I just received my water filter and deployed it last night. I love that you don't have to run it under the water for several minutes or even filter it several times before it's ready to drink. It's incredibly well-made and the filter is full-sized, but still fits in a generous but packable size. Based on the specs, it filters out the vast majority of the nefarious stuff and I'm sure better and more economical than a Britta which on a good day, barely filters out chlorine. I liked it so much just after taking it out of the box that I ordered another one.
And when I emailed to clarify the shipping status, I got a response right away.
Very happy with both my AquaCera gravity water filter and Epic Water's terrific service.
