PUR CRF-950Z Review
Me and my family have been using Pur filters for over five years and we love them. Leave it to NSF to see what they do filter out and what they don’t, but Pur makes water taste clean and refreshing. We’ve been using them in Chicago, Los Angeles, Ann Arbor and Baton Rouge, and in all these places water from Pur filter would taste better then almost any brand of bottled water we tried.
Fortunately, we’ve stocked up on “old-fashioned” filters with freshness monitors right before Costco stopped selling them and switched to Brita. When our stockpile ran out we had no choice but to get “new and improved” kind. While there is no discernible difference in either speed of filtration, or quality of the outcome, we really miss the monitor feature.
Well, the box says that each filter may be used for about 40 gallons of water, and that seems to be in line with our usage of old filters. So now we going to guesstimate how much water we use each week, and change the filters accordingly.

We used the Britta system for almost 9 years to filter our nasty tasting local water. We were becoming dissatisfied with the “floating” carbon particles with each filter change and found that the filters were not taking out all of the bad taste. We decided to give the PUR countertop system a try – about the same price as Britta to set up – and were amazed at the better quality of filtered water! The taste is great and no more carbon floaters from the filters. The only “complaint” would be that these filters are harder to find and more expensive than Britta. The extra cost is worth it.

When PUR changed the style of the replacement cartridge, they didn’t fit the PUR Canister. Since then, they have updated the cartridges and they fit perfectly (be sure to get the CRF 950z). No, they don’t have the cute little indicator to tell you to change your filter. But here’s a clue, people. When it takes longer for the water in the upper chamber to filter into the lower chamber, it’s time to change the filter because it’s getting clogged. I’ve been using the same canister for 12 years and have had to replace only the filters periodically. This unit gets used quite a bit and it goes through a filling every other day. The spigot is in great shape as well as the housing. I’ve given these as gifts to my friends and family. All are surprised at the difference it has made in the taste of their water, whether it’s tap or well water. I have very hard water. Without filtration from the PUR, you can taste the iron, smell the sulphur, and see the calcium. With the PUR, no smells or taste. It’s such a great product and works so well, I’m almost afraid they’ll discontinue it.

I have had a Pur water cooler for about three years now, back when the filters were flat on top with the little gauge that showed you when to change the filter. I love Pur water products but it you have anything besides the pitcher, I would not buy these online. Proctor & Gamble changed the design to the one currently pictured (with the very high domed top) and they DO NOT fit the coolers. I am pretty sure they are okay with pitchers though. Over a year later, the redesigned filters are FINALLY making their way to the stores, but given my recent experience buying filters online (through another retailer) there are now three different styles floating (the flat topped filter, the one pictured, and the brand new one) around in stores’ inventories, and I think they all have the same item numbers. The new design is still domed, but much shorter, plus there are three very distinct holes on the top, which you can clearly see on the packaging. Also, I was told by Pur customer service that the filter must have a lot number, stamped on the bottom, starting in the 8000s. So, if you are trying to purchase these filters for your cooler, go to a store: you cannot rely on pictures and item numbers, at least in my experience. Also, many reviewers seem to be upset because there is no longer a “gauge” to tell you when to change the filter. I never go by this- use common sense and change the filters when the water starts to taste bad.
