Review on Clean and Crisp: APEC 5 Stage Reverse Drinking Water Filter by Brent Borseth

Revainrating 5 out of 5

How do I like it after 1 year?

I don't like it at all. I LOVE IT! This is by far one of the best purchases I've made for our home. Before we had this reverse osmosis system, our tap water was terrible. Shortly after we moved into this house and realized how bad the water tasted, we went down the bottled water path. We have been buying bottled water for 9 years. Easily consumes at least 8 bottles per month and eventually reached 13 bottles per month. That's anywhere from $60 to just under $100 a month for bottled water! Even after I bought this unit, I didn't stick my lazy ass under the sink to put it down for about 4 months. To be honest, I have problems with my knees. But yeah, mostly I was just lazy. Anyway, I finally figured out how to assemble it and it was actually pretty easy. Now we're easily saving $1,000 a year, our water tastes amazing, we can finally use our ice maker. on the fridge and use the ice it makes for more than pouring it into a cooler to keep drinks cold. If your water tastes terrible, do yourself a favor and get this device. It has really simple instructions that you can follow to install it. and even if you have to hire someone to do it, you'll come out on top and definitely love the taste of your water again. It's worth it! Our next step is to purchase one of APEC's complete home systems to ensure we have great water throughout the house. and even from the tap! Oh, and I forgot to mention that using these reverse osmosis systems will help your water heater and all your pipes, showerheads, etc last longer! Tired of leaving ugly limescale stains on your dishes after washing up? Buy a whole home system and you won't have this problem anymore. 5 stars are not enough for this wonderful product! By the way. I know I sound like a commercial or paid APEC advertiser, but I'm not. Just a very happy guy now that I have this product in my house.
