I tried one of those years ago. Within a day or two the water in the filter developed a nasty fishy smell and taste. I took it back for a new one and tried that

  That's a defect. I had 1-2 new filters do that but most haven't. The fishy smell is what you get when the filtering system starts to break down. Apparently not harmful but means it is time to switch. From comments elsewhere it seems there are mixed reports about microplastics removal from Zero water (or other types) so now I'm unsure what to recommend.

    Hmmm. Maybe the ones I had were sitting on the shelf at Walmart for a really long time!
