I received the Kraus 2-stage carbon block under sink water filtration system with digital display monitor and couldn’t wait to get it installed.  The taste of the water is great.  Using this system to filter the water rids it of impurities and definitely helps improve the flavor of food or drink, from tea and coffee to soups, pastas, and salads.  I waited awhile to review so as to really see if I noticed a difference and I did.  Not only does the water look better but tastes better.  I haven’t used “tap” water to drink in years opting for the water from my refrigerator door but the taste of the water has improved so much I now can grab a glass of water right from the sink.  Love it
