Great water distillers
I have had my distiller for over a year and use it regularly, it has never failed me and I do enjoy the water. It's small and convienent and supplies all my needs for clean water.

XLNT Unit - Had 19 months - Owners Try This Longer Life Trick
This unit is reliable and well made. For the last 18 months it runs nearly 24/7 as I use distilled water for everything. I was concerned about the fan being the weak link - but it has been as reliable as can be so far.
As far as the second weak link - the internal circuit breaker - below is how to get around setting it off every gallon.
It is designed so that it only turns off when it runs out of water and gets hot. I figured the internal breaker may eventually burn out from this. So I looked for a "countdown" timer. You can find these around Christmas - they are designed to turn off your holiday lights after X number of hours.
I found one and set it for 5 hours - it turns the unit off when about 1/2 inch of water is left inside. Much easier to clean when the residue isn't burned onto the bottom and the internal circuit breaker never needs to trip.
This distiller is a great investment - if it broke I would immediately buy another.
I put it in a part of your house that needs some heat - it is essentially a 500 watt heater as the fan dissipates the heat to turn the steam into water. Heats up a cold room quite nicely.

Excellant Machine . . .
I set the Distiller up in my bedroom. It is also a white noise generator & helps warm my room when I take nap ! (very relaxing). . .The water tastes great ! I fill it with 1 gallon of tap water but pull the plug when it produces 3/4 gallon of disstilled water. I don't want to risk problems of overheating etc. Try one, you'll like it too. . . . freon . . .
