Tools and Hardware Reviews of PUR 2-Stage Vertical White Faucet Mount FM-3333B
Customer Review: What a piece of junk
Summary: 1 Stars
This is possibly the worst product I've ever bought. Other reviewers have mentioned that their units cracked after replacing the original filter. I am SO ENVIOUS !!!
I never got to replace the filter, as mine cracked before it was time to replace the filter. The first one cracked on the display housing. I tried to repair it, but it leaked and sprayed again. I thought perhaps I had accidentaly swung the faucet over and hit the filter unit against the window frame, cracking the unit.
I bought another system and the second unit developed
the same problem, spraying water all over from the cracked window housing
Now I can get a drink and take a shower at the same time.
My advice: Stay away from this product, buy something else.
This item gets one star because that's the minimum Amazon requires to publish a review, otherwise I'd give the PUR 2 stage water filter ZILCH !!!
Customer Review: Don't buy this product!!!!

I bought the PUR Filter after years of using Brita products (pitcher and dispenser). It got annoying to have to refill them over and over, so I thought the faucet mount was an easy transition. God what a waste of money. After about 4 months of normal use, the mount would no longer stay on my faucet. It was constantly being knocked off and consequently would start spraying water everywhere. Before that, the light indicator stopped working even though the filter still worked. The faucet mount is flimsy and cheap, and definitely not worth the $40 or so dollars Proctor and Gamble charges. My fiance called Proctor and Gamble to complain and they sent us another one. Unfortunately we had bought a box of refill filters at costco, but once those are all used and finished this will be our first and LAST Pur product we buy.
Buy Brita instead.
Customer Review: Do not waste your money

I bought the PUR 2-Stage Vertical White Faucet Mount FM-3333B about 2 months ago. It was easy to install and worked right away. However, that didn't last long. The amount of water coming out of the filtered side slowed down quite rapidly. Barely two months after installing it, there is hardly any water coming out. The filter has an indicator that is supposed to flash green when the filter cartridge is good, and changes color to orange or red when it's time to change it. Mine didn't even get to that point and it stopped working. I never ran hot water through the filter which is a warning that came in the instructions. This is just very poorly constructed. This product was cheap, and worked cheaply. Don't waste your money. Make some more research and instead, buy a quality product that will work.Customer Review: Bad Product Design

I have the same problems others have had with the filter housing cracking and leaking. It cracked around the window for the indicator that let's you know when to change the filter before I even had a chance to change the first filter (1 month). The water from this leak rides down the side of the housing and into the filtered water stream. If you have ever seen the dirty side of a filter imagine water from that leaking into what you are about to drink; not very sanitary. Also the faucet attachment started to leak which would spray a tiny stream onto the counter.
It's products like this that doesn't help the economy. Who wants to give their hard earned money away. With every bad product like this I grow more reluctant to spend.
Customer Review: Good Water, LONG Wait
Summary: 2 Stars
This filter worked great for about the first week of use. Our water tested better in a blind taste-test and seemed cleaner.
Unfortunately, after one week, the filtration process got slower and slower and SLOWER. At first, a glass of water took 5 seconds, then 10, and then like 20-30 seconds. It got so bad we started putting a 1 gallon jug under the filter and waited 1-3 hours for a gallon of filtered water! Not only that, but the filter replacement indicator says the filter is just fine and doesn't need to be replaced (as it shouldn't, being only 1 month old).
Also, the filter does take up a bit of space on your faucet, so you may want to consider an alternative if you have a small sink.
