Bought this for my long-term tenant, who has little counter space. She had been using a Brita pitcher, but each year I try to give her something to improve her living conditions. And this Aquasana was a good fit for her. I have one in my own house, so knew it would be a great gift.
Pros: No odor, Clean taste, Long lasting filter, Durable, Nice faucet
Did a bunch of research and found Aquasana was the (I believe) only water filter independently tested and verified to do what it claimed. Installation was a cinch! No leakage at all. The flow is reasonable, it takes a little time but isn't a dribble. Our water tastes great now. And I feel great knowing it is clean.
Pros: Clean taste, Good Water Flow, Easy to install
The installation was very easy. I attached the Claryum® 2-Stage filter system to a length of 1x6 and mounted angle brackets on each side of the filter inlet and outlet sides. The brackets keep the poly lines straight and relieve stress on the connections. Have a total of 7 connections and have not had any problem with leaks. The key to success is proper tightening of the compression fittings and pushing the lines all the way into the inlet and outlet connections of the filter housing. Very pleased with the taste of the filtered water. I have city water and it has a strong taste and odor of chlorine. I filled a couple of glasses, one of tap water and one of filtered water. Wow, what a difference. No more chlorine. Tastes as good or better than the bottled spring water I was buying. I like the fact that we can now drink the city water without fear of any contaminants it may include.
Pros: No odor, Clean taste, Good Water Flow, Nice faucet, Easy to install
Our city water tastes like a pool. Lots of low level contaminants that don't technically exceed EPA regulations created over 50 yrs ago. Using these our water finally tastes like nothing... Which is was better than thinking you're drinking pool water!! Glad to know we're not being exposed to pesticides, pharmaceuticals, etc. Easy to install yourself. Easy to replace filters. Great system.
