Elaine L. Bell: I have used these for years. They are getting hard to find so I will likely need to look for a substitute, unfortunately. They are easy to replace and the water tastes much better.

DIVER: It was easy to install , start to finish about 20 minutes. Now the downside I expected a pressure drop since water flowing thru the filter but I would be hard pressed to say it’s flowing at 1.5 gallons per minute. My normal water pressure is awesome, I would estimate I lost about 60% of my pressure, I will accept the low flow to have better water after all I already spent the money. Next time I will research for a better system that flows better.

Midwestern Review: After several months of using this filter I am satisified. I like how this unit stays under the sink, out of view. The water tastes great and from what I'm seeing the replacement cartridges are much more reasonably priced compared to the Dupont cartridges.

Wayne Ho: This is technically my 3rd order

1st order is 5 years ago and really like the product.

2nd order and 3rd is is just recently.

2nd order came in a plastic bag like envelope. Crushed and with the very important accessories missing.
I have no choice but to return it.

Unlike in USA, where they have home depot and other similars.

Over here, Those acceesories that come with it is not easily available locally. Thus the 2nd order is literally not usable.

I have no choice but to return it.

3rd order came in perfect in a cardboard box. everything is intact.

Product itself. Using it for 5 years previously. Zero complains. It filter away chlorine taste (My primary intentions) and other weird ordor from the water. It last about 6 months. Value for money.
It's a product worth getting for the price.

However, Amazon should pay attention more on the shipping package. Items that does not have a thick cardboard box. I don't think it is a good idea to ship them in plastic envelopes.

Other from the rude shock on the second order of this product.

All my orders from amazon is up to my expectations.

T: Great tasting water, with no chlorine smell for 4-5 months. Easy to replace (recommended every 6 months), no leaks. "Made in USA with globally sourced materials" (read: Made in China).

Pricy...

Now, on to technical details:

Removes hardness by 60%, reduces PH by 0.5 units (in our case from 7.5 to 7), completely removes Bromine and Chlorine. Did not reduce Fluoride. Total dissolved solids (TDS) also remained the same.

Marie-Helene Doucet-BeliveauMarie-Helene Doucet-Beliveau: The filter arrived in a box i thought had been opened several times. I almost returned it before opening but i gave it a try and the filter was sealed inside. I love these filters, they totally eliminate lead in the water (i had it tested in a lab, it works great.

Tim: Be forewarned this this system is not meant to install to a dedicated faucet for the filtered water, unlike their other, more advanced filter (green top). Purchased this system as getting their top notch system is no longer available, so decided to go with this system as it requires the special head for the filters. Since we already had a dedicated faucet from the last 3m filtrete system (green top), then I wrongfully assumed that this system could just be incorporated into it. WRONG! this system expects you to hook up to your cold line and anytime you then use your cold water from the tap, it will be filtered water (putting unnecessary usage on the filter). Now, just to make it work, plumbing parts will need to be purchased, and even then I'm not sure we can get it to work with the other filtrete system. Why 3m doesn't use the same size tubing for all their water filter systems is beyond me. Just adds to the frustration. So ....if you don't mind that you're using filtered water every single time you're using cold water, then it's pretty simple to install. But if you purchase this thinking you will have all the parts to run to a dedicated faucet for the water filter, you won't.

Kirk Bailey: Very easy to install. It cost about $70 to purchase. It replaced an existing reverse osmosis system in our kitchen. Why replace? The old system needed 3 filters replaced. Local company who are the local manufacturer's representatives quoted $500 for the set of 3 filters. I said "You must be kidding". They were insulted and said "no we have the best home water filtration system in the business". Their opinion only. $500 for 3 filters. Installation extra? So I started looking on Amazon's website looking for a replacement system and found 3M's Filtrete system. Great. Already use 3M Filtrete air filters in my furnace. I am already a 3M fan as in a previous career I was a senior assembly plant buyer for Ford Motor Company and 3M was, probably still is a major supplier of many products to all auto manufacturers. I was at Ford for 10 years and I can't ever recall any 3M shipments ever being rejected for quality issues and 3M always delivered on time. My personal opinion: 3M are among the greatest companies on the planet----not just for the Automotive Industry but for home products as well. I've never ever been disappointed by a 3M product,
