We use the Aquasana filter on our kitchen sink for drinking water. Much more convenient than a pitcher filter. However, our main concern is great tasting water and we still do not like the taste of the water after it has been filtered so we are a little disappointed.
Cloudiness in drinking water is gone, along with chlorine (swimming pool) smell. Not yet drinking 8 glasses of water / day, but getting much closer now that our water is palatable!
I have not had the unit that long; so, I don't know what next month will bring, but for now, I am very pleased with the unit. The tap water being filtered through the unit is as good,or better, than the water we were buying in jugs at the office. My only complaint, and it isn't a major complaint, is that the water stream is not as strong as the water stream from the water dispenser we were renting, and that rental unit did not produce a significant water steam compared to water from a sink faucet. The difference between the rental unit and this one is not significant, but I can see where someone that goes from running tap water to this water filter may think it takes forever to fill a glass. I'm just hoping it continues to operate satisfactorily as many of the reviews have me concerned. I did opt for the lifetime protection/guarantee - forget what it's called. Based on the reviews, I feel I am covered should the filter stop working. Plus, it is a good value and insures the equipment will be fixed/replaced as long as you stay with the program, should something go wrong with the water filter equipment. Based on the price of other water filters/purifiers out there, this is an excellent value.
Pros: Unit Works Well, Was Easy To Assemble, Water tastes great
For the most part, I use the aquasana for drinking water and to make my coffee, ice tea, etc. I've tried several other water filtration systems, but gave up on them. I finally decided to try aquasana before I gave up. I am so glad I did. I just love it, except the water comes out slowly and it drips a little by the faucet only when it's turned on. To me, the pros definitely outweigh the cons. The water tastes great, the appearance isn't bad, and it's easy to install.
Pros: Easy To Use And Install, Good Capacity, Slim Design, Unique Design
