The best water we have tested and tasted

This machine is small and powerful. The water tastes amazing. The only part I dont like is when the mineral deposits make a ring around the waste water in the back tank if I leave it there too long. I have 2 pitchers and I switch them out. Sometimes when i wait too long to do so the mineral ring is very hard to remove from the back waste water tank. I use vinegar and get it off with no problem however. I guess that just goes to show you all the filth in our water!!
I was very excited to get this water filter, it was highly recommended with the multi filters. It is easy enough to use, but I thought it would hold more water then it does. The water that is splashed back in the base has to be emptied - before adding more and can't be used as drinking water. It was explained to me when I call that this is the water that is released back from the filter. I can use this to water my house plants, but not plants I will eat. I think there is a lot of water that I can't drink this way. I haven't had to replace the filters yet, so I can't comment on that. The machine is easy to use, I like the pouring spout, it is easy enough to clean- once a week, and doesn't take up much space on the kitchen counter.
We love the ease of use, how quick it is, how wonderful the water tastes, the price was great with our introductory discount! We even stopped buying distilled water for our cpap machines and it works great with no mineral build up!
As far as I can tell (not testing my water or being an expert in toxins, etc) this system is really good for supplying healthy, filtered water. I don't like the taste as much as unfiltered or Brita-filtered water, and the mineral drops make it even stranger- maybe it just takes more time to get used to the difference. I wasn't expecting the amount of maintenance it takes, rinsing and filling the tank at least once a day for one person's use, plus weekly washing. It would be easier if the handle wasn't inside the tank, and the lid detached- I find it awkward to work with as it is. I don't think everyone could handle the full tanks of water, especially having to lift them up and onto the back of the unit- I'm able to go around my counter and get at it from behind. From what I've seen offered, this is still a more economical choice for a water filtration system.
The Aquatrue is so easy to use and the water is so crystal clear! The taste is so pure. The only negative is that we are constantly making water since we love it so much!
My family loves to fill up their water bottles when visiting, they can taste the difference when drinking the pure water. I feel better knowing that our water is cleaner and safer for them to drink. I love how easy it is to refill.
The water tastes very clean. I wish there was a complete gallon of water to drink, that's the only con. I can actually get more water in on a daily basis. I want to drink water. I wish I had ordered an extra tank to put in the refrigerator.
