Product review (2 stars): You get what you pay for
We enjoy pretty good water quality in San Jose so we thought we could get away with the inferior filtering rating of this model to save a few bucks.  But the filtration was really inadequate.  Lots more hard water deposits were left in glasses and vases if the water was allowed to evaporate, and it wasn't long before the water started tasting like it came from a garden hose.

We're sticking with the GE SmartWater filters from now on.
