Something causes me severe skin irritation and burning sensations. I think the distilled water may be high in nickel or some other metal... I drank the distilled water consistently and had symptoms... Quit the water for a couple of months, symptoms abated... Started the water again, symptoms returned.. Pretty sure that's what it is. Not going to go through the expense of having the water tested, I'll just buy a different distiller...Bummed to have problems with this. Did not go through the hassle of asking for a refund.

I was honestly shocked (and disgusted) when I saw how much was in my water. I have city water (therefore, I thought it was clean already), so I originally bought this distiller just to get rid of the gross chlorine taste, but now I’m extra happy I have it!I picked this one because, as I’m sure you’ve noticed, most water distillers don’t have great reviews. This one didn’t have awful reviews, matched the price point I was looking for, and looked nice as well. The water tastes amazing, and it doesn’t take too long. I fill it up with hot water, and it reduces distillation time by over half an hour. I also use a Scotch pad on the inside of the distiller every time I refill it, to keep minerals from building up so quickly. I have no complaints, so I recommend it!7/22/20 Update #2: Still perfect after twice daily use! I do recommend scouring off mineral buildup from the rubber seal, which I noticed was building up after all this time. Couldn’t be happier with this distiller!9/28/20 Update 3: I downgraded my review to four stars because the power button popped off the distiller and could not be put back on. I figured it looked bad, but worked fine. Then, a few days later, the distiller stopped turning off, so I had to set a timer and unplug it after 4 hours. My husband tried to carefully take it apart to see what the issue was, but you really can’t get inside. We put it back together, it worked a few more days, and then the power button stopping working entirely. I wish we had gotten at least a full year of use.

If you put the lid on the glass pitcher slightly crooked the metal fitting can cause the pitcher to explode in shards of glass. This literally happened the very first time I affixed the lid to the glass. The exploding glass cut my fingers. I was also using the most modest amount of pressure. This glass is very brittle.

If you own an Aerogarden or several and live in an area with hard tapwater you quickly discover the importance of having at hand an ongoing supply of distilled water. Under present circumstances as well as from an economic standpoint, a home distiller is a good investment. There are many available and what I found is that, compared to this CO-Z unit, you can spend twice as much for one made of plastic which takes half as long again to distill an equivalent four liters. You also can spend well over twice as much and get one made of stainless steel and glass which does the same thing in the same amount of time. At this very reasonable price and given it's features and build quality, my opinion is this CO-Z model is the best overall value.You'll see, above, a one-star review or two warning that the glass carafe is brittle and prone to breakage because the lid is too hard to remove. You can take that at face value or, firstly, consider that (spoiler alert): Glass is brittle and prone to breakage. Secondly, read the manual and note the warning against attempting to remove the NON-REMOVABLE lid.Other reviewers complain about having to scrub mineral deposits from the reservoir upon completion of distillation. Consider that the purpose of distillation is, in this application, to remove minerals from the water and they have to go somewhere. The unit has an auto shut-off which evidently works by sensing excess heat, such as would be expected when the reservoir has boiled dry. You can easily minimize after-use maintenance by not relying on this temperature sensor and instead using a heavy duty appliance timer  with a countdown function. I set mine to three hours and forty minutes and have no problems with baked-on deposits. In addition, scrubbing or the use of specialized cleaners is, in most cases, unnecessary. A quarter cup of white vinegar allowed to sit for a brief period, followed by light wiping and rinsing of the interior of the unit will easily remove the mineral residue. A 3M Dobie cleaning pad  (the one with a thin plastic mesh for light scrubbing on one side and sponge on the other) is ideal for this.Incidentally, the unit is much larger than it appears in the photos, about the size of a medium-sized coffee urn. Not having extra counter space in my small kitchen, I keep it and the jugs of distilled water on this  very sturdy and inexpensive cart  (see photo).One final tip: I strongly recommend placing a small plastic funnel in the spout of the carafe during the distilling process, and not relying on the strange metal cap provided (see photo). This will ensure the distilled water reliably dripping into the carafe during operation.Overall, I am entirely pleased with the value, quality and performance of the CO-Z Water Distiller.ONE YEAR UPDATE: This distiller continues to give excellent results. I have five small hydroponic units and distill from six to nine gallons of water per week, usually over a two to three day period. Cleaning is done after all distillation is completed, using only white vinegar and the soft scrubber pad mentioned in the review, above.I noticed one or two reviewers reported rust and corrosion. I suspect that is the direct result of improper maintenance and storage...leaving the distiller assembled and wet between uses when it is not being operated. After cleaning I set the components on wooden trivets (see photo), the distiller head upright and the tank inverted, to air dry thoroughly. The unit looks as good as new with no signs of corrosion. [I assembled these trivets from scrap wood but any similar object of sufficient diameter with an open design will serve the purpose.]One other small tip: Using a funnel with a wide spout  makes transferring water into storage jugs much faster and easier. heavy duty appliance timer3M Dobie cleaning padvery sturdy and inexpensive cartfunnel with a wide spout

This item was ordered as an upgrade to the less expensive unit that comes with a plastic collection container. As per several reviews, the odor to the distilled water was coming from the plastic and we now find the glass container significantly reduces that odor. We opted to spend more on this unit rather than just use any glass 68 oz container because it was designed to fit under the drip spout. I only gave 4 stars because, this unit came with a power button that was dislodged from the base unit. Originally I contacted Amazon customer service to document the problem but opted to deal directly with Banyon Imports to see how they would handle the matter. After several messages were exchanged with the seller, and photos were sent to visually explain and verify the problem, Banyon agreed that the housing for the power button could not be snapped back into place over the sensor stem and that a replacement distiller was needed. Everything was settled within 2 weeks and I give Banyon Imports 5 stars for being a dependable vendor.
