Possibly you are talking about Kenmore water  distillers instead of filtration 
systems? I posted the inquiry about them and someone answered that they had 
used one to make distilled water for making CS for a number of years and were 
completely satisfied with it. 

At $1 a gallon at the store, one would have to make over 100 gallons of DW to 
pay for the machine, less the cost of the electricity. That's assuming that you 
could get one for $100, and that the store DW was as good quality.

So, I guess it depends on how much DW you go through, and how correct your 
assumptions are.

  I'm sorry, I am coming in the middle/end of this thread, but since you are 
talking about water filtration systems, which I know bupkiss about, I'm 
soliciting opinions on the best/very good at reasonable prices.  I was looking 
at the Kenmore (someone brought this product up in another email) for about 
$129 new at Sears, but on Ebay probably can get it for under $100.  Can anyone 
suggest three good options?  One for under $100, one approximately $150, and 
one for up to $200.  Pros and cons, ease of use, frequency of supplies and 
costs involved, etc.

  Thank so much!
