I received my hydra tube and my GonG's for my solo fit amazingly well, however, all of the water in the top portion leaks down into the bottom section of the hydra tube, even when it's just sitting on its stand. To the point that it doesn't even have enough water to perc properly. If I add any more water, the bottom section will overflow and leak down into my Solo. There's also a ton of tiny bubbles in the joints and two tiny cracks, both inside at the perc joint.
Kind of disappointed with this piece, not sure if this was ever filled with water to test judging by the film on the glass when I received it. I'll message Steve and see what he'll do.
