Pentek R50-BB Pleated Reusable Water Filter Review

Pentek R50-BB Pleated Reusable Water Filter
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Features says 50 Micron. Description says 30 micron. Paper label with filter says 50. So that is probably the correct number.
Bought 2 to replace a pair in tall housing. the inner hole measures 1 in. Apparently that changes with brand or something. My old filter joiner that lets me stack a pair in the housing wouldn't work with these filters.The old one was too big.

Watts 116101 Standard Faucet with Air Gap, Brushed Nickel Review

Watts 116101 Standard Faucet with Air Gap, Brushed Nickel
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Received my order today, It was the correct type, a Standard 3-Tube Air Gap Faucet for RO systems. The product is of high quality and exactly the type of faucet I expected.

Just an FYI: due to the corrosive properties of RO water and the brine water traveling through the Air Gap Faucet you should expect to need to replace the Air Gap Faucet every several years, I have needed to replace mine 3 times in 13 years. I think the next time I will just replace the whole RO system.

I gave it only 4 stars because I don't know for sure which product I actually received. The Box is labeled Watts Premier Part# 116054 which according to the Watts website is the "Brushed Stainless Steel Air Gap Faucet" however the UPC tag# 9935-"116054", also on the box, clearly says "Brushed Nickel Air Gap Faucet" which is Watts Part# 116101, since brushed Nickel and Stainless look so similar I am not sure it is going to matter. But I will update after install and let you know which item I think I actually received. Perhaps Watts sells the same faucet under two descriptions and prices.

Update: I am fairly certain the faucet I received is Stainless Steel, even though the description on the box says "Brushed Nickel" The faucet clearly does not have the same bluish hue the new Brushed Nickel kitchen faucet has.

LG LT600P Cyst Reducing Refrigerator Replacement Filter, 1 Pack (Part Number 5231JA2006B) Review

LG LT600P Cyst  Reducing Refrigerator Replacement Filter, 1 Pack
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I ordered the 5231JA2006B/LT600P LG Refrigerator Replacement Water Filter Cartridge
removes the following impurities from your drinking water:

99.35% of Lead at pH 6.5
99.31% of Lead at pH 8.5
91.20% of Mercury at pH 8.5
96.70% of Mercury at pH 6.5
96.30% of Benzene
99.99% of Cysts
95.90% of Atrazine
99.09% of Lindane
93.06% of 2,4-D
97.60% of Chlorine
99.30% of Turbidity
99.90% of Particulates (Class I)

HOWEVER, instead I received the 5231JA2006A LG Refrigerator Replacement Water Filter Cartridge
removes the following impurities from your drinking water:

97.4% of Chlorine
93.2% of Particulates (Class I)

You can pick up the "A" cartridges for about $30, and they only remove Chlorine and 93% particulates.

I was unable to return via the web, and now have to contact Customer Service.

This the second Amazon approved vendor who sent me the wrong or bogus item
