Brita 42618 Faucet Mount Filter - Replacement Filter  Product Reviews

"Short delivery time, good price (with no shipping fee for my order). The filters were in their original unaltered package. I am very happy with the service from Amazon."

"Have used the Brita Faucet Filter for over two years and have gotten all my filter refills from Amazon. Works great...."

"The Brita Chrome On Tap Faucet Filter lasts longer than the four months Amazon says it does--at least it did for me! I think it depends on how much you use the faucet this filter is attached to. The filter is relatively easy to attach to the faucet; you get directions but if you're still all thumbs (like me) a friend can install it for you in about two minutes. Brita makes a great faucet filter; and I'm going to tell you why. The Brita filter does indeed remove at least some of the contaminants that are often found in faucet tap water. Once the filter is attached there's really nothing special you need to do--just turn on the faucet as you ordinarily would and the filter does all the work. The filter has a clear indicator light to let you know that it is time to change the filter so you get the maximum amount of use from the filter before you know for sure that you have to discard it. In addition, the filter eliminates bad tastes and odors from your tap water. I have been fortunate enough that I have not experienced odors from my tap water but I do notice a very nice change for the better in terms of taste after the Brita faucet filter is attached to my faucet. It even helps to add fluoride to your water, too! What a great feature! You won't have to buy as much bottled water, either. Great! One reviewer notes that these filters are not recyclable. In these times that's a crying shame. Perhaps Brita can re-manufacture these in such a way as to not change the design or ease of use too much while making these filters recyclable. I don't see why Brita can't do that; and I will take off one star for that to make this a four star review just as the other reviewer did. Overall, this is a great faucet filter by Brita and the two pack is very reasonably priced, too. I highly recommend this filter for anyone who has concerns about the quality of their faucet water. If you have special health concerns about the quality of your water, discuss this Brita faucet filter with your doctor before buying it. Put it on your faucet; and enjoy!!! "

"Overall, the Brita faucet filter is a good product. Per gallon, the cost is comparable to the pitcher style filter. The main drawback to the Brita filter system (faucet or pitcher) in the US, you have no choice but to send the used filters to the landfill. I understand European countries do not allow this and have forced Brita to adopt a filter recycling program. I hate to incur on Brita's profits, but I would highly appreciate such a program here in the United States."
