Tony B: WE had the first version of this filter housing for over 25 years and love its simplicity for a great under-sink filtration system. I accidentally broke the mounting bracket on our old one and found this unit as an exact replacement. We use the FLUX... filter unit, the second best one available for this housing and get consistently clean water that tastes excellent especially when compared to our normal tap water. Over the years this filter, even with periodic element changes, paid for itself over and over again over purchasing bottled water. I'm only giving it 4 stars for installation ease and value because it was not provided with the required mounting tubing and connections required for hookup, which would have bee worth a couple of extra bucks. The corresponding hookup kit and a sink nozzle accessory will need to be sourced and purchased separately for a new installation, but a still worth it.

Joel N. Kuhn: Works great. Only issue was getting a seal on the inlet port (3/8 female NPT thread). Had to really torque in a brass fitting, but now it seems fine.

The Moose: Works well. It does help to use some teflon tape on the threads. Need to get the hose connectors separately; they can be found inexpensively at your local home improvement store. The advantage to getting your own connectors is that you can pick the desired hose size. I'm using it as a single stage inline filter to feed a refrigerator water/ice maker supply. Had ready access to the line from the basement. Gives a cost effective alternative to buying the refrigerator's manufacturer filter. Finally, I highly recommend buying the sump wrench; a tool that allows for snugging up the sump and easy removal when changing out the filter.

azguy: I wasn't pleased with flow rate from the existing Brita filter and having to discard relatively expensive and hard to find twist-on cylinders of plastic into the landfill. The installation of the GE filtration system was straight forward and involved threading 3/8 inch WATTS quick connect adapters (PL-3826) to each side of the filter after wrapping each with Teflon tape. I purchased the WATTS adapters locally for about $10 total. I then inserted the 3/8 inch plastic water lines that connected to the water valve and the faucet under the sink (I was able to reuse the existing water lines). Mounting the filter base only required installing 2 screws in the backboard of the sink cabinet. Be certain the backboard is stout enough to support filter system and locate it so as to facilitate later replacing the filter. The GE filter canister accepts several different types replacement filters depending on your filtration needs. Placing the filter in the canister and threading it on presented no issues (or leaks) but I did purchase the GE plastic wrench which helped. The flow from the faucet has notably increased and the water quality is equal to or better than with the other filter. The...
