NOT AS PICTURED: Replacement under sink water filter

I did not receive the Watts filter as shown in the picture. I have a universal filter. I would return it but I had to use it on the day I received it.

Pros
  • Free for educational purposes
Cons
  • Embarrassing

Revainrating 4 out of 5

The price for this water filter is outrageous. I .

The price of this water filter is prohibitive. I would never install a GE refrigerator again because of the extremely expensive water filters.

Pros
  • Acceptable
Cons
  • There are nuances

connected within 1 month. maybe ours.

Connected in 1 month. although maybe it was our own fault. It also fits #8 but the box says #6. I would order again but found a local product at an RV store for $1 more. so whatever.

Pros
  • Nice
Cons
  • Good but not great

Not what I expected

Not quite what I expected. For the price I'll shop around and find one that gives me a little more wit. It's pretty much only for city water, most places we go have wells, chlorine isn't a big problem. I'll just use the old built in with it until I replace it.

Pros
  • I'm holding my fists
Cons
  • Hard to say

Restricts water flow, good for filtering and softening water

Brand new and installed in a 'whole house' filter. Killed our water flow to the point where you could only use one faucet at a time. The toilets were not sufficiently filled. The description doesn't say how many microns it is, so it's impossible to tell if I made it too restrictive. I will not buy again.

Pros
  • There's something to it
Cons
  • Minor issues

I used one of these when traveling last year.

I used one of these in a caravan last year and it seemed to work fine. My wife is skeptical about her drinking water so we bring it in separate jugs but for brushing, brushing teeth and other uses of water on wheels we have had no reason to complain about our water with these filters.

Pros
  • Good
Cons
  • Old model

Prevents water flow, fits under sink water filter

Pros
  • Tools and household items
Cons
  • I don't remember but there was something

Great option for OEM filters

Great replacement for WaterPur CCL-10-C filters. I'll see how the filter holds up, but it's identical to the OEM filter I replaced. Our drill rig is permanently parked and there is dissolved iron in the water supply with smell and taste. A year ago we replaced the OEM filter with another OEM filter. While the filter appeared clean (no excessive discoloration), the bad taste and smell returned on our recent visits. I took a chance buying this filter rather than going back to the OEM but it fit…

Pros
  • Replacement Water Filter
Cons
  • I will add later
