Tools and Hardware Reviews of Brita 42201 On Tap Filtration System, White
Customer Review: Complete deterioration in quality of tap-mount
Summary: 1 Stars
I am on my third Brita tap mount in 2 months. On the first, the indicator light stopped working even before the first filter change. The second, sent to me by the company as a replacement, didn't fit properly on the tap and kept falling off. The third, another purchase and a brand-new design, leaked copious amounts of water from the filter release button and from the filter vs. tap water toggle.
I have used Brita tap-mounts for years. The previous tap-mount lasted several years and was replaced because its physical appearance started to deteriorate. Quality control has clearly declined and the new design is fatally flawed. My recommendation? Buy Pur.
Customer Review: Good filtered water from a cheaply made device
Summary: 3 Stars
There weren't enough attachments to connect it to our kitchen faucet so I was forced to install it onto a bathroom faucet instead. That was the first strike against it. The second strike came when after fiddling with all the adapters, pre-filter, and washers I realized that there was no way to securely fasten it to the bathroom faucet without water leaking out of the unit at the point that it joins to the faucet. I was almost ready to return it but after the first pitch..er of water I realised it does a nice job of filtering water. The water actually tastes much better than tap water. I'm not thrilled with this product but it is OK for the price.Customer Review: keeps falling off my faucet, sprays water everywhere
Summary: 1 Stars
I bought this because I was tired of constantly filling the Brita pitcher, and because the on-tap system was on sale for about $16 at a local grocery store.
On numerous occassions, when I turn the water on in the filter position, the whole unit has shot off the faucet landing with a big KLUNK in my sink. And it's a pain in the neck to get it back on.
A few minutes ago, I turned it on, and it just sprayed water all over me and my floor like a geyser. If the unit doesn't fly off completely, it sprays you. This is the second time it's sprayed.
Not worth the aggravation and clean up time.
Customer Review: great product, great prices
Summary: 5 Stars
i dont understand all the people talking about how their unit fell apart..? it's plastic, people, don't toss it around likea football! my parents bought one 5 years ago, loved it, bought one each for my brother and me 4 years ago, and we both love it. i've moved 3 times and never had a problem taking it off or putting it back on
as for the doctor with the mold... it filters water, it makes sense that it would be mold-and-mildrew-prone if not cleaned! twice a year when i change the filter, i use a toothbrush and watered-down peroxide to get at all the small areas, and it's clean as a whistle and good as new
Customer Review: Great with one small exception
Summary: 3 Stars
This is my second one after the first one wore out due to contamination and build up. Filters well. The only one complaint that I have with it which my only be applicable to my faucet is that the adapter is a little short. I needed to use Teflon tape to get a good seal. It tends to get loose and get leaky. I have to keep tightening it back up every once in a while to keep it from leaking. I think that the adapter may have changed slightly since I bought the first one a few years ago which didn't have any of these issues. But, otherwise, works well. However, that said, I would consider trying a PUR filter next time.
