i dont think you're going to find something that cheap AND good..

around here it's $2 to fill a 5 gallon jug... maybe that would work for you?

Yeah I was doin more research and it’s cheaper to pay for water, bc u still have to keep buying filters and it takes forever to make. It’s an investment and time consuming. I was getting 2 gallons for $1. I probably have deals like that somewhere out here as well. Appreciate it.

I've always used the 5 stage kits on ebay never had a problem. Takes my tap from 350ppm to 20ppm.

How much overall would u say u spent? Do u have it installed to sink or do u have it ghetto rigged up lol? There’s just a lot that goes into it. I’d rather just buy the water honestly.

Hmm might have to look into that a lil more. But I did read that the cheaper ones aren’t built to last and if u don’t change filters regularly, chlorine can leak through the filter and damage the container and even if u buy a new filter u still will have chlorine in water.
