Works great. My wife needs pure water due to her allergies and edema. This was a great solution for us. The survey didn't allow me to select not applicable for customer service. I never had any interaction with customer service.
The water quality is excellent, it's simple to use and I can handle it all myself. In the past, my husband & I always had a regular RO system, but they wasted a lot of water and I would not have been able to manage the filter maintenance. Being a widow now, I was so glad to hear about the AquaTru on the EWG website. I didn't want to be hauling bottled water all the time, or need to bother a friend for R.O. maintenance. I will say that I'm glad that I already had a good water softener, because the water where I live now is 18 grains hard, so past the limit for the AquaTru recommendation, and people need to be aware of that.
It was hard to want to spend that kind of money but once I received it it was so worth it. Knowing that I’m giving my family healthy clean water is worth every penny. And it taste great! Super easy to use too!
The machine works well most of the time but every once in while it doesn't seem to shut off properly and we find water on the counter, sometimes a considerable amount. At one time we thought it was a defective filtered water tank but now we're not really sure where the water comes from. So we dry the counter and continue to filter the water. We never do anything differently but wonder what we should or shouldn't be doing to prevent this. With the addition of minerals, the water taste is good.

I was very excited about this product, and spent the high price to hopefully get the best water for myself and my family. However, we began having problems with it within the first few months. We resolved the first problems, but soon after, we had more problems. We have well water, and were told AFTER the purchase that it is not recommended with well water - although they claim this information was on the website (I did not see it?). So, the unit is worthless in our situation, and the company was not willing to work with us and give us an even partial refund, even after I purchased new filters to try to fix the problem. The filters are expensive too. Also, I didn't like that the clean water tank was so small, we were constantly having to "make" clean water. We have switched to a delivery company, and are much happier with this new situation. We're out a lot of money. Water quality was great, but not sure if it's worth the hassle and price, even if you DON'T have well water.
