Product review (5 stars): This thing will make your water taste better than bottled water
YES the filter is expensive and YES it is worth it. This thing will make your water taste better than bottled water, and even if you do replace the thing once every 6 months, it's a reasonable price for keeping who-knows-what out of your water. Everyone has their things they "splurge" on, and I recommend that you add this to your splurge list if you haven't already.
