Current issue of Consumer Reports lists 3 whole house filers.

Whirlpool
GE
Kenmore

All 3 contained black dots (failed) on lead removal, chloroform removal, and bad tasted removal. They excelled at flow rate and clogging which is what you think they would be good at being as they do almost nothing.

Here's the except:
"Best for enexpensively removing sediment, rust, and some chlorine. Long cartridge lifetime."

"But most are not designed to, and won't effectively remove most other contaminants including cysts, metals, and VOC's."
