The tip you add to it after stirring the swab has a filter in it and I had to push so hard to get drops out that the tip came off and splattered all over the counter and me.

So I called the company and they confirmed that there is indeed a filter there and this could happen, so they are sending me more.

The filter is not needed as I also have FlowFlex brand that I got at Costco and it has the same system, sort of, and no filter on that type.

And if the filter is needed for some reason, they have to redesign it.
