Product review (2 stars): Bought it for one small part. ..
It's exactly what is pictured. I purchased this because apparently there is no way to purchase the little metal part in the inside that the reject hoses connect to. I bought this for that one brass part to replace the one in the original because the metal tube on it roared away. As the other review states, you have to find a easy to get the hoses off  the original (I cut mine), then try and get the hoses back on. I managed to do it, but at the expense of bending the metal pipe in every which direction and needing to bend it back. Kind of frustrating that I paid 30 bucks to only use that 1 part.
I did receive the original base though, so I will have an extra if I ever need it. But after my experience, it almost wasn't worth my time with this filter system. Also, if your faucet is leaking from the back of the base, probably the same reason, buy this instead of the faucet head like I did. Felt like an idiot.
