" ... WATER IS PERFECT ... "
" ... The water taste wonderful. ... "
" ... I already had a high quality RO water faucet spout so I kept that one and just hooked up into it, not using the cheaper one that came with the system. ... I bought a TDS meter and after the install the RO water measured 15 TDS. ... The RO water tastes great with the addition of the minerals added back in. ... "
" ... I don't have to purchase bottled water so we have saved a lot of money!! ... "

" ... While the unit looks like a web of tubing, the tubes that the owner cares about during installation are easy to access and connect. ... I have a couple of photos attached here that show my installation. ... "
" ... Installation probably took 1-2 hours, plus a trip to the hardware store and some extra time as I wanted to connect to the old line coming from my icemaker and it was a non-standard connection. ... "

" ... I purchased the Home Master Water System in February of 2016, I used to buy the water systems sold at Costco whenever I moved into a new home but decided this time around to do some comparison shopping. ... The Home Master System constantly came up as one of the best water purification systems out there so I decided to give it a try. ... I also like that the water filters last at least one year, longer for me since I go out of town a lot so the filter gets some down time. ... "

" ... Great tasting clean water! ... but I feel that it's most likely totally clean! ... "
" ... It makes odorless, clean-tasting water for drinking, cooking, and ice cubes. ... "
" ... The water itself is truly perfect--and I know it's clean. ... "
" ... System does make some noises, I believe that system is cleaning itself. ... "
" ... Clean water is really important to us and we’re very happy with this system. ... "

" ... I had to run to Home depot and grab a few couplings for my Fridge hook up and some extra Tubing because what they gave me was not long enough but I hope the home depot tube will hold up and not have any issues. ... "
" ... Like some reviewers I was worried about space with this design. ... "
" ... Also, we really didn't want to lose our undersink storage to the bulk of this contraption. ... "
" ... The tank arrived dented from the delivery, but it's working well and I didn't care enough (it is after all under the sink . ) ... "
" ... The unit does not take up as much space under the sink as we were anticipating and the noise level is minimal. ... "
" ... In the past, we always used the charcoal filter built into the refrigerator, but when we redesigned our kitchen, we chose a model without filtered water. ... After purchasing the Artesian system, with a faucet on the sink, I will never go back to the refrigerator filters. ... "
" ... Might need smaller ones depending on how cramped your installation space is . ... "
" ... It also takes up less room under my sink and it looks like it will be much easier to change out filters. ... "
