Question:

Would you know if these filters are actually made by different companies, and just resold by Omni, GE, Culligan, etc.. OR is it likely that these are made by different companies and I can get a different water taste by trying someone else's filter?

I thought I remember the water tasting better with the GE filters, but it's been 2 years since I used those, and I could be wrong.

Answer:

My first instinct would be to go to www.consumerreports.com (or your library) and see what they had to say about water filters. For 4.95, you can get a month's worth of web access. I see they have a report on filtering systems from January of '03. Maybe it will provide some insight.
