I've had several Aquasana filters over the years and I like this one because you don't get dribble after every use like you used to. For some reason they changed the direction to turn it on and off so that takes some getting used to, but overall it's a solid product. I haven't ever tested my water before and after so I don't know for sure what contaminants it actually takes out, but it does make our water taste better and is great for cooking. The delivery service helps us keep on top of the replacements.
Pros: Clean taste, Durable, Easy to clean, Easy to install, Long lasting filter
I really love this system! I have to admit, I was hesitant but after I tasted the filtered water, I was so happy! I already had the plugin system that I put on top of my counter! This is so much better and convenient! Thank you for your persistent emails, I kept putting it off! Finally I purchased it and wondered how I was gonna put it in. But it was so simple. I'm a senior and not mechanical at all. It was done in 1 hour flat! So releeved.
I installed the filters in my basement directly below the kitchen sink and ran plastic tubing up to new faucet on sink. Easier to get to the three filters to replace and didn't have to squeeze into opening under sink to make connections. Liked it so well I ordered one for my Daughter and when I get it I will install it in her basement like I did with mine. You have to go out and buy longer roll of tubing but the cost is cheap.

This system was part of a kitchen upgrade I did myself. As a "weekend warrior" plumber I found it easy to deal with. I'd never worked with the push-in fittings before, I'm an old "solder guy," but once I learned the basics it was very easy. You really need to understand how far you need to push the tubing into the fittings, its not obvious if you've never done it, but it works perfectly when done right. The flow is slow, that's probably necessary in a filter system without a reservoir tank, but if you just give it time, fill up a pitcher when you'll need more water fast, its really not a big issue. This is a brand new install so I can't comment on filter life at this point. We're enjoying the new system so far.
