MILIPORE STERITOP = Junk

Sorry bro who did you go with? I like autofill by fox but I think it's PES membrane looking for pvdf in the future I believe. All my finished good is thru foxx now and very happy with all of it.

I just went with a Whatman syringe filter coz I didn'tknowif I can use a hand pump vaccum on the foxx bottletops. Hey bro do you know If I need the cradle for the Foxx or does it just plug in the same as the millipore? I ordered nalgene filter from another supplier but its pes , I have used eo and G solvents but it has to be room temp so It wont break.

Go with Celltreat bottletop filter systems . They are on e-Bay . Works great !
Cheap too...(I got the 250ml model)

How did the PES filter hold out? I am new in the game, but what I have read the PES filter can be damaged easily, or what is your experience?

Had the cup separate from the base of filter, lost media everywhere. Very poor choice of design to put the structurally weakest point of the unit there. Switched remainder of liquid to foxx autofill and rocked it on out. GPZ has promised to replace these filters with sum other stuff for me fwiw

DO NOT USE hope this helps someone. ALSO, as reccomended by a friend. Place whole filtering apparatus into pie pan b4 beggingining. I'd have another 50ml now if I had. Thankful I caught the leak b4 I left for work.

Bout and 1/8" of separation when lightly squeezing. Total junk.

Highly reccomend foxx, doubt I will go anywhere else

Lost 300mls of bold 300 from that same thing. It was leaking and I went to pickit up and put it a bowl, splat the wwhole top gave and lost it all. 8 out of 12 leaked.

Go with PVDF or nylon

Sickening. If this thread saves someone else from similar fate, not a total loss. Some dumb ass engineering tbh, don't see how this product made it to production
