(More customer reviews)I have used Teledyne Water Pik and Pur faucet-mounted filters in the past. This filter is easy to install, and has a sturdy frame that connects securely to the faucet without leaks. It is aesthetically pleasing, although I am sure that other users may have different color preferences (another Dupont filter on the market offers different color cartridge covers in the same box). The electronic counter is unique, in that it displays gallons of water filtered, and doesn't just indicate when it's time to replace the filter. You have to be careful to connect the display module to the housing BEFORE you insert the water filter, otherwise it will not work correctly. If you unscrew the display after you have loaded the water filter cartridge, then you must remove the filter, screw on the display first, and then reinsert the water filter once again. The bottom line is that the water filter cartridge must be inserted after the display in order for the display to work properly. I also noticed that the counter actually measures the time the filter is in use, and indirectly calculates the gallons filtered by a predetermined formula. Therefore, if you have a low water pressure faucet like I do, the gallons that have been filtered will be overestimated. The display is not very clear if you are looking at it from an angle. The filtered water flows at a slow rate, but all filters have a slower filtered water rate, since the water must flow through the cartridge at a slow rate in order to have a good particle/chemical removal effect. The cartridge can be used to filter 200 gallons of water, and not just 100, like other filters on the market. It is therefore more economical than the competitors. Of course I have not performed any water testing to confirm that the filter remains efficacious for all those 200 gallons. That's what the manufacturer claims. This is the only faucet-mounted filter on the market that is a 4-stage filter. It contains Microban, that supposedly prevents the accumulation of bacteria within the filter. If there is a feature I wish this system had, that would be an automatic switch back to unfiltered water - that would prevent using the filter with hot water, something that can happen accidentally and destroy the filter (hot water destroys all activated carbon filters). I think that there are Culligan filters that have that automatic switch. This system is definitely worth it.
