Pur Water Filter FM-5050C October 13, 2008 Save your money!! This is my second Pur water filter from Proctor and Gamble. My first started leaking after 5-6 months. After complaining PG sent a coupon for a new one. My new one just started leaking. The product looks nice and functions well, but it is not well made. Once we are done with the expensive filters this unit is going in the trash. So as I said before, get something else.
Seemed okay when I installed it October 12, 2008 It worked okay until it needed a new filter. My wife was unable to install the new filter successfully and the device leaked and the warning lights failed to illuminate to verify that the water was being properly filtered. I'll have to try and fix this when I get home. Hopefully there is not something wrong with the device. It was a bit expensive to toss it out with the filter after a few hundred gallons......
I wouldn't buy October 5, 2008 This is such a shame. I had a vertical 3 stage PUR filter and after about six months it sprung leaks. So, I decided to get their more expensive model. After a couple of weeks, the flavor button stopped working. I replaced the flavor cartridge and that didn't fix the problem. Plus, any tiny bump and the cover to the flavor packet would come right off.
This thing is too big for standard sinks. Washing pots and pans was not easy and you have to work around it.
I've owned this model now for about six months and it's leaking all over as well. In fact, the back pressure actually caused a pin hole in the faucet arm to develope and now I have to replace my faucet. Not totally the unit's fault because our water in Austin is very hard.
The biggest tragedy in this is that the water that actually comes out of this thing is outstanding. So clean that the water even tasted sweet. I just don't want the same problem in a couple of months all over aain. Guess I'll be scouring the web fo a viable replacement. Very disappointed.
Don't waste your money like I did! September 27, 2008 I should have believed all of the negative reviews. From the start it restricted the waterflow and progressively got worse until it stopped working altogether - 2 months after I bought it. JUNK!
I didn't mind the flavoring though, but I like diet drinks.
I can stop buying bottled water, vitamin water, and crystal light! September 2, 2008 I primarily purchased this in order to quit the bottled water habit for good. It was easy to install and the water tastes fantastic. No more hauling giant cases of spring water from the store and filling up my recycle bin with dozens of bottles a week!
I read a lot of negative reviews on the taste of the flavor cartridges, and was pleasantly surprised to find that I love the taste of the flavored water as well. I drink a lot of crystal light and vitamin water, and the PUR flavor cartridges are right on par with those types of drinks. If they could make the cartridges more like vitamin water by adding actual vitamin enhancements, this would be the perfect product for me. My filter came with the peach cartridge, and I will definitely be trying the other flavors as well. It takes about 5 full squirts to get a nice tasting beverage, but you can experiment and find out what works best for you.
This was a fantastic investment!!
