Great filter system! (Rating: 5 out of 5) I have had this filter system a year and am very pleased. It was easy to install, it just screwed on the tap. The black/chrome looks sharp with my stainless steel faucet. The LED light turns red so you know when to change the filter. The taste of my water is SIGNIFICANTLY improved! It's a great product for a great price.
weakest link (Rating: 2 out of 5) This product has great features, and for the first day that I used it I was happy with it, but the second day I flipped the water on and the sudden increase in pressure blew it completely off. Now I can't get it back on. If you have very low water pressure it might work for you, but don't plan on taking it on and off and try not to bump it. It doesn't matter how good a product is when one aspect makes the entire thing unusable!
Filter works, attachments don't... (Rating: 1 out of 5) We have gone through 3 of these in 2 years. The actual water filter works great but the way it attaches to your sink will eventually fail and end up spraying you or completely falling off. The attachment parts are plastic and if the threads don't get stripped while you put it on the first time, they will eventually wear down and then there is nothing you can do except shell out more bucks for a new one - mainly just for the little plastic threaded connector. Also, the indicator light is not 100% reliable. I recall it flashing red for weeks even though we had just put a brand new filter in the holder.
Cheap is what cheap does. (Rating: 1 out of 5) This is a cheaply made piece of dung. It looks chrome and nice, but it's plastic. The treads that connect it to the facet are so soft and cheap, it only takes a couple times coming off (and it will repeatedly) before the assembly is rendered completely useless.
DO NOT BUY.
Only OK (Rating: 3 out of 5) There are a couple of things to be aware of before you buy this.
The indicator lights are powered by a non-replaceable battery. Britta says it has a 5 year life but if it fails sooner it can't be replaced. After that, no indicator for filter replacement.
The mounting fittings that come with the filter are cheap plastic and I couldn't mount mine without it blowing off if the water was turned up too high. Call Britta and they will send (free) metal fittings but it takes a couple of weeks.
Britta automated phone assistance is horrific to navigate.
