Tools and Hardware Reviews of 3M Filtrete 3US-PS01 Under-Sink Advanced Water Filtration System
Customer Review: Installed fast, great tasting water
Summary: 4 Stars
This is my second water filter and I chose this one because it was cheaper than the GE model I have in our kitchen.
Installation was easy and the push fittings only leaked a little because i cut the tubing badly. Once it was cut properly it does not leak.
The water tastes great (the same as the GE filter we have), flow rate is reduced somewhat but it is sufficent.
Customer Review: Like it a lot, easy to change filter

Installed this filter myself, connected to a single drinking water tapWatts 116023 Standard Faucet, Chrome which I purchased for this filter installation, and am very happy with the filter's operation after 48 hours of use. One small complaint would be that you may well be making a trip to the hardware store to find a connector for the blue tubing 3M used, to hook it up to your existing plumbing. The provided connector would not fit my new (Watts) faucet. In order to connect it to that Watts faucet, I had to find a brass compression fitting adapter to go from 3M's blue tubing to smaller tubing yet (also from hardware store), to a compression fitting on the new faucet. (I did not want to set this up to filter ALL cold water coming out of our kitchen faucet, which probably would have been easier.) It would seem that 3M could have made this a little more universal by having a connector on the filter housing that fits a standard water supply hose, rather than the push-in tubing connector and tubing they provided. However, I will say the push-in tubing is super easy to install and seems reliable. I saw a drip or two of water around the output tubing initially but it has stopped. The filtered water tastes good (neutral) to my family and we're happy to be upgraded from our former PUR filter which was mounted on the faucet itself and always in the way it seemed. Changing the 3M filter itself is very easy; just push up a bit and turn (same thing to put it on, in reverse). I am accustomed to having to use a lot of force to unscrew the former PUR filter and also when I change our whole-house water filter, so this well-engineered method is welcome.Customer Review: Love the Under-sink filtration

These are really easy to install. Had our plumber do the first one and we did the other two. So glad to get the PUR off the faucet!Customer Review: Super Easy Installation -- Water is taste-free!

In Vegas our water is super-chlorinated. Forcing us to use a brita for cooking and coffee. I investigated other inline filters, but most of them required a separate tap installed -- since we have a granite countertops, this seemed like an extreme fix. finally, here is a filter that simply sits in your cold water line -- giving you filtered water to your existing cold water tap. It works great -- the chlorine taste and smell is gone. It does slow down the cold water flow minimally. It is no big deal, and hardly noticeable. Installation was a snap. I would absolutely recommend it.Customer Review: Very good filter

I got sick of my PUR filters springing leaks so I decided to give this one a try. Installation was very easy and the water quality is very good. Can't say much for durability yet, but if it holds up it is a worthwile purchase.
