Great Purchase
Solid 4+ stars, assuming it lasts. Time will tell, but it seems well-built.
I bought this for our humidifiers and espresso machine, and now I use it for drinking water too (after seeing what was left in the pot).
We don't have whole-house water filtering, and both tap water and filtered Samsung refrigerator water leave a lot of cloudy white residue in the pot after each run. I expected city tap to leave residue, but I was surprised and disappointed in how cloudy the leftover "filtered" water from the fridge was.
We'll see how long these units last, but so far so good. I'm running my 2 units every day, and each one distills 1 gallon in 3.5 hours. I clean the pot with vinegar from a spray bottle to remove the deposits.
This would be a 5-star product if the plugs went into a base that you lifted the pot from. To clean it (and possibly to refill it, depending on your setup), you need to unplug both the heater plug and the fan plug from the pot, which I think is inconvenient if you're doing it a lot.
Other improvements to make this a 5-star product:
- Include a simple 18x9 inch mat or tray to allow the pot and the pitcher/container to be moved together. Not a big deal, but Vevor could have included a thin, inexpensive plastic/Teflon/polypropylene mat (like you put on wire shelving) to allow the unit and the pitcher to be easily moved together. I cut my own mat, and I'm keeping it because I like it a lot. Should have been included in my opinion.
- Include a 90 degree C14-to-C13 plug adapter for the heater plug. The cooling fan plug for the top of the unit already has a 90 degree plug, but the heater plug does not. If you're unplugging your unit a lot, you probably will want to get one of these.
- This unit has its own power switch, but I also added a 1875 watt outlet switch so I can easily turn off the power to the cord. Maybe that's a little too much "goggles and rubber boots to change a light bulb" but I figured I don't want a live wire falling onto the counter when I unplug the unit to dump the leftover electrolyte-filled water, so I just flick the switch on the outlet before I unplug the unit's two cords to empty/clean/refill.
Overall, this unit is great deal. Definitely beats lugging around water from the store at 8+ pounds per gallon, and when you see what is in your water, you may be very glad to have this. I am.
My coffee tastes better, and I'm hoping the espresso machine boiler will last longer too. I also notice our sodastream seltzer water tastes better too.
Assuming this lasts, this is a very strong 4+ star product, easily made a 5-star product with a few inexpensive additions (18x9 inch mat, 90 degree plug, and 1875W (15 amp) outlet switch), which you can easily do on your own for under $20. Thank you, Vevor!

It lasted a year

It’s a shame, it’s a great water distiller, but just over 12 months of use and I have cracks in the stainless steel where it heats up. This is not a thick stainless steel and has corroded where the hairline crack is and it rippled in other spots too.
Buying another one cause clean drinking water is more important and I accept it comes at a cost of replacement every year or so.

The water gets a strong and unpleasant 'boiled' water taste. It is pure enough for applications where that kind of water is needed but the taste makes it a water I do not wish to drink, even when refrigerated.

Overall disappointing: product not as displayed, the handles and straps move around the glass cause the screws can not tighten up enough, plastic lid.. far inferior product the previous.. will not recommend

The distilled water tasted metsllic
I liked that the distiller was stainless steel inside and out, although I would have preferred that the lid on the glass carafe was stainless instead of plastic. It’s a bit hard to remove the distiller top to fill the machine. I had to put it in a closed room because it is quite noisy to operate. But I could have lived with all that for the price, if not for the biggest issue and why I am returning it is that the water came out tasting metallic, so I was afraid it was defective. Distilled water should have no taste or taste good.

I would like to return the distiller. I know it has been a while since I purchased it as a gift, but the person who received the product doesn't wish to keep it.
Can I return it?
