| | | Which water filter do ya’ll use?
My water tastes terrible despite having a Brita pitcher filter. What are some good recommendations for water filters that eliminate the bad taste?

It may be a slight overkill for most places, but if you really hate the taste of your local water, then a proper reverse osmosis system will certainly help. Just consider the cost and don't forget to factor in renewables, otherwise you may one day end up drinking distilled water, which is not just tasteless but also unhealthy in a long run.

Do you have a water filter on the main supply? If so the filter is supposed to be changed every year. Many people leave it for years.
My Bosch fridge also has a filter in it for the drinking water outlet. That one is meant to be changed every 6 months but I leave it for much longer.

There are many best water filter available on internet. But I would recommend you to use Aquasana EQ-600. I am also using it from past 2 years and it is working fabulous.
