Pluses:
- No additional faucets or spigots required. Connects directly to the cold water line and provides filtered water directly from the tap.
- Will greatly improve the quality of the water by removing chlorine taste and odor and sediments.
- Compared to the 3M Filtrete 3US-AS01 model, this filter provides added protection against parasitic cysts.
- Neatly fits underneath the sink out of sight and out of mind.
- Quick and easy filter change with no tools or mess compared to traditional filter cartridges.
- Convenient and set at an affordable price.
- NSF/ANSI tested and certified by standards 42 and 53 for the reduction of chlorine taste and odor and parasitic cysts.
Minuses:
- We wish the filter lasted longer than 6 months. However, filter life could last longer depending on water conditions and the amount of people using the filtration system.
- For cold water use only.
Summary:
The main draw to the 3M Filtrete 3US-PS01 water filtration system is that it's easily installed directly into your cold water line, doesn't require separate faucets for dispersing the filtered water and replacing the filter is a breeze. After being installed we found the water flow to be slightly less yet still fast enough for our liking nonetheless. Once the water flow decreases significantly that is a sign to replace the filter. The filter did a satisfying job removing the chlorine taste and odor and the water tasted better than the water filter pitcher and bottled water we were using before. Although it may not remove many of the contaminants some of our other filtration systems do, the 3M Filtrete is an affordable choice for those who simply want to reduce the amount of chlorine, sediment and parasitic cysts from their city or town water.
