Product review (1 stars): Best price I've found is on Amazon
Have been buying these from Amazon for years now...makes me wonder...
I have a zero water pitcher. With this pitcher came a TDS meter. You're supposed to replace those filters when the meter reads 006.
So, just recently my fridge filter light came on and I decided to test the water. It read around 160 which is the same as my tap water. Seeing that the fridge filter was doing nothing anymore, I went ahead and ordered a replacement from 1 Stop Camera & Appliances. Even though I get my drinking water from the zero water pitcher, I still use the fridge's ice maker. Now, it's been a few days since the new filter has been installed and I should mention that we cycled the water as recommended. I just thought to test the water from the fridge filter water today. I wanted to see how much the filter improves on the tap water. Well, to my surprise, the water from the fridge with the "new" filter has somehow made the water worse. I've repeatedly tested water from all three sources, the pitcher, the tap and the fridge. The pitcher reads 000 every time, the tap reads around 160 and the fridge reads around 600. Yes, 600. Not sure how this is, but the "new" fridge filter has worsened my tap water by almost 5 times.
I've just contacted the seller. We'll see how that goes. At this point I'm left with just two possible conclusions...either I received a very defective filter, or they're selling used filters. Either way, I won't be purchasing these filters on Amazon anymore.
This really has me wondering about the quality of some of the other products I purchase on Amazon.
