It looks like the hoses supplied are wras approved, not the unit.
Avoid.
Btw i advise against those inline filters, eventually they get forgotten about and end up filled with huge amounts of biofilm - like grey ish slime.
Mains water in uk is wholesome by law. If you doubt that, contact your water supplier for info.

Well spotted!

Thank you for the advice and I will avoid the product.
I am just looking for something simple to test the drinking water from the cold tap in the kitchen as sometimes it tastes a little bitter.
I have a single mixer lever tap and any tips on which water filter faucet would be good which you can easily put on the tap?

Thanks

Don't add unnecessary things on to the plumbing system imo.

I won't add anything to the plumbing thanks, just something simple to out on the tap itself.
There are so many water filter faucets online but I don't which type will fit my kitchen tap.

The tap is part of the plumbing system. If there's something wrong with your water report it to the supplier you pay for the water. If not leave it alone.

If it's only you that thinks it tastes 'bitter' and it used to be okay, you may have a bad tooth. If the bitterness seems to build up with the length of time since the tap was last run it might be dissolved copper due to corrosion.

As others have said, first step is to report the issue to your supply water company.

Try using a filter jug and see if that makes a difference - although the cost of cartridges is a consideration.
