I wouldn't bother taking this on vacation. It is rather bulky with lots of hoses. The version I bought came with garden hose threads, just like I wanted for my type of faucet. I have mine hanging on the wall about the sink. Not attractive at all but it works. The hoses are pressure fitted and could be getting lose and leaking if handled a lot. For traveling I would look for another solution, there should be plenty of filters designed for that use, though it wouldn't be impossible to travel with this if you really want to, just as long as you have sufficient adapters to hook it up to the faucet. I hope this helped. Alfred. I wouldn't bother taking this on vacation. It is rather bulky with lots of hoses.

Oh thank you to all, I didn't quite understand, I thought it had to be left permanently plumbed in in my bathroom for everyone to see!!!! So, I can remove ALL the equipment to a hide in cupboard (closet) when not in use, right? :-)

I have it installed over a single bowl rectangular stainless sink as well. It sits in the middle of my island and is a show stopper. It looks fabulous and not to tall to me. It's sleek design keeps it from being overpowering like so many other tall faucets. I've had this faucet for 2 years now and I still love it!

I use mine on the go and drop the pump in an old army surplus water container! I suppose if i wanted to create a situation where it was installed more permanently i could do that. Is this what you are trying to do?

This sink is not for actual faucet hook up. What I had to do is get an longer sprayer that connected to my faucet and used it like that. The portable sink is in front of my sink if that makes since. The only down side is I have to drop the hoes in a trash can because if I put the hoes in the sink the the water backs out and drips at the base. Great product tho.

It is easily installed under the sink and doesn't take too much room, you should be able to unplug it and take it with you.

Easily? Depends how limber you are! For me I would have to get down on my hands/knees, open the vanity, reach all the way to the wall (that's where its mounted at by the hot/cold water supply and flick the switch. For me, we leave it on all the time. Who cares? You can't hear it run, it uses virtually no power. I also have installed it at some rental properties because some tenants were complaining that it takes a few minutes to get hot water. PROBLEM SOLVED>>>>> Remember to place the pump at the furthest point away from the h/w heater. The hardest part for me was I had to hire an electrician to install an ac GFI outlet below the vanity. Me and electricity is NO BUENO.. Good luck. DB Easily? Depends how limber you are!

I run the unit 24/7. That is what is recommended in the owners manual. The unit has a very low power consumption and I would like to get the maximum benefit possible. It is small and therefore portable,so it can be rotated room to room.

I have it in a 3 BR 1 bath rental property with 3 people. They take showers one right after the other and said they don't run out of hot water whatsoever. It seems to do wonderful there. its been installed now for 5 months and no problems, tenants are very happy with it. I had to buyer the gas line, plumbing etc to where it tied in, but that's normal with any new installation. It was a tremendous savings over a traditional water heater, and the tenants and I are very glad we installed it. So much so, that I am installing the same one in a diner I own for the dishwasher. I think it will work great. Hope that helps. I have it in a 3 BR 1 bath rental property with 3 people. They take showers one right after the other and said they don't run out of hot water whatsoever.

It is for home. With water in it, it can be rather heavy. You have to take it to the sink to drain. I'm going to put mine in the bathroom to use next time so I can empty it in the tub.

I finally installed this faucet a couple weeks ago. We noticed that everytime we connect our portable dishwasher to it it leaks under the sink. I see water dripping from the center where the tubes go up into th ebody. Has anone ever seen this? Is there a fix? It only seems to happen when under pressure.

I installed the sink/faucet. They work very well. My wife and I HAVE NOT encountered any loud noises when turning the water on - in fact our faucet runs rather quietly. Has anyone encountered the sink not fitting flat, having a slight wobble/turn? Thanks

This is ready to use out the box with minimal assembly. Unit is heavy and requires proprietary mounts which are sold seperately. Recommend finding it a home under sink so you can utilize drainage for waste water. Hope this helps. Clean water makes everything taste better.

If you purchased a "portable unit" it DOES NOT get Installed....you just keep it handy and run water through it, into a jug or a glass or a Britta pitcher...and Bingo...you are drinking "structured water." &lt;3

It can be used at home. Yo can take it to the sink but you don't have to. It brings a hose in the back and you can put a bucket , open the hose and drain. I really love it and my client's love that the water remains hot.

Running it under the faucet worked just fine for me...set it in the dish drain to dry over night before putting it back on the phone...

You can just put it on the table besides your sink. So you don't need to move it to wash dishes or sink. There is a valve accompanied to let you very easily choose purified water or normal water. So you don't need to remove the whole filter.
