Product Description
This advanced compound multi-stage water filter can eliminate over 90% of the fluoride, arsenic, and selenium from your tap water, in addition to chemicals, including VOCs, TOCs, chlorine, and other contaminants that create foul tastes and odors in your tap water. The Tap Master Jr. F2 has special Channel Blockers to ensure even filtration, and avoid problems which are found in other competitor granular filters. To maintain optimum fluoride filtration in your Tap Master Jr. F2 change the filter every 3 months or 500 gallons depending on the hardness of your water. Taste and odor purification will continue long after fluoride filtration. Please change your filter regularly. IMPORTANT NOTE: Some websites selling fluoride removing filters are using a figure of 5000ppm to indicate the filter life. In real world conditions this equals 300 gallons. The longer gallonage life that they imply with this figure can only be achieved in laboratory conditions, and not with municipal tap water which contains other substances such as calcium which are also filtered by the fluoride removing media. Tap Master Jr. series countertop water purification systems come fully assembled and include: Tap Master Jr. F2 countertop purification system w/filter Sink faucet diverter valve Additional 15/16" x 13/16" sink faucet adapter Super flexible connection tubing Heavy duty, long-reach chrome faucet Warranty card Installation instructions

Easy to install, good water pressure.,

This review is from: Tap Master Jr. F2 (with Fluoride Filter) Counter-top Water Filter (Kitchen)
First, the review::
**My water tastes completely different, and I noticed on the first sip. It tastes like water, instead of water that's been laced with some kind of weird aftertaste or partially steeped in a foreign substance. When I have a cup of tea, I find that even the tea tastes more crisp and simple. It's not hampered with odd flavors from whatever was in my water. And, since I enjoy my tea a great deal, this is good news to me. :) **Installation was really simple. I did it in less than five minutes while chatting with a friend on the phone with the phone pinned with my shoulder. Really low-effort. Just twisting a few pieces and using a little wrench dealie. No crouching under the sink or drilling holes. Not an intimidating process in the least. **Water pressure is surprisingly strong. I can fill a pot without it taking all day. **I have to move and travel frequently, and I know I can remove and re-install this in a snap, no matter where I have to go, without damage or interruption to the plumbing or water system of the next place. It's also compact enough to be packed into a suitcase without sacrificing a lot of room or adding inconvenient weight. **Overall, I'm impressed at how uncomplicated and unconfusing this setup is. I get filtered water quickly and can get on with my day. I think the price is also very fair, especially for the peace of mind I feel having filtered water and the better enjoyment of the taste in my drinks and cooking. Second, the basics:: I really know very little about water filtration so I had a few questions before I bought this item. I think that, for those like me, who don't know much about the process, it can be confusing trying to pick out a filter because what may be common knowledge to some people gets glossed over. Basic questions are sometimes not covered because it seems assumed that the potential customer should know them. In case there's anyone who is feeling that way, I'm going to offer a few basic tidbits about my experience with this filter in case it might be of use. If you're already comfortable with the basics of water filtration, this will be too simplistic for use, I'm sure, so never mind it. The product is much like the photo, except that the photo doesn't show how it connects to your water system, which I found confusing. Is it a tank? Would that mean it has a tiny capacity? Does it connect to the plumbing? Would I have to drill holes in the counter or sink? Thankfully, it was a no to all of that. What this unit is, is actually a fitting that goes onto the end of your faucet (not pictured) and a slender white tubing that connects from the fitting and into the tall, white unit, which houses a filter. When you turn on your water, water flows out of the tap as normal. (The fitting allows for this.) When you want filtered water, you pull a diverter pin on the fitting and the flow goes, instead, through the tubing, and into the filter, where it trickles down, is cleaned, and comes out the unit's own spout. When you are done, turn off the water as normal on your faucet, or push the pin back in and water will return to flowing from your faucet head. The filter unit does hold some water inside it after you're done, but it's not stored water meant for drinking. When you first turn on the water and divert it to the filter, wait a few seconds for the stagnant water to clear, then collect what you need. The filter doesn't need time to build up and process or slowly drip through. You just turn on the water and it starts flowing. There's no concern of capacity not meeting demand and the filtered water won't 'run out'. It comes out of the filter as quickly as it would come out of your faucet's tap. As for the tubing, it's not something you can really hide or cover, but apart from the potential aesthetic issue some people might have, there's no physical inconvenience of tangling or twisting or anything. (but really, you're already making the choice to put a mini white water tower on your counter, so do you care about aesthetics?) There's just enough lead for you to let it run back behind your sink and put the unit off to the side. While that may be a negative for some, the benefit of having an on-top-of-counter unit is that you don't have to do any tricky installations, I suppose. You just place the unit on your counter, twist off your faucet's current cap, twist on the unit's fitting, and you're done. If you're looking for a full house system or some really hardcore equipment, I don't think this is really what you're looking for, but if you're looking for inexpensive, quick to put in, easy use, for some good drinking and cooking water for you or your family, this has been a great purchase for me and I would recommend it for others.

Awesome filter.,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Tap Master Jr. F2 (with Fluoride Filter) Counter-top Water Filter (Kitchen)
I've only had this for 1 month, but I feel safe enough to give a 5 star review. The setup was easy as pie; no tools were needed at all, only two fingers. Screw off your faucet cap, screw on the filter director/regulator, and you're done. It was actually easier than attaching my old Brita faucet filter. That thing was a pain in the neck that leaked constantly, and got dirty because it was made of plastic, etc. The Tap Master F2's attachment doesn't leak at all (which is saying something with my old, crusty faucet), and is made of metal/chrome, so it blends in and can easily be washed off.
The picture above is misleading; there is a white hose that goes from your faucet to the filter. It's kind of stiff, so you may want to wind it around the filter and swing it back behind your sink knobs to keep it out of the way. The water tastes SO great. I made iced tea in the fridge with this right after I bought it, and WOW, I know why tea always tasted kind of bitter to me now; because the water was bad. Tea tastes soo good now. I can't stop drinking it. I love getting a cold glass of water. I make ice cubes with this too, and even those are nice. I feel healthier overall. Fluoride free is the way to be! I haven't yet changed the filter on it, but when I do, I'll update this review to tell how hard/easy that was too. Overall, money well spent!

Jury's still out,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Tap Master Jr. F2 (with Fluoride Filter) Counter-top Water Filter (Kitchen)
Well, I still run it through by Brita because it has a weird taste. I'm not sure if it's me just getting used to it, or what? I'm about 3 weeks in now - the jury is still out. I may update my review.
Also, where can one get replacement filters for this? Working for a manufacturer myself and selling products through catalog houses, I find it quite odd that I can't find a replacement filter available on Amazon??? Is there anybody out there that can point me in the right direction?
