Designer Water Filter Reverse Osmosis Faucet Antique Bronze Save 20% Off

Designer Water Filter Reverse Osmosis Faucet Antique Bronze
  • Retrofits most brands
  • Smooth operating ceramic disk valve for long life operation and controlled flow
  • High reach neck design of 12" (305mm)
  • Unique protective spout tip prevents after drip
  • Can be Air Gap or NON Air Gap with its removeable Air Gap Module

For the most part, we were pleased with this RO faucet. We like that the faucet head itself swivels. It took us far longer to install than we had anticipated, but that is no fault of the RO faucet. The faucet itself was easy enough to install, but then we had to connect it to the RO filter''s existing line, and this required a trip to Home Depot, since the faucet and it''s tubing did not come with a connection device. While the color is called Antique Bronze, in reality, it does not match with other company''s oil rubbed or antique bronze fixtures. It looks far more like antique COPPER. Would I buy it all over again? Probably. If our local Home Depot or Lowe''s, or even our local plumbing supply store had carried them in stock, then I would have looked at the coloring, and bought one from them instead. After traveling to five stores, and calling one on the phone, our last option was to purchase one on line.

DB-Tech Multi-Purpose Pressurized Steam Cleaning and Sanitizing System

DB-Tech Multi-Purpose Pressurized Steam Cleaning and Sanitizing System with Attachments - Great Handheld Steam Cleaner For Bed Bug Treatment - Clothing, Fabric, Garments, Indoors, Outdoor, Kitchen, Bathroom, Shower, Closet, Patio, Garage and CarI have reviewed many hand held steamers and decided to buy this one mainly because it has a flexible hose and that was a complaint that many customers had for the steamers that they purchased. I hate to clean but when I got this steamer I went crazy. My bathroom shines, all my applicances look brand new and this actually got the stains out of my acrylic kitchen sink all with very little "elbow grease." I have a glass top stove and this cleaned up all the burned on stains. This has awesome power, does not drip and can even be refilled as soon as it runs out of water. There is no warranty with this product and that concerned me at first. I contacted the company via email asking about replacement parts should I ever need them and was told that parts are available.

This steamer is awesome! It heats up fast and the steam is hot enough to do a good job on many tasks. I originally bought it to help get rid of a minor bed bug problem (which it did) but then used it to clean my ceramic cooktop stove; steam wrinkled curtains smooth while on the rod (because ironing is not fun but steaming is); and getting fold creases out of my winter sweaters. I constantly think of new uses for this steamer. It''s fairly compact and although it holds only about 6 oz. of water, the steam lasts for about 15 to 20 minutes before I have to refill. Usually, whatever job I''m working on doesn''t even take that long.

After reading the positive posts, I decided to try this product. The product arrived the next day! (I have Amazon prime) So, I was very impressed with the shipping speed. I opened up the box, read the directions and gave it a whirl. It took a few minutes to get hot and then the initial burst of steam seemed pretty powerful. But when you want to continue to clean for more than 5 seconds at a time, the machine seems to run out of steam and you have to wait a few seconds before getting the powerful steam again. Maybe the product I got was defective but I could not get the same results as the other posters. I returned the product and received an email saying I will get my refund...oh well, I did try.

I have wanted a steamer like this for so long. This did not disappoint. The dirt, dust and sticky mess just melts off! Fantastic on cabinets, baseboards, grout, appliances, around faucets, etc. The grime just liquifies and can be wiped away with a rag. The steam lasts for a long while and the cord is long enough! Would definitely recommend.

I bought this as a "last ditch" effort to resurrect my shower. I live on the Florida coast, where the humidity is very high, and we have a big problem with black mold growing on the shower walls and floor. Scrubbing and cleaners just didn''t work well. This little steamer does. It was a big job for the little unit and I had to refill the water (6oz) about 8 times, but it destroyed the mold and took the stains with it. I''m very pleased with the results and think this is a great little tool that''s kind of fun to use. The steam is consistently hot and the attachments were very well thought out. It''s relatively light and I love the fast heat, long-long power cord and flexible hose extension. Impressive product for the price. VERY PLEASED!

Holmes HWF75PDQ-U Wick Humidifier Filter Save 7% Off

Holmes HWF75PDQ-U Wick Humidifier FilterThis filter is just as good as the original. I have been using one of these filters for over 4 months now and there is no evidence of deterioration or mold whatsoever. I will offer two helpful hints to potential consumers: (1) Make sure you use an antibacterial additive in your humidifier every time you refill your reservoirs and (2) Always rotate your filter upside down each time you add water. This will GREATLY increase the lifetime of your filter. Also, the twin pack is a great buy!

For those of you getting only a week or two of usefulness from these filters, on a whim I ran one through my dishwasher using regular detergent and a few dishes. I let it go through the hot dry cycle, but think it might be better to pull it out before that. Some of the plastic screen was distorted, but not badly. The webbing was disturbed a bit but not badly. I put it back in the machine on the next filter change and it has been acting like a brand new one. I have the little humidistat gauge on my unit, so as the filter goes bad it shows up on the gauge. My next test is to see how many times it can survive the DW. Will shorter cycles work? For those with high amounts of calcium in their water vs the manganese I have, maybe some vinegar instead of detergent. And maybe save up 2-3 filters and run a dedicated cycle. Those with aluminum cages on the filters might not like the DW detergents. Try it and add an opinion about it. I do think the engineering of these units where they rely on capillary action to pull water up into the filter is ridiculous. My water doesn''t have mold or mineral deposits aside from the orange maganese, it just gets dirty with dust kicked up by our traffic and the dog. The filters do get a brown tinge on the top as they stop working. I''ll also get a colorless, odorless bioslime in the reservoir and presumably in the filter. This may be what is being washed out as much as anything. But I''m going with the DW for now, otherwise I would go through 12-15 filters a season. I tried the silver nitrate balls in the reservoir, but they didn''t help.

I don''t know what''s wrong with these, but they need changed every few days, they will not wick the water!! I''d rather pay a little more & get the better ones. Bought a case of these last year & they lasted no time. Very disappointed!!

I bought three of the Holmes HWF75 filters and they lasted for less than a month. The top of the filter will dry out and not wick water. I hate to say it but I think they are designed to fail.

Cheaper option for my humidifier, but the quality isn''t as good (sometimes splits apart a bit), and doesn''t last as long.

Pentek SW-2 Standard Housing Wrench

Pentek SW-2 Standard Housing Wrench
  • Perfect for loosening a ""stuck"" filter housing

I had one other wrench that I had for a long time. I wanted a backup wrench. The first time I used this wrench, it cracked halfway around the ring. I was hardly applying any force on the handle. I then took my old wrench and took the filter housing off with it. The new wrench is useless. I have some plastic molding experience as an engineer and this plastic was either molded incorrectly or is the wrong grade of plastic.

I purchased Culligan HF-360A Whole House Sediment Filter and thought I needed a wrench... but one came with the filter. This one doesn''t say Pentek anywhere on it, it looks generic and it''s probably Chinese junk. It also feels flimsy and as others pointed out having more than one is probably a good idea. I bought several pretty cheap rubber strap wrenches and they not only work better but they won''t break when you''re applying some pressure... plus you can use them for other things like an oil filter. Sorry, I just dislike tools that only have one purpose in life and are not built to last so that''s why it gets only 3 stars... if it works fine changing a filter every month then I would be terribly surprised. I have a collection of various sizes of water filters I''ve used over the years in different homes (based on the unique water problems for each), and from several travel trailers, and I have never been able to get a tight filter off without one of these types of wrenches slipping or breaking and causing me some pain and lots of expletives. Do yourself a favor and buy a strap wrench! However, if this is what you want I paid a little under 4 bucks for it with free shipping so the price is right.

I bought one of these and it broke almost immediately. It broke so quickly i could not even get the housing off of my filter.

So I bought 3 more and only after they arrived, did I try again.

What I learned was that if you put Vaseline on the O-ring as well as the threads of the housing unit, the case goes on much easier, you don''t have to make it as tight and it comes off much easier in 6 weeks or so when it''s time to change the filter again.

Since learning that trick, I have not broken another, however, i am ready, just in case!

I give these 4 stars due to the durability issue. It looks big, thick and heavy... but is easily broken.

That said, i would recommend this, just buy 2.

I used this wrench to remove the housing of the counter top water filter (Watts model CT-1). I had tried everything and failed to loosen the filter housing in order to change the filter. The wrench did help me to get the job done though it was one size larger than what it needed. The product has good quality and price. Service is excellent.

Stainless Steel & Plastic Replacement Filter

Stainless Steel & Plastic Replacement Filter - each - FilterThe product looked nothing like the picture, and didn''t fit the water bottle. You can tell the plastic was not of good quality. I would not trust this filter for the quality of filtering that it is suppose to have. It also looked like it was a used product and then resealed. I have returned it and I would not recommend anyone to buy this.

The water we have has so much chemicals in it I can''t stand to drink it. I had decided I wanted to lose weight and have a healthier lifestyle so I gave up soft drinks for water. I ordered this and I cannot taste any chemical at all. I am so pleased with this product. I will definitely by this again.

AIR PURIFIER HUMIDIFIER

AIR PURIFIER HUMIDIFIERGreat for my needs, not ideal for someone who needs a super humidifier or a super air cleaner. It is the size of a small cantaloupe, makes a lot of noise (soothing to me), and is useful on a 20m^2 area. However, it''s perfect for small places like a room or an office. I just put it on my desk and watch it spin around. It works by rotating a porous cylinder inside the water and driving it up and back onto the walls. I don''t see the water level drop much so I''m skeptical of it''s "humidifier" properties but at least as a placebo it works cheerfully.

I woke up the first night without a sore throat, which used to be the case since my bed is right next to the heat radiator. Cool engineering but not to be used for tough work.

After ordering 2 of these and paying 20dollars in shipping 1 arrived cracked and bent. Plus, I quickly realized that these only work for rooms up to 60sq.ft. (so the size of a bathroom?) Then found out because only 1 was actually broken DBROTH wouldn''t pay return shipping for either of them! I paid to ship them back for 8bucks total so why was it $10/each to get them here. I did finally receive a refund for the purchase price, but was out the return shipping amount. Don''t know if the item actually works or not....but I wouldn''t recommend purchasing anything from this company.

Jelmar #BK-2000 26OZ Clear Bath Cleaner EACH Save 17% Off

Jelmar #BK-2000 26OZ Clear Bath Cleaner EACHWe have very hard water and even using a whole house water filter and a water softener, we still end up with deposits in our toilets. I bought this CLR Bath and Kitchen cleaner because it says "Quickly cuts through calcium, lime and hard water deposists, soap scum, dulling film and dirt". It doesn''t do anything. I sprayed into one of our toilets and it foamed. Then after letting it sit awhile, I brushed it, stains were still there. I have better luck using plain bleach. Perhaps the bottle that I bought just had water in it. I''m going to take it back to the store and get my money back. I have found that CLR products have always been way over-hyped and have never performed as advertised.

I had a ton of soap stains in the bath room. I thought this thing would be a miracle worker but it works just okay! I would say its no better than lysol in the Kitchen and Bath for the heavy price tag I would probably not buy this product again!

Omnipure Q5633 Replacement Filter Cartridge

Omnipure Q5633 Replacement Filter CartridgeThis Carbon Filter is the most appropriate I have found, as a prefilter, upstream of an RO Filter. Since an RO filter is very delicate, it is indispensible for the input to the RO to be free from large particles as possible. Otherwise the RO would be unnecessarily overloaded, and would work at a much lower efficiency than it normally can. For those who are adept at working with mechanical systems, it is possible to purchase individual parts, and put them together. This way one can install a system that suits the specific potable water quality, locally. A lot of unnecessary parts could also be saved. Many other prefilters that target a specific contaminent could also be added, as well as an afterfilter to purify even the output of the RO. In terms of a prefilter, I have found this type, quite sufficient. The 12" type is specially more desirable, since it has mor capacity, in other words it lasts longer. According to product specification at the manufacturer''s site, I found this brand more suitable than others. Of course, that depends on how much one is willing to apportion for this system, and what qualiry of potable water one is after. The lower micron rating is a finer filter, and outputs cleaner water and therefore more expensive. However, to take advantage of the RO filter the most, it is much better to provide as a pure water as possible at the inlet.

your "change filter" light on the fridge will stay on with these filters. the original filters that came with the fridge have are clear so you can see the charcoal filter. these are solid plastic and you can not see the charcoal in the filter, so the sensor will read that it needs to changed. even though the filter numbers are the same they are not. it will fit but you will have to live with the light going off.

S C JOHNSON WAX 10122 32OZ Windex Out Cleaner

S C JOHNSON WAX 10122 32OZ Windex Out CleanerI''ve used this once on windows that hadn''t had a good cleaning in a couple of years. First, the sprayer is very easy to use. The connection to the hose screwed on without an issue, and there are three options on the dial to choose from (off, spray, clean). I was able to do my whole two-story house with about 20 windows in less than 45 mins. Overall, the windows do look much cleaner with no streaks, but there are some water marks left behind. The water marks are pretty hard to notice but that''s why I couldn''t give it 5 stars. Overall excellent price/performance.

I''ve been using it for over 10 years now and it works great. I recommend to not use their garden hose applicator, unless you have a second story window you simply can''t get to. I have had the best success (and use less of the product) this way (1) mix a little Windex outdoor into a small bucket of water (2) wet window with a hose (3) apply water-Windex mix with a scrubber part of a window washer squeegee (4) let set for a minute (5) rinse off with a hose. Yes, you do "scrub" the window slightly as you apply the water and Windex mix, but the real payoff is you don''t have to wipe the window dry.

I was so disappointed when my local grocery store stopped carrying this item, but delighted to find it at Amazon. Before, I discovered this product, I used to spend hours scrubbing my outside windows, then wiping them to try to eliminate every bit of residue left behind. Unfortunately, there would always be a few streaks after all that work.

This cleaner is easy to use, no wiping and it leaves the windows relatively streak-free. It also works through screens, which is a special bonus for me, because mine are difficult to remove. All in all, this is a great product if you want an easier way to clean outside windows.

Read Best Reviews of S C JOHNSON WAX 10122 32OZ Windex Out Cleaner Here

This product is a great idea for those of us who don''t have time to get out and scrub the windows. It makes a lot of sense to mix a concentrate to the water from a garden hose, which gives the pressure needed and makes rinsing easy.

If only it were so simple. The fittings are of such poor quality that the hose does not want to stay attached for very long, even with very low pressure. And the instructions tell you to manually brush or scrub any stubborn dirt prior to using the unit. What happened to the part where we don''t have to scrub manually?!

I spent a morning trying to clean my back windows (thankfully I didn''t do the frontsthe neighbors would''ve thought they were watching one of the 3 Stooges as the hose popped off, soaking me several times).

It gave me a good opportunity for comparison thougha bucket of water with a little bit of vinegar and a few drops of detergent, mopped onto the front windows and rinsed with a garden hose did a better job with less effort for less money and less of a mess in the same amount of time.

That''s what I get for trying to be lazy!

The Windex product would be ideal if it were of better construction, with better gaskets and tighter fit. I presume that the chemical solution is adequate. I''m not sure if it''s "green".

I would pay more for this product if it were better-built. And I would even buy concentrate refills. I think this is what happens to a good concept one the number-crunchers get a hold of it. Too bad.

This is an excellent product but hard to find. Just use it as directed. DO NOT let it dry on the windows or spray it when there is direct sun on the windows or you get streaks. Cleans lots of stuff and I was real happy that spiders drop dead shortly after a good bath of it. I live on a lake and the spiders, bugs, spider poop and webs are a real mess.
