best value,February 7, 2009
By sonu123from NJ
"I bought this model but with a white faucet. In comparison to water filters that I've seen at friends' homes, this one is the best value. The filters are very affordable.
The water tastes fresh and clean. There are no odors at all.
If you return from lengthy vacation, then the water has a slight carbon taste to it, but that clears up after letting the water run for a minute."

Do not drill a 1 1/4" hole in your sink!,December 13, 2008
By gnomeadderfrom Santa Monica, CA
"One of the previous posters was kind enough to point this out and I will concur. No 1 1/4" hole is needed. You need only drill one 3/8" hole (measure the bit to the tubing) for the water conduit tube pipe stuff and two smaller ones the size of the screws which secure it to the sink. I used the rubber grommet as a template and marked the sink with a sharpie. Also I recommend what may be the obvious, but plan the placement of the filter housings carefully taking into account having to remove them to replace the filters. Make sure you push the tubes ALL the way into the filter housings. There is a point where you think your in and then push a little more. If the tubes aren't all the way in the pressure spits them out and you are covered in water (make sure ALL the parts are in the box especially BOTH o-rings and little plastic one way seal things that the tubes pop into. Mine was missing one and I figured it was internal and the tube popped out under pressure. I swapped the unit out at Sears and the new one works great.) I also turned the cold water pressure down under the sink to just enough pressure needed instead of all the way open.
My only fear with this thing is that the tube would come loose while we're on vacation and we'd come back to a flood. I will be shutting the cold water off when we go.
The instillation was super easy. The only hard part was drilling the holes. The spigot is a little cheap but the water tastes great. Ironically I developed a kidney stone the day after I installed it. But I sure do drink a lot more water because now it is so easy! Consumer Reports rated this one very high which is why I chose it. Read ALL the directions and Drink lots of Water! Have fun."

Two steps forward, one back,December 7, 2008
By Cybertroothfrom Ashland, Oregon
"I bought this filter to replace an earlier, discontinued model that we’d had for about six years. But the cheap plastic faucet assembly finally broke. The filtering on that one was very good; close enough to bottled spring water so that you had to directly compare to tell the difference. (But our water here is pretty good to begin with; it’s mainly removing the chlorine, which this does very well.) This new one is just as good in filtering, and the faucet assembly is greatly improved: it’s sturdier, the spout swivels, and the replacement timer is handy for the forgetful. However, they did neglect to put a right-angle connector on the filter unit output on this new model, which makes it a bit harder to fit under the sink, since you have to allow another few inches for the rather stuff tubing. Still, overall a major improvement to a good filter design."

2-Stage Filter Great,October 30, 2008
By WillOfColoradofrom Colorado
"It takes away the truly annoying chlorine smell our local water supply has. The flow rate is very good; our previous filter trickled in comparison. One important note regarding installation: you don't need to make a 1 1/4 inch diam hole in the sink top/counter (a difficult task with stainless steel). Three separate small holes (one for the flow tube, two for the connecting screws) suffice and are easily done with a drill."

Excellent water filter,July 13, 2008
By obiewankenobifrom Fairfax, VA 22033
"I have had a dual stage Sears filter for 15 years. It does a remarkable job. The only repair has been the o-rings/seal about about 10 years. You can still get many different kinds of filters for any given water issue. We fill a large water dispenser in our refrigerator with water from this filter. We save a lot of money by not buying bottled water."

Good product, good price,April 12, 2008
By TheEditorfrom New York City
"We had our handyman install the filter, which he said was easy. It works very well, water pressure is good, and after running water through it first for a few minutes, the filters kicked in. The water tastes markedly better than from the regular tap, and looks cleaner. Plus, the separate spout swivels slightly to get out of the way. The biggest issue with this filter is the lack of information on sears.com about replacement cartridges. Order replacements #34373 and #38480."
