 "A $7 pair of pliers from Home Depot stopped the leaks" 2009-07-27
By DesiRider (Sunnyvale, CA)
We've owned three of these now over a period of five years and counting. We mostly discard the filter once the plastic starts cracking and chipping (typically about two years, your mileage may vary). It has worked great for us overall. I see a lot of negative reviews mentioning leaks. We've had some issues with leaks, but I think I've solved the problem finally. I would always hand-tighten the filter when mounting it. After a few months, it would start leaking. Then I would try tightening some more (still by hand) and the leak would reduce to a dribble and we would live with that. When our newest filter started to leak, I happened to have on hand adjustable pliers from Home Depot that can go wide enough to fit the mount. I gave it a quarter turn and that was it, no more leaks. It's been more than a month now. We used a Brita faucet-mount filter before the Pur and that leaked too.



I think you cannot give a filter a negative grade based on leaks unless the reason is obviously shoddy manufacturing. A filter will necessarily create back pressure and the water will then look to get out from the nearest seam. If the mounting is not watertight, you will have a leak. Where the manufacturers go wrong is in not informing users that they need to use a tool to install it. They want it to seem like anybody can install the system. So they don't mention the words wrench or pliers in their literature.

 "Culligan is better!" 2009-07-23
By LawyerMom (USA)
I don't know why, but I went through THREE Pur faucet filters before finally chucking them in the garbage and buying the Culligan Faucet Filter. The Pur filters were always leaking from the connectors. And if you tried to adjust them, you'd end up stripping the plastic from the connector and being left with an unsightly, scraped up piece of plastic on your sink. And if you do manage to get the Pur filter off to try to repair the leak with plumber's tape, good luck getting the filter back on again.



But the Culligan's connector is made of metal (whereas both the filter housing and the connector of the Pur filter was made of plastic), so it's easy to get the Culligan filter on and off the sink without any leaking whatsoever!



I also love how easy it is to replace the filters! Just a twist of the fingers and it comes right out. I once got a deep cut from replacing a Pur filter where the edge of the cap sliced right into my hand while I was twisting it off, since there were no finger grips to hold onto.



The Culligan is also nice b/c it doesn't sit as low as the Pur filter, so you can put tall bottles or water pitchers under it with more ease. And the quality of the filter and the taste of the water is the same, if not better than the Pur filter. My main complaint against the Culligan is that it doesn't have an indicator to show you when to change the filter; they tell you just to mark it on your calendar, when to change the filter next.



One last hesitation I had about switching over was the fact that I didn't see replacement Culligan filters readily available in the stores. Pur replacement filters are sold in bulk at Target and my local warehouse store. But once, when Amazon was running a buy 1, get 1 half off sale on the Culligan filters, I saw that buying them one by one on Amazon.com was STILL cheaper than buying the Pur filters in bulk at the warehouse store. Add to that the fact that the Culligan filter is cheaper to begin with and you won't have to waste money replacing it periodically when it breaks down and you just have a product that makes good "dollars and sense".

 "poor design" 2009-07-17
By KidsRN (Ohio)
Today I bought the PUR horizontal faucet mounted filter. Six attempts to intall the filter failed due to the poor design. The filter is too heavy for the shallow depth/ height of the threads. No matter what I tried, it kept falling off the faucet. I tried taking the washer out in the hopes that a few extra turns would help it fasten. Naturally, this led to leaking. I tried various methods of tightening and nothing worked. On the last attempt and after running water through it for 5 minutes, I stuck my glass under it, and it fell off again. I bought it at Target and will be returning it tomorrow. Interestingly, I installed two similar Pur filters 18 years ago in my college apartment. I had the same problems then as I had today (would not remain fastened). I am shocked that after almost two decades, Pur persists with the same poor design. Time to switch to another brand.

 "Make sure it fits your faucet" 2009-07-15
By K. Kasten (Frisco, TX USA)
I ordered this not knowing that it might not fit my faucet and sure enough it didn't. None of the attachments helped make it fit either.

 "I Think Procter & Gamble Hates Me" 2009-07-15
By Corey
So, I just picked up my shiny, new Pur FM-9400 water filter. I bought this using my P&G customer coupon that they sent to me to replace me previous 9400 model that lasted only a few months. In the past week I've also purchased a replacement for that water filter, but just returned it because of another leak. The one I installed today is my 4th unit.

I love how easy these things are to install. You just unwrap it, connect it, twist it on and.........it is leaking again. Second time in literally two weeks. It is leaking from underneath the plastic ring and as a result it makes it completely unusable. Seriously, I cannot believe that two brand new units are broken out of the box. I haven't seen build quality like this since the Xbox 360.
