I'm confusing to choosing water purifier, which i see there is RO water, mild-alkaline water, and minerals.
Forget alkaline, it is just a gimmick.
There is RO and so called "mineral". To make matters easy, RO is approximately 0 TDS (total dissolved solids). "Mineral" is whatever your tap water is, but in Malaysia most tap water is 10-20-40 TSD, highest I have seen was 70, but most is between 20-40. In comparison, in Europe it is like 200-300 on average. In other words, the whole concept of "mineral" has little meaning, but they aren't lying either, you do get some insignificant # of minerals and it doesn't affect your life.
However, there is a question of taste. RO and "mineral" usually taste different. It is acquired taste though, so after a month or so of switching from 1 to another you get used to it.
To make it even simpler, SK Magic dispenser is good, if you need a hot/cold dispenser, take it. Don't think about RO-mineral, it makes practically 0 difference except for taste, which you will adjust to anyway (and to SK you don't even need to adjust, unless you were drinking RO previously)
