Chamber Base (Jar) for Diatom D-1 Filters

The product was delivered quickly and packed well. Though it was not what I expected. The Jar is made of plastic. The original Jar was made of glass. The description is very vague.

I purchased a Vortex plastic replacement jar when my 33 year old Vortex D-1 mason jar cracked while I was tighting the Vortex motor assembly to the jar.

The plastic jar is cheaply made and can be cracked easily, so take great care when tightening the Vortex D-1 jar cap to the top of this jar.

Having the base is nice since it keeps the jar from falling over, like the glass Mason jar that came with my Vortex D-1 used to do from time to time.

As is the case with all Vortex products, it pays to shop around, since there can be significant differences in price for these items depending on where you purchase them.

Moreover, I have found quite a disparity in the price of this plastic jar. I purchased mine about two years for around $12. I have seen this jar retailing for as high as $35, so shop around before you buy one.

It's a cheaply made product that does its job no more, no less.
