After struggling with this system for five years, I give up. The caps holding the filters in place never, ever unscrew without a struggle or a neighbor's help. This time, it's over. My neighbor, an iron worker couldn't remove them, and of course again the flimsy level on the caps broke. I'm over Aquasana and on to finding another filter system. It's a terrible design. -- Horrible experience
I have soaked the valve in vinegar as suggested, but it doesn't help. The valve sticks open. Poor design, don't waste your money. -- faulty valve
I bought one of these Aquasana Countertop Filters about two years ago to replace a Pur Countertop Water Filter which I had used for many years. I switched brands only because Pur stopped making the Countertop Filter.
I'm sorry to report that this Aquasana just suffered a catastrophic failure this morning -- water started gushing out of the plastic case, and I found that the base of the case had split, just below where one of the filters attaches.
That's pretty pathetic for a product I've used for only two years. Clearly the company needs to use higher-grade plastic in the manufacture of this unit.
So -- I no longer recommend the Aquasana, and I am now trying the 10-Year Countertop Filter available at Hammacher-Schlemmer. It's less expensive than the Aquasana, and because "10-Year" is in the name of the product, I can count on Hammacher to replace it if it fails during that period. -- Not Durable
This is now the second Aquasana water filter that I have owned and I will buy nothing else. This system works great and produces some of the best water I drink and it makes water much cheaper than buying it. The filter only needs to be changed every 6-months or so depending upon your use. I used to buy straight from the company but now do it via Amazon to save on shipping. -- OUTSTANDING!!!
I've bought this system and replacement filters to last me for a while. When my unit arrived, I've placed it into storage to be installed at a later date. Big mistake, because now I can't return it even though the unit has never been used. After hooking up the unit, one of the filters leaked. I ordered some new rubber rings and replaced them. When I lifted up the unit to look underneath it if the filters still leaked, the whole inside of the housing just came loose, fell into the sink and the little pipe that links the two filters broke on one end. Now I have to order a new housing. The housing shell doesn't lock properly into the base, the whole design is flawed, the plastic is cheap and soft, I bet there is not a single unit out there that's gonna make it for the long run...BEWARE of the 5-star ratings for this item - most of them are written by the same person! Same sentences, just twisted around, same pattern. At this time I cannot recommend another product, but my advice is to stay away from this piece of junk!
UPDATE: They did send me a brandnew unit, a gesture that I appreciate, but the housing still doesn't lock properly into the base, so I applied some scotch tape to hold the whole shebang together... -- don't waste your money
