Price, easy to install, no need for electrical connections and the most important one, the Costco “lifetime” warranty if something go wrong with it.

It's night and day. But note of caution, once you get used to drinking RO, it sort of ruins drinking other water.

Nope, the RO can show the proper pressure, but it's inconsistent. I do appliance repair and work directly with the manufacturers. This is per tech support for each particular brand.

TDS is not a good indicator of whether the water is free of the bad stuff you need to be filtering out. It's a brilliant marketing gimmick though.

My understanding is these tankless systems are actually worse for waste ratio. It has to pump faster to provide proper flow which ends up wasting more water.
