Pour a glass of fresh, clean, filtered water without opening the refrigerator or a bottle with this countertop water-filtration system. Attractively housed in brushed stainless steel, the 1-1/2-gallon unit dispenses 800 mL of cold water (44 degrees F) or room-temperature filtered water. Better than bottled water, the countertop filtration system reduces contaminants that can alter taste and purity. It reduces chlorine (97.5 percent), mercury (92.8 percent), benzene (84.1 percent), cadmium (96.6 percent), copper (85.0 percent), tetrachloroethylene (92.5 percent), and toluene (89.8 percent). The included filter lasts for about 80 gallons or three to four months of average household use. Other details include a flip-top lid for convenient filling, a removable water tank for filling at the sink, a blue LED "water-ready" indicator light, a single spigot, and simple push-button controls. Weighing about 11 pounds, the water-filtration system measures 9 by 9 by 16 inches and carries a three-year limited warranty.
