Hello:
Water at our new place is pretty poor, and have decided to purchase
one of those spigot mounted filters for the kitchen faucet.
Guess there are 2 primary brands: Pur, and Brita
Anyone have any opinions regarding which is more effective, filter
replacement costs, construction quality, etc. ?
Thanks,
Bob

Can't give you an opinion on the Pur; but I've used the Brita, and it did
the job for me, and the cartridges were easy to change, and comparable or
less, in cost to replace.

You can get, cheaper, more convenient results with an undersink filter for
the cold water line. I like the InstaPure IR10 cartridges as they take out
any sediment as well as rust and last 4 or 5 months.

What's less expensive, filter-wise, filtering only the water you 'need' or
filtering all the cold water out of the tap?

I don't know for sure, but I spend $30 a year and never worry about putting
the filter in the right position. Those cartridges for the smaller units
are not very cheap.
