I did a bit of research before I ordered this system - and I have tried to answer questions that I had here. Hope this helps!
I have had my water delivered to me for the last 3 years. I used to drink a lot of diet soda, crystal light etc - and my new personal trainer told me he wants me to start drinking a gallon of water per day. A gallon! What!?
Above and beyond the fact I feel like a walking water bed, I realized I would have to up my water delivery to at least 5-6 x 5 gallons a month - which is probably the norm for a family. But for a single person - that is a lot of darn water - and about $50 a month too! (the tap water in Las Vegas is NASTY!)
So I did a bit of research and happened upon this Zen water system. $89 - but that would pay for itself if it worked and tasted good etc, right?
So I ordered it.
It came within 2-3 days.
It is easy to set up but you do have to boil the mineral stones for 15 mins and run water through the filters etc for 15 mins.
It wasn't until I had finished boiling my rocks (tee hee) that I realized I had mistakenly ordered the DISPENSER model and not the COUNTER TOP one that I had thought I had ordered. I decided to run to the store and buy a ceramic crock dispenser and stand and make do with the dispenser model. 1. I have already done all the boiling. 2. I really have no room on my counter for it anyway so I would have had to go buy a table/stand eventually anyway. The crock and stand cost about $75.00. So even with the additional expense, in 3 months this system will definitely pay for itself - providing the water tastes good.
So on day one, I filled the thing up and yes, it is very slow - but isn't that to be expected? The water is making its way through a rock and sediment filtration system. Eventually it will erode a path through it and will start to trickle quicker.
My first glass tasted a bit "stoney" shall we say - I don't know how else to describe it, lol. You could taste the mineral stones. So I dumped it out and started again - and the taste is not as strong and definitely getting better the more I drink and the longer water is running through it etc. Right now the water has a slight taste - not a bad one though - just different. I foresee that taste diminishing with time. The water is definitely soft and sort of silky. I am a fussy water drinker and this is definitely drinkable (I am on day 2 at time of writing)
A few hours after I set the whole thing up and the crock was filled to the brim, it began to leak. In other words, the floating device at the bottom (the part that is in the crock) was not functioning properly. Ever 'jiggled' a toilet handle because the floating device inside was playing up? I did the same thing. I jiggled the thingy (floating thing) and put the system back on the crock - and have had no leaks and the compartment above the crock is half full now.
When I saw I had mistakenly ordered the dispenser model. I scoured the reviews to see what type of dispenser/cooler this would work with. There was not a lot if info. One person said it worked with their ceramic crock - so that is what I got. When I ran to the store I looked at all types of dispensers - and it would work with an electric one if you are able to remove the insert that the bottle slots onto. If you cannot take that part out of your dispenser - it will not fit. I have posted (or plan to post) a photo of my ceramic crock/Zen system - and just be aware that it fits comfortably onto the crock BUT it is not super secure - especially when the system is not full of water. Once it is full and has a bit of weight added to it, it feels more stable. I suppose you could find a rubber ring or something to place around the mouth of the crock to provide more purchase for your system. I only point this out if you have kids or large dogs. Mine is in a corner and is quite stable.
Anyway, it is still early days yet and if I change my mind about the system as I live with it longer, I will update this post. Giving it 4 stars for now - may up it to 5 with time.
UPDATE: Had this system for about 2 weeks now - and I LOVE it! I have upped my rating to 5. The water tastes dee-lish and this is going to save me heaps of money if it lasts the test of time. I have had no problem sticking to the gallon of water a day requirement as laid out by my gym.
