1. Affordable
2. Works perfectly
3. After 6 years of use, I can say that it really does its job because whether you put water in the espresso machine or in a kettle, it doesn't leave any residue or anything.
4. At first, you need to shake it and then screw it on and let it run for about 5 minutes, and it's ready, not hot water

7 years ago, the previous filters lasted for 4 months. From the pack I bought, two of them had an unpleasant smell from the beginning. In other words, the quality of the filters changed so much over time that it is preferable to drink directly from the tap. I no longer recommend it

We have been using it for decades. I made the purchase as a gift. It has good construction and very good quality for the money you spend.

I live in East Attica where the water is terrible for some reason (chlorine, salts). I had a Defort filter before and now I have this one which is very good for its price. The water changed its taste (you would think you added sugar, that's how much difference it made in the salts). How well does it filter? Let me tell you one thing: my kettle has never needed cleaning again in the three years I have it because it no longer collects salts from the filtered water. The same goes for the espresso machine. None at all!

I would like to inform potential buyers that there are two types of replacement filters, Uni 3A and Uni 3B, which are specifically for cases with high salt content.

P.S. 1 Do not remove the flow valve from the filter. The flow increases significantly and the filtering is not correct.

P.S. 2 Do not turn the selector switch with the faucet open. The switch will be damaged and water will splash.

A great filter that does its job perfectly, and for the 15 euros that I bought it with 2 filters, I don't need anything else. The filter lasts for 3 months, and then you can get another one for 4 euros.

I had bought it as a trial to see what it says and I can't say that I was crazy about it but neither that I was disappointed. Its capabilities are to do a light filtering and to clean the water from the smell of chlorine... However, you also have to make some concessions on your part. Like letting the water flow very slowly so that the activated carbon can do its job and of course, don't expect the filter to last for 3 months as the packaging says. By doing the above mentioned, it does the job and lasts for about 2 months at most. As soon as you smell chlorine again, it needs to be thrown away and the new filter costs around 4€. I have temporarily settled, but definitely at some point I will get something better...

While the flow is very good, the water quality is not good.
No matter how cheap this filter is, the only thing that matters in filters is the water quality.
Anyway, better than nothing...
