Review on πŸ’§ Blue Brita Total360 BRDROS Reverse Osmosis Water Filtration System for Undersink Use by Raquel Ramirez

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Medium sized reverse osmosis system with easy to replace filters

This is a three stage reverse osmosis system. There are also systems with 4x, 5x or even 6x. I'm not going to go into all the differences between these different systems, but this Brita system is very basic when it comes to reverse osmosis systems. The main advantage of this system over many others is the ease of changing the filter. But more and more companies are also producing reverse osmosis systems with easily replaceable filters, such as the Waterdrop. Therefore, compare common systems with each other before you decide which one is best for you. It is true that reverse osmosis filters remove most minerals from water. But most people still get enough minerals from other beverages they consume, vitamins, and other foods. Therefore, although some people talk about the health risks of water that has been filtered by reverse osmosis, I don't believe it. A reverse osmosis filter is still the best way to remove most of the contaminants that can cause health problems from your water. You can buy systems with an optional filter that adds minerals at the end of the filtration process if you want, but as I mentioned earlier, most people already get a lot of minerals from their regular diet. 2 years life. That is not right. This is a reverse osmosis membrane with a lifespan of 2 years. This is one of 3 included filters. The remaining 2 filters should be changed every 6 months. Of course, these recommendations are based on the average amount of daily use. If you buy this system, you should also buy a TDS meter (usually less than $20) to check the TDS level after installing the system and then about every month. This way you can tell when system performance is slowing down and it's time to change filters. If you already have a soap dispenser in the sink that you can remove, this system is very easy to install. Otherwise you will have to drill a hole in the sink for the faucet. If you have a granite countertop, be careful when doing this as you could break the granite. If you live in an apartment, consider a countertop reverse osmosis system. There are several such systems. You don't need to connect anything to them all the time. These systems are fully portable, if a bit pricey (typically $400-$500).

Pros
  • Kitchen and bathroom lighting
Cons
