If you buy this, save yourself potential headache and IMMEDIATELY call the Brita 800 # and ask for metal connectors. I haven’t had success keeping the connection tight without the metal ones. The cheap plastic connectors included in the original package are almost guaranteed to fail. Brita must know this…I wish they would fix this problem and just include the metal ones standard.

After connecting this unit I found that an increase in water pressure caused the unit to pop off at the threads. I’m not talking about a lot of pressure here either. It appears that the orifice used to channel the water up thru the filter is too small which in turn builds up a lot of back pressure. Also the few times that I got it to work, I had to slooowly run the water. This is a really bad design. The last unit I had was a Teledyne and worked great, I just couldn’t find filters for it. I guess I’ll buy the one from Pur and see what happens.
Follow-up: turned out the unit came with a clogged filter cartridge. Unfortunaely I found this out after buying another brand.

I bought this for my dorm room. We have horrible tasting water here, and this little filter does an excellent job of removing the bad taste. I have not had any problems with leaking or broken parts, I think it is very well made. The selector between filtered water and non-filtered water is very handy and also works exactly as it should. I’ve been using it for nearly two months now. The light on the from that tells you when to change the filter is a nice idea and works fine. On the down side, the replacement filters are a tad expensive, but still cheaper than Pur and other brands. I like it and would recommend it to anyone who is drinking processed water. It also makes well water a little more palatable.

The unit keeps blowing off of the faucet…we took it off.
And now we can’t remove the adapter. Pissed as HELL!

We bought this to replace the Pur Flavor Options filter when it bit the dust (leaking and spraying and impossible to install properly) after a year of use. The first thing my husband told me when he installed it is that it’s held together by plastic threaded pieces and you can’t overtighten it or it will pop the threads and fall apart. He was very unimpressed. Well, within two or three days of installing it, I accidentally bumped the filter while swinging the faucet from one side of our double-sink to the other. Sure enough, just that small movement loosened the threads and now we can no longer tighten them down enough to make a good seal. Water sprays out of the top of the unit (and onto us and the counters) every time we turn it on, whether for filtered or unfiltered water. The knob to switch between Brita water and tap water is also more difficult to turn than I think it should be. It feels awkward and I’m always afraid that just the movement of turning that knob is going to loosen the filtration unit even more. As soon as we can find the receipt, this thing is going back to Lowes. I’ve always loved Brita products but this is a big disappointment.
