These filters are excellent!! Not only do they remove many chemicals from water, they are rated well at removal of heavy metals and lead! Plus, having it directly on the faucet means having fresh water whenever I need it.

First, Maxion filters come in Gold color foil packaging; these were in silver foil. Next, shaking the filters there is 'NO' mineral contents that should make sound similar to shaking sand in a sealed jar. The printed matter on the outside box has different font types and size of fonts and spaces reduce near ends of sentences/paragraphs. Additionally, as soon as you install and turn on the water, the flow rate is extreme (real filters restrict the water flow immediately and for first gallon of use. Also, what should be a slight grayish discoloration of the initial water from filter, this product produced a 'dark black' liquid for very short time.

I don’t know if these are the same as other PUR filters. Usually PUR filters let water out very slowly, especially when you are running them for the first time. These let the water run through very quickly. I also noticed when i first turned the filter on the water was purple for a second (which has never happened on other PUR filters i have bought). Each filter is individually wrapped and the water tastes fine, just slightly skeptical they are the original product as the boxes that hold the filters are held shut with staples as if they had been repackaged. They could be authentic and filtering effectively, but I’m not sure I trust them.

The boxes these filters came in were in terrible shape, making it appear that maybe some knock off filters were sent. The filters are black. Originals were blue. The water pressure passing through the filter is much higher than the originals were. That to me, makes it seem that the water is not being filtered properly. I cant prove that though. The water taste is not as good as that from original filters. I will use anyway, but I am not convinced these are PUR RF9999 filters.

THE WATER DOES TASTE BETTER, BUT, THESE FILTERS GO BAD REALLY FAST AND DON'T LAST A 100 GALLONS. THE BEST I GOT WAS 6 WEEKS AND THE WORST WAS 9 DAYS. TRIED LETTING A FILTER DRY OUT FOR A COUPLE WEEKS AND THE INDICATOR LIGHT FLASHED GREEN. NOT SURE WHAT TO THINK ABOUT THAT. WOULD BE NICE TO KNOW IF THE CARBON IS STILL GOOD AFTER HOUSING FLASHES RED AND FILTER IS STILL GOOD IF DRIED-OUT.
