The filter has been great with our hard water--it tastes much better than what comes out of the tap! Also very easy to install, and even to move to the other side of the sink when we decided we needed to do that.
THE FILTER FLOW IS VERY POOR COMPARED TO THE FIRST AQUASANA FILTER I HAD WHICH FAILED BECAUSE TWO O RINGS FAILED THAT WERE NEVER PROVIDED WITH A NEW SET OF FILTERS.
Pros: Clean taste
Cons: Slow pour
I would recommend this to a friend!

Hello,
Thank you for bringing this to our attention. We are sorry that your experience didn’t quite match your expectations. We certainly wish to help resolve this soon! Kindly proceed with the following troubleshoot steps:
Step 1: Turn off the main water supply underneath the sink. Step 2: Remove the sump from the manifold and reconnect. Step 3: Ensure that the connection points align correctly and turn the sump from the left to the right until it stops. Step 4: If the sump is not locked in the correct position, it can slow the flow of your system. This process should mitigate that issue. Step 5: Once re-threaded and re-attached, test by turning the water supply back on.
If further guidance is needed, we kindly ask you to contact us directly at 866-662-6885 Option 1, Monday thru Friday from 8 am-5:30 pm CST.
Unable to tighten the faucet fully, it always loosens, very slow pour and not a significant difference in taste as compared to tap water
Cons: Slow pour
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I like that this filter has tested to purify my water satisfactorily and it doesn’t take up too much space under my sink. My only complaint would be its a slow stream of water. Takes a while to fill a large glass and I drink a lot of water.
Pros: No odor, Clean taste, Long lasting filter, Nice faucet
Replaced a Brita tabletop "tank" filter with this Aquasana Clayrum system. Very happy to have transitioned to an under-sink unit. Very easy for a semi-talented "Joe Homeowner/Handyman DIY Guy" to install. (Some other reviews mentioned leaks. I can't see how that would happen if the installer had at least a VERY basic understanding of plumbing and took care during his work.)
Happy with the taste and feel good about the quality of water.
The flow rate is a bit slower than I would like, but we have adapted quickly and in the end decided that this unit takes a LOT less care and attention than the tabletop unit it replaced.
Highly recommended.
Pros: No odor, Clean taste, Nice faucet, Easy to install
