MH943SBS Megahome Heavy Duty Distiller, Glass Collection - 316 Stainless Steel

Packaging was very secure, easy to unpack, great instructions for set up/care. Great quality equipment, wish the glass jar felt a bit more stronger but im just careful carrying/lifting it..Definitely use two hands when its full of pure distilled H2O water but otherwise its a beautiful distiller/glass container. I use it every other day, just for myself and my pets but dose warm up the room its in (been very nice in the winter so far, see how summer goes) but the pure H2O water it produces is so pretty...it basically sparkles its so clear. So the gunk in the tank afterwards is always different, im kinda shocked that the tap water in Chicago is so gross but im not realy suprised. Im sure there is worse places, im mostly left with murky water and build up residue but a few times its been like mushy boogers galore..so gross and I cant imagine what that is ive been drinking. Very easy to clean, ive just been using white vinegar (soaking for 5-30min depending) wipes right off and good to go. Ive been filling just a little past the line (don't go over or it will overfill the glass jar, but I do this so it turns off with some water left in it and dosen't completely dry up... regardless the white vinegar cleans it right up. *Dont open or clean till its cooled off. *Going to by a can of air too clean the fan and coils with from any dust that might build up on them. I love it so much, the water tastes AMAZING. I add sol'e (that I made) to my 2 gallon drinking water container for some good natural minerals, just a half teaspoon. Ive also been given it to my cats, the love it and just started giving my plants some as well (but without any sol'e) I have a spray bottle of distilled pure H2O on my bathroom sink that I use to wash my face now...my skin is glowing. A few days after drinking the distilled pure H2O water my joints felt so much better it incredible but I did notice i was having detoxing effects from drinking it but wasn't that bad and well worth the benefits. Also noticed my teeth seem cleaner/so smooth and shiny. Best thing you can do is invest in your health and this is a great 1st step in that direction. 100% recommend this for your home. Ps: i paid for this with my own money, for my own personal use in helping my health. *update* works GREAT, very happy with it. One recommendation is to not let it run till it turns off (u can of course) but I find that any funky smells/dry residue left behind from water in tank can be really bad and put the filter through hell, even ruining fresh distilled waterwith icky smell.. Also definitely wait till inside of tank airs out/cools down because when you open it the smell can be harsh. After that i put icky smelly filter in some distilled water for 30min, then again in more fresh distilled water for another 30min let dry in sunlight and its been good too reuse.

QUALITY: I purchased the Heavy Duty model because of its higher-quality stainless steel, which was the right choice. Overall, it's clear that this is a well-designed product made of high-quality materials. EASE OF USE: It is very easy to use, though I clean it after each use. It's very easy to clean. I drink about 1.5 gallons daily. TASTE: Amazing! I was expecting the water to taste funky, but I was pleasantly surprised when I realized how great it tasted. Although I have been adding trace minerals, this was not for the taste (see below). The water produced tastes great without adding anything to it, and it took no getting used to. TRACE MINERALS: I have been using the recommended ConcenTrace trace minerals. I've been adding the drops to each gallon, starting low and increasing over time. I found this necessary because my mouth kept getting dried out despite drinking a lot of distilled water. I learned that we need minerals for 'hydration.' Since I added the trace minerals, this issue has gone away. I've noticed zero change in taste so far when adding the trace minerals. This may be due to me increasing the dose gradually. Initially, I planned on using Himalayan salt to add minerals, but I changed my mind after finding a study on plastics found in sea salt and mountain salt, which was surprising. I have some ultra-fine Himalayan salt on hand as a backup. THE FAN: Anyone complaining about the fan's noise is looking for something to whine about. I'm very hypersensitive to even the slightest sounds, and this doesn't bother me at all. The noise is no louder than the sound from the fan in my computer when it is running its scheduled scan. It's barely noticeable. WARRANTY: I bought Amazon Asurion's extended 4-year warranty. I always purchase extended warranties for these types of items, and it always comes in handy. I always buy for the longest time available, in this case, 4 years. Best bang for the buck. If this unit has issues out of warranty, I can get a new unit for free as long as it's within 4 years; it's well worth the investment. I spoke with MegaHome about complaints regarding the motor going bad soon after the warranty. They assured me this is extremely rare and usually a result of something else, such as customers not cleaning the unit properly inside and out. You can find YouTube videos on how to care for the unit. REVERSE OSMOSIS VS DISTILLED: 1) I initially planned to buy an RO countertop system until I learned that the filtration/membrane of a reverse osmosis system could add micro/nano plastics. I immediately knew this was my best choice. 2) the cost of replacing filters with an RO system is expensive. 3) This distilled unit has fewer compartments to clean, and this is high-grade stainless steel vs the plastic of an RO system.
