Don't allow water over 100 deg f to go through filter it will ruin it.I have had mine for many years but it's time for a new one as water comes out of filter outlet when off.Quality product. They should list what the filter can do on Amazon,what it filters and the replacement filter.Here is a copy and paste from Instapures web site.The Instapure F2 Essentials faucet filtration system uses the R2 replacement filter, which is included and reduces contaminants like lead, microbial cysts, VOCs, and chlorine taste and odor for up to 3 months or 200 gallons.

We filter water for things like beverages and water bottles so this gets a lot of use in our house. Easy to replace the filters. It can be a little tricky to install. Take your time and be sure to get the connecting adapter threaded properly without any cross-threading and it will work well.

I have had many water filters and this is the only one I will purchase. Water is suppose to be clear, odorless and tasteless. This is what you get with Instapure water filters. The water is crystal clear and refreshing, no after taste of any kind. Will only use this brand from now on. Great product!

A simple and inexpensive alternative to a larger under counter plumbing job. This unit attaches to the end of the faucet and provides on/off filtering of your tap water. The units charcoal filters have limited capabilities unlike the larger more efficient units,but do seem to eliminate chlorine taste,odors etc from our city water. The filters must be changed about 4 or 5 times a year depending on usage.The unit will probably wear out in a few years and need complete replacement.

this is EXACLY why i NEVER review ANYTHING until i've used it for "reasonable" timeframe. i take INCREDIBLY delicate care of items such as ythis one. this weekend, upon shifting the faucet from one sink to another, the unit fell off into my sink. i WAS getting ready to order some replacement filters but... for what? i don't know which units will NOT perform in this way (it was great until this). as well, i don't know if there is some built-in obsolescence built in to the product. - i expect there is. but WHY should it NOT last until a customer has had the opportunity to purchase 4-6 months of filters? completely miffs me. at this point, due to expectations set by THIS item... i have no idea what a similar. affordable option would be.

We have tried quite a few faucet-mount water filters (the popular brands) and they have all leaked within a short time of purchasing them. This one, we have never had an issue with. The filters are also a lot more cost friendly. Would happily purchase again if needed.

Did not fit my kitchen faucet so gotta find a solution. Product looms excellent. Can not go wrong with the price as well. Too bad it does not filter all the fluoride in out drinking water. Good buy 10-10!

I'm very disappointed with this filter. There is one plastic nut that fits over the end of the fsucet to screw the entire filter assembly on. Unfortunately this piece wouldn't work with my slightly oval faucet and I could never install the filter. Otherwise the whole thing seemed quite well built, but I'm not sure how it would have held up.

I wasn't sure what to expect from this unit because I'd never heard of the brand before. However, I've been very pleased with it's performance. Assembly was a breeze, and I had it mounted and purifying water within 10 minutes. Although every part of the unit is plastic, at first glance you would think it was a much more expensive brand. I haven't had any problems with leaking or bad tasting water. If I have one complaint it would be that there isn't an indicator on it to let you know when the filter needs to be changed. I tend to wing this even when I have an indicator so that wasn't a big deal for me. Overall, I would definitely recommend this to someone that wanted the clean, fresh taste of water instead of whatever chemicals they drop in our drinking water these days.

Pleasantly surprised that filter perfectly fits my existing faucet mounted filter (Water Pic). The excessive cost of the recommended replacement filter for the Water Pic, had me buying a new filter with more reasonably priced filters. So still using my Water Pic now that I know replacement filters are available. Instapure still in original box, and will be used when Water Pic wears out.

We're very happy with this filter. We use it on the kitchen faucet for our drinking water and we noticed a major difference in the taste of the water right away. My husband installed it quickly and easily. I told him about the reviews that said it leaked and he used waterproof tape to shore it up. It worked perfectly and we were/are very happy with the filtering quality and ease of use.Unfortunately, the first one we purchased randomly broke and dropped off after under six months of use, and it could not be reattached. I contacted Amazon and the customer service rep I spoke to said that typically, after thirty days, I would need to contact the manufacturer, but he didn't want me to have to mess with all that. So he immediately shipped me a new unit and provided a shipping label so I could return the old one. If it breaks again I will contact the manufacturer, but this kind of thing is why I keep spending money with Amazon.

I don't remember what water used to taste like. When I was a kid, the town starting putting so much chemicals in the water that I would start having allergic reactions to it: hives and rashes! I couldn't drink it and my clothes couldn't be washed in it. After enough complaints the town dialed back in chemicals but I know water never tasted the same. When the water on the fridge broke I had to buy water in the bottle which just got too expensive so I got this filter for everyone. My mom said, "Wow! This tastes just like it used to when I was growing up." My grandma cried, gave me a big hug and said, "You just don't know what this means to me to have this. I was so sick of this nasty water and having to boil it all the time just to drink it." So, while I don't remember what good water used to taste like, I have to believe that what is coming out of this filter is good water. I personally hate water. I could only drink Deer Park water. I've stopped buying Deer Park and I drink from the filter now. It's the only water I don't hate now.It's not too hard to assemble and all you need to do so is in the box. It's relatively cheap to buy filters. I go to Lowes and get a 4 pack for $17 and it can last up to a whole year. Cheap! Cheap! It did start to leak once but I just jiggled it around and retightened. The leaking stopped.
