First impression - stunning.
Straight out of Tron(movie).
Design- Eye candy. The reason why I looked up the internet for its features was its looks. Black glossy finish looks feels good. It does attract fingerprints & minute dust particles but its worth a wipe everyday. The screen kind of blends with the black front cover, and yet manages to catch your eye.
Best part - when you press the button, it illuminates a blue LED right behind the silver panel which is fabulous. Even you glass gets a bluish effect. I drink 2 glasses of water only to see that light again.
Features - 6 stage including RO+ UV. Sounds cool. Plus an extra filter candle out of the unit to trap large particles.
Performance - I get raw water from overhead tank with nearly 800 TDS and pure it manages to drop it down to 150.Not bad, but I was kinda hoping below 100.
The LCD panel tells you most of the necessary things. Tank full indicator, GKK indicator, TDS IN & TDS OUT indicator. It manages to fill the tank in under an hour. (12 liters/hr).
Cons- Works entirely on electricity. So if I have a power cut, then no water to drink.
Final water has some calcium smell. Maybe cause its new. Has a minor humming noise. A bit creepy at night.
No tank level indicator. With that in place, this would have been the best among all. Tank full balloon should have been placed lower than its current height cause if I dispense two glasses of water, it starts filling up again. Results in more water loss and more power consumption.
