The water tastes clean, and being in refrigerator is always cold. Suggest you measure your refrigerator and select space for it before you order it. It just fits between shelves beside the crisper door in our refrigerator, all... more info

The first time I drank (Washington DC area) tap water that had been filtered in this PUR Dispenser I knew I had made the right choice -- it tasted WONDERFUL and refreshing. I also felt better about NOT having to buy all... more info
