Review on Aquasana 2 Stage Filter System Brushed: Purify Your Water with Style by Donald Gore

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Great filter, be patient when installing

Works great with really good water flow. We used Home Depot and Britta GE brands from the same location. Both two-stage filter systems. Each of them was fine until you changed the filters. Then, for some reason, the flow rate dropped significantly. This immediately has a better flow than GE or Britta. Installation is a little tricky but be patient and you will get it. We have a farmhouse sink, so it was a little tricky to connect the pipe to our faucet. We didn't use the supplied faucet as we already had a suitable one. I like that changing the filter seems easy. A lot of people here and elsewhere say to mount the device on the back, but only if you have a good place to mount it. I put it on its side for easy access to the filters. There are no leaks at all. You REALLY need to make sure you follow the instructions and fully insert the hose into the device. It will go in about an inch. When I first went in it didn't seem as far away as it was again and he went in more. The connection to our faucet worked well and there were no leaks. Don't over tighten, doing this with most plumbing can cause problems. Now we have good-tasting water with a decent flow again. I highly recommend this filter. Oil Rubbed Bronze is slightly lighter than our current faucets. More like oiled brass.
