After over 10 years ownership of our Seagull IV water filter, I've just had my second e-mail customer service contact. As in our first contact, the response has been immediate (one day) and effective. The product is outstanding -- probably the best home water filter available.

Water Filter - Multipure CBVOCSC Countertop Water Filter Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)(I would give this 4.5 stars if I could, since the negatives are minor.) I've had this for a couple of weeks now, and here's my experience so far:
Pluses: It was fairly easy to install, and the installation seems robust - no leakages, which was our main issue with a faucet-mount filter we had tried earlier. Looks good, I like the stainless steel better than some of the plastic casings I saw before I bought this one. The water tastes really good. I can only assume that the filter is removing the nasty stuff it claims to remove, if it is there in my tap water in the first place. The main reason I filter my tap water is to get rid of the Chlorine taste, I'm not as paranoid about tap water as some people are. I am glad to get rid of my "Pur" pitcher which I now fear has been a source of BPA all these years :-). It's nice to have on-demand filtered water instead of having to fill the pitcher and wait for the water to trickle down (since it's of course inevitable that you'll find the pitcher empty just when you have a desperate need for water, and the filter would have just started slowing down too!).
Minuses - I wish the flexible pipe was a little longer, so I could position the filter further away from the sink. As it is, it sits about a foot away from the edge of my sink so it could still get splashed. This won't affect the water of course, it just means I'll have to wipe the shiny stainless steel casing down more frequently.
It would have been nice if the attachment to the faucet was designed to be easily removed and re-attached. That way I could remove it and put it away when the cleaning lady is at work, or if I'm concerned that some visitor is going to make a mistake with the switch and run hot water through the filter. Because that's what I live in fear of - someone running hot water and destroying the filter before its time is up.
In spite of the above (minor) quibbles, I would recommend this filter to anyone who does not have the ability to install an under-sink filter. A HUGE improvement over the Brita/Pur type faucet-mount or pitcher-type filters.

Insinkerator CWT-00 Chilled Water Tank Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)My wife is what they call a water snob and we purchased the InSinkerator instant hot, water chiller and 201 filter. It took a couple days for the water to cycle several times but after that she can not be happier. All of the instructions said it would take a few cycles for this to happen and they were correct. We could not be happier.

With 200-degree-Fahrenheit near-boiling water available at your fingertips, you'll get more done in less time.

An InSinkErator hot water dispenser does more than provide filtered hot water for preparing instant foods and beverages, it is also an incredible kitchen appliance. Use it to loosen stubborn jar lids, prepare pasta, warm baby food, clean crusty pans, cream butter, melt chocolate, remove fruit skins for pies, clean cheese graters, scoop ice cream, cut cheese, and warm pancake syrup. These are just a few examples of the many uses of an instant hot water dispenser.
Chilled Water Instantly, How Does That Work?Water from the supply line goes into the tank and is cooled anywhere from 33 degrees to 45 degrees Fahrenheit, depending on the setting you choose on the front-mounted temperature adjustment on the tank. When the cold side valve is activated, the cold water goes from the tank and flows out of the dispenser's spout. Release the handle, and the Chilled Water Tanks' valve will close automatically, so the cold water will stop flowing.
Easy to Install!The InSinkErator Chilled Water Tank features quick-connect fittings for easy installation. It also features an adjustable temperature gauge, so you can adjust the water to your liking. Once connected to an InSinkErator cold-only dispenser or hot/cold water dispenser (sold separately) and optional Filtration System, this compact 1/3-gallon tank will give you instant access to filtered cold water--up to 1.0 gallons an hour!
An Environmentally Friendly ChoiceToday, many environmental enthusiasts say the packaging and shipping associated with bottled water that uses fossil fuels has a negative environmental impact. According to published reports, of the billions of water bottles Americans purchase each year about 80 percent end up in landfills. Unfortunately, buried water bottles can take hundreds of years to biodegrade. With an InSinkErator water dispenser and the Chilled Water Tank, the need for bottled water becomes obsolete, as it delivers ice-cold drinking water at just pennies a glass. A great alternative to bottled water--less cost and less waste.
