AQUATICLIFE 10" x 2.5" Translucent Refillable Reusable Water Filter Cartridge for DI Resin and Other Media

Arrived on time, sturdy and excellent quality

I use this for my refrigerator icemaker so I don't have to buy those expensive pre-packaged filters. I just fill the canister with de-ionized resin and carbon, then pop into a standard water filter outer shell. Much better filtration and cheaper to use!

Great compatible empty filter cartridge and really fast arrival but gotta deduct a point or two for a product label applied directly to the filter housing. Neither 70% nor 91% isopropyl (rubbing) alcohol could remove the last traces of this obnoxious adhesive, but 190 proof ethanol and a lot of friction seem to have done the trick. I'll try a different brand next just because of the hassle of removing this sticker. Otherwise totally acceptable. Includes a pair of foam pads for above and below DI resin. Refilling DI canisters yourself ensures fresh effecient resin and allows for really tight packing to somewhat mitigate the settling of the heavier cation resin fraction that always happens with loosely pre-filled MBD-DI canisters. Compatible with 3D-printed filling/tamping kit for standard 2.5x10 DI cartridges. Would definitely buy again if no sticker on the canister could be assured.

NICE

Was dubious if this would work for a whole house ion resin bead water softener but it works perfectly!

completely fails at only 70 psi. the tube collapses and water goes in through the threaded part of the canister instead of the expected water entry port

Bought this to replace my homemade carbon filter element. Previously I used a string filter covered with plastic wrap (to get full downward flow) and painstakingly loaded the carbon around the filter. Avoiding the O-ring or it would not seal. NOW....I fill this thing with activated carbon, put in the filters, screw the cap on, and put it in the filter housing. It gives me full flow (instead of short circuiting like the junk from the big name manufacturers) and is easy to load and install. Take less than 1/10th the time now. If you use it for drinking water, be sure to sanitize your filter system.

Great product and exactly as described. Shipped quickly! Nice to have a company send out a notification asking if we were happy with their product and service. So rare in today’s world.
