- Very light. however it becomes heavy when you start using it as the water filled the filters. super easy installation. taste great. the water taste smooth and no weird acidity or anything. worth the price and i think this is the way to keep your commitment lower without going for monthly coway or cuckoo. good taste and good price.
- I wish the tube is a bit longer.
- You can scan the QR code on the plastic packaging of the coloured sticks, it will show you how to use it.

- Very good water filtration with 4 nsf qualification, nice taste. Items needed just a 13mm drill bits and add on a 3/8 union connector. Seller was nice and helpful. Will recommend to ppl who need clean and safe water.
- Texted Aquasana via whatapp for assistance on a Saturday (30/5). Got hold of an installer and he came around on Sunday (31/5). Got it fixed. Thx to vendor and installer for going the extra-mile on weekends.

I not happy with my current Aquasana type water filter (AQ5300). Very slow water flow rate and the filter seems not so dirty after 1 year. I thinking installing a pre filter and a master filter before this filter.
Oct 2019:
Installed Aquasana AQ-4000. I noticed after I washed my hand, it felt slippery at first but after 10 mins ok.
Taste : very smooth, no weird taste
Smell : no smell at all
Installation : very easy, 10 y/o kid also can do
