 Cheaper by the 1-Pack?! August 29, 2010

I'm a died-in-the-wool Pur user. I have a Brita pitcher as well, which I was forced to buy when Pur had some kind of epic distribution failure and couldn't stock replacement filters here or any retailer that I could find.
The Brita pitcher is flimsy and cheaply made. Pur water - from Los Angeles DWP tapwater, at least - simply tastes better than Brita.
But here's a wacky thing: As of this writing, filters in 4-packs cost $1.50 each MORE than filters in 3- and 2-packs. Filters in one-packs are the best deal of all! They cost $0.60 less than 2- or -3 packs, and OVER $2.00 LESS per filter, than buying the 4-pack!
Crazy, isn't it? Sure wish I'd noticed that *before* I ordered that 4-pack, for an extra $8!!!
Do you see that, too? Or is this an example of Amazon's mythical Customer-specific pricing?
Anyway, caveat emptor, fellow Pur users!
 Filters clog up shortly after purchase August 16, 2010

I bought the pitcher version of PUR although we have very clean water here, to get rid of the fluoride taste. After 2 weeks, no water filtering through anymore. When I called their customer service, I got promised a filter replacement, and instead they sent me a 2 for 1 coupon. Bought a new filter, which clogged up again after only 10 days. What is going on here? Their faucet version holds up to 6 months if you take the filter out after 3 months and shake it. Not so with the pitcher!
Comparably Priced! August 15, 2010

I compared prices in regular stores and online and found the prices to be a tad cheaper on Amazon once the taxes and shipping were factored in. I would purchase this product again.
 Safely filter out the bad stuff and get clean, fresh water. August 12, 2010

Tap water has a most unpleasant taste. At least to me. I like my water to be pure and fresh, good tasting. That's why I use PUR filters in my two pitchers. I love the taste of the water. It tastes better to me than bottled water. I fill up my Thermos with fresh water and take it with me when I go out. I've used other filters but feel safer with PUR. I'm never unhappy with the taste of the water that PUR filters provide.
Check around for the best price. I generally find Target has the lowest price and I can just go to the local store and buy what I need. No need to over pay.
Highly recommended.

Buy "Clear 2 O" instead August 3, 2010

Consumer Reports rates Clear 2 O much higher on quality and price. Part of the price problem may be that PUR has tacked on a mandatory welfare donation for Africa. If you agree that such donations should be up to the individual, buy the more effective, less expensive Clear 2 O!
