I found this when looking for an inexpensive way to filter water for brewing in the garage. I also purchased the carbon filter (separately) and some quick connects (1/2" NPT threads from Brewer's Hardware). Now I can connect it directly to my garage sink and have clean water without having to haul it from the kitchen upstairs. The flow rate is only slightly below the full rate of the sink so I can fill an 8 gallon tank very quickly.

I wish the threaded ports were metal instead of plastic because I think over time this will wear out and eventually break but the rest of the housing is solid and works as advertised. Used this to filter gelatin out of a beer and a hard seltzer I was clarifying and it works great. Both came out clear.

The filter was easy to hook up I attached it to my two barrel fermenter with TC fittings and I use it to filters the beer prior to kegging

Effective very easy to use!

Fantastic. This will help me in my small operation with limited space.

Works well. I use two inline to filter my water. I smashed an oring once by being careless but have never had any other problems.

This is just a big plastic cannister - filter block sold separately. Also remember that this thing has 1/2" FPT connectors so don't forget to add two more quick-connect devices of your favorite type to your order. I've been using mine for about a year or so fairly regularly as part of my pre-brew water treatment plan. I have chloramine-treated city water and have been told that running slowly through a carbon-block filter will get rid of most of that plus my downstairs water tap sometimes spits out rust (rental housing what can you do?) so this helps on both fronts. The O-ring still seals well the only drips I ever get are when I forget to seat my quick disconnect hose properly (or if I forget to open the valve on my brew kettle before I turn on the water-- woops!). It's solid and durable enough to put up with mistreatment. Mine's usually flopped around loose between my sink and brewpot so it falls over all the time.
