My family uses this water filter everyday for drinking, cooking, coffee and even for filling our dogs' water bowl. Personally have used Brita, GE and Everpure systems in the past. This thing beats them all in taste and freshness. We fill and chill reusable plastic bottles and there's never any hint of plastic taste or stinky plumbing odor even when the bottles are left out and warm up a bit. Straight out of the faucet this water tastes really clean and refreshing. Water doesn't need to be super "cold" as with many low-end carbon filters. UV/ozone is definitely the way to go. Installation is easy for DIY types. A bit pricy up front for sure, but worth every penny you'll save on bottled water. Bought and installed one for my mother-in-law and she loves hers too. Absolutely maintenance free. Changing filters is a snap. BTW, it's not Aluminum as the description says. I checked with the company and it's all approved plastic for drinking water."..." Read more
