I bought this Aquasana water filter system for my kitchen sink. For some reason, I was sent (and charged for) 3 units. Obviously, I contacted Amazon and made arrangements to return two units for refund.In the meantime, I hired a plumber to install the unit. The plumber is a licensed, insured and an experienced plumber. He had the worst time installing the filters. Installing the unit was very basic - no problem there. However when he put in the filters they leaked. Because I had two extra units. He tried those filter (I was willing to take the hit). After trying 5 different filters (on a 3 filter unit) he was finally able to get it to stop leaking.Fast forward 7 months…I knew I had to change the filters every 6 months. As luck would have it, I had a plumber out to fix an unrelated issue and I asked ‘can you change these filters for me as long as your here’. This was not the same plumber as did the install. I had purchased new filters last month and had them ready for install. This plumber also had the same issue as the first plumber…the new filters leaked. He couldn’t tell what the issue really was, because once the filters are in the housing, you can’t see them. He said they went in easy, and shouldn’t be leaking. Finally out of frustration, I said just disconnect it and I’d contact Aquasana since it’s still under warranty.After speaking with Julie at Aquasana tech support, I was told that she could not refund my money, only send replacement parts…which is impossible since I (nor the plumber) can tell what’s leaking. I was asked to take a video of the leak and email it to them??? What? I told them no, that’s ridiculous. I’d have to call the plumber back out to hook it up again, to take a video of dripping water? Riiiight!Julie at Aquasana said I needed to contact Amazon, since that’s where I bought the unit. I told her it was at the Aquasana Store on Amazon. She said she has no authority for returns, even under warranty and to go thru Amazon. The funny thing is, Amazon doesn’t give me an option to return this unit…it does refer me to the toll free number to Aquasana (the same number where I spoke with Julie). Basically the round around.So I’m now out my money. I don’t have a water filter and I still get to hire a plumber to remove the unit (he did disconnect it from the water, but it’s still under my sink, and the small faucet for the filter has to be removed and I need to put in a soap dispenser or something to fill that hole in the counter top.Thanks Aquasana for standing by your product, which has been problematic from the start, thanks for helping us out when finances are tight. By not offering a full refund to a defective product and not giving a second thought to me paying a plumber AGAIN to come out to remove there defective machine.Beware buying from Aquasana. The product I have is defective, still under manufacturer warranty and they will not refund me. That’s just wrong.

The battery should be easy to remove and replace any time

I wish we had installed these years ago. The water flow is great and the faucet is simple and well built. This was a little tricky to install due to the layout of our under sink area but I imagine it will be simpler for most. This definitely beats pitcher filters and on faucet filters. As it is hooked directly to the cold water line, hot water does not pass through the filter as well. I suggest ordering replacement filters from Aquasana as you get a discount when you sign up for the filter program which is non-binding. For some reason the unit itself with the spigot does not ship within Canada (read higher customs, etc) from Aquasana.

This was easy to install. The tee valve could have been a better quality as there were metal shavings in it. Cleaned it out and no other burrs observed so used it. The tee valve does not have a shutoff. You need to read the installation steps to find what size drill bit to use to make the hole in the counter. It would have been nice to have a legend to tell you what specific tools and sizes to use as a quick reference or for those that may be a little less technically inclined. Otherwise, its easy to install. Flavour of water is great. I always liked my jug water filter from a major brand but this is way better. Ran 20 minutes after install before use per instructions. No weird aftertaste and no odours. Added a tee to connect my fridge water and ice maker. Same great taste from fridge as well and I don’t need to use the fridge filter. Has the most certifications that I saw for an under counter filter system. Highly recommended!

Excelente calidad del agua, muy buen sabor. Fácil de instalar.

Pros: easy to install, water quality is fine to drink. Before Aquasana I was using Brita over the counter filter and I was getting 160-170 TDS. With Aquasana I am getting almost similar TDS (around 160-170) which is still good. But keep in mind that this filter is not built only to reduce TDS. This filter does what it is designed for. My Tap water was little heavier (230-250 TDS). Probably, just a carbon filter would have been sufficient. But Aquasana 5300.56 is a good affordable filter and two additional filters along with carbon filter won’t do any harm. I, therefore, decided to get this filter. I have read reviews that connections leak after couple of years. I will have to wait and see (I will update if it leaks). So far it is good.Cons: nothing much. Flow rate is a bit low but this is not a kitchen faucet. I found the flow ok for a drinking water faucet. Only challenge for me was to drill a hole in my steel sink and tightening the faucet nut under the sink because it was hard to reach. For drilling I used step drill bit and it was quick. For tightening the nut, I tried basin wrench and needle plier. The plier worked in my case.
