Fast, convenient, sleek. Best option out there, but some things to watch out for.
ANOTHER UPDATE AFTER A FEW YEARS OF OWNERSHIP: After 5 different filter changes and several years of ownership, we noticed that the faucet dribbles and drips for a while (30+ seconds) after you turn off the pump. Not the end of the world, and still a good product, but slightly annoying. UPDATES AFTER SIX MONTHS OF OWNERSHIP: This filter continues to be awesome, and has all signs of holding up for long term use. It is convenient to refill and to use, easy to maintain, and the quality of the filtration is amazing for an over the counter mini appliance. My one complaint is that the magnetic lid covering the filter itself can loosen up and rattle when the water is dispensing, which makes a louder sound. It isn't bad enough for me to consider it a bad product, but just something to be aware of. Otherwise, fantastic filter and strongly recommended!! I used brita filters for the longest time but they tend to get gross with still water sitting in them, take forever to filter, and also do not necessarily do a great job filtering stuff out. I originally wanted to install an under sink filter, but that wasn't allowed in my rented apartment. This seemed like a good compromise, with a heavy duty aquasana filter and an electric pump. It works great - just fill the tank and hit the button, and clean water flows out on demand at a high rate (very high if you compare it with brita / gravity filters). The water tastes great and is available immediately. So far, we've had no issues with this machine. It does exactly what you would hope it would do, is well-designed, and is effectively without being obtrusive or looking too industrial / unfinished on a countertop. Read more
