Tools and Hardware Reviews of Brita 35214 Base Faucet Filtration System
Customer Review: Don't bother, with this one (Sorry, Brita)...
Summary: 1 Stars
I rather like their filtering pitcher, but the on-faucet filter is a piece of junk. Why?? It blows off the faucet, right out of the box.
I called Brita, & they sent a bunch of adapters. Still blew itself off the faucet, twice in a night. The problem, was, the filter would not tighten on the adapters. If the screw-on part was metal, NO PROBLEM, I am certain, because the [PUR] filter it was supposed to replace --two years + old, & finally leaking around the seams-- has a metal attaching apparatus. Will have to continue using it, until I can find a replacement.
Thank goodness, for Amazon's excellent returns policy.
Customer Review: Get the metal connectors from Brita
Summary: 5 Stars
and it will work great. Call them and they will send them to you for free. They send a full set of metal parts that should work with most faucets -- I have successfully used them with different faucets in two apartments, and my current faucet is very old, but I was able to find an adapter in the set that works. The metal connectors solve the problems with water pressure, and are more durable. Do it before you mess up the base by tearing up the threads trying to get it on tight enough.Customer Review: Great product, great price!

I have used Amazon's rating reviews to decide what to buy for quite a few years now and may have to change that as I can't believe all the horrible reviews for this Brita system. Will say that it costs less at Walmart. We had NO problems installing it, no problems seeing the indicator light, and no problems with the water flow. I have gone through three PUR faucet systems and they all had the same issue of cracking/leaking. This is made with a lighter top than the PUR which always would come loose and then crack.
BUY this Brita...it is a great way to save money on all those water bottles.
Customer Review: Great if you get metal connectors.
Summary: 3 Stars
This is a convenient little filter, does its job well. However, unless you go buy a metal faucet adapter ($4 at Home Depot) to replace the cheap plastic ones it comes with this thing will quickly fall off your faucet and fail to reattach securely.Customer Review: filtration light-none

I purchased this four months ago. I could have notified you then but, I didn't use it until the holidays. The awareness light has never worked! I can taste it filtering, and hopefully I'LL KNOW WHEN IT STOPS THE FILTERING.
I LOVE AMAZON, iT IS SO RARE that I am disappointed in them. their sales and free shipping are a great incentive!
