This was fairly easy to install under my sink to feed a filtered water faucet. Installed about 3 years ago and has worked fine, no issues. Would be nice if a mounting bracket was included. Lower cost to filter more water and can select different filters for needs. Do not have to change filter as often which is nice.

I used this as a prefilter for a home made maple syrup making reverse osmosis system. It was inexpensive and the see through plastic was nice for checking filter status. I had zero leaks even after opening the housing multiple times. I also ran it at around 100-120 psi for long periods of time while running the system.

Using these for drying air.Added a tube to the center port, routed to the bottom and filled with desiccant.Works great!

Leaked. There was a broken / missing chunk of plastic around the threads at the top of the clear housing, but that does not seem to be the cause. The o-ring just sits improperly in the housing. Went to replace assembly the same day, but there is no option to replace, only to return and re-order. But the price has gone up 50% in that week!!!!

Has a thread-pitch that is different than the one commonly found in big-box stores. Probably accounts for reports of leaks. Otherwise, it's a quality product.

I had a standard opaque filter housing with ribbed top. It started leaking so I put in a new O-ring. No help. Then I greased the O-ring with silicone grease. No help. My friend told there must be a little in the housing somewhere so I bought a new filter housing. I measured the hole in each end of the leaking housing and they are 1/2 inch wide so I thought I needed a 1/2 in" filter housing. Wrong. The screw in hole in the cap of this 1/4" filter housing is 1/2 inch wide. I'm not a plumber or this is confusing to me. Perhaps the 1/4 inch refers to the tubing that is used with these. But hope this is helpful information so you don't make the same mistake. When I got this one. Worked great. No leak so far.

The filter housing was missing the o-ring, and I didn't notice until after the return period expired. I was able to find the right size at work, fortunately.
