Bought this to use with my Costco purchased Watts Premier WP2-BVC. Note that these are the filters for the WP2-LCV system but are fully compatible with either system. I was looking for these filters because they are optimized (marketing?) for reduction of volatile chemical contamination in addition to reducing contamination by biological organisms. Very good price (at least a third cheaper than other vendors I considered). I called Watts Premier customer service and they confirmed that these are the same as their sku 560030.

I purchased these as a first time replacement for my Watts 2 Stage Water Filtration unit and I am so glad I did! First of all, they are about half the price of ordering straight from Watts and amazingly, the water tastes better with these replacement filters than it tasted with the original filters that came with the unit! They are supposed to be the same filters as those but there is definitely a difference in the taste of the water! Tastes cleaner! Go figure...

I probably wont buy this filter again due to its low water flow. It cut the water flow in half of the previous filter.

i always looking for in Home Depot but never find one that fix to my filter. I have to buy for this way and glad for that. Good price

The filter arrived on time and fits correctly. Since I have no way of analyzing the water, I'll accept that it is working well. The water tastes good.
Thanks,
Tom

These filters fit in my standard two stage filter under the sink. They seem to work as stated on the site.

I was very happy to find this replacement filter for my Watts 500313 2-Stage Undercounter Lead, Cyst & VOC Reducing Drinking Water System,

I was previously using the Watts 2-PK Bio Premier 6-Month Microbiological Replacement Filture, but this had been out of stock for many months, so I finally decided to try this model. I was exteremely pleased to find that it fits our system and works GREAT. I was able to immedietly taste the difference in our drinking water. I'm relieved to find a replacement filter that works so well.

We have two houses with the Watts WP2-BVC water dispensers installed. We have replaced our main house filters before with ones from FastFilters.com and they work fine. We then bought some from Costco (Watts brand filters) and they had a peculiar obtrusive taste after replacement. We returned them back to Costco. We have since replaced the filters in our vacation house recently with Watts brand purchased from Amazon. Same taste problem. I contacted Watts about the issue and he thought it might be a water issue. I explained both houses had the same problem and they are 200 miles apart (one on well water and the other on city). He then suggested we insert another inline filter to remove the taste and he mentioned others have done this for their reverse osmosis systems. This did not make sense as RO systems are supposed to be the purest water filter, not to mention that's the reason we bought their system, and not to cludge something to make it work. Watts did not even hint at the possibility their filters are eminating something extra or are even interested in finding out themselves what is really going on. Amazon was great in their response to the issue. They even allowed us to try both packages of filters, and yes, both had the same offending odor. I put back in the original filter for now and am looking for another NON-WATTS system. I did notice a GE system at Home Depot I may try. BTW, I am impressed with Amazon's service. I just ordered a printer I needed from them because of that.

I use the Watts exterior 2stage filter on my boat in the Bahamas.

Many times water has a foul and bad taste. This is the only filter combination that cleaned the island water before entering my tanks. Finally drinkable water and ice.

I have previously purchased filters, that this time around were no longer available. No problem, as there is a replacement. The information was rather vague, as to exactly which filter(s) to replace my obsolete ones with! Took my best, educated guess, and was successful. Moral - Selection could be made a bit clearer to end user! Additionally the filters that came were not exact replacements, in that the coupling on the filter was different. First thought was "oh boy" wrong filter. It worked fine, but again it would have been helpful to have enclosed some written notification stating the new configuration was workable, and perhaps an explanation of the difference. Otherwise satisfied.
