I ordered two things from Amazon:

1. APEC Top Tier Supreme Certified High Flow 90 GPD Ultra Safe Reverse Osmosis Drinking Water Filter System (ULTIMATE RO-90)
2. Water Quality Tester

Immediately on arrival I began testing my tap water. It registered over 700 PPM (Parts Per Million)! That is well above any standard for safe drinking water and I was glad to have bought a reverse osmosis system.

Installation was relatively easy, taking about one hour to complete. There were detailed instructions to guide me through the whole process.

At this point, the new system was up and running. Immediately there was a difference in the smell, taste, and detected PPM.

The final installed APEC Ultimate RO 90 is shown below:

And finally, after one month of use, there has been a consistent sub 65 PPM reading on the TDS meter as shown below:

This is a rejection rate of 91.3%, which is definitely good for an affordable home RO system.
