I love having purified water, and I think that AquaTru does an excellent job. The chemical-ness of tap water is so obvious after using AquaTru. I can hardly stand to drink tap water anymore, and even bring quart or half gallon upcycled milk jars of water with me to work and on short driving trips. However, there are 2 things that I don’t like about the AquaTru device. First, I have found that algae can grow in an inaccessible area of the inlet, below the clean water tank. I cannot even get q-tips in there to clean it. I started adding a few dashes of Himalayan pink salt to each clean tank, and I think it has helped keep the algae at bay. The second is that the clean water inlet and the blue button outlet both leak at times. There will be water under the clean water tank that I have to dry before starting the next batch. And I keep a cloth under the outlet button, which catches most leaks. The leaking only happens after use, not while it is just sitting. Some minor annoyances
I wish it were GLASS not plastic:confused: I wish the filters came with instructions on when to replace. . . hope that I’m doing it right. . . labels on filter boxes NOT helpful. I use a sharpie to label the tops of filters in use:thinking: I take it to the cottage where it leaks all summer. . . hard to find a stable surface to place it on:flushed:
Like many people I wanted an excellent water filter, but I live in an apartment and can't make changes or additions to the apartment. So, this water filter is great because I didn't have to mess with the plumbing under the sink. It doesn't take up too much counter space and the water is so much better tasting.

We were one of the first to preorder this system. Have had it since day one and just love it. We use it daily and I even fill the bottles for my water cooler with it. Would highly recommend this unit for everyone.
Very easy to set up and use. My husband said the water felt/tasted "lighter". Love that there is zero chemical smell/taste from water. Price is prohibitive for a lot of folks I think. This was my Christmas present.
