ROVSUN 【Upgraded】 1.1 Gallon/4L Water Distiller Countertop Distilled Water Machine with Flame-Retardant Material, BPA-Free Container & Stainless Steel Interior, 750W Distilled Water Maker Purifier

This distiller has worked well for me for about 2 years now. I use it occasionally in the summer and daily in the Winter and Fall for my humidifier, which makes cleaning much easier than using tap water. I descale the insides with 4tbsp food-grade citric acid and running it for 30 minutes with the top off to boil the solution. After 2 years, the bottom of the distiller is slightly tarnished, but otherwise it is in good shape. I have never had issues with the fan or outer plastic shell. One thing that has improved the lifespan is that I only run the device for 3h30min at a time, so it never completely dries out. I recommend buying an electrical timer switch that will automatically power off the distiller. The noise is manageable. The provided instructions are clear and it is simple to use.

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.

This product is great! Our water is hard at 215ppm after tested with the TDS meter I got. Normal utility water is 50 to 150. Store bought distilled water is 003 ppm. I ran 2 batches of water through first, which the 2nd batch was 005 ppm. Then the 3rd run was 003, so as good as store bought. I did have a timer to plug it into and set it to 3 hours and 20min which left half inch of water in it. I highly recommend this. The instructions say to clean out once a month, but I am cleaning it after 3 batches since I just use it for coffee. I wouldn't go longer to make it easier and I just use warm water with vinegar and cleans fast and easy.

Perfect for machines that require distilled water (in my case, a bottle washer). I'm not sure I would recommend drinking it if you're particular about your water flavor but it's definitely been useful for the purpose I originally stated. It gets 4 stars from me because of 2 reasons. For one, it's a pretty loud machine, but it's also one of those things where you don't realize how loud it is until it shuts off and then it's really quiet. My other gripe is with cleaning it. The citric acid included was used up quickly, then I've had to purchase more a couple times which was not an expense I originally prepared for. Not that it's horribly expensive to buy citric acid, but with frequent uses you'll go through it rather quick. Overall, the distiller lasted me roughly 500 cycles before the button on the side decided to stop working properly. The inside of the top portion was starting to rust so I have absolutely no issues with buying another one. It's a great product for the price point if you have realistic expectations. I'd say for 15 months of CONSTANT use, I got the value for what I paid. I've just purchased my 2nd!

I have used this about every other day for 8 months with no issues. It has paid for itself twice over since I do not have to buy gallons of water. You must clean it, I remove the cooked on residue after each use, if you do not keep the botton clean it will stop working

I'm very pleased with this after 2 months of daily use. The previous distiller we used daily for about 3 years broke (motor burnt out), so I ordered this one as a replacement. One thing I like about it is the durable plastic pitcher. Our old distiller came with a glass one, which broke, so I always had to use a metal pot for the water to collect in and it therefore took a long time for the distilled water in the pot to cool. With the plastic pitcher, I can pour the distilled water directly into our brita pitcher right away once distilling is done because it doesn't stay hot. Secondly, I've only used two distillers so I don't know what the average noise level is. But I would say this one is the same in comparison to our old one - not too loud but not exactly quiet either. As far as how long it takes to do the whole gallon - again, it's the same as our old distiller, so about 3.5 hours. Thirdly, it's simple to use. Just fill it up and turn on the back switch. The front button is only for when the previous cycle shut off automatically (sounds complicated to a new user, but it's really not). I tend to try to switch it off before it turns off automatically so that I'm not left with calcified water at the bottom of the distiller. Sometimes, however, I'm in another room and busy doing other things so I don't shut it off and I am left with chunks of caked-on hard water at the bottom. My old distiller did the same so I'm used to this. I just rinse it well until the chunks loosen. I can't seem to get the citric acid to really clean the bottom well, but to me this isn't a big deal as this doesn't affect the water we are actually drinking. Lastly, I had a bit of a hard time "lifting" the spout to get to the carbon filter. I felt like I was going to break it considering how hard I had to pull to get it off. But the spout did come off and the filter can be changed. Maybe next time it won't be as hard to pull off. Overall, I'm really happy with this distiller and I like the look of it too!

This machine is excellent. I use the distilled water for my cpap, 3 humidifiers and drinking water for my whole family. We do add electrolytes to the water we drink. I store the distilled water in 2 5 gallon containers. It does put off quite a bit of heat. I have a laundry room with very little insulation and no heat vent. I usually put a small heater in that room in the winter and let it run continuously. I will now just use this distiller instead. 2 for 1. It's very easy to clean. I just wash it out and use a sponge between every batch. I put a 1/2 cup or so of vinegar and let it sit overnight after every 5 or 6 batches. It only pulls 900 watts. (says the product description. I haven't tested it.) If you have a decent sized off grid solar powered system, you could run this in the daytime with good sun and have clean water in an emergency. Great product.

I have two Rovson distillers that I distill 20+ gallons a week with. The oldest, at two years, has black plastic pieces, about the size of mouse poop, that are falling out of the top unit. Still seems to be working ok. The newest, at a year and a half, is working well with no “mouse poop” falling out yet. I would buy another when the oldest finally “craps our”.

Seems good I use it as a heater while it's in use

It does what it says and it's great for plants. Science: I measured this with one of those ppm tools Vs a bunch of water types (plant guy and want my calatheas happy - they go brown and crispy at over 100ppm and I'm in a hard water location. Baseline: 400 ppm hard water Hosepipe ban: 500 ppm (a lot evaporated I guess leaving higher trace minerals) Brita filter (knock-off): 350ppm Tesco's cheap bottled water-: 150-250 depending on brand Condenser dryer captured water: ~10ppm This distiller: ~10ppm So yeah it works and even my delicate plants are enjoying the water, even after that brutal summer just gone.

Very easy to use , hopefully save loads of money from now on

Worked for 2 times (8L) only, then no response totally. Requested for return and refund.

Its brilliant
