Bought for my apartment after using an under sink RO system. Easy to maintain and tastes very similar to bigger systems I used to have. Highly recommend
Did plenty of research before buying, and the AquaTru Classic was the right choice. Easy to use, great-tasting water, and no more plastic bottles. Couldn't be happier!
We are so happy with our new AquaRtu filter!! The water tastes great, and it is very convenient to have fresh RO water on demand! Thank you for this wonderful counter-top filter!
We've had the countertop filter for roughly 3 years now. We've had 0 issues with it running properly and it's super easy to use. I'll be honest, I don't check to see if all of the contaminants are truly removed, but I will assume that since we're diligent with replacing the filters that the water is good to go.
There are a few things that I would love to see from Aquatru in future models. First, I'm not sure the logic with using plastic throughout the unit. With a lot of folks trying to avoid plastics and stick with glass or stainless steel, the plastic has been a little bit of a turnoff. If there's a way for the main compartmenta to be glass that would certainly be ideal.
Probably the biggest issue that we've had to deal with is cleaning both the main reservoir and the section that houses the old water. Overtime we've seen that green algae grows between the handle, in between every groove, and most importantly where the clean water comes in and out of the main unit. Sure we're getting rid of all metals and chemicals, but not loving the fact that I'm also drinking green algae.
Other than that, again, the water is definitely a huge step up from bottled/tap water. I would recommend, with the caveat of the issues raised above.
