I can stop buying bottled water, vitamin water, and crystal light! September 2, 2008 I primarily purchased this in order to quit the bottled water habit for good. It was easy to install and the water tastes fantastic. No more hauling giant cases of spring water from the store and filling up my recycle bin with dozens of bottles a week!
I read a lot of negative reviews on the taste of the flavor cartridges, and was pleasantly surprised to find that I love the taste of the flavored water as well. I drink a lot of crystal light and vitamin water, and the PUR flavor cartridges are right on par with those types of drinks. If they could make the cartridges more like vitamin water by adding actual vitamin enhancements, this would be the perfect product for me. My filter came with the peach cartridge, and I will definitely be trying the other flavors as well. It takes about 5 full squirts to get a nice tasting beverage, but you can experiment and find out what works best for you.
This was a fantastic investment!!
Perfect For Us. September 1, 2008 Oh, this is great compared to what came from the tap before. Easy, Simple, so we are happy. Try it I think you will also like it.
Not great August 11, 2008 Worked great the first 4 months, then it broke, started leaking water everywhere. Other than that it worked just fine, but I expected it to last a little longer for the money I spent on it.
A little bulky but worth the inconvenience May 27, 2008 I got this for Mothers day as I drink a lot of bottled flavored water. It does not taste as sweet, but that's ok, I've aquired a taste for it now and the bottled stuff is too sweet. The system is a little bulky and makes it hard to rinse large items in my sink. It can be removed but too much bother to do so. I am going to replace my faucet w/ a higher one any way. I am the only one who uses the flavor option, so the cartridges last a while for me. I have read the reviews indicating the unit does not hold up well. Too soon for me to tell but so far I love it.
Works Well, but Leaks Quite a Bit May 9, 2008 This product works well, but it leaks quite a bit. It takes about 3 squirts of flavor for 12-16oz glass of water. The filters last 2-3 months, so I'd suggest buying the 6-pack Pur 3 Stage Faucet Mount Filter #RF-9999, 6-Pack.
The installation is fairly simple, but after having it a few months, it started to leak from where it attaches to the faucet and also from the bottom (where the split is). Perhaps some super glue and maybe a new gromit?
