Product Reviews of Clear Flow Long Life Disposable Bath Faucet Filter, Chrome
Product Review: Great Invention!
Summary: 5 Stars
This bathroom water filter is AWESOME! Our children are always thirsty while upstairs where we do not have filtered water. I was tired of running down the stairs to get filtered water from the kitchen or reluctantly letting them fill their cups with potentially dangerous contaminated water at the bathroom sink. The filter unit was easy to install (took about 2 minutes) and came with 2 rubber washers and attachements to ensure a proper fit for most bathroom sinks. There is a lever on the unit that when pulled forward turns on the water filter for drinking or teeth brushing. The filtered water flows through a small hole on the left side with a stream the same size you'd find on a fridge. When the lever is pushed back the filter turns off (for wandwashing, etc) and the water is streamed through a normal size bathroom sink aerator in the middle of the unit. The aerator is quiet and actually flows much nicer than the aerator that came off our sink for the filter installation. A small green light turns on to indicate when the filter is in use (and the instructions say it will turn red when the filter is expired).
Before purchasing this filter I wanted to know that it actually filtered out contaminants, but I couldn't find that information on the Amazon listing. I found an article [...] about Clear Flow's filters that states "All product units are certified by NSF International to reduce many common contaminants affecting the taste and healthfulness of water, such as chlorine, lead, cysts, mercury, asbestos and more." Our bathroom water now tastes great, and at a minimum I can tell that the chlorine has been filtered out. I like that these disposable filters are more eco-friendly than the large replaceable filters in water pitchers. Also, the little unit is very portable and would be easy to travel with and install on any other sink.
The Clear Flow Long Life Disposable Bath Filter fit our needs perfectly and the sale price on Amazon was great! I highly recommend this product to anyone who desires to have filtered water in their bathroom for drinking or brushing teeth. I give this handy invention an A+.
Product Review: Junk. Don't waste your money.
Summary: 1 Stars
After asking a question to one of the other reviews of this filter, I decided to buy it anyway. That was a mistake.
I figured I'd find out if the filter stopped working or if the light was faulty pretty easily because my water has a strong mineral taste and if the light came on but it still tasted fine it would be ok with me.
I bought this filter and a Culligan faucet filter at the same time. The Culligan has a filter that needs to be changed every 3 months or so. This one was supposed to last a year under regular use.
The Culligan was put on the kitchen faucet and is used for cooking and drinking by 4 people. This filter was put on one of two sinks in my master bathroom and used for about once daily drinking and maybe a little teethbrushing by one person only (not with the water left on), but nothing as water-consuming as hand washing or anything like that.
To me, the strong taste I was trying to remove was back within 2 weeks. Although the light stayed green. My husband kept using it. It has now been less than 3 months and the red light is on. As far as taste goes it failed in two weeks, as far as allegedly filtering it lasted less than 3 months; this thing fell far short of the claimed usefulness.
The Culligan, however, is still going strong on it's first filter.
I am very disappointed. Don't do what I did and decide that you'll see for yourself. This thing does not perform the way they claim it will. You will only be disappointed in the end.
I will say that it went on my faucet without a problem and doesn't leak at all. I hope it comes off just as easily since that's what's about to happen to this piece of garbage.
Product Review: Leaks and did not last as long as stated
Summary: 2 Stars
Not very impressed. Hangs low in the bathroom sink, lasted about 45 days and not even home that much. Also, leaked no matter what I tried to do.Product Review: Nice idea but it only lasts one month
Summary: 1 Stars
This product seems like a good idea, but instead of the year promised it lasted only one month. Don't bother trying to contact the company: their web site doesn't work and phone has been disconnected. Why is Amazon selling this rip-off product?
