Average Performance

Drinking water faucet is made of chromed plastic. The plastic button on the handle falls out and can be easily lost. The rate of water flow is frustratingly slow. To fill a 12 cup coffee reservoir takes several minutes. This flow rate is begining to degrade as time passes (30 days) since installation. The installation was not too bad, but I had to purchase a new flexible faucet supply line because the adapter for the filtration system shortens the path between the water supply valve and the cold water stub on the sink faucet. Also, a watch style battery comes with each filter cartridge, but they do not tell you how/where to install it. It goes in the plastic faucet handle, but the polarity is a crap shoot. If you put it in backwards, the cartridge timer light glows red. Putting it in the other way, the light goes out, so I suppose it starts a six month timer and then turns on. Water tastes excellent using a US-EZ-3 style cartridge with well water.

good value

I was using Brita pitcher and Brita faucet mount before. I wanted more economical and neat looking way to get rid of iron taste (our water is well water and the pluming is old).
This unit works great. We also install the sediment filter on upstream though, the taste of water comes out of this faucet is as good as Brita filtered water.
Installation was easy, and the faucet comes with is great looking.
After a month, This unit is still giving good flow rate which is faster than Brita Faucet mount I was using before. But I imagine enough water pressure needed on upstream of this unit so if you have clogged old pluming on upstream, you may not get desirable flow rate.

too slow

i wanted to return it because the water is only dripping out of the faucet
however its been over 30 days so i can't
the water tastes pretty good and the filter seems to do its job but it comes out so slow that it is unusable.
