Water Filter Example

[Average Investor]

@Thought Art I am actually going to be in the market for a countertop unit. So far even what I am seeing still shows it as the best one versus the ones that would hook to the sink too. So I might be sticking with this unit as well. I am going to probably dive in a bit deeper into these.

@Average Investor I mean, for a countertop unit its basically a water filter that you would put under the sink but with a pump and vessel.

@Thought Art Yeah, it is quite similar. I was maybe hoping to find something with about 6 stages though. That's one of the main differences I see, plus the ease of use. If I had a sink that could have one adapted to it at the top plus a lot of stages that would be the most ideal. If that is not the case though this seems to be the best. Most that I am seeing are about 4 stages for this kind of unit. I am not a big fan of refilling this unit, but it is way better than a berkey.
