Express Water Direct Water Filtration System – 3 Stage Direct Water Filter System with Chrome Faucet – Under Sink Water Filter – Sediment, Activated Carbon Block, and Granular Activated Carbon Filters

Our city water isn't all that bad but admittedly the treatment plant can't remove forever chemicals, pharmaceuticals or pesticides/herbicides. This works perfectly for my needs. I don't need an expencive full reverse osmosis system. Its NSF certifed. I don't notice less water flow. A dedicated faucet isn't neccasary. Easy install. Inexpencive. Lasts a good while 6-12 months. What else is there to say.

My 5 year old filters popped an oring so i threw them out and installed these. So far so good!

Living in NYC where water taste super mineral-ly and has all kind of salts and chlorine, I got tired of buying gallons of water. Came across this filter at a price one can't beat: it paid itself off in 3 months or less. Everything was included exept the drill bid to make the whole onto the counter top. 25 bucks that cost. But after that, it was an easy connection, the hose goes in tight and don't come out unless you pull the inset and the hose. After just 2 weeks I opened that filter to see what was inside, and found about 1 inch of sediments on the first cartage.

I have the Express Water reverse osmosis system under my sink and I unfortunately couldn't get that water to my refrigerator. I hung this system on the wall behind the fridge and feed this water to it instead of using the underwhelming and over priced filter that the fridge comes with.The result was surprising. I live in Chandler, AZ (Phoenix area) where the tap water is very acrid tasting and has lots of sediment in it. The water out of this system is totally drinkable to the point that I'm alternating between the RO water and this direct system. The ice comes out relatively clear (not quite RO ice clear, but surprisingly close) and does not leave any sediment in the glass as it melts.The big plus is my filter change will cost about $20 less every six months compared to buying a much much smaller filter that's supposed to be installed in the fridge. So my ROI will come in two and a half years. The bigger benefit is the water just tastes better.I do just wish this was offered without the faucet at a reduced cost.Also, mine came without the leak stop valve. I called Express Water and they quickly sent that part out.

We have city water and use the filters that you insert into the refrigerator. A relative was visiting, said our water tasted nasty, ordered and installed this filtration system. I am amazed at the difference! The water tastes like it’s straight from a fresh water spring.

Filter dis not last as stated and can't even get replacement filters

Easy to install, water tasted a little metallic at first but after about an hour it was tasting fine. Because we installed it at the main kitchen faucet, we used the filtered water for drinking, cooking, cleaning, washing our hands. This may have impacted the fact that the water started to taste like chlorine after about 2 weeks of use instead of the advertised 6 months. Flow rate was not impacted at all. We decided to return this filter and bought the 3 stage filter instead because it had a separate faucet. Hopefully that will last longer since we will only be using that for drinking water.

I'm 61 yrs old and I put it in very easy.
