You buy this as the long term stainless steel base and then buy different filters at the six month mark and onward.
I've been doing this about 5 or 6 years now with good success and clean water.
Decent filters to consider are the "Aquacera 9 Inch CeraMetix" ones sold a few shops online. They are a new knockoff of a very old well-known British douley model and filter a lot out at a decent price point.
Hope this helps someone.
bad news: the next two filters will cost you ~$63

They claim they are rated for 3000 gallons each, but say they should be replaced after 6 months.

Brita:
40 gallons per Brita filter @ 3.83 (basic amazon generic price) nets you 0.09575 or ~10 cents a gallon
Purewell:
6000 gallons per Purewell Filter @ 63.00 nets you 0.0105 or ~ 1 cent a gallon.
The frugal will be very pleased.
As for the expiration date... I feel like this is more or less an estimate based on some average rate of consumption. Makes it easy for people to know when they should replace and it makes it opportunistic for companies to sell more filters. I'm not aware of anything in these filters that would expire and just stop filtering.

Not sure... but I know my brita got some funky stuff growing in the cartridge after a while, could taste it. Swap cartridge, back to clean taste.

Friends, this will house most of, if not all of the 7 and 9 inch high quality aftermarket filters.

Another thing to note on filters. I take them out and scrub them with a green scotchbrite pad every few months. Or when the filtering slows down. Whichever comes first.

No prob friend. Yes some will scrub to increase lifespan. Others it won't matter as much but doesn't hurt to try almost all. Catch you later friend.

Berkey created a new company for their filters called Boroux filters. Here's a 20% off for them that exp tonight: Spring20
