Looking to get an RO unit. What kind would you recommend? Right now i'm leaning towards the iSpring 75GPD 5 stage.
Thanks

I would get a BRS 75gpd 5 stage plus. I got the base 4 stage and have since upgraded to 6 stages with a dual DI canister set. I also added the dual inline TDS meter so if I did it over again I would have bought the 5 stage from the beginning.

I use the Bulk Reef Supply 4 stage 75 GPD RO/DI with the dual inline TDS meter and pressure gauge. With the dual TDS meter and pressure gauge, I can tell when exactly what filter needs to be changed...so I don't use redundant filters.

Why 75GPD? It's one of the most efficient membranes out there, and the replacement filters are inexpensive.
