" ... 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 system takes so much space in the cabinet under the sink, there’s hardly any room for anything else. ... Need 6” of free space at the top? ... "
" ... And don't be afraid to undo the tubing to get thing organized. ... "
" ... In addition, I ordered the freezer ice-cube kit because I want that same quality with my ice cubes. ... "

" ... Also, we really didn't want to lose our undersink storage to the bulk of this contraption. ... "
" ... 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. ... "
" ... Installation was fairly easy (I didn't have space under my sink for the 3 gallon tank they supply, so I ended up placing it in an adjacent cabinet and drilling a hole through the cabinet wall). ... "
