 Excellent - But NOT fool proof August 27, 2007

I have been using these for about 8 years now and moved to the 3 stage when they came out. I use them primarily for drinking water and cooking. They typically last about 3 months for me. I go through a LOT of drinking water and probably less than average for cooking.
Based on using them on two different water systems, I also believe the quality of the water going in makes a huge difference in the life of the filter... but then that really is just common sense isn't it? For instance, using it the week after a city wide fire hydrant flushing will use one up very quickly. I can't speak to what that means to anyone else, but it tells me it is WORKING!
As another reviewer mentioned... ONE HOT WATER EPISODE WILL KILL A FILTER! It is a shame it is this way, but I have on two occasions had someone turn on hot water and let it run through the filter for a while. The filter would stop flowing within a day after that. The instructions warn against this, but accidents happen.
On the other hand, I had one that would not flow at all right out of the box. I called the 800 number on the box, told them what happened and that I had put in a different filter, which worked, and then tried this one again... showing that I had done my due diligence, and I had a replacement in the mail within a week, no cost, without having to return the failed one.
Also, if you buy the 6 pack, they are under $10 each.
It absolutely DOES make the water taste and smell better than plain tap water.

Don't let the price scare you away (it's actually a good deal). My local water has a displeasing taste/smell & this filter takes that water & turns it into .. well .. great tasting water. This filter will work on any of PUR's faucet mounts.
This works great . My water tastes better. February 6, 2007

These have worked well for me. I have noticed, however, if I am not careful to point out to my friends or housemates not to run warm or hot water through them, that it significantly shortens the filters lifespan. Warm or hot water breaks down the charcoal or something.

Filter works fine enough I guess. But people who say it only last about 2 weeks are telling the truth. I was not happy with how fast it blinked yellow and then red. I expected like 4 times as long. I had a different type of filter, I cant remember the name, but it lasted like 4 - 6 months. It was the type that had a white line that slowly turned black. I'm gonna be going back to it. So If you got a lot of money this is great for you because it only last a couple of weeks.
