not on mine. I couldn't begin to count the batches I have put through it and the seal is fine.

yep, and if you stick with the kits for the wash the end product is really quite good. run it through the filter two or three times though, it does make a big difference. some of the filter cartridges are a bit dense and flow very slowly, but I have found that boiling them beforehand helps free them up.
I will be going to a reflux next year when we move into our new house and I've got more room, but for the meantime air stills are brilliant - sit on the counter in the kitchen, no water required etc.
