Cracks and short life span for cartridge
I've had this faucet mount for close to a year. While the water does taste good, the short cartridge life and the eventual cracks that the housing develops after a while makes this a useless product. The cartridges almost always clogged up so badly to a trickle even before the indicator went to 3/4 full. This mean more frequent costly replacements. Now that the housing has developed cracks and water spits out from 3 different places, we can't even turn it on anymore. Considering the many reviews with the same problems, it's obvious it's inherent in the product and there's no reason to buy another. Now on to another solution!

Getting ready to pitch my third one
After our first one leaked, we thought it was faulty and bought another. After a few months, that one started leaking too. We wrote to PUR, and they sent us a free coupon for a replacement. It's been about 4 months now and this one is leaking like crazy too, so now we're looking into other options.

Leaky but better than a Brita.
The good thing about this product is it's convenient in the sense that you don't have to fill up a pitcher and the water quality is good. The annoying part is a) the filters are expensive and you go through them QUICKLY (i.e. about two weeks for my, my wife, and our 3-month old); and b) the damn thing leaks so I am constantly tightening, taking it off and putting it back on, etc. etc. This is super-annoying because it squirts and spurts right on you as you're trying to do the dishes. Major design flaw. We'll live with it because we like the water, but this is not really a very good product at all. Unfortunately it seems like the best thing without going to another class and spending major $$.
