The ZeroWater 22-Cup Ready-Read 5-Stage Water Filter Dispenser delivers crisp, clean-tasting water with excellent filtration, though the large size may be cumbersome for smaller spaces.

It leaks
Bought this dispenser because it is the only one that would fit how I wanted in my fridge. Inserted spout as directed, but leaked around the spigot. I had a larger one that was older model and it worked great for years. It's just too big. I see in the reviews I am not the only one who had this issue.Can you advise if you are working on a fix for the leak issue?

Works well, but maintenance cost is high
I purchased this filter 2 weeks ago and for the first two weeks, my husband and I were very happy with the product. It definitely does what it says it does and provides good filtration.

However, because I live in a High TDS zone, I have to replace the filter already after less than 2 weeks of usage. Overnight, the water coming through the filter became sour. While I...

Response from Staples :
Thank you for contacting ZeroWater. We empathize with your situation and we have spoken with many customers with this issue. Some of our customers have used other, traditional filtration systems, such as a Culligan Whole House Filter to treat the water prior to filtering through a Zero Water filter. In many cases that will cut the TDS level down enough to make the use of ZeroWater more economical. There is very little we can do to extend the life of our filters when the water supply is so high in TDS. Our filters are designed to remove over 99% of dissolved solids; in areas with high TDS readings filter life will be short.

22 cup ready-read pitcher
22 cup ready-read has been wonderful. I have been filtering water like crazy. The smell of the chlorine coming out of my kitchen facet turns my stomach. I have been filtering the water for our cats to drink and it seems like they go through this water a lot quicker than regular tap.

Very disappointing product
Filtering time is very slow. Even on day 1 of use, water cannot drop completely to the container. Within 1 week of use, water drips extremely slow.
Filter life is very short. Within 3 weeks of use (around 20 gallons water), filtered water starts with fishy smell and tastes especially when the water is hot. Municipal water is 160ppm at my city. As per the TDS chart on y...

Response from Staples :
Thank you for contacting ZeroWater. From time to time the filter can develop an air lock, some little air pockets or air bubbles that get trapped down inside the filter. Typically this is an easy and quick fix, simply remove the filter from the container and unscrew it from the tray. Then hold the filter sideways/horizontal and grip the filter very tightly and shake the filter with some good force side to side and back and forth 8 to 10 times. This will loosen the filter media and break the air lock. In order to avoid a change in the taste of the water it is important to test the water regularly and change the filter when the digital meter reads 006.

Not Filtering
The problem I am having is with the filters. I put the water in the reservoir to be filtered and it never goes down into the filter, it just sits there for hours. I put water in the reservoir before I went to bed only to wake up 8 hours later and most of the water was still in the reservoir. I have two Zero water filtering systems, 22 and 32 cups, and they both have ...

Slowest Filter Ever
It filters the water as advertised. Tastes great! However, waiting for the water to filter takes an extremely long time. If you have more than two people in your home I do not recommend this filter.

How Could filling it take This Long?
I was so Excited about this purchase..I’ve been wanting a Filtered water dispenser. But The Amount of time it’s taking to fill up this 22 cup dispenser is Mind Boggling. I’ve been at it for 25 minutes and it’s still Not full. This Photo is 30 Minutes and I’ts still Not full! This is America. Things don’t work this way? It’s very very weird. I’m gonna have to return it.....

Not What I Hoped
This isn't as good as I had hoped. The water still has a strange odor, though it tastes fine. And the gauge that comes with the jug doesn't work. I put it in the water and press the button. The gauge numbers spin around, but they always come back to all zeros. This is before the water goes through filtration, so it should be showing some other readings. Can't figure it ...

Handy TDS reader
Super easy to assemble and use. My favorite part is the TDS reader so I was able to compare the tap water to after it was filtered. It also allows me to keep a check on my water so I know the filter is good.

I really like how one is able to continuously test the water whenver you want. The issue I have is that the water does not taste very good to me after it goes through the filter. It still has an after taste, and do not know what to do about that. I have to wonder if its possible to remove everything, using this system. I know the water is better than it was out of the t...
