I am not having very good luck with the metal connector that they sell
in lowes. The water keeps leaking from the top where the tube goes into
the adapter. the picture is attached below of what i am using.

Here is what I did: all from Home Depot

Garden hose Y adapter - so clothes washer would still operate... :)

brass fitting - garden hose on one side and internally threaded on the other side

1/4" fitting for the ro tubing with the other ended threaded into the brass fitting

and Teflon tap

I tried that brass compression fitting you had above and it always leaked.
