LG LT700P
Score: 75/100
Brita Elite
Score: 72/100Rankings
The LG LT700P is a genuine OEM horizontal replacement water filter designed for select LG refrigerators, offering certified reduction of chlorine, lead, and pharmaceuticals. While it guarantees fit and performance, its 200-gallon capacity is modest, and it lacks compatibility with certain ENERGY STAR models. It is ideal for owners of compatible LG refrigerators who prioritize OEM reliability and certified contaminant reduction.
The Brita Elite Faucet Mount is a certified, tool-free filtration system that effectively removes 99% of lead and over 60 contaminants from standard kitchen faucets. Its main trade-off is a slow flow rate of 0.7 GPM and incompatibility with pull-out faucets, which limits its utility for some households. It is best suited for renters or budget-conscious users with standard faucets who prioritize lead reduction and ease of installation.
