I have been using these for about 8 years now and moved to the 3 stage when they came out. I use them primarily for drinking water and cooking. They typically last about 3 months for me. I go through a LOT of drinking water and probably less than average for cooking.

Based on using them on two different water systems, I also believe the quality of the water going in makes a huge difference in the life of the filter... but then that really is just common sense isn't it? For instance, using it the week after a city wide fire hydrant flushing will use one up very quickly. I can't speak to what that means to anyone else, but it tells me it is WORKING!

As another reviewer mentioned... ONE HOT WATER EPISODE WILL KILL A FILTER! It is a shame it is this way, but I have on two occasions had someone turn on hot water and let it run through the filter for a while. The filter would stop flowing within a day after that. The instructions warn against this, but... Read more

1.0 out of 5 stars Marked Change in Quality from Last Order, March 28, 2011

This review is from: PUR MineralClear Faucet Refill RF-9999, 6 Pack (Tools & Home Improvement)
I've been using these filters since 2005, and I have been ordering them online in 6 packs from this site since 2009.

I'm not sure what is going on, but after the second filter change in this most recent purchase, I've come to the conclusion that these filters have been "changed" such that their performance has dramatically declined. Simply put, my water now tastes POORLY.

The first thing I noticed upon receipt of this latest 6-pack, is that the outer wrapping of the individual filters is not shrink/vacuum--packed. In all previous orders these filters where vacuum-packed. Secondly, there is no product labeling on the same wrappers, which was not the case in previous orders for they were labeled. Third, the filters feel "less heavy" and feel similar to salt shakers, in that one can tell there are loose granules inside (some of which appear loosely leaked inside the packaging--white round granules), which I never noticed before. Finally, the best and most... Read more

4.0 out of 5 stars [Updated] Product is good, but PUR is not competent to answer questions, December 3, 2010
This review is from: PUR MineralClear Faucet Refill RF-9999, 6 Pack (Tools & Home Improvement)
UPDATE:
A few months after I posted this, PUR finally contacted me with an intelligent response.

They apologized (again) and explained that their RF-9999 DOES in fact contain ion-exchange resin.

I don't know whether or not I should be surprised that it took them this long to come up with a response. Perhaps they assume that most people will have no idea what ion-exchange resin is and will therefore not ask about it or look for indication of it on the packaging.

Also, other people have responded to my review with useful comments. Check them out. For instance, one commenter explains this product's certifications.



My original review:
I own a PUR faucet attachment that takes the RF-9999 filter replacement cartridge. Out of concern for my baby girl's health, I wanted to make sure that the water we mix in her formula is free of lead and other heavy metals. The copper pipes that carry water in your house have... Read more
