5.0 out of 5 stars
Water so clean, it almost tastes distilled,

This review is from: Clear2O Filter (3 Pack) (Kitchen)
Clear2O makes a decent pitcher, with a few design quirks. However, their filters do a much better job of removing impurities than Pur or Brita could ever hope to, and the taste difference is truly noticeable. The solid block carbon is the secret, but if you are looking for a "crisp" taste rather than a "dull" taste, go for the Brita.
The filters are supposed to be changed after 50 gallons, but I've read that the pitcher may show "red" before the 30 gallon point. I can say that Clear2O changed their filters about a year ago to last an extra 10 gallons (I called in about the slight change in filter model numbers). Unfortunately, the pitcher is not modified to accommodate this change, so you just have to run the pitcher until it's back in the "green" area again if your pitcher is like mine (surely newer ones accommodate this change now). I've found that the filters still seem to filter about the same until after the second full cycle of green-to-red. At that point, the taste starts to get a little different and you run the risk of some sort of bacterial floaters resting on the bottom of the pitcher. This behavior is probably why the Clear2O site says you need to clean the inside of the pitcher with vinegar at each filter change, because not doing this assures the bacterial film will eventually appear. If you always refill the pitcher before it ever runs out of water, you can almost assure in time a bacterial film, which can be dislodged by shaking the water around and then looking through the pitcher at a light source. It appears to be harmless, as I found out I'd been drinking the film for awhile. This three-pack gives you the best price per filter, and it can be sent via Prime. Why do I put up with the "dull" taste and the potential for a harmless film? Because both the laboratory test results and my tongue tell me there's almost nothing left but pure water, and that is what I want for tea, coffee, and any other drink I may desire, and we go through a lot of filtered water in my home.

Surely a 4.5!,

This review is from: Clear2O Filter (3 Pack) (Kitchen)
Had the Britta for a while. What I did not like was the fact that the sensor that told you when to change the filter worked on a time basis. Meaning that if you did not use the pitcher, even kept it empty, and a month went by it would tell you it was time to change the filter. On a side note I also discovered that Braun's Pulsonic Electric Shaver Cleaning Station works on the same principle. Meaning that wether you use these products or not they will announce that a change of parts is in order (Baloney with a capital B). Enter the Clear2O Filter 3-pk. This system is by far the most efficient for it measures how many gallons of water you are consuming to determine when you need to replace the filter. Meaning, and I am sorry if I sound like I am lecturing because I am not, that if one doesn't use the pitcher for a year and then started using it again it would continue to count the gallons. Fair is fair. The water tastes as viable as the one Britta delivered in the same kind of pitcher, the amount of time for the pitcher to filter the water much much quicker, so what is not too like? At first I was inconvenienced by the fact that you had to connect the pitcher's hose to your faucet but once I climbed that hill I very much appreciate the performance, taste and durability. So look at me and my long winded effort! Surely a 4.5 more than 4 for the Clear2O Filter 3-pk.

It works as advertised,
It's fast. Less than a minute to fill a pitcure with filtered water compared to 10 minutes or so for Brita. The 40 gallon filtering capability is good and the color warning code helps you know when to change filters.
