ro/di unit

Can anyone recommend a good ro/di unit for the cost concious hobbyist?

We have a 120 gal tank and are tired of buying water...water...and more water!

Thanks!

I'm also looking into the same thing. This is a hard thing to buy. Locally they run about $350 but on e-bay you can get one for as little as $100 with shipping??? I'm also very confused about this issue. Why are they so cheap on e-bay and what is the difference is it because your paying for a name like Kent ect....sorry about the ranting...lol

this is the one I was thinking of:

A few people are selling them on EBAY, good prices and good units. I just got the one from Canada.

My EBAY unit is a 6 stage, comes with a storage tank and was only around $150 bucks. The guy had about 30,000 good feedback so I imagine it's a good product. So much cheaper than anything else.

The company I got mine from was AQUA-SAFE. It is a very good unit, with all the bells and whistles. Comes with a 4 gallon storage tank, and 6 replacements for each filter. was about $200 for everything. I would get the replacement filters, you are going to need them anyway, may as well save on the shipping now. Very easy to hook up too.
