I paid at least $12 extra for the "Ultimate Stainless Steel Style" PUR faucet-mounted water filter at WalMart, compared to the "Chrome" version (which I had before and knew was plastic), only to find out that it is plastic too. That it's only designed to look like stainless steel.
PUR CSR reply to another misled consumer:
"I sincerely apologize for the confusion regarding our faucet mount system. The unit has a plastic housing and is painted Stainless Steel. I hope this information helps!"
The word "Style" listed in smaller font after the "Stainless Steel" part should have tipped me off. But isn't it natural to expect that the product is inherently different, when the price is 50% more? Especially when the higher priced one doesn't even have the neat reflective properties as the cheaper Chrome one?
Anyway, I'll be returning this then.
