The product met my expectations and my needs. There are a few glitches when I run the system that turn off the process - I have worked these out, so currently (about 10 filtrations in) I am satisfied.
I am extremely happy with my purchase. I am a bit of a water snob…I’ve always liked the taste of purified/RO water and up until now I’ve been paying to have 5 gallon bottles delivered. I drink a lot of water and this got to be expensive and lugging/storing the bottles. I’m also moving to a second floor unit which would make that even more difficult. Anyways, I did a ton of research deciding which countertop RO machine I would buy and I felt Aquatru had the best reviews and seemed like the most reputable company with clean products. I made the purchase and decided on the carafe because I like being able to pour rather than having to push a dispense button. The machine came quickly and was thoughtfully packaged and easy to set up. I did the 4 rounds of filtering to get the filters all set. My first taste of the first pitcher after that, I was a little disappointed. It tasted good and clean but didn’t quite have that “bottled water” taste I was hoping for. After a filtered through 1-2 more pitchers I gave it another taste and it was DELICIOUS. It was exactly what I hoped it would taste like. So not sure if it just took a couple more rounds to get the filters going but I am SO pleased with the taste and the easy. I’m so happy to be done with lugging around the bottles. I would highly recommend. Now to see how long the filters last!

Love the crisp, fresh taste of the water! I'm a little disappointed that there is so much 'waste' water remaining that gets thrown away. I don't have a lot of counter space, and the unit is a little big to 'blend in' but I make it work.
