 Pur water replacement filter November 22, 2008
Very happy with the product. It does a nice job of providing clean, good tasting water.
 Better than bottled water! November 22, 2008
My son purchased the Pur water pitcher for me. I was buying bottled water and hated the cost and having to lug those cases from the grocery cart to the car and into the house.
It was a great idea...my son is sooo smart! The water is better than bottled and the pitcher sits on my refrigerator shelf. I did not want the kind that attached to the kitchen sink faucet.
 An downgrade from previous version? November 6, 2008
I have been using PUR for 10 years and have seen several generations of PUR filters. The last generation is the one with orange indicator that tells the life of the filter.
Now, PUR has smartly integrate this indicator inside the latest version of filter, where the filter will stop filtering (water stop dripping down the container) around the 60th day of usage! Now I have to rush to buy another replacement filter..., what a hassle!!
 3 hours per pitcher November 3, 2008
How long do you expect a water filter to last? Maybe the advertised 60 days?
I make two pitchers of water a day. My last four Pur filters (from two separate boxes ordered months apart) have gone "slow" on me within 3 weeks of starting them. 1-3 hours for a pitcher of water is not acceptable, and since this behavior is new within the last year, it's rather suggestive of a company trying to pressure us into buying a new box sooner than they advertise we'd need to.
I'm in Mountain View, CA, where the unfiltered water is pretty good, so it's not an issue of my input water having more pollutants than average. (For reference, the water here is better than Santa Fe, Chicago, DC, LA, and just about everywhere else in the US. So if you live in a place with water about as hard or harder than in any of those places, expect these filters to slow down on you even sooner than they do for me.)
Clean Water and a Greener Earth November 1, 2008
3 for 20$ or 7$ for each filter. Recommended use is approximately 2 months. Then I figure, do I spend 7$ on water for 2 months? Actually, probably 20 to 30$ which mean I am saving more than 20$ every 2 months. Plus, no more hauling gallons of water from the grocery. No kidding, they are heavy.
Most important of all, I won't be contributing much to the millions of water bottles that ends up on the landfill. After all, it is always being argued that tap water is as safe if not safer than the water you get from bottled water. Some of our household members find it hard to believe that argument. So enter the water filters. Now, everybody's happy.
