Water Filter System Giude

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I purchased one of these last week at Bed Bath and Beyond. I didn't even know I needed one until I saw it. As with most Cuisinart products, the design of the unit is quite nice. But aesthetics aren't everything.

To begin with, the directions aren't very clear. I attempted to pre-soak the filter as directed, but it didn't seem to do anything. Also, the initial filtering of the water took a lot longer than the instructions stated. I believe they said it would take about 15 minutes for the water to filter through into the dispenser. Mine took almost an hour. Who knows, maybe I didn't soak the filter properly. But that was just the beginning of my problems.

Once the water was filtered, I switched the device on. It was a lot louder than I thought it would be. Actually, I wasn't expecting much noise at all. The device does quiet down a bit, after it has reached its target temperatures for the hot and cold. But after you dispense some water, it kicks back in again. If you have a large kitchen, the sound of the device might not be a problem for you. After all, it's a small price to pay for instantly available hot and cold filtered water. OK, "instantly" might not be the best choice of words.

To dispense water from either side, you have to press in and hold the appropriate button. The water comes out in a steady stream, but a very thin stream. Which means, it takes a long time just to fill up one cup. Even as a single man, this kind of wait was unbearable. I can't imagine someone with a family using this device. In any case, if you do end up purchasing this device, I wish you luck. I ended up returning mine just a few days after I purchased it.

(More customer reviews)I've used these filters for about 2 years now (with the whole water dispenser bottle system).

They are great. They really do make tap water taste like bottled water.

You need to change the filter about every 4 months even though it says 6 months. That may just be because we drink a lot of water.

Over all a great product!

(More customer reviews)I purchased the unit after reading reviews of the product which said it was too slow but purchased it anyway.Upon receipt I quickly got it started and it was like watching grass grow, it took forever to fill the reservoir and the recovery rate is poor.I use the water for making coffee and it could not sufficiently provide drinking water and water for coffee.I sent it back.Don't waste your time as I did.

(More customer reviews)Last week this item wasn't available through Amazon, so I drove to a Wal*Mart 40 miles away.It was worth the drive.I am thrilled with this product. It does everything and more than the ads say.It will fill one bottle at a time if you want and it has a spout on the side so you could fill a container to make coffee.

But just a little info., shame on this vendor for their price.I paid $37.95 for this at Wal*Mart.I know it's hard, but if you can't find it somewhere for that price...wait.Soon it will be all over the web.

(More customer reviews)My daughter recommended this water system;we tried it her home in Chicago and got one for ourselves.
At first no matter what I did it never was reading "0"...I was still using it with a reading of 7 or 9 ;instead of 39 from the water directly from the tap.
Then my husband checked the system as I was pouring water in the top and realised that the little nipple between the 2 filter heads was leacking into the reservoir chamber.We took it apart and looked at it closely to discover that the plastic bump was cut of and the untreated water was going through a pin size hole where the plastic was broken.I placed a little crazy glue in the hole ; waited 2 days and put the system back together...it has been reading zero from that day on!!! It is a good system but they may not test the pieces before they are sent out.Same when I ordered replacement filters...one had a missing rubber gasket;so I used one from the old filter...with the price of the system it should not happen this often to one costumer...but we still love it;the water has no taste and that is wonderful!

(More customer reviews)The Water Cooler works great! The setup process can be a little
cumbersome but once setup, the unit is a convenient way to get fresh
water for either drinking or cooking.I have hard well water and it
tasted a little funny but the water cooler filters out that taste. It
also saves room in my refrigerator since I use to have a Brita,
providing a superior alternative.

(More customer reviews)Having lugged 5-gallon water bottles for many years, the ZeroWater system has been a Godsend. We use the larger ZeroWater2-part container on top of the same watercooler that used the large 5-gallon bottles. That water tastes great and is crystal-clear. My only complaint is the cost of the filters. Brookstone sold the 4-pak for $29.99 last year, but it's up to $52.99 now which is only a bit cheaper than Home Depot's $60.00 price. If it weren't for that high cost, I would have rated the water filtration system 5 stars.
