Brita Ultramax, Dispenser Water Filtration System 1 ea Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Throughout the years I have used and owned many different versions of the Brita Pitcher Water Dispenser. All of these filtered water containers have been great. The only complaint I have ever had with these filters is size. The Brita Ultramax Water Filter Dispenser was supposed to answer this problem. Unfortunately due to bad design, it introduced a multitude of problems that never existed with past Brita products.

Pro:

Size: This water dispenser can definitely hold a lot of water. (Ironically, this is really a disadvantage; as you will find below.)

Con(s):

Mold: If you do not let this filter dry within a maximum of two days, you will get mold. This mold will probably make you ill (sore throat) (Conversely if you look at it from another point of view - it will strengthen your immune system). To avoid this problem, the water dispenser should be washed every week at very least (to safe you should wash it more often). I have never had this problem with Brita's other products (I have friends who never washed their Brita pitchers for months, and there is not even the slightest sign of mold when they do wash it).

Left Over Water: Due to the faulty design of the product, there will be left over water both above the filter and below it. Besides turning the product upside down, you cannot dispense all of the water. This is just stupid and hints at the lack of quality assurance testing of this product. Not surprisingly, this helps further contribute to mold growth.

Conclusion:

Save your money and buy Brita's other well designed pitchers or even Pure's pitchers. (The key word is pitcher.) You will only waste time and possibly your health with this poorly designed product.

GE FQROMF Reverse Osmosis Membrane Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Excellent system and it does all that is advertized however, the price of the membrane at Home Depot and such make it almost worthwhile to buy bottled water. If I'd not found this product on AMAZON, I would have switched back because it would cost [...] per year just for this item not to mention the other two filters. It's a very good system but GE have the product owners by [...] and charge a rediculous price that went up another [...] in one year.

Avanti Hot and Cold Temperature Water Dispenser (White) (38.5"H x 12.75"W x 14.75"D) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)While it took a while to get here, my husband agrees with me that the Avanti Hot and Cold Water Dispenser was well worth the wait.

After our old dispenser gave up the ghost after twenty plus years, we looked at each other and said, 'what do we do now?' We tried shopping for another one locally but nobody had what we were looking for and we were, quite frankly, spoiled.

What do we like about the Avanti?

As the poet put it, let me count the ways.

First of all, because of its Energy Saver feature, the Avanti consumes less electricity than our old dispenser which ran constantly. It was also noisy. The Avanti, in contrast, is very quiet.

The Avanti features a neat little safety lock on the hot water faucet, which the old dispenser did not The storage space in the bottom, while it doesn't keep anything cold, is quite handy.

The Avanti's white plastic square design looks clean and nice. Our old brown metal dispenser did not. Also, unlike some of the round dispensers we looked at, the Avanti is not 'tippy'. Since it sits next to the kitchen doorway and a heavy traffic area, this was a real concern.

We also looked at dispensers that pumped from the bottom as well as the reviews and decided they were not for us.

The only CON was a chemical, almost musty, taste in the water for a few weeks after we got the Avanti, but that is now gone.

All in all, we are extremely pleased with the Avanti. It's much, much better than our old dispenser and we definitely give it 5 stars.

GE Icemaker Filter Kit (AP717) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I don't think I can review this particular item as the store I made the purchase from does not carry this item and instead, they sent me a different one with the excuse they are all manufactured by the same company. (I was really pissed off because I wanted a GE filter.)
Instead of reviewing the product, I will warn all to all Amazon community to make sure you get what you are paying for.

GE FXUTC SmartWater Undersink Filter Replacement Cartridge Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I moved into a new condo last year and the people that sold me it told me about the filter system under the sink, which has worked great. They said to replace it in about six months, and I finally got around to doing it. When I got online, I saw that they had Good, Better, and Best.I thought about going with the top of the line, but tap water in NYC is very good anyway, so figured I'd just get the cheapest to start.Replacement was pretty straightforward and I didn't need any special tools.

In all honesty, I didn't notice much of a difference in the TASTE between the old filter and the new, but I'm not sure that anyone would be able too. The stuff it's filtering out is probably microparticles that we can't really detect.

But what I DID notice, was that the flow of water through the special water spout (which is separate from the main faucet) came out much stronger. So that tells me that the old one was gunked up a bit and that it worked.

Bottom line, it shipped on time, did what it said it would, and I'll order again when I need to.

Everpure EV9318-40 Solaria Instant Hot Water Dispenser Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I was told that this unit was far superior to the Insinkerator that I was replacing after 10 years of great service. Not true.
The delivery of the water is uneven, you never know when it will dispense. When it builds up steam in the unit, it just starts dripping to relieve the pressure. There must be a better way, as I didn't have to put up with the dripping with my Insinkerator. I can't wait to replace it and it would be gone now, if I hadn't paid so much for it. It just feels flimsy, sorry it's not that hot.

Frigidaire : WFCB 3 PACK - Pure Source Filter; Old Style (2000 and Earlier) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)worked great, lasted ~6 months ( I started tasting bad water again in about 5 months but I figured I'd wait until the indicator light on my fridge came on), water tastes much better with a fresh filter.

Click Here to see more reviews about: Frigidaire : WFCB 3 PACK - Pure Source Filter; Old Style (2000 and Earlier)

Product Description:
The Frigidaire WFCB PureSourcePlus Refrigerator water filter fits most Frigidaire refrigerators made before 2001. It replaces frigidaire part numbers 5303917752, RF-200, RC200, RC-200, RC-101, and Sears Kenmore part number 46-9906, used in Kenmore refrigerators that are made by Frigidaire (model numbers starting with 253). Most refrigerators with this water filter have a sliding month marker built into the fridge above the filter housing. The PureSourcePlus filter cartridge itself has white ends, like the one pictured. It improves the taste and odor of the water and removes the following impurities: 99.99% of Cysts, 99.80% of Particulates (Class I), 99.70% of Turbidity, 99.30% of Lead, 97.80% of Chlorine (Class I), 94.2% of 2,4-D (a herbicide), 94.9% of Atrazine (a herbicide), and 87.5% of Toxaphene (a pesticide). It Does Not Remove Flouride. Frigidaire recommends that you replace the filter every 6 months OR if the refrigerator has not been used for more than two weeks (for instance, during a move) OR if you notice a decrease in the flow of water or objectionable tastes in the water or ice.

ZeroWater ZD-023 23-Cup Water Dispenser and Filtration System Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Get this and drink clean water!

I've been using a zerowater pitcher for about a year.Just got this larger dispenser and couldn't be happier.So much easier than buying bottles and the water is much cleaner and healthier (I add mineral drops to make it perfect).I am sensitive to Chlorine and Fluoride so zerowater makes me feel much better.

Most bottled waters are not nearly as pure as zerowater and contain chlorine, fluoride, or some of both.Lots of companies even add the fluoride after getting it clean.Maybe some people want it, but I don't.Of course bottles are a bad solution anyways, since the plastic chemicals can get into the water, and the bottles themselves create a lot of waste.

Not everyone needs to avoid chemicals in their water like I do, but everyone can enjoy drinking clean water.With this dispenser you can even cook with clean water.I drink the water cold, heat it in my electric kettle for tea, and make soup, all with perfectly pure water.

Just as a note, another reviewer mentioned using a PH test kit for a swimming pool.That test is not useful for drinking water.Typically pure water has a PH of 7, while your pool should be more alkaline (7.2 - 7.8 usually).So, an "acidic" result actually is further proof that the water is pure and below the test kit's range.Tap water tests more alkaline due to dissolved salts/minerals as well as chlorine, fluoride, etc.Because PH is a logarithmic scale, it would be completely normal to require large quantities of more alkaline water to raise the PH of pure water into the range of tap water or pool water.

Product Description:
With its generous 23-cup capacity, this innovative water-filtration system keeps pure, filtered drinking water conveniently accessible--its sleek, space-saving design fits neatly on the counter or on a shelf in the refrigerator. Functioning as both a water filter and a handy dispenser, the unit comes equipped with a push-button spout for simple one-handed dispensing into a glass, water bottle, or other beverage container, or even into a pot for cooking. Unlike conventional two-stage carbon filters, the dispenser's next-generation filtration system combines five levels of water-purifying technology. First, its activated carbon and oxidation reduction alloy removes the chlorine taste typically associated with tap water. Next, its Ion Exchange stage removes virtually all dissolved solids that may be left over from public water systems or even leached into water from aluminum, lead, and other types of piping. Finally, three additional stages of filtration remove other impurities and ensure the water receives the appropriate amount of treatment time to deliver a "000" reading on the included laboratory-grade Total Dissolved Solids (TDS) water-testing meter. Other accessories include a patented dual Ion Exchange water filter, a handy user manual, and $35 in coupons for future filter purchases. Thoughtfully designed, the water dispenser also provides a built-in TDS meter holder, a flip-up lid for easily adding more water, and a shape that completely dispenses all the water inside, which means no stale water to worry about. A useful addition to any busy and health-conscious household, the 23-cup water-filtration dispenser measures approximately 6 by 11-1/5 by 15-1/5 inches and carries a 90-day limited warranty.

Avanti Hot and Cold Water Dispenser - White Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I purchased this water dispenser for my office after the old one quit working. Having read quite a few reviews, I felt comfortable that I was getting a good product.

Once set up and filled with water, we discovered that the water it dispensed had a horrible chemical taste and smell. I immediately called Avanti, who told me they do not warranty the taste of the water dispensed, only the unit itself, and was given a lengthy process to try to flush the unit out and get rid of the bad taste. It involved dumping in bleach and much rinsing - and took quite a while. At the end, the water still tasted just as bad. Since Avanti customer service had these rinsing directions at hand to give when I called, I must assume they are aware of the problem with the dispensers and probably field these type of complaints frequently.

Since we were unable to return the unit, I continued flushing water through it hoping to lessen the bad taste. Finally I poured in white vinegar and some water and let it sit all day, and then drained it out and rinsed several times. Success - water finally tastes good to drink. The unit seems to be working properly now, but I am disappointed that a product purchased brand new should have required that much work in order to use it for its intended purpose.

Brita 42558 Aqualux Water Pitcher Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I have been using Brita water pitchers for a few years and I am a big fan of it. The taste of the water is very nice. It eliminates the need to buy dozens of bottled water every month and it helps the environment because it reduces the waste made from the plastic bottles. The previous pitcher that I have been using was poorly designed, but this pitcher is very much improved from the older ones. It's silm shape fits better in the fridge and the lid doesn't fall off when you pour, which happend quite frequently with the older model. The smaller lid is my favorite feature of this pitcher which makes filling it so easy. The electric timer is a TIMER, not a SENSOR. You reset the timer when you change the filter and the timer will count down 2 months, which is the usual lifespan of the filter.

Over all, a very nice water filtering pitcher. If you're sick of the plastic water bottles I would definitely recomend this product. Plus helps keep the environment clean!

Product Description:
The Brita Aqualux Water Pitcher turns ordinary water into healthier, great-tasting drinking water without costing a fortune and without the waste of bottled water. With Brita's advanced filtration process, you can enjoy water that's free of harmful substances and unappealing chlorine taste. Despite its slim profile, this smartly designed pitcher has capacity of 48 ounces, making it perfect for the whole family.

The Brita Aqualux
Water Pitcher offers:

Efficient, compact storage
Capacity up to 48 ounces
Reduction of potentially harmful impurities
Clean, better tasting water
A convenient, electronic filter change indicator
A flip-top lid and soft-grip handle

Each Brita filter helps reduce waste by substituting for an estimated 300 water bottles.



A flip top lid makes refills easy, and an electronic indicator ensures that you know when to change the filter.


Purified water is a powerful way to keep your whole body revitalized and uplifted.

All Brita Pitchers are universally compatible with Brita Pitcher Replacement Filters. Filtration System Reduces Harmful Contaminants
With the Aqualux Water Pitcher, you and your family can enjoy clean, better-tasting water straight from the tap. The pitcher's included Ion Exchange Resin filter acts as a magnet for impurities that are often found in tap water, such as lead, copper, mercury, cadmium, and zinc. The filter removes these impurities, reducing their potentially harmful effects. The filtering process also reduces that taste and odor of chlorine, thanks to a special sponge-like filtration system.


The end result is clean, better tasting water that is healthier for everyone. This is especially good news for children and pregnant or nursing women who are more susceptible to potential harm from lead and other impurities. Filters should be changed every 40 gallons or two months and are not intended for use with microbiologically unsafe water.


All Brita Pitchers are universally compatible with Brita Pitcher Replacement Filters.


Filter Change Indicator Ensures Healthier, Great-Tasting Water
Changing your filter regularly ensures that you will always have clear, healthful, great-tasting water. The Electronic Filter Change Indicator makes it easy to know when it is time to replace your filter. Every two weeks an indicator bar will disappear from your pitcher's electronic display. After two months, when all the bars have disappeared, an arrow will flash at the top of the display reminding you to change your filter. Reset your filter change indicator each time you replace your filter to make sure your water is always healthier and great tasting.


Smart Design Features Make Water Filtration Easy
The Aqualux Water Pitcher is built smart to make water filtration easy. The pitcher cover has a flip top so that you do not need to remove the entire lid to refill the pitcher. A contoured, soft-grip handle makes the pitcher comfortable and easy to lift and pour.


Stylish and slim, the Aqualux is designed to fit into your refrigerator door so you'll always have plenty of cold, filtered water on hand. Despite its compact size, the pitcher holds up to 48 ounces of water, enough for six eight-ounce glasses, making the Aqualux a practical choice for your family.


Improves Your Health and Invigorates Your Senses
Water is a vital resource in energizing your mind and body, and using a Brita Pitcher ensures that the water you're drinking is in top quality. It helps your body regulate its temperature, keeps skin clear and glowing, and aids in the transport of nutrients to the brain and other organs. It also acts as a powerful aid in digestion, metabolism, and detoxification. Brita recognizes the importance of water to human well being and takes special care to optimize the healthfulness of your drinking water, so you can keep fit and energized.


A Simple Way to Support the Environment
It's estimated that one Brita pitcher filter can substitute for the use of 300 water bottles, many of which end up in landfills. By using Brita filters, which are now recyclable through a Brita and Preserve filter recycling program, you lower your impact on the environment while benefiting your own health and possibly your wallet, too. Plus, your support of the Brita Products Company goes toward help environmental efforts like the Brita Climate Ride, a five-day bike ride whose participants raise money for climate change awareness.


About the Brita Products Company

Aqua-Pure AP217 Replacement Cartridge for Drinking Water System Filters (For Use With AP200) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I got this filter as a present.I have to advise anyone out there looking for a water filter system to be wary of the water filter system you buy.This filter system yet affordable, the filter costs almost half the price of the system and has to be changed EVERY 4 MONTHS.

I had to switch to the AQUABELLE water filter system that cost a bit more but their filter cost less than $50 and last 2 years.Buyer beware... buying a cheap water system may sound good for your pocket, butthey get you with the expensive filters that needs to be changed 3 or 4 times a year.

Important points when chosing a water filter on top or under the sink:

* Reduces Lead > 96%
* Reduces Chlorine > 99%
* Sediment Removal > 99%
* Eliminates Foul Tastes and Odors
* Removes Giardia Cryptosporidium Cysts
* Reduces Toxic Chemicals, Pesticides and Nitrates
* DOES NOT or Remove Trace Minerals
* Good for 2,500 Gallons (18 months)

Expect to pay between $150-200 for a filter with those features and the price for a replacement (12, 18, 24 month) filter between $25-40

PUR Water Filtration Dispenser 1 ea Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Our water comes from a well. It's good water - no bacteria - but, coming from the earth, while being reasonably clean, it's not exactly 'pure'. We have a filter in the basement but, since it's our kids who drink it, we used to have a faucet filter as well. Well... we decided that the faucet filters were more trouble than their worth so we switched to this unit.

It's quite easy to operate - attach the filter (2-5 seconds), fill the top with water and clean water trickles into the lower half. Cover the top and... add more water to the top half as needed. Every few months replace the filter and give it a good overall wash. That's IT.

WE WILL NEVER GO BACK :)

To summarize the good things about this implement:

- Pretty good capacity. Not so sure how much but it should be more than 1 gallon on a full load.
- Can keep it in the fridge or outside. We keep ours on the kitchen counter.
- It looks cool. It really does. It's designed and colored to convey 'freshness' and 'coolness'.
- I NEVER sensed anything 'chemical' about the water's smell of taste. It is possible that it depends of the quality of the water you pour in but the filter does a good job.
- The filters can be used for several months and they are worth the expense in my view.
- It lets your faucet operate the way it's supposed to. No faucet disfigurement or constraints from a faucet-attached filter.

I can't think of any major 'minuses'. If you hate faucet-attached filters but you'd still like extra clean-fresh water for drinking or cooking or tea and coffee brewing, this is what you need.
