My wife is pushing for one of these very expensive home water treatment/filtration systems, but it all feels like a scam to me. No one I know has one, so turning to random strangers on the internet for opinions.

Edit: We’re on city water in a decent area. No well water. It’s more about removing the chlorine and microplastics than anything.

    Just as there is no evidence that microplastics actually cause any disease. Remember when we were kids and loved to chew on lead blinds?

      rofl no. No, an RO system will not add more plastic to your water than the MILES of pipeline your city water went through to reach your house, or even the MANY feet of plastic pipe that sit in modern walls… Your ignorance is pathetic, and not in any way that you should be proud of.
