Yep, aerator got me as well. Clogs up pretty quick and then you get nothing!! I ended up taking mine off and putting a bucket under faucet to flush the lines. Otherwise it clogs right back up again real quick. I recommend the bucket as the water spits everywhere if you just try to run into faucet. At least mine did. Once it was all flushed out, I screwed aerator back in and all is well.
