Arrived in good order and fairly easy to hook up. I will make a couple of points that is not clearly written in the instructions. One being that you need to push the colored lines all the way into the female end until you feel it "set" into place. This will eliminate any hose leaks once you turn the water on. Second would be to make sure the elbow connections from filters 1,2, and 3 are tight prior to setting up anything. In my set up I had to separate the number 1 filter by removing the small black box (power for motor) then unscrew the 4 set screws and replace the elbow joint as it was leaking substantially after turning on the water. Taking these steps prior will save you a mess and aggravation.Now the unit itself is wonderful and water quality prior to set up was 206 ppm and after we are at 40 ppm. This is a significant reduction in harmful pollutants in our water supply. So the filters are doing their job and we are once again off the store bought bottled water. Installation took me about 2 hours from start to finish and I also had to rerun the line to the fridge/ice maker. Overall easy to install and would recommend this unit. If you have any question on your water pressure I would highly recommend getting the this model. I was on the fence due to the added increase in price but the pump has been used since I plugged it in answering my question whether I had enough pressure already or not. These systems need plenty of pressure to operate accordingly so if you have low pressure make the correct choice. Good luck and enjoy a glass of clean water. :-)
