Product review (1 stars): Poor Performance but they're cheap!!!!
Installed the first filter but after following the instructions precisely, I find the water filters through very quickly and the water doesn't even taste as good as that through the filter in my refrigerator.  There's a definite chlorine taste and smell that wasn't there with the name brand filters. I agree with others who question the ability to filter effectively when the water passes through so quickly.  I returned 5 of the 6 filters, unopened and got $8.40 of the $18.40 I paid back.  DON"T WASTE YOUR MONEY TRYING THESE.  They may be cheap, but if they don't work, why did you buy the MAVEA pitcher.
