Product review (3 stars): In other words it is only good to improve taste of the water
This filter is only NSF/ANSI 42 compliant where genuine filter is NSF 42 & 53 certified. In other words it is only good to improve taste of the water, but it does not make it safe if you are concerned about lead or other contamination. I take 2 starts because product description should be clear and honest about it.
Made in China.

* NSF/ANSI 42 is one of two main NSF standards that set the benchmark for evaluating safety and integrity of residential water filters. NSF/ANSI 42 establishes the minimum requirements for the certification of POU/POE filtration systems designed to reduce specific aesthetic or non-health-related contaminants (chlorine, taste, odor and particulates) that
may be present in public or private drinking water.

* NSF/ANSI 53 is the second NSF benchmark standard that addresses reduction claims for residential water filters. This standard establishes the minimum requirements for the certification of POU/POE filtration systems designed to reduce specific health-related contaminants, such as Cryptosporidium, lead, volatile organic chemicals (VOCs) and asbestos that may be present in public or private drinking water.
