3M 3US-PF01
Mr. Von - Canada (Monday, February 11, 2013)
We are on a well water system that has a high iron content so twice a year we use hydrogen peroxide in the well and have an iron filter on the main line and this 3M filter on the kitchen faucet. We do get some sediment in the water on the unfiltered faucets but this filtered line effectively provides clean, good tasting water. The filter lasts us about 6 - 7 months. These units do cost more than some other brands, but I like how easy it is to change these filers with minimal water spillage plus the fact they remove parasitic cysts is a bonus.

I'd give it 5 stars for performance, and two for filter life, so it averages to three. The restricted flow is a PITA as far as I'm concerned larger inlet and outlet hoses would help here. I get about the same life as Partain 5-6 weeks before it drops to an unacceptable flow rate. Our water is better than average on sediment here, so I'm not sure why it drops so quickly. But the better taste and smell keep me buying these things.

I live in a condo with just my wife. The water tasted like chlorine from city water supply. The filter has lasted 9 months so far with no change in taste or water flow. The filter reduces the water flow about 20% for us, but it's fine. We had professional install with copper tube under the sink that cost about $100.00.

Great filter - We use 2 of these on different sinks we drink from. Lasts us almost 6 months in the kitchen, even longer upstairs (usually about 9 months). Those times will vary with your local water. Here we are blessed with very good drinking water. Just remember any filter that has as small a micron rating as this does will clog faster than other filters, but think of all the nasty stuff it is taking out of that water. If it does not last very long for you, I would request a water quality report from your water company (they are required by law to give it to you). It is a real eye opener, if you have bad water, band together with others in your community to change things :)

we have alot of nasty tasting iron in our water and the filter completely clears it up BUT I have bought and used 5 filters in 7 months. for us, the effective life is about 1 month, after which the flow becomes too weak.

Very satisfied with product. Water taste is good. Flow and taste good up to about 5-1/2 months.

Have no problem with water from the filter taste, quality wise, but I do believe 3M out to revise their time frame for replacement. Now I realize that my water could be dirty, but no more than probably anyone elses. Yet I can't get 5 weeks of use out of it without accepting a small speen (?) of water..... less than the size of a pencil and very restricted flow.
