Basic Faucet Filtration System
adapter problem Although I do like the convience of this filer I was disapointed that it really only lasted about two months. had a lot of problems with the adapter falling off then eventually it leaked and I was not able to use 2011-06-18 12:29:49
Knob very difficult to turn It is easy to install. Water comes out clean .My only BIG PROBLEM is that the knob is SUPER SUPER difficult to turn. My kids used to love it when they could move the knob, now they cant turn it all, neither can I. Very poor design on the knob system, will not buy it again. 2011-06-23 10:50:11
i will not purchase again The filtration works fine, but the button to turn from tap to filter is very hard to turn. 2011-06-26 18:05:03
Extremely difficult to switch filter on/off It is impossible to switch this filter on and off with one hand. I assume the engineers were trying to prevent the switch from being too lose, but it is unbelievable how tight the switch is compared to the "Complete" version I had a few years ago. 2011-07-04 14:33:16
Great while it lasted I was really excited to buy this product. At first it worked like a dream. A couple weeks went by and the plastic kept coming off, so water was leaking everywhere. I finally just gave up and threw it away. 2011-07-26 18:54:25
Product improved taste of water I have used Brita filters for years as the water in my area has a bad taste and the filter greatly improves the taste!! There have been some of the problems that other reviewers shared; but using some of the tips, no further problems! Good filter and good price! 2011-07-26 19:06:24
Terrible!!! We were so excited about this faucet filter. We have the filter pitcher but go through the water so fast, we thought the faucet filter would suit us better. However, it pops off more than it works. It will pop off & water sprays everywhere. I DO NOT RECOMMEND YOU WASTE YOUR MONEY!!!! 2011-07-26 19:50:37
Great product! We first started using the filter when our son was born since our water was so hard. But we liked the change so much that we're going on using it for 4 years now! Granted we have to get a new one more often than I would like, that's just because all of the hard water buildup. Great buy for a great price! 2011-07-26 19:55:04
An inexpensive way to filter water. It's a simple inexpensive filtration system, water does a little better after using this. 2011-07-26 20:40:43
Nice Water takes great. Sometimes we forget to switch back to regular tap and that's rough. So far. we've had it 2 month and no need to replace filter. Relatively pleased! YAY! 2011-07-26 20:44:28
This is an easy product to use This is easy to replace and provides filtered water very simply. 2011-07-26 21:38:29
Great I love using it however, I have trouble getting hooked onto new faucets. 2011-07-26 21:52:10
This product is simple to use! I like this product because it is very easy to use and installing is also very easy. 2011-07-26 22:44:47
Good system The water at our apartment is horrible. With the faucet filtration we are able to drink the tap water. We also have a pitcher and the stand with 4 bottles. I have not used a plastic water bottle in over a year. I can use the tap water for cooking or adding water to the fish tank and know that it is filtered. The only negative is that the Brita filter sprays out to hard. Otherwise I love the system. 2011-07-27 00:05:25
Really appreciate the convenience Really happy we purchased the Brita faucet filter again. 2011-07-27 01:27:12
decent filtration? poor design i like the fact that i can filter water at the tap, but, as others have pointed out. the knob gets hard to turn after awhile, especially if you have hard water. (a soak in vinegar does remove the deposits that cause this though) what bothers me most is the adapter design. it tends to loosen easily (due to hard water deposits, again) and eventually the threads strip rendering the filter useless. there is no easy way to get replacement adapters. sure, we could write/call support and ask for new ones but in the mean time we are without filtration... i went with a competitors brand. much smarter design, we are very pleased with it. 2011-07-27 01:56:46
Saves us having to buy water Always wanted to buy one but my husband was against it, then we were at his mothers and he wanted water and he tried hers and loved it so she got us one, we love it and would never go back to buying water 2011-07-27 07:03:34
Love it! No problems. We used to have a different brand faucet filter, and it was slow and annoying. This one flows fast, and is easy to turn. I'm not sure why others are having problems. I'm a 5 foot woman with a bone disease and I have no trouble. My husband attached it...I wonder if others just over-tightened or something. And, we do not get leaks. I would recommend this to others. 2011-07-27 08:01:58
Won't stay on faucet The water tastes great coming out of the filter. It greatly improves the taste of our water. The problem is that it won't stay on the faucet! It popped off so often that I abandoned it. Using a pitcher now. 2011-07-27 08:03:52
it has good features and nice appearance I however think that this filter goes red too fast; it starts changing from green dot to red dot in a matter of weeks, and I find myself changing the cartridge more often than they said I would. 2011-07-27 08:07:58
This product helps with the overall clarity of our public water I think this product works well. There is clearly a difference in our water from a strong chlorine smell to absolutely no trace at all when we use the filter. I am very pleased with the product and that's why I always replace my filter regularly. I recommend this product for anyone who is tired of buying bottled water. It saves money and is better for the environment. 2011-07-27 08:37:48
Great Product! We have "city" water and our Brita faucet filter makes it taste good! I also don't worry about what kinds of chemicals my kids are getting when they drink water from our Brita! :) 2011-07-27 08:54:09
this is a great product The water is always crisp and clear and tastes great! 2011-07-27 09:00:09
I truly appreciate being able to have filtered water at home The water that comes from my Brita is amazing. I hate tap water and am so thankful for your product!!!! 2011-07-27 09:12:32
One Concern The only concern I have had with the unit is switching between filtered water and straight from the tap. I have removed the unit and soaked in vinegar as recommended, but it is a very temporaory fix. Other than that the filter is great and convienient . 2011-07-27 09:16:36
Great filtration system for the price I have had two different Brita faucet filtration systems over the years. I have always had great tasting water ever since. I cant wait to try the Brita Bottle. I think its a great idea and will be very useful to many people! 2011-07-27 09:19:48
This is an okay product! I have found that the filters are expensive, it looses water pressure and its bulky. 2011-07-27 09:23:15
new user I definitely have to have this for where I live... It works great and I love the changes in water dispense you can switch to. It has definitely made my 5 year old want to drink more water also. 2011-07-27 10:18:40
Convenient Having the water filter right on the faucet is convenient for me and my family. 2011-07-27 10:59:37
Like being able t turn it off. It needs to be less in the way for doing dishes. He always has to take it off. 2011-07-27 12:19:14
IT IS A GOOD PRODUCT FOR WHAT YOU PAY I DON'T HAVE ANY PROBLEMS TURNING THE KNOB BUT IT IS TRUE THAT WHEN THE WATER PRESSURE IS ON NORMAL LEVEL WATER WILL BEGIN TO LEAK OUT OF THE SIDES SO YOU HAVE TO FILL UP SLOWLY WHICH IS TIME CONSUMING. BUT I USE MY SYSTEM TO FILL UP MY HUGE WATER JUG THAT SITS ON TOP OF A COOLING/HEATING WATER DISPENSER SO OVER ALL THE PRODUCT WORKS GREAT FOR MY NEEDS JUST TAKES ABOUT THIRTY MINUTES TO FILL ONCE OR TWICE EVERY TWO WEEKS. 2011-07-27 13:37:14
I love how easy this is to use I love how easy this system is to install and use. I drink so much more water now that I have this. I used to have just a pitcher but it's nice to not to have the pitcher taking up space in my fridge. I love it! 2011-07-27 14:53:53
did not work with my faucet this filter did not work well with my faucet!! it leacked 2011-07-27 15:10:07
Water great, handle bad I have used both types of Britta faucet mounted filters and find both of them very difficult to switch between filtered and unfiltered water. I routinely clean the entire unit with vinegar and so I do not feel that this is a hard water issue. 2011-07-27 17:12:03
Great asset to your kitchen sink This is an inexpensive way to be able to drink good water without spending a fortune on bottle water! 2011-07-27 22:32:51
Great Product I have used this product for a few years, it is wonderful. The water is crisp, clear and refreshing. 2011-07-28 09:10:17
Love it!! I absolutely love the Brita Basic. I think the water definitely tastes different and love how you can switch from filtered for drinking to non filtered for dish washing. Thank you Brita!!!! 2011-07-28 14:58:21
Fine but pitcher is better This item is average it slowing the water, personally I like the pitcher I recently purchase better. 2011-07-29 02:08:10
Hard to connect I liked this product but it was very hard to connect to the faucet. We had to order new parts and it still leaked. 2011-07-29 08:19:43
Love this! I cannot live without this...I drink more water now than I ever have, it tastes great! 2011-07-29 10:55:47
Great but leaks This is a great porduct tohave but sometimes it leaks. The light stops working and doe snot work all the time. So you just have to guess when you need to change the filter. 2011-07-30 06:30:48
Love this water! Our tap water is just OK... We love the taste of the water through our Brita filter and will all stand in line at the sink to wait if we have to. I haven't purchased prefilled water bottles in over a year - we just refill our bottles with the Brita water. Saves money, tastes good. 2011-07-30 11:56:55
works well I like the new size of this filter - doesn't get in the way like the older, larger models. Having three options of filter, and 2 regular water is nice too. 2011-07-30 12:12:38
Great tasting water! Needed to buy an additional washer so it would stay on the sink, but now it is perfect! 2011-07-30 13:02:33
Crisp Water The water is so much cleaner and tastes better with my filtration system. 2011-07-31 11:42:20
Did what it needed to do, filter my water from the tap! I haven't always been a filtered water person but now that I have my Brita I love it! Its simple and easy to install and the light reminds you when it is necessary to change it. Its great! 2011-07-31 20:58:41
leaked really bad Going for the cheapest model did not pay off this time:(((It leaked really bad even though the quality of water got a lot better.Maybe more upscale model would do the trick?! 2011-08-02 01:36:02
Clean Crisp Drinking Water Our tap water was HORRIBLE!!!! But now that we've installed the Brita Filtration cleaner our water is so much cleaner and tastes100% better. 2011-08-02 09:19:25
Great product but not efficient for us I loved this for our faucet but, becuase our water is so poor, we went through many filters. I loved the product but it did not help us much! 2011-08-02 12:53:30
Easy to use! the filter was easy to install and use. have had this sink mounted filter for about 1 month now and water is much better in taste and feel. next I need a brita bottle for when I'm away from home. 2011-08-02 21:41:19
Easy to use this filter system was easy to install even on my older faucet. great product for the value. 2011-08-02 21:57:19
Now I Love my Drinking Water! I have been using a Brita faucet filter for several years and I love it. The water tastes great ... no more awful residue on the inside of my glass coffee pot ... clear and good tasting ice cubes. My whole family loves it. 2011-08-03 09:48:58
Good Product My water comes out very crisp and clean, and I love the taste. 2011-08-04 07:30:57
This product delivers as advertised My wife and I have used the Brita filtration system for over a year. We have found that it will filter about 100 gallons of water (about 3-4 months for us), and the water quality is great. We use it to cook vegetables and make coffee. Before using this system I was buying several gallons of water each week. 2011-08-04 12:07:34
Works great I love this filter, it works great and makes my tap water taste great. I have never been a fan of tap water but this makes it drinkable!! 2011-08-05 16:20:19
Great Product/ Way to Save We purchased the filter and we have saved a bundle! We have not had to purchase as much bottled water, we can reuse our bottles we already have. We don't have to buy the expensive filters for the refridgerator anymore either. This item is great, and is very simple to use. My kids know when it's time to change the filter. Kid friendly, and very affordable 2011-08-06 20:46:59
We love our brita filter. Our water tastes so much better now. We are very pleased with our brita filter and the difference it makes. 2011-08-07 16:04:24
Clean water is healthy water I'm happy that I have water that's cleaner and healthier than if I just got it from tap. however, the filter was difficult to stay attached to my faucet and I wish there was a way I wouldn't have to worry about it falling off. 2011-08-07 22:05:27
This product works great I am pleased that I decided to try the faucet filter. It's easy to use and the water tastes great. 2011-08-09 15:17:20
I LOVE FILTERED WATER It's easy to install and saves loads of money. We are a family of five with sports all year. This is so much better than purchasing individual bottles. Thanks. This is a great way to save a few extra bucks. 2011-08-10 09:24:22
Easy To Use I like the faucet system, it's easy to use, I find I drink more water because it is easily accessible. 2011-08-10 11:56:03
