Pros
  • Certified to NSF/ANSI 58 by WQA
  • Filters cost under $90 a year
  • Needs no outlet under the sink
Cons
  • Lowest rated output here at 50 gallons a day, so the tank refills slowly
  • APEC does not publish a drain ratio; its own NSF test data shows about three gallons to drain per gallon made
  • The tank takes up much of the cabinet
