    good, clean water March 07, 2011

    I have owned/installed two of these units, one in FL (where the water was gritty and stank of sulphur) and one in GA (where the water is over-chlorinated). In both cases, this filter produced excellent water.

    My only complaint is that the plumbing can be a little difficult to install without leaks. Be VERY sure the tubing is cut square and that tubing is connecteded very tightly. Otherwise, slow leaks are likely. Be certain that the gaskets are installed correctly when replacing filters. I had one come loose and get pinched while replacing a filter, resulting in a high pressure leak under my sink, but this was my mistake.

    I have never had trouble (in seven years) finding replacement filters. It helps to keep the part numbers, so I wrote mine with a sharpie on the filter.

    I'd like to see more options (screw on) rather than the compression fittings to make the plumbing a little more reliable.

    Faucet IS repairable. January 25, 2011

    "Faucet started leaking. We called Sears, and found that (1) you CAN'T REPAIR it, and (2) just to get the faucet alone would COST $110! A bust." The above is from another reviewer that started my search to replace my leaking faucet instead of trying to repair it. It can be repaired quite easily. 1) Pop off the screw cover on the end of the handle. 2) Unscrew the handle screw and remove the handle. 3) [this part is what stumped me] Unscrew the collar nut that "caps" the valve housing part. It will feel like it doesn't want to move, but it will. 4) Pop the valve out and replace the small spring and rubber gasket inside the housing. It's a Delta part #RP4993 available at ********** for about $4. 5) reverse the procedure to re-assemble and your good to go.

    The faucet on this filter has problems. April 17, 2012
    via Sears.com
    By kfhowell of San Jose, CA

    The problem with this filter is the faucet connection with the sink. It uses 2 toogle bolts to attach to the sink and they will not stay tight Finally one of the holes on the faucet broke and I had to replace the faucet after one year. When I replaced it I I found that both toogle bolts had rusted and were also ready to break. I replaced the faucet with one manufactored by Ecodyne that I bought at *****. It has a single threaded shaft of brass that is both the water intake and the fastener for washers that cover both sides of the 1 1/4 hole on the sink. Everything is brass so there is no rusting. I like this filter but you will eventually replace the faucet.

    Kenmore 2-Stage Drinking Water Filter January 01, 2012

    Pros:
    fast filtering,good taste,Long life
    Cons:
    Dispenser is made of plastic

    I had a ISE hot water dispener and the tank sprung a leak. I decided to replace the hot water dispenser with a water filtering system. Upon inspecting the water filtering system I found the dispenser to be made of plastic and the mounting using two toggle bolts to be very poorly engineered. I decided to use the existing hot water dispenser and adapt it to the water filters. After under sink installation I found the filtering part to be excellent and it works fine. The drinking water dispenser provided is trouble waiting to happen. Beware!

    Kenmore 2 stage filter - Extra Repair Tip for the Faucet Valve October 06, 2011
    via Sears.com
    By Alfontso of Baltimore, MD
    See all of this author's reviews

    I was pleased to find the repair tip when my faucet started leaking. I checked out the Delta part at H*** D**** where they had a Danco branded replacement. The two pack valves had two types of spring. The one you need is the pyramid shape spring. That was $3.98. For $9.98 you get a 50 piece bulk pack. Figuring that this valve is going to split again on more that two occasions, I took the 50 pack.

    The trick to get the rubber seal back into place was to smear it with a drop of canola or vegetable oil. It then slipped into place much more easily. After assembly the faucet started leaking again within hours. I pulled it apart and looked for another split in the rubber. It wasn't there, but there was a mark on the metal valve plate. I cleaned this off and put caloa oil on the metal plate to lubricate the seal.

    The oil blew out immediately I turned on the faucet and it has not leaked since. And I still have 49 valve seats left... :-)
