Great taste. Lots of waste. Awkward design. Large footprint.

The Aqua Tru does the job. I didn't realize how much water is left over after filtering, that cannot be re-used (except on plants). The pitcher portion has not "spout" and drips when pouring. The unit takes up a really large footprint on the counter. And if it sits under the cabinets, it is a pain to pull out, lift the tank, fill and put it back. I've stopped using it and plan to sell mine.
I was very excited to use this system but there is a very strange smell in the water tank that I can’t seem to get of. I noticed it immediately when unpacking the machineZ I’ve washed it multiple times with soap and water and even ran I little bit of vinegar through it but the smell is still there! It makes the water taste strange as well.

We converted from and under sink mounted RO system to AquaTru. The system is easy to use and is definitely effective in removing contaminates from the water. A simple before and after filtration taste test clearly shows that. It would be awesome if the tap water tank were larger to reduce refills but that does t change the quality of the unit whatsoever. It is helpful to see how many gallons have been filtered and the TDS meter is a great feature for the companion app on the phone . I would suggest however that the TDS meter be updated to be more specific and use ppm units of measure versus low, medium, high, very high. I still need to use a tds meter to verify effectiveness and reliability due to this. However , overall this is a top notch RO system.
