstaPure!

I had never seen an InstaPure faucet before we bought a home with the faucet already installed. We've been buying replacement filters for it for about 5 years and have had no problems. It does the job it was designed for just as well as any of the big brand filters we've used in the past. What we like is that it's small, it's easy to remove old filters and install new ones, and the clear plastic cover lets you see when the filter needs replacing. The only downside to the device is that the…

Pros
  • Easy to use
Cons
  • old

These are new updated filters

After contacting Insta Pure because I couldn't purchase an older version of the filter, they informed me that all of their filters had been updated to higher specs. They said the F2 was the old F5 and the new F5 was better than the old F7 and didn't know why the marketers decided to keep the lower numeric model number. I can say they have been updated! The old ones started losing chlorine and cloudy water after about 50-75 gallons, but that doesn't happen until towards the end of their…

Pros
  • Always liked
Cons
  • Security

.and i have been buying them everywhere i can find them for 10 years. They are affordable and do what they say. For me they usually last a lot longer than the 3 months as advertised; my current record is just under 7 months. I know because I write the date when I put it on the filter itself (as stated in one of the other reviews). I use them until the water I drink starts to taste like regular tap water. Not scientifically, I know, but that's a decent number for me. For me it tastes as good as…

Pros
  • finally bought
Cons
  • something is wrong

Great filter, does its job!

When we lived in Boston, Massachusetts, my family drank water straight from the kitchen faucet. However, in the summer we moved to another state and found that the water in the kitchen had an eggy kind of smell. The water is also very hard. I originally ordered a Culligan FM-15A Stage 3 faucet filter which seemed to work really well, but the flow was so poor it would literally take about 15 minutes to fill a standard pot (no kidding!). I returned the Culligan filter to Amazon and ordered the…

Pros
  • replacement water filter
Cons
  • boring packaging
