Good filter replacement. Water tastes amazing. Took one star off as sometimes it does not let water flow through
Does it job well enough however compared to the original filter this one has a hard time letting water flow every now and then and I have to empty the water jug and jiggle the filter a bit so its contents settle better.Water tastes amazing. The tap water we have at our place has a metallic taste to it and a chlorine smell. However this filter makes it crystal clear and tasty (if water can be called tasty). Basically the water has no smell or odd taste after is filtered. We use the filter heavily as we are 4 adults in the house and this lasts for about 40 days. It still filters after that however you can sense the change in the water and the pH tester will say the same. However if used normally I think it can probably last 60 days or more.

Unsatisfactory Water Flow!
I bought the original filter and jug a few months back, a bit more expensive than others but thought I would try it. The water quality is great but the filters are a bit hit & miss in respect of flow output! This most current filter fitted on 3.1.18 has been appalling, I carried out all the initial soaking and shaking but it still seems to slow right down to 'non-existent' flow! Have had to drain water from top reservoir twice now and shake/squeeze filter to regain flow. After I have finished the other filter I have will seriously consider buying another filter jug setup. Never had thee issues with the Brita jugs and filters I have had previously. These Phox filters are not cheap so should perform as good as other brands that are a lot cheaper!Update - 9/1/18: still appalling flow, have had to daily shake and squeeze filter to regain flow. Its unfortunate that I bought two replacement filters at the same time other wise I would have called it a day with this filter system. Also, because its not flowing well we have accidentally spilled the contents of the top reservoir onto the worktop, in one instance knocking a glass over! The reservoir had been filled about an hour previous! I really do not recommend these filters.Update 12/1/18 - Filter still poor performance. Contacted Phox who were very helpful. They have conformed there is a batch of filters that do not perform satisfactory. Also, they stated that there is a redesign in progress and new filters will be available in about 20 days. They are going to replace my poor flowing filter with a new type when they become available.

This filter makes great tasting water
I'm pretty skeptical about these things but the taste difference was just obvious at first go. At the time of review I'm on my second filter cartridge. I'd bought an extra one with my initial purchase in anycase. I do notice that the company gives you reminders around the 60 day mark that you may need to reorder this product. Being as forgetful as I am, I find that helpful.

... original kinetic water jug and filter I bought was brilliant, unfortunately this replacement filter did not work properly
The original kinetic water jug and filter I bought was brilliant, unfortunately this replacement filter did not work properly, the water would only trickle through at a ridiculously slow speed that rendered it useless...I don't know what the filters are like since they changed their name..

Compared to my old Brita filter I want to believe that the water tastes better and my wife agrees on the matter
With regards to the health benefits I cannot comment, I'm assuming that it's what is said out of the box. Compared to my old Brita filter I want to believe that the water tastes better and my wife agrees on the matter. My main issue is with the build of the filter. In the last filter change it took me 2 weeks of shaking, and tapping the filter until the water finally started going through at a steady pace. Before that it would stop or filter too slowly for use.

Filter does not filter.
My filter is clearly damaged, the water doesn't drain through properly and it tastes slightly off. I'm going to do a pH test but regardless I think I need to replace it. I cannot find an option to report the problem to the seller and I do not wish to package an already in use filter in order to get a refund. If the seller would like to contact me to get this resolved feel free.

Takes all the bad taste out of tap water and gives a smooth quality water product. The product was recommended to me and I have no regrets purchasing it. We have ceased buying bottled water since the arrival of the Kinetic and have no wish to go back to that way of our water supply. When we go out now for a few days we use the water from the jug to put into a chilled container. I have no hesitation in recommending the product.

I have it, but uncertain about filteration performance
I have had my Kinetic filter for under a year, this is my second x3 filters purchase. The Kinetic jug is good, robust and may be large to put in the fridge but I do keep mine out of fridge anyway. My concern is the filter, like many other consumers, I have had the water sticking and not filtering through problem and have put up with the trickle through. The filter I have in now runs through fast. My issue is whether the water is being filtered well and is the 5-stage filteration performing well? I have noticed my kettle scalling up and slight scum marks when making tea.My experience with Kinetic filtration:1. The taste is NOT as clear, 'clean' as bottled mineral water.2. The indicator for 'change filter' on the lid, no longer works /displays - Is this still under guarantee?3. I am uncertain about thorough filteration process (as described above)
