ROVSUN [Upgraded Version] 1.1 Gallon/4L Water Distiller, Countertop Distilled Water Machine, Flame Retardant Material, BPA Free Container, Stainless Steel Interior, 750W Distilled Water Maker Purifier

I've been using the 1.1 gallon distiller since July 2023, it has been working without any problems and continues to work. My only complaint is the metal top for when making distilled water, it fits very loosely and if not very careful about how it sits the water will run down the inside of it and out on top of the water jug flooding your counter top... I stopped using that top and use a small funnel instead and no flooded counter tops. (it's a small funnel that came with an olive oil sprayer for refilling the sprayer, but there are many small funnels that can be found in any store that would work). I did start to let it turn itself off and not worry about a timer to turn it off. I did install a water softener system and a couple of whole house filters to my water from the well and that has taken care of the problem with difficulty of cleaning. Seems the hard water residue was what was difficult to clean but still had a kind of iron/rust residue but that was still in a liquid state and has been easy to clean with pretty much just rinsing it. Since I use this distilled water for drinking and cooking after running it through a reverse osmosis filter and use more then a gallon per day and I like to keep a 7 gallon storage tank full of distilled water (for use in the reverse osmosis filter) I would need to run the 1.1 gallon distiller at least twice a day to not run out of drinking water. I did just buy the ROVSUN【Upgraded】 1.6 Gallon/6L Water Distiller on May 13th 2026 and run both once a day for total of about 2.5 gallons of distilled water. So far the 1.6 gallon distiller has been working just as well as the 1.1 gallon. The 1.6 gallon is of course bigger and is taller then the old 1.1 gallon and will not fit under the cabinets on my counter top as the 1.1 gallon does. It does take a little longer to distill the 1.6 gallons but it takes a lot less time to fill up the 7 gallon water storage container when using both distillers. I figure this is a ok temporary measure until I can buy one of those $1,000 plus 10 plus gallon per day stand alone distiller with a 10 gallon plus storage tank that can feed distilled water directly to my freezer's ice maker. Currently I use a table top ice maker and use the water from the reverse osmosis filter to fill it and use the freezer to store the ice in but not use the freezer's ice maker. Is using distillers worth the effort? Yes. If you could see the residue left behind after the distillation process you would wonder why you had been drinking water from the tap. The water from my tap has always looked clear and really didn't taste bad but I had noticed the scale build up on the faucets and shower head and the rust build up on the walls of the shower. It was why I bought a distiller for making drinking water but then after refilling the distiller several times without rinsing it the residue was a thick orange sludge and hard water residue that was difficult to remove, my first thought was "I'm drinking that!"... so I installed a water softener, whole house filters and bought the reverse osmosis counter top filter just to be sure the water is pure and safe to drink. The water softener does help a lot with the hard water and it also removes some rust from the water too as can be seen from the rust stains on the concrete in front of my garage where the water softener rinse water flows. I think in the end the only thing anyone can do to make sure their drinking water is safe to drink is by using a distiller which by itself should be enough but then running the distilled water through a reverse osmosis filter would make sure any VOCs are also removed. ______________________ I have well water that used to be very good tasting, the water was very hard water but I didn't mind that. A few years ago when I filled my pool the water was crystal clear even in the 7 foot deep end. Then for some reason over the last year the well water has been getting cloudy even in a drinking glass of water. Turns out was getting a lot of iron in the water now and and when used for cooking it would turn a kind of brownish color when boiled. I decided using that water for drinking or cooking might not be a good idea. So I bought this water distiller... I'm so glad I did. After running a first batch to clean out the distiller I filled up a 2.5 gallon container with a spigot I put in the fridge and filled up the gallon jug that came with it for coffee water, cooking and for my cat's water bowl. The distilled water is crystal clear and taste very good. I find myself drinking more water now then I had been. I do set a timer so I can unplug it before it runs dry so it wouldn't be too difficult to clean. About 3.5 hours seems to be a good amount of time with almost filling the gallon jug and still have an inch or so of water left in the distiller. And that water is disgusting looking... yeah it has all the hard water minerals and the iron residue in that left behind water. I do open it to refill as soon as it's finished (by timer) but it does boil the water into steam and that is why it's distilled water and if opening it while still full of steam you risk getting a steam burn. I give it a few minutes before opening it and open it away from me. It doesn't have much pressure as it's not a pressure cooker and doesn't have anything that locks the top down... it just sits on top with a silicon gasket holding it in place sealing it. With my water I can refill it once before having to dump out the remaining water and give it a rinse before refilling it. The negative side of it is the water pot is built into the bottom and trying to clean and rinse it and not get the outside of it wet can be difficult. I really wish it had a pot that could be removed like an instapot has then there wouldn't be any chance of getting the electrical parts wet. Hopefully this will continue working for a very long time. Time will tell on that. But for the price even if had to replace once a year it's still worth it to have good drinking water.

I’ve been using the ROVSUN Upgraded 1.1 Gallon Water Distiller for a little while now, and I’m genuinely impressed with how well it performs. The setup was simple, the instructions were clear, and the unit feels sturdier than I expected at this price point. The distiller runs quietly, produces very clean‑tasting water, and the stainless‑steel interior is easy to wipe down after each cycle. I really appreciate the automatic shut‑off feature—it gives me peace of mind when I’m multitasking around the house. If you’re looking for a reliable, affordable way to get purified water for drinking, humidifiers, CPAP machines, or even aquarium use, this unit delivers exactly what it promises. Great purchase and definitely worth recommending.

Have had this for almost a year. Use it about once a month for CPAP & essential oil diffuser. I clean it thoroughly after each use & ensure it is completely dry before storing. I have had no issues with leakage or rust. Reports of it failing after a year could come true here but so far I have no complaints. If you have hard water, as I do, cleaning it after each use is very effective at extending the life of the unit. I use hot water when I fill it to shorten the distill time. The noise level is a quiet and I don’t notice it running.

After a few years the second distiller was showing wear at the machine end of the power cord, getting warm when it operated. Since I was moving, I decided to get another one. Had to wash the interior with detergent and rinse with vinegar and run THREE gallons through it before it was free of the industrial pollutant stench, but it works just fine now. I LIKE the improvement of adding a rocker switch to turn it on and off. Distillers are essential for me -- the swimming pool smell of tap water is a deterrent to actually consuming water -- and dehydration is unhealthy. Tap water is (for me, at least, and for all the microscopic beasties who make it dangerous) toxic with the purification process that makes it "safe" to use. And running the distiller to fill glass bottles is cheaper than buying water, plastic wrapped and shipped from the factory to sit on shelves...

I wish I had chosen this brand the first time. I recently had to replace my old water distiller that I bought 3 years ago that was 4 TIMES (you read that right) the price as this one! I was upset that I spent so much money on a product that only lasted 3 years, so I abandoned that brand and found Rovsun. It looks nearly identical to the one I replaced. Main difference is the on/off switch in the back which is so convenient because I no longer have to plug/unplug to turn it on and off. I also love the stainless steel spout on the Rovsun compared to the plastic spout on the one I replaced. Distillation takes the same amount of time, which is roughly 6 hours. I should add that some reviewers complained about the PPM readings. Distilled water should be 0.5 PPM or less to be labeled as "distilled". But you need to keep in mind that not everything can be removed through the distillation process alone. You need to filter as well to remove particles that can't be removed from distillation, hence the filters they provide for you inside the spout. They're easy to change out. Just be sure to change them periodically. Changing them depends on how frequently you use your water distiller. Personally, I change mine monthly. Overall this is a great, inexpensive, water distiller. Highly recommend!
