Bought new home and these filters were already installed. A few months later the beeper is going off and find out that its time to change the filters. You need to be careful replacing these to avoid damage, and crawling under the sink was a pain. Called customer service and they stayed with me the entire time and walked me thru the process and even helped fix some errors in the install. We enjoy having the filtered water available as local water is not the best. I singed up for the automatic delivery at a good savings. Now that Ive done this once the next time should be easy. Thanks for all the assistance.
I don't buy in to rating products often - or removing a star for minor inconveniences.
Though this product works great there are some frustrations on the manufacturer's website that could be solved to make this even better. The colour coding makes no sense. The product description vs the physical filter vs the colours on the actual sumps & hanging bracket aren't consistent and is frustrating. The size of the filters isn't easy to see either. There's no reason for this to be so confusing and obfuscated. A simpler design on the website and a CLEAR product description - along with some modern niceties such as "This doesn't match your previous orders, do you wish to continue?" prompting - would go a long way in making this a better overall experience. Thanks for making a product without involving the slave labour of many other overseas products of this genre.
Pros: Easy to clean, No odor, Clean taste, Long lasting filter, Good Water Flow, Durable, Nice faucet, Easy to install
The filters came with the house when I bought it. I’m glad we have it but wish it filtered even more, as we still have a ton of minerals that get through and make for cloudy water.
Pros: No odor, Long lasting filter, Easy to install
Cons: Slow pour, Cloudy Water
I would recommend this to a friend!

Hello,
Thank you for your review. The AQ-5300 has been tested and certified to NSF/ANSI Standards 42, 53 (includes P473), and 401 for the reduction of over 97% of chlorine and chloramines, 99% of lead, and 96% of PFOA/PFOS.
In addition, the filtration technology retains naturally occurring beneficial minerals found in water like calcium, potassium, and magnesium. If you have higher-than-average levels of calcium in your water, it will become visible.
We have had good success replacing filters in the past. My latest replacements have caused a slow leak which I can not remedy. The leak appears to be coming from under the large housing on top of the unit, on the left side of the Black pre-filter. I have checked all 'O'-rings...they appear OK. I have not over-tightened any fittings. Can you supply replacement 'O'-rings?
Pros: Clean taste, Nice faucet
Cons: Difficult to install
