I bought this filter about a year ago. It does a great job, I can taste a huge differance. The water flow didnt bother me at first, but after a week the window indicater started to leak. It wasnt bad at first but then it just got worse with time. Now, more water comes around the window than through the filter. I have to clean it all of the time because of the nasty stuff filtered out builds up around the window and the bottom piece where it twists on started to mold. I looked up the filter and found that it's a common problem with this model. It's too much to buy filter after filter if they will all end up the same way. But since it does a good job we've kept it. We just dont turn the filter all of the way down and keep the water flow low, so it takes SO LONG to get a glass of water. I'v been looking at water pitchers just to have a less time consuming way of getting clean water.

"I ordered this unit for my mother. She received only the bottome portion of it in one box and in the 2nd box was only a pen and not the rest of the filter. The seller then accused my mother of lying. It's a $30 filter that I bought for her to have clean water. We order all the time from Amazon and we have never had any problems. I want the money credited back to my account immediately! Any now after asking for the refund, which has yet to be credited, they have the nerve to ask for the original boxes back, still accussing her of lying. I'm having my mother email me her scanned copy of the receipt from the store she had to go to just to get a complete working water filter. I am extremely disappointed in Tarsal for not taking care of their customers. I'm the Supervisor of Customer Service at a very large National retail store and we most certainly do not take care of our customers this way."

I got this water filter a few days ago and it is GREAT! The water tastes cleaner and better than the tap. This product will let you chug away because one filter lasts 100 gallons of water. I live in Omaha, Nebraska and the water here is bad but, the PUR changed everything. My mother has had one for a year now and has not had ANY PROBLEMS with her PUR. The bypass feature is also a good idea. The pitcher styles are not as easy to use as the sink mount ones. Would recomend to anyone who wants to drink that 8 glasses a day without breaking the bank.
