Review on Under sink filter Atoll A-550 STD (A-560E) 1/2" by Franciszka Oleksa ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Wonderful quality, one hundred percent satisfied!

We left the filter mugs 3 years ago. We bought bottled water - we tried everything that was on the market. They drank mostly Shishkin Forest, but several times they came across a disgusting quality, and they got tired of carrying it. There was an idea to return to the filters. After reading reviews and reviews, I settled on this model, and the price attracted 7000 with delivery. Of course, for 7000 you can even buy more than 150 five-liter bottles of water at current prices, and if you take into account the prices for replaceable filters 1000 +and a membrane 2022 +, then this filter pays off only if the family is really big, the consumption is more than 20 liters / day or never =) Replacement of filters is carried out in 16 stages, not counting disinfection. So the water is clean in the house, but also a hassle. As it is correctly written in one of the comments: half a year of pure water buzz - then a session (filter replacement). Despite the presence of shortcomings, I put it perfectly - in my opinion, the advantages outweighed more than. Good luck to all.

Pros
  • Very tasty water. Subjectively better than bottled. Many times better than from the "mugs". Naturally, no scum. In addition to cooking, I use it in an ultrasonic humidifier and in an iron. Very high filter performance - We treat neighbors, I take them to work in the country =) Easy installation - detailed instructions. It took up much less space under my sink than I expected (compact). Made of good quality plastic and steel. Very nice faucet! graceful and soft! No worse than my Grohe faucets.
Cons
  • A lot of connections (lowers the reliability of the system). When installing, I recommend using a lot of FUM tape. At the LHC, I made 5 turns under the plastic tap instead of the recommended 3 (it leaked). But I had to tinker with the tie-in to the system - 9 turns of the tape went to connect the small tap from the kit with the tee from the kit (otherwise it was leaky). The plastic valve on the storage tank is not entirely clear, because the pressure there is very high. There is not a single spare retaining ring that is used in plastic tubing connections. Very high payback period. Specifically, in my copy, a flask with a pre-installed PREfilter (the first flask) was leaking even at the maximum tightening - I had to remove the flask with a prefilter, lubricate the gasket with vaseline oil, carefully install everything back and tighten with a wrench (which is not recommended by the instructions) . only then the flow stopped.
