Pour a glass of fresh, clean, filtered water without opening the refrigerator or a bottle with this countertop water-filtration system. Attractively housed in brushed stainless steel, the 2-gallon unit dispenses 500 mL of hot water (194 degrees F), 800 mL of cold water (44 degrees F), or room-temperature water. Its upper water tank holds approximately 1/2 gallon of unfiltered water, while the lower water tank holds about a gallon of filtered water. Better than bottled water, the countertop filtration system reduces contaminants that can alter taste and purity. It reduces chlorine (97.5 percent), mercury (92.8 percent), benzene (84.1 percent), cadmium (96.6 percent), copper (85.0 percent), tetrachloroethylene (92.5 percent), and toluene (89.8 percent). The included filter lasts for about 80 gallons or three to four months of average household use. Other details include a 12-week filter timer, a flip-top lid for convenient filling, a removable water tank, blue and red LED “water-ready” indicator lights, two separate spigots, and simple push-button controls with a child safety lock on the hot-water option. Weighing about 14 pounds, the water-filtration system measures 10 by 10 by 14-1/2 inches and carries a three-year limited warranty.
