I live in Kefalonia, Greece and have trouble with hard water and the taste it has on this tiny Island. You can buy these filters here but have to wait over 60days for them to come into stock and they are a lot more expensive than Amazon. Once inserted into the glass chamber, and allowing the water to run through the filter you can definetly taste the difference. If you really need a quick and cheap way of filtering your water then this is the product for you. I have been using this now for over 2 years and it has saved me hundreds of Euros in bottled water. A must for all those who care what is being placed into there bodies.
