1) does the tap leak 2) how long will my refrigerator door be open to fill an 8-10 ounce glass? 3) how long does it take to fill (filter 23 cups) container?

The tap did not leak. It does not take long to fill a glass...maybe a few seconds. It takes about 10 minutes or so to filter the water. I would not recommend this container though. We were changing the filter VERY often, as the water began to smell and taste extremely bad after about 3 weeks. It seemed that the filter was actually tainting the water.

My tap does leak...I have to keep a towel under the container. It takes a few seconds to fill a glass. The water filters rather quickly to fill the container. I do not recommend this water system. The filters are very expensive and don't last long. When my filters are gone, I will no longer use this system.

Yes the tap leaks for 3-5 seconds directly after using it. Doesn't take long to fill glass though. We put about 2 pitchers of water in when empty and takes about 10 min to filter. I would not recommend this product.

I love my every drop water filter. I use it for a glass of water and to fill up a gallon water jug. I used it to brew coffe and cook pasta. The clear opening on the top is about 3 inch wide and if you slow drip into a container you won't have to worry about your faucet on stray.

This is my favorite little dude for making a nice cup of coffee. We use the V60 03 for makingour Iced Coffee...It takes 3 hours for us to make 2 Gallons of coffee with the big ones. You don'twant to make multiple 'cups' of Hot coffee with a bigger filter. :)

Mine is made for 5 oz. CupsNo problem with fall out. But would have preferred a shorter one. This one takes care of a family, too much for a single. How ever, won't have to refill for a year!

I've had my diffuser for just about 10 days. I am on my 5th cup! I follow all of the instructions and have it on about 12 hours per day. 5-8pm on 50 minutes-2 hour setting and 8pm-6am on the 9 hour setting. I found a leak yesterday afternoon, replaced the cup, ran it over night on the 9 hour setting. When I got home from work, I put it on my regular 3 hour setting. Before bed, went to empty the cup and add a night blend - another hole. I LOVE this diffuser - maybe I got a REALLY BAD batch of cups....and now the site is out of replacement cups. I loved it so much, i ordered 6 more for my house and three as gifts. I'm hoping the new ones will have longer lasting cups. I've had my diffuser for just about 10 days. I am on my 5th cup!

I'm not sure what you mean by quickly :) Mine kind of trickles down but it doesn't take but a few minutes for it to go through. As long as you press the filter well into the base so that it sort of makes a clicking sound, I think it is ok. Also, I can definitely taste the difference when the filter is in place and working - at the end of the two months, if I've used the pitcher a lot, my water starts tasting chlorine-y again. That's how I know the filter works :)

Hello Vera, I don't know why - all I can say is how I use it, and that I am happy. I use the typical round filters on top of the filter supplied, since I do not wish to clean it each time. I use a mug, so it takes 2 1/2 scoops for the strong coffee I love. My mug and the supplied mug hold the same amount of liquid. I timed it, and it takes 3 1/2 minutes from the time you push the button until it stops dripping. I then tip the unit to get every drop, remove the paper filter, and I have my morning coffee, the way I like it and saved a ton of money rather than the premeasured pods. It shuts itself off after the 3 1/2 minutes is up; but you cannot turn it off once it is on. It is so small, it would easily fit in my travel case when I go out of town. I am so happy with this that I am giving it as a Xmas gift as well. It is exactly what I wanted! I hope all this helps you, and you are welcome to ask me any other questions you may have. Happy Thanksgiving, Suzanne

Only a few secs to brew so you would only be limited by how fast you can empty refill and tamp the filter basket. get two more portafilters and two assistants and you're good for about 400 cups an hour or a good buzz, whichever comes first.

I fill my 10 oz cup in less than 3 minutes using a #2 cone. It would be faster but I like to pour slowly and around the edge to make good contact with the grounds. I also agree with the other gentleman that the size of the grind makes all the difference.John

Well, for one 8 oz cup of coffee, it takes about two minutes. It doesn't seem any slower than a regular drip coffee maker. The only thing is you have to stand ready and keeping pouring in the water.

They make a 4 cup and 5 cup model. I bought the 4 cup. I fill it to the top, but there was or is a 5 cup model that I owned previously. I didn't realize it when I bought it. The cups are only 6 oz, not 8 oz, why they do it that way escapes my logic, but look for the 5 cup model in the descriptions.

This one basically stores only 8oz. which is one cup. The others will let you go up to 12 oz. per cup sepending upon you desire. There is only enough room for a coffee mug in the catchment area. Often I fill a mug and then pour it into my tall covered mug from home, so I don't spill coffee. Since I got this, several of my colleagues have purchased these also.

To be more specific just did a timing for you. It took approx. 12 seconds to drain 4.5 ounces. Hope this helps

It takes about 3 minutes when the unit is over night and the water is not heated. If the water is already heated after a cup, it takes about a minute. I can go get my paper and it ready to enjoy my coffee with the paper. Hopes this works. If you get it make sure you use the filters

I have had this pump for at least 6 months now and it is still working. it will fit several 5 gal jugs. I basically use it for my coffee and it fills up to 8 cups in about 8 pumps. a 160z glass in probably 2 pumps. get it it works. I have had the cheaper one's and they lasted about 1 week.

I have not noticed a change in water flow between the original filter that comes with the new filter unit and the replacement filters that I have used. I have been using the Culligan water filter system since May of 2012 and have replaced the filter many times. I replaced the water filter about 2 weeks ago. Your question made me curious about how much water flow I am getting thru the new filter so I did a measurement test. The test result shows that it takes me 7 seconds to fill one 8 ounce cup full of water. Of course, the flow decreases as the filter is used and it reaches the time to replace the filter. The water pressure in my home is 82 PSI (measured by my water company). I hope this information is of use to you.

Yes. I just filled mine with 10 ounces of water, but that was practically overflowing. 8-1/2 ounces is probably the right amount of liquid.
