Kit doesn't complete installation
Careful what you buy. This kit is same as most expensive one minus key parts to complete hook up. As you can see by the first picture, you need a water shut-off valve. In order to change filter without having to turn off the whole house, a 1/4" Shark bite ball valve does the trick. Costs 8 bucks. Then the second pic shows the adapter to go from garden hose to 1/4", again, not supplied by Keurig. And while I'm at it, what maroon would design a garden hose inlet? So you could hook it up to your washer connection? You sell a kit that has the adapter in it for forty dollars more? Maybe that's how they do it in Europe? So this fitting is a bit more complicated. Had to get two fittings. First a garden hose to 3/8" copper squeeze connection with grommet. A d 3/8"-1/4" straight squeeze connection. You don't need the grommet on the 3/8" side, but will use the 1/4" grommet. This setup costs another 8 bucks for a total of $16. Still less then the forty extra Keurig charges for their kit. I mounted mine to the wall because later plan to add my ice maker to filter. Hope this review helped.

Came with all parts necessary except instructions
I would ding the product for having no instructions, but it's pretty simple to figure out. There's the bracket that mounts to the back of the Keurig and holds the filter cap (mounted using four included screws). The cap has two threaded holes on either side, clearly marked "IN" and "OUT". The filter itself screws into the bottom of the cap. Also included was 12 feet of 1/4" NSF 58 tubing rated at 230 PSI, two threaded fittings for the cap, three quick connect L fittings, an adapter for the back of the Keurig (although our B150 already came with one) and a quick connect valve (perfect, now I don't have to buy one to tee off of the fridge line). Ordered Friday afternoon, asked for next day delivery (I wanted to do the install this weekend), and received the item before noon on Saturday.UPDATE: I just finished the installation. It was very easy. I had to run to the hardware store and pick up a tee fitting to splice into the existing tubing running to the fridge. I used one of the L fittings on the adapter out of the back of the unit to angle the tubing up. The second fitting, I attached to the OUT of the filter cap in order to angle it down. I cut 8-10" of the supplied tubing and made that short connection -- it's very neat and the L fittings ensure that I don't have a bunch of tubing jutting out behind the unit. I cut roughly half of the remaining tubing to attach to the IN and to the brass compression tee I picked up at the store (the Keurig sits right next to the fridge). I still have one quick-connect L fitting, one adapter, and about five feet of tubing left. I much prefer extra parts than not enough! I turned the water supply back on and, surprisingly, did not turn the kitchen into a kiddie pool. I turned the B150P on, it began to pull in water, told me it was heating the water up. I checked the back of the unit and no water was leaking at any time. During the heating cycle, the B150 threw an error stating that the water supply had been interrupted. My guess is that the water pressure was low while the filter became saturated. It may have also been the ice maker running. I pressed resume and, after a roughly five minute heating cycle, the B150 told me I was ready to brew a cup! Unfortunately, I don't have any K-Cups! Off to Kroger I go!UPDATE: 2013-04-09: One month later and everything is working great! I haven't seen any more of those water supply errors and my wife and I have brewed nearly 100 cups of coffee, cappuccino, and cocoa. No leakage and the coffee tastes great!. 5 star rating confirmed!

So Simple Even A Caveman Can Do It
First thing to know is this "filter kit" contains just the filter and bracket to mount to the Keurig. It does not come with any tubing or connectors. You can buy a kit on here that comes with all that, or a trip to your local hardware store will get you everything else you need and probably at a cheaper cost then the complete kit on here anyway. The later option is what I did and I followed a great idea from another reviewer here on adding a 3-way valve to flush the filter when you change it. I have my waterline from my fridge that I cut and put a 3-way valve into to connect this. That runs into a water valve that I can turn off water to the entire unit if I spring a leak or need to make some other change without having to turn off water to everything again. Then that goes into the filter, out of the filter to another 3-way, out of the 3-way each line goes into another valve. One valve connects to the water tank inlet and the other I can hook another long piece of tubing on and run to my sink to flush the filter. You need to flush the filter for about 5 minutes when you change it to get the carbon out so you don't put that in your Keurig. Turn off the valve the the water tank, turn on the valve to the sink and let it run. Then reverse and you are good to go. Having this filter for me makes a huge difference to the taste of the coffee. Well worth all the hassle and trouble to get this and get it connected. If you enjoy great tasting coffee, start with pure water and you will never drink coffee made with unfiltered water again.

Great Coffee Every Time!
If you like great tasting coffee coffee from your brewing system, having a charcoal filtering system is a must! The Omnipure filter kit was the "missing link" to smooth tasting coffee. Whenever you have a brewing system with a plumb line, water can sit in the line between brews and become stagnant. It's why most people with water filling tank systems allow their tap water to run a bit before filling the tanks to get a more fresh dispensing from the faucet (which is no longer possible with plumb connected systems). So, having the Omnipure filter kit attached allows the water in plumb systems to become "purified" through the charcoal filtering system for a fresh tasting cup of coffee with every brew. In my opinion, it is a "must have" for plumb systems, as it removes any bad aftertaste from coffee due to stagnant water in the plumb lines.

Made with Cheap Parts
I've had it installed for <6 months and had to R&R it. A shark-bite fitting WILL NOT hold water now - so a one-time-use shark bite fitting is very cheaply made. It appears to be built-in so I'll have to by a whole new assembly; that's quite a racket.
