Aquasana AQ-5300+.55 3-Stage Max Flow Under Sink Water Filter with Brushed Nickel Faucet

This was easy to install. The tee valve could have been a better quality as there were metal shavings in it. Cleaned it out and no other burrs observed so used it. The tee valve does not have a shutoff. You need to read the installation steps to find what size drill bit to use to make the hole in the counter. It would have been nice to have a legend to tell you what specific tools and sizes to use as a quick reference or for those that may be a little less technically inclined. Otherwise, its easy to install. Flavour of water is great. I always liked my jug water filter from a major brand but this is way better. Ran 20 minutes after install before use per instructions. No weird aftertaste and no odours. Added a tee to connect my fridge water and ice maker. Same great taste from fridge as well and I don’t need to use the fridge filter. Has the most certifications that I saw for an under counter filter system. Highly recommended!

I received two of these filters. The first one was defective on installation and leaked right away. The second replacement filter installed easily and worked well for about a month. We liked the taste of the water and the flow rate. Unfortunately the the filter broke in the middle of the night and flooded water all over the kitchen floor causing damage to my hardwood flooring as well as leaking through my basement ceiling. I now have a thousand dollars in damage. Do not trust this water filter!!

Todo funcionó correcto hasta el momento que tuve que cambiar filtros por primera vez. Después del simple cambio tuve una fuga grande y no hay forma de arreglar mas que con reemplazo de parte. Pero al contactar a soporte de Aquasana (que tardan hasta 4 dias en responder) la respuesta final es que no envian fuera de EUA. Si no dan soporte fuera de ese país, ¿para que lo venden fuera de EUA?

Paid $245 in Jan 2025. Paid a few hundred dollars to a licensed plumber to install. Plumber is very experienced and does work for us regularly. It worked fine for 18 months. Replaced filters every six months without issue. Replaced filters at 18 month mark and it stopped working a few days later. Isolated the problem to the first filter in the series. Amazon was nice enough to send a second set of filters for free. The same problem occurred. It worked for a few days, but then the system stopped working. The only way water would flow is if you loosened the first filter by 1/8th of a turn, but then it also leaked. So the system is inoperable. Save yourself the time and money and look elsewhere.
