We have had this for about 6 months now, and we love it. Between my husband and I, we go through approximately 2 gallons of water a day, which means we are grateful the readypour is 30 cups (most readypour dispensers do not hold this much fluid). This readypour helps eliminate plastic bottle usage in our home and the design allows for minimal space being used in our refrigerator. We highly recommend this product for those who go through water bottles like crazy, for large families, households who do not like to drink tap water or well-water, and anyone who in general water larger amounts of clean water readily available. We live on well water and many people who use well water believe its some of the best water for you, or is better than tap water. We tested our well water and it tested in the 550's consistently. It may be drinkable, however, we would rather drink water that tests at zero and hopefully do less harm to our bodies in the long-run.
