Tools and Hardware Reviews of Brita 42633 Faucet Filtration System, Black/Chrome
Customer Review: Like the others say, a terrible product.
Summary: 1 Stars
Despite it's seemingly universal design, the included adapter won't fit your sink and once installed it will work for a few minutes, giving you the glimmering illusion of future days of cups quickly filled with filtered water. But soon it will pry loose under the pressure, will start spewing and pouring water everywhere before falling off and breaking any dishes in your sink.
I've really, really struggled to make this work. Seriously. I wanted it to work. But ultimately a miserable product and $60 (incl extra filters) forever lost.
Customer Review: Created with flimsy plastic materials
Summary: 2 Stars
The brita filter functions well - it filters the water and it tastes better than your regular tap water. However it comes with flimsy plastic accessories. If you screw it even a little bit tight it "snaps" past the groove and becomes completely loose. You can also easily knock it off the faucet while washing dishes if the dish or your hand bumps into it. I kept screwing it back on but eventually got tired of it. If you want a filter - buy one that does not have plastic screws.
Definitely would not buy this item again.
Customer Review: excellent filtration system
Summary: 5 Stars
Easy to use, excellent filtration system. I had some trouble originally installing it because I didn't know that plumbing threads are the reverse of screws. Once I got it on correctly, it has worked fine for over one year. The filters pop on and off easily, last a long time, and a red light tells you when it's time to change. Sometimes, the water pressure gets too low and I change to a new filter even though it is still showing a green light. The replacement filters are a little difficult to find.Customer Review: Brita on-tap black/chrome water filter
Summary: 4 Stars
It works as promised, I'm very happy with the functionality (clean water, fast, easy, little green light indicator, etc).
I only gave it 4 stars because it's a little plastic-ey looking. I'd have happilly paid a little more for one that wasn't quite so "I'm plastic pretending to be chrome.", or if it has to be plastic, why make it chrome colored? It's not fooling anyone. Why not make it translucent plastic, tinted in a bright color, so I could see the stuff inside?
Customer Review: Garbage and a designed rip off!
Summary: 1 Stars
I liked this faucet filter until... I changed the filter and went on vacation. No one stayed in my house. When I cam back the filter only lasted 2 months(I only use for drinking water). I decided to call Brita. Per Britas customer service there is a internal time in the filter that automatically makes the "Bad Filter" light come on regardless of use.
They designed this product for you and I to waste our money buying expensive re-fills when they aren't even needed!
