Description of Pur Ultimate FM-8100 Faucet Mount Vertical Filtration System, Chrome
Product Dimensions: 8 ounces Shipping Weight: 2.9 pounds Shipping: Currently, item can be shipped only within the U.S. ASIN: B00007E84C Item model number: FM-8100Eliminate harmful chemicals and unseemly odors and flavors from tap water with this faucet-mounted, vertical filtration system from Pur. The new Ultimate filtration line improves on Pur Advantage models, eliminating additional contaminants such as cadmium. It also reduces cryptosporidium, giardia, lead, mercury, asbestos, copper, zinc, and sediment 96 to 99.99 percent, plus lowers chlorine levels and lessens discoloration.
This stylish, chrome-plated system attaches to the faucet head--so water flows directly through the filter to the sink. Assembly instructions, including a video, are available on the Pur Web site. Tilting the filter back allows unfiltered water through for household chores such as dishwashing.
Water flows through the system at a rate of 2-1/2 liters per minute with pressure levels of 60 PSI. An automatic safety monitor (ASM) notifies users when it?s time to replace the filter. Filters last approximately two to three months and may be purchased in bulk. While Pur filters rid water of many harmful chemicals, coloration, and bad flavors, they do not soften water or remove fluoride. This item weighs 3 pounds when shipped. --Jessica Reuling
Tools and Hardware Reviews of Pur Ultimate FM-8100 Faucet Mount Vertical Filtration System, Chrome
Customer Review: Nice looking and really does the job it's supposed to do
Summary: 5 Stars
The chrome look of this unit is quite nice and really does look like chrome (doesn't look cheap like some other metallic plastics), matching chrome fixtures nicely. But the important part is that this filter really does its job. You'll find at Pur's website that the Pur Ulitmate is NSF certified to effectively filter 28 contaminants listed in NSF Standard 53, whereas some competing products, including a popular disposable model that doesn't use cartridges, claim certification for less than a third of those. I'm sure there are truly comparable filters out there, but check the specs before you buy. Flow rate seems reasonable to me. I can fill up my 12-cup coffee carafe in under a minute, and I don't mind taking a couple of extra seconds for the peace of mind that I'm drinking cleaner, safer water. After all, I won't be needing it for washing dishes or taking a shower.
It's very easy to install, and it seems more durable than an older generation Pur faucet-mount filter I had that developed leaks after a while. This one has been working for almost a year with no leakage at all.
