10K-Gen3 Ultra High Capacity Direct Connect

Score: 8.5/10 | The Woder 10K-Gen3 is the value champion of under-sink filtration. At $55 with 10,000-gallon capacity, it costs roughly $0.006 per gallon - less than any pitcher or competing under-sink system.

The Woder holds NSF 42 certification for chlorine, taste, and odor plus NSF 53 certification for lead and heavy metals. Independent testing confirms 99.6% lead reduction.

Removes chlorine, lead, mercury, chromium-6, and heavy metals. Does NOT hold NSF P473 certification for PFAS - families with forever chemical concerns should consider Clearly Filtered or Aquasana instead.

Connects directly to your cold water line with included fittings. No separate faucet required - filtered water comes from your existing faucet.

This is the standout feature. At 3 gallons daily for a family of four, the filter lasts over 9 years theoretically. Woder recommends replacement every 3 years regardless of capacity to ensure optimal performance.

Two gallons per minute is excellent for an under-sink filter - no waiting for water to fill containers.

Woder uses selective filtration that removes contaminants while retaining beneficial minerals like calcium and magnesium. Unlike RO systems, you keep the good stuff.

Remarkably affordable for a 10,000-gallon NSF-certified filter.

The lowest cost-per-gallon of any filter we have tested:

• Woder 10K: $0.006/gallon
• Brita Elite: $0.13/gallon
• Clearly Filtered: $0.45/gallon

One filter every 3 years at $55 = $18/year. Unbeatable value.

The Woder 10K-Gen3 is the best value in water filtration for families who want solid lead and chlorine removal without premium pricing or frequent filter changes. The lack of PFAS certification is the only significant limitation.
