Cuno makes the AP810. It is a trusted company. Expensive, but worth the cost since under normal conditions, the filter needs to be replaced only every 4-6 months.

good price, also fits whirlpool clear model cannister which I prefer because you need to see whats in the filter to know when it needs to be changed

I have been using the AP810 5 micron filters for 10 years. No trace of sediment in our system and it catches a fine clay like sludge. I can usually flush the filter out a couple times and keep using it. They do fail though if you keep doing this so I don't push it beyond a couple rinses. Your mileage is going to vary but I get 6 months between flushes even on a a new will that had significant initial sediment. Flow will reduce a bit once the sediment creeps up to the canister to about half way, but the flow is still useable at that point. This is when I usually flush it out.

easy to use, but a little more expensive then i think it needs to be.
does a good job keeping silt out of the pipes.

Does a good job at removing both sediment and what seems to be iron scale from the water. Doesn't seem to restrict water flow at all.
