    What is the objective you are trying to achieve from this device that you cannot achieve with a tap plus a £9.99 kettle?

    Tap water is perfectly healthy to drink, potentially more so than a domestic RO would deliver.

    If you want a steam-free room, simpler devices such as this one would potentially suffice:

    What chemicals in tap water concern you? The minerals are generally naturally occurring and more beneficial to health than not.

    Taste is subjective. Have you tasted RO water?

    This product features on the same site as the OP's Reverse Osmosis gizmo.

    Osmio Double Helix Water £48.00

    • Buy 2 for £43.99 each and save 8%
    • Buy 4 for £38.80 each and save 19%
    • Buy 10 for £33.60 each and save 30%

    World renowned quantum, mathematical and theoretical physicist, Dr. Shui Yin Lo discovered Double Helix Water in the 90s and not only discovered water as a stable cluster but also proved the existence of meridians. This is a major step towards the integration of Western medicine's great capacity to cure quickly and Eastern medicine's focus on prevention and health maintenance. One bottle contains 15 millilitres of Osmio Double Helix Water.

    £48. For 15 ml. That's £24 per helix. At least the clusters are stable.

    Quality bolx.

    I happen to be running a special offer on snake-oil. It is very rare and valuable so I am not promoting the offer widely but only to select individuals that I know will value and appreciate the special qualities and scientific basis of the magic that can be worked. I can see from your reference to such world renowned individuals that you would be suitably discerning to consider me opening such an offer in your favour 😉

    'One born every minute' is a phrase that springs to mind!!

    How to find a dentist.
    1. Get recommendations from friends/family/neighbours/etc.
    2. Once you have a short-list, VISIT the practices - dont just phone. Go on the pretext of getting a Practice Leaflet.
    3. Assess the helpfulness of the staff and the level of the facilities.
    4. Only book initial appointment when you find a place you are happy with.

    I would be concerned that the link you provided only had reviews that are 2 years old and older.

    Have you looked for other reviews on the same item?

    Personally, I've had my kitchen for 30+ years and the cabinets are fine (if a little tired), certainly not 'ruined'.

    The tap water in our area tastes ok. But, then again, I'm not the sort of person who buys expensive bottles of water.
