PUR Plus Horizontal
Score: 80/100Rankings
The PUR PLUS Faucet Mount Water Filtration System is a certified faucet-mounted filter designed to reduce 70 contaminants, including lead, PFAS, and chlorine, while enhancing taste through Mineral Core Technology. It features a one-click tool-free installation on standard faucets, an on/off lever for switching between filtered and unfiltered modes, and a filter change indicator based on 100 gallons or 90 days of use. It is best suited for households with standard kitchen faucets seeking on-demand filtered water without pitchers.
The Brita Elite Faucet Mount (White) is a BPA-free, faucet-mounted filtration device that provides on-demand filtered water with a 3-way handle. It offers certified lead reduction but lacks specific flow rate data and has compatibility limitations with non-standard faucets. It is ideal for daily kitchen use in older homes or municipal water systems.
