Great product

Pros: saves money
Cons: plastic
"Good function, does not match all the dispensers. Definitely saves on water service. First batch of water did not taste right, the rest is great."

Excellent Product

"I am disabled and lifting the 3-gallon water bottle was becoming problematic for me. This system is a lifesaver. Being able to fill this filtration system from the top has made my life so much easier. The filter is excellent and I am very happy with this product."

Great water filter

Model Number: GWF8
"Works great so far with a Primo water dispenser we purchased from Walmart. The key is to remove the bottle support collar from the dispenser to prevent leaking."

Pros: water tastes great. saves a lot of $$$
Model Number: GWF8
"Found the Greenway Water Dispenser Filtration System on the Costco website. I've been wanting to get rid of the expense of purchasing bottled water and then lugging the 5 gallon bottles from the garage to the cooler. The Greenway system is a wonderful compromise -- my family gets to have instant cold filtered water at a fraction of the cost of bottled water. We've all adjusted fine. Very easy to set up if you follow directions correctly. The water tastes great. Wish I knew about the Greenway system earlier."

Does not work well in hard water

"I purchased in the hopes we could stop lugging and filling 5 gal bottles. Installed easily, after soaking and cleaning as directed. The water still had poor taste, not the clean fresh promised taste, would rate it as no different from any tap filtration product or refrigerator filtered water. We have hard water, perhaps in a softer water area might work fine. Has been returned."

Best purchace ever

Model Number: filter number GWF3
"I purchased this filtration system because my husband passed away and I had to rely on the kindness of my neighbors to change my water bottle every 6 days. Now I can fill it up and take care of it myself. Water tastes great and it's much cheaper than the 3 gallon bottled water. Hope the filter lasts as long as they said."

no more heavy bottles!

"I already had a crock-type water dispenser set up, so decided to try this "Brita" type system in place of those heavy bottles. It's GREAT! It beats tap water or lugging bottles any day - and it tastes better than Arrowhead. One thing to be careful - mine leaked because we couldn't find the little silicone floater part - we went through all the packing material several times and finally my daughter "felt" something! Once that was remedied, no leaks. :-)"

leaks

"Even after tearing my water dispenser apart to remove the collar, it still leaks. It overflows my tank. Now I cannot return my water dispenser back to the original since I had to damage the collar to remove it.I would return it if I still had my box."

Bought for my wife

Pros: simple easy, no heavy 5 gallon bottle to lift
Model Number: GWF8
"My wife is very picky about the water that she drinks so we had been purchasing bottled water. After going through the various options for filtered water (sink mounted, faucet mounted, pitcher filters, water dispensers, etc...) we decided to try a water dispenser with the Greenway filtration system. The Greenway filtration system worked with the Aquverse 5H water dispenser that we bought, after we removed the baffle from the Aquverse. I set the system up in about 45 minutes (you have to soak the filter in cold water for 30 minutes and clean all the parts in warm, soapy water). At first I was a little worried that the filtration bottle wouldn't work with the water dispenser because it just sits on top and I was worried that there would be water leaks, but I've had no problems. The water tastes good and I'm happy with our choice."

Works Great!

"This filtration system is great! I think the water tastes better than my sparklets did, plus no more expensive delivery, and no lugging bottles to fill.
Just be careful not to overfill-the directions tell you to mind the level markings, and if you fill too much just grab a jug and spigot some water from the cooler.
i bought the aquverse cooler from costco, real easy to take the cowling off and the most quiet motor ever!

Worked with modifications

"After modifying my water cooler, used a "sawsall" to cut the cone shaped collar and bottle piercer out of my cooler, the filtration bottle now fits onto my cooler. The two piece bottle could be improved by adding a gasket where the bottle is seamed. Also, a "do not fill above this line" would prevent the water cooler from becoming an automatic floor washer. The water cooler with the Brita filters I purchased from Costco about 10 years ago was a much easier & convenient system. I got this as a replacement. It works, just not as well."

No More Bottles!

"We've had water delivery for over 13 years and finally, I found something that provides water that taste just as good as bottled water.
The system was fairly easy to put together although I had a really tough time separating the top and bottom from each other to get the plastic off. But once I was able to break the suction, everything came together very easily. One thing to double check is the floatation part that keeps the water from leaking. Make sure the rubber/silicone part is seated correctly. It wasn't on mine and inside piece fell out, which caused water to leak out. Luckily I caught it fairly early.
Another thing to keep in mind is to make sure water in the bottom reservoir (after the water from the top has filtered down) does not go pass the top dotted line or else it'l leak.
I gave this 4 stars rather than 5 mainly because of the lid. The lid doesn't sit completely flush ontop of the top reservoir lip. The front kind of puckers a bit, almost like it's a bit warped. Not a big deal but it kind of bugs me. But the most important things are that it makes great tasting water and I don't have to lug around those heavy bottles anymore!"

Previous Model was better

Pros: does filter water and tastes good.
Cons: design is poor and lid does not seal properly, insects can enter easily in top chamber
Model Number: GWF-8
"I had purchased the GWF-7 Filtration System for myself over two years ago. I decided to get the newer model GWF-8 for my parents. Newer model doesn't necessarily mean better. When I made a close inspection I realized it has some design flaws. The lid's design is problematic for me. I noticed that when the lid is closed there is a huge gap that doesn't fully seal out the top chamber. I have little gnats that love water and they are able to get inside the top chamber. The previous model didn't have a hinged lid, but it completely sealed the top chamber from any insects or dust particles. I feel that they could have designed the lid better. This is my main concern and I will be returning it to Costco. Avoid the GWF-8 model if you have a problem with gnats or other insects."

Money Saver!!!

"This water filter works great and fitted perfectly in our Oasis water cooler. Easy to assemble, no leaks, and of course, great tasting refreshing water. Wish we had bought it sooner. We used to spend $420 ($70/mon) for 6 months of water delivery VS $40 for filter replacement every 6 mons! Saved us a fortune!!! Thanks, Greenway!"
