I see wonderful reviews of the item made by theis company in China. I have had many plastic molds made, and they are not cheap, but it seems that those that created failed to research the pressures developed over time in the housing. For the last 10 years I have used this company's creation replacing them every 3 to 6 months for the last 10 years. Yes, really dumb since I could have bought the top of the line reverse osmosis systems several times over. Yes I have really nasty water heavy in iron which makes the filters shut down after 30 days. This is the last one I will bite the bullet nextime and go for a good RO unit. A hint put p[ants around your sink then the rupture spray will not be wasted ;) I have tried several ways to fix them from marine grade epoxy, it worked for 2 weeks. It does seal leaks on boats underwater but is not very effective on this plastic tube. Large heat shrink tube haha well that was a total failure since it deformed the tube holding the cap and it blew off . All I can say if they, or someone else would machine this from stainless steel I would pay 100 bucks for it as it does work, just not as a poorly designed plastic hunk of junk. I doubt that any plastic would work for an extended time. The plastic industry learned this in the hard way back in the late 80's or early 90's when schedule 40 pipe was used for cold water lines and eventually ruptured. This device deserves the Darwin award for a poor design. Obviously they designed this product to fail. I could take it when Amazon prime had them for 12 or 13 bucks but they are back to 25 bucks now making it a foolish purchase. This is just the opinion of one who has a cupboard full of these units that leak like a colander ;). An edit after tonight when I could not one 4 ounce glass of supposed filtered water IT IS A DAMN ZERO this is nothing more than corporate greed they have had many bad reviews over the years and I have had it with them they got my ;ast contribution to their bottom line. Junk needs to be called out and they have had plenty of time to correct the problems and did not. and thus my confirmation they do not really care about the consumer just selling this poor filter zero zero zero time for a new classification JEFF oh and I use chrome and fire tv work it out
