Product review (2 stars): aquacrest water filter replacement for mavea
I have no problem using generic products if they perform well.  The aquacrest is not a good substitute for the mavea filter.  Lot of prep work before using it.  Directions say it will last a month where I get 2 months from Mavea brand.  I didn't get a month of good tasting water from this filter.  the  az city I live in has well water so the water tastes musty or muddy  so the taste of the filtered water only lasts a couple weeks. I can get 2 months of good tasting water from the Mavea.  It is not worth the reduced price to get this substitute. Will be buying Mavea from now on.
