Sally,

Have you used yours yet? I asked about it on the forum and got mixed reviews. Some said it was very hard to pump and that was a big consideration for them. Thanks.

Last year I purchased a TRK Drip Filter from

Homestead Products

They carry the full line of Katadyne filters. Homestead Products pays all shipping costs & offers a $50 gift certificate towards other merchandise.

My experiences with this vendor have been excellent.

Best Wishes,

Sally,

Is Galyan's a nation wide chain? We have it close to us and they didn't have them when I checked a few months back. Are you located in midwest?

Homestead has been slow at times (usually due to back-orders) but they have treated us with integrity as well.
