After much research we decided AquaTru was the way to go. Far superior to any Britta type filter and much easier to use. Far less expensive then a household reverse osmosis and it allows you to use the filtered water when you choose versus every time you run the water. No complaints from the husband or kids either which is remarkable! Be prepared to wash both tanks weekly but it is very simple to do. Go for it. You won’t be disappointed!
I feel like it is a good unit and does a good job. I also feel like the first part to diminish in function will be the dispenser button. It feels like it sticks on occasion.
Individual filters can have persistent leaks which result in daily puddles on your counter. My neighborhood looses electricity briefly at least twice a year. Because of the interruption of power, my AquaTru does not track usage, and does not indicate when the filters need to be replaced. This really should be mentioned in the owner’s manual. Now I mark my calendar with the date of recommended replacement.
We purchased the unit about a month ago and have been using it a lot (we drink very little soda/juice) We can actually see the difference after the system purifies our tap water, the tap water looks yellowish and the purified water looks so clear!!! We taste the difference for sure! I’m just happy my family is now drinking good quality water (better than bottled water)
