Nice little water filter by: Thomas Jones (Portland,Maine) "We have small office and this is the third water filter that we have tried, and it is by far the best.

Pluses:
Sleek design
Filter can be installed on top of the counter or under the counter
No counter space required when installed under the counter
Under the counter option uses a separate water spout - no hot water can run through the filter and damage it
Excellent filtration and value for the price
Water on demand - no storage container necessary
Filters are maintenance free - do not have to wash filter, only replace it when necessary
Minuses:
If you want to install this water filter under the counter you must purchase the Under-sink Conversion Kit and have it professionally installed by a licensed plumber
No color choices - it is only available in the color white
Filter must be changed twice a year depending on water quality
Filter is not washable - this means more filter replacements for those in areas where there is a lot of particles in the water
Counter top model allows hot water to run through it - must be careful not to let hot water run through the filter because hot water will ruin the filter
Summary:
The Aquasana water filter is an excellent value for the price. This unit can be installed above or below the counter depending on your preference. If you are going to install it under the counter be aware that it does require the conversion kit (sold separately) and will need to be installed by a licensed plumber. However, it will not take up any counter space and the separate water spout saves the filter from allowing hot water run through it. The filter is not washable which make this water purifier maintenance free except for replacing the filter as needed. Because the filter is not washable, we do not recommend it for areas with a lot of silt in the water because it will require frequent filter replacements.
