Okay, so I've been using this NU Aqua RO system for about 3 months now, and wow—what a difference! The water tastes crisp, clean, and just... better. No weird aftertaste like with my old pitcher filter.

The installation? Not gonna lie, I was nervous, but the color-coded tubes saved me. Took me under an hour (with snack breaks). The bonus PPM meter is such a flex—I test my water like some kind of mad scientist now.

That alkaline filter though? Magic. My wife swears she can feel the difference in her morning tea. And coming from someone who used to buy $5 'artisanal' bottled water... that's saying something.

Pro tip: The booster pump is quieter than my fridge humming. Only complaint? Now I'm that annoying person who judges restaurant tap water.
