What to Expect: Cheap Water Filters Performance
Water Filters Taste/Filtering.
Removing contaminants and providing fresh-tasting, odorless water are the key performance criteria for cheap water filter systems, and we found several that pass these tests.Water Filters Systems Ease of Use.
User-friendly is a term that describes the cheap water filters on our list. In a water filters review on ExpoTV.com, one user effusively compliments the Brita Riviera system for being easy to use; she says changing the filter and refilling the pitcher only takes a minute and that her five-year-old handily performs the task. Consumers posting water filter systems reviews at FridgeFitlers.com and VitaCost.com appreciate the convenience of the PUR DS-1800Z; they note its long, thin design holds more water and fits in smaller spaces than other models and the pour spout means you don't have to remove the dispenser from the refrigerator to pour a glass of water. The Clear2Go finds fans at Amazon, who write in water filter reviews that this cheap portable model fits perfectly in the water bottle holder on a bike and the top is wide enough to accommodate ice. The Brita 42629 Slim Pitcher is very basic, but users comment in water filter systems reviews on Drugstore.com that its compact size is just right for the refrigerator door and another says the stickers that go on the pitcher are helpful in reminding you when to change the filter. The PUR FM-9400B faucet water filter fails to impress users at Walmart, where water filters reviews complain about leaking and the difficulty of getting a good grip on the filter compartment cover when trying to change the filter.Water Filters Durability.
Water filter systems last, although as noted above, the filters need frequent replacement. The water pitcher on the Brita Riviera is tough and durable, according to water filter systems reviews on sites like WaterFilters.net and Amazon, where several users report the pitcher has lasted for years. Ditto for the PUR DS-1800Z, according to consumers posting water filter systems reviews on Target, and for the Brita 42629, according to water filter reviews on Amazon; one user notes that she and her husband received the slim Brita model as a wedding gift more than three years ago, haven't been especially careful with it, but it still looks and works like the day they opened the box.On the other hand, durability is the main problem for the PUR FM-9400B faucet water filter. Users posting water filter reviews on Amazon, Walmart, Target, and Ace Hardware give it very low ratings due to frequent problems with leaks and breakage within months of purchase. If you're keen on a cheap faucet filter, the Brita On-Tap FF-100 faucet filtration system might be a better bet. Although a few users at Drugstore.com complain about leaking, most are satisfied with the Brita On-Tap and say it goes the distance; that is, the five years of its expected battery life.
