It was too pricey for me. I wish the water tank was bigger to hold more water. I need to refill too often. I think I understand the wasted water also... I love having cleaner water.
It's easy to set up and easy to use. I only drink water from my Aqua True, even when I went on vacation I filled up several glass jars with water from my Aqua True to bring with me.
It seems to always have one residual drip- even if I wait. I guess I feel safer. I probably should have bought the trace minerals, let me know if they go on sale.
After having a few reverse osmosis filters installed under the sink, and every time we moved we had a problem uninstalling and installing at the new place, this water filter was a life safer. It's great. It's free of PBA & other replacement chemicals, like bisphenol-S (or BPS)- which may be just as bad. I only wish it refilled itself.
I was concerned about the regular cleaning process, but it's not that big a deal. Just do it faithfully. When minerals begin to build up on the sides of the tap water tank, I fill it a little above the backwash water line (where most of the minerals are) and let it sit overnight. In the morning I pour the used vinegar into some jugs and keep reusing it for subsequent cleaning (so long as it still gets rid of the minerals). For the usual weekly cleaning I use hot soapy water.
