Great water filter that is SUPER easy to install. Makes city water taste great!
Drew✓ Verified Purchase•July 7, 2023
I've had great luck with my Epic pitcher filter, so I was pretty happy to see Epic offered an under-sink filter kit. I had modern plastic plumbing, so this Smart Shield was incredibly easy to install - really no need to pay the "professionals" to install it. Instructions were good, and they provide a link to a short YouTube video for a quick installation guide. I'm not incredibly practiced at plumbing, so the video was a Godsend. Once I had everything figured out, it only took me about 20 minutes of actual work to install the whole kit under my sink!
I have town-supplied water that runs through untold miles of iron pipes - this Epic Smart Shield does a great job of getting rid of that nasty metallic taste and reddish tinge to the water. Water tastes crisp and clean, makes AWESOME coffee! :) Now I feel much better about letting my four-year-old drink water from the tap. The filter eliminates a bunch of other crap too, they provide a list with the kit. Pretty impressive.
This is a great, super easy to install under-sink filter that does a great job at cleaning up your drinking water, and it frees up space in your fridge - no more pitchers! Filters last 7-9 months. Definitely worth every penny, thanks Epic!

Was skeptical but seems great!

So I've been using pitchers with filters for years. They seem to work well enough. After watching some documentaries about forever chemicals and pesticides in drinking water, I got a bit more paranoid. So I was either going reverse osmosis or carbon block filter. Reverse osmosis is definitely awesome but seemed a bit more trouble than it was worth for my home. Opted for carbon block but there are some many out there that haven't done clear testing on what it filters. Now Epic could be lying and I'm being duped but they have some clear documentation on filtration. So took a chance on this filter and company. I have no independent way of knowing that any "harmful" stuff in my city water is being cleaned out but I can say the taste is markedly better from the pitchers I've been using.
Install was pretty easy. I've had this installed for several weeks now and there are no signs of leakage. I also really like that the water comes out of my faucet. On top of all that, the value proposition is decent with only having to change out the filter once a year.

I purchased this product last week for my apartment. I live in NYC and the water quality is not too bad here, even though I only drink bottled water. I wanted to purchase a filter since I use cold brew and I thought that filtered water could be cheaper and more convenient than bottled water.
1) the filter: It arrived in two days Amazon (courtesy of prime membership) and the filter was packaged well. The instructions were easy and I had no difficulty installing it in 10 minutes. The quality of the water in my case is more peace of mind since I could not distinguish any issues before. Although I can say that the smell of chlorine is not there.
2) installation: I wanted to install a new, dedicated cold water faucet in my kitchen sink. But there was no part for this in the filter. The filter comes with all the parts if you plan to return the filtered water to the same faucet. I read the reviews and questions here and saw that other people had asked the same question. I emailed Epic explaining my issue. They responded very quickly and told me to send my address. Today I received everything I need to install and finish my project.
Conclusion: I would recommend Epic filters and products to anyone looking for such products. Their great products, easy to use and install parts and world class customer service deserve 5 stars. Great job Epic and I look forward to be a very happy return customer!

Believe It...Very Happy

I was looking at several different under the sink water filters to run to an isolated drinking water faucet. I chose Epic Smart Shield based upon a recommendation from a friend who manages several dozen single family home rentals in Omaha, Nebraska where the municipal water quality has had severe issues. He told me that he installed Epic Filters in all of his rentals because of its outstanding certification standards, ease of installation and the fact it is made in the USA. He also said that these filters have been installed for over six months now with zero problems. This was good enough for me. I purchased the Epic and it arrived within days in quality packaging. The installation would take about 20 minutes with a modern plumbing setup (finding and staging the tools will take as long), my installation took longer due to the fact I was running it to drinking water faucet as opposed to the existing water faucet requiring some additional parts. I could not be happier with the outcome. We live in a rural area of Wisconsin and are on a well with relatively good water quality so I didn't notice much difference in the water quality. However, I have piece of mind that I'm doing all I can to protecting my family's health by ensuring they have the safest drinking and cooking water, especially for our two young children and one on the way.
***UPDATE*** After having the Epic for several weeks now my wife says there is definitely a difference in the taste and mouth feel for the better (I still don't taste it but that doesn't really matter does it). Below are the parts & tools required to install the Epic to an isolated drinking faucet: Drinking Water Faucet, ~$25; Braided Stainless Flexible Water Tube, ~$8; Brass Splitter Connector, ~$7; Step Bit (for drilling into stainless steel sink), $45...Total was less than $100 half of which is the Step Bit. If you can borrow the Step Bit that would be best, it only took about 20 seconds to drill the holes through the inexpensive stainless sink.

BE SURE IT IS TURNED ALL THE WAY TO THE RIGHT (IT IS A VERY HARD RIGHT TURN WITH A SECOND CLICK)

Upon installation it leaked right away. The instructions given on how to fix the leak did not help. Using food safe grease on the o rings on top of the filter did not help. READING ANOTHER REVIEW THAT SAID TO BE SURE IT IS TURNED ALL THE WAY TO THE RIGHT (IT IS A VERY HARD RIGHT TURN, WITH A SECOND CLICK) FINALLY WORKED. They need to put this HINT in bold in the instructions! Also, once it was installed properly, it didn't seem to reduce the pressure/flow rate significantly. Once it stopped leaking we did a blind taste test between tap water, filtered pitcher water, and water run through this filter. The water from this filter came in a very close second to the filtered pitcher water. Given that this filter shouldn't need to be replaced as often, and I don't have to have (two) pitchers sitting around taking up space all the time, I think it will be worth the effort and cost. I will update in a few months.
