I wouldn't buy it since i love cold water and rare use hot, but this sucker gets up to 190F in temperature which is near boiling so you can cook your ramen, and burn your coffee with it. It would use a ton of juice to cool your water though so if you like hot water this would be good.
I like cold water though so I'll stick with a standard water cooler.

- Lack of self cleaning function means that you're at greater risk for developing things in your water you'd rather not drink. Even with self-cleaning machines its not 100% maintenance free, but it certainly helps in places it would be more hassle to clean.
- Lack of hot water temperature adjustment. Switch from getting water for French press to brewing green tea easily depending on your preference.
- It appears it is top loading (vs bottom) which means youll be lugging heavy bottles above it regularly. Bottom loading is much more convenient, but the pump may eventually fail. While if gravity fails we have bigger problems.
- Lack of a light. Instead of turning on the room lights, it can be helpful to just grab a glass of cool water after getting out of bed with a small light at the source.
- Other factors to look at for any dispenser: Noise, energy efficiency, child safety, aesthetics, warranty.
Edit: As for water supply, I go through a small local company. Their prices are the same as what the costco readyrefresh deal charges (IIRC), but when I call somebody real answers the phone and they don't have to do any awkward account lookup or stuff lol. It's kinda neat. But they often screw up on my bill, and then I have to call and get it corrected. The water is great though!

With reverse osmosis systems now very economical, why do people still buy water that cannot be hooked up to their ice makers?

If you buy an RO system for $200 and drink 1k gallons that's $206.. 1k gallons at $0.30 is $300
1k gallons is like a family of 5 drinking half a gallon a day for a year
But RO water might taste funny if you store it.. After an hour in a metal bottle it tastes like metal, after an hour in a cup it tastes like... Glass
