Great if it didn’t leak!

I really like the clean water machine. The water it filters tastes great and I love that I can have readily filtered water on demand. HOWEVER within a couple weeks of purchasing, it started to leak from the base of the reservoir. I had read about this on a few reviews so I always use a pitcher to fill it to avoid having to remove it from the base. Unfortunately despite taking this precaution, it still leaks and is getting worse. Since it’s a new machine I don’t think it’s a problem with the o ring. I’ve checked it and it’s on correctly. I bought a long oval planter saucer and placed the machine in it to contain the water but have to empty it frequently. I emailed Customer Service and am hoping they can help me with this issue.
Pros: Easy to clean, No odor, Clean taste, Long lasting filter, Good Water Flow, Easy to install
Unfortunately, both orders of the counter system leaked like crazy. Customer service was very kind and switched out the first unit quickly. However, the 2nd unit leaked as well. At that point I was done so I asked for a refund.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Good taste + customer service, but SO LOUD + LEAKY

Had the faucet system for a while and that worked well however when I moved and needed a counter top system it was a disaster. I replaced the model 3 times meaning I owned four models and each one leaked to the point where I was wiping up a flood multiple times per day. And it was extremely loud, that in itself is enough reason to be wary. Customer Service was helpful but no amount of calling fixed a faulty product. It's too bad because the filtration itself is the best out there, they just need to build a better pitcher and countertop option!
Pros: Easy to clean, Clean taste, Long lasting filter
I'm really happy with the taste of my water with this system. The water seems much more pure. My health coach recommended I buy an Aquasana pitcher as part of my new regimen, and I believe it's helping me become more healthy.
Problems noted include: it is difficult to remove the pitcher from the base, especially when it is full of water. Numerous people expressed frustration with how difficult it is to pull the pitcher out of its housing. And it is basically impossible to do with just one hand or, if the pitcher is full, without spilling water.
Furthermore, my pitcher had some discoloration on the white plastic housing. It looked like it had been exposed to light and, as a result, had yellowed in some places.
For all products for which the filter needs frequent replacement, it would be better to have an indicator letting customers know when such a replacement is required.
After several years as an Aquasana countertop filter user, I decided to get one for my in-laws, who have been using "charcoal filters" for their water. THEY LOVE IT! They feel the water is cleaner, and are thrilled to have a reverse-osmosis filter that gives them really, really clean water.
Pros: No odor, Clean taste, Long lasting filter, Easy to install
Very happy with the his filter. I bought this because my husband got a hernia and couldn’t lift jugs anymore and I was tired of buying gallon bottles and lugging them from the car and then dealing with all the empty bottles each week. I was impressed with the ratings and the specs.
The flavor and smell of the water is great which pleasantly surprised me because I am so picky with my water and have hated all other water filters I’ve tried in the past due to flavor and scent of the water. Even my cat is drinking more water now that we have this filter.
This pitcher size is good for 1-2 people but I would suggest the bigger dispenser for a larger family.
Pros: Easy to clean, Clean taste, Good Water Flow, Durable, Easy to install
