hi all, starting Feb 1st Shopee-Lazada now effectively charge crazy 20% fee on the purchase price. I recommend once again to always contact sellers of water filters directly. Yes, there is recently an increase of 5% SST, but RM is also stronger, so effective prices didn't change. However if you look at the platforms, you will think that we have inflation of 100% per year... absolutely crazy....

QUOTE(HayateAyakasi8 @ Dec 3 2025, 11:48 AM) Quick update, proceeded with the Coway Cinnamon RO water - RM28/month for 7 years incl service. This is probably the cheapest water filter that you can get, at RM336/year I don't think you can get anything else for this price. Plus, this is including installation, servicing, warranty etc. So far so good  Did you check out Nesh? I only know their Hot Cold Filter Single Tap and hidden undersink filter is 4.5k one time... cheaper then LG Atom 1k.

Can you explain what are the major differences between Aquaphor Crystal Eco and Crystal Eco Pro besides the filter life?

There is little to no change from practical point of view. They say it is improved Aqualen and carbon block, but it hardly matters since replacement interval is still 1 year, as for most carbon based cartridges, time is the limiting factor, people rarely if ever hit the limit of L capacity.

So can the Crystal Pro replacement filters fit the existing standard Crystal setup?

Hi all. Any good brand to recommend that: 1. Can be used powered / unpowered? (just in case blackout) 2. Filter / purifier doesn't use bone char as carbon.

Bone char is almost never used, it is only used for fluoride removal, but most blocks nowadays are coconut

Hi, my cuckoo iris top just die, but i can still use straight from the filter outlet to gain access to my drinking water..
Any good water filter recommended? currently looking at LG puricare 518, but I am skeptical about the moving water outlet, whether the gear or motor will die in the long run. lol.
Any other good filter recommended around the similar price range?

If u go with subscription plan, warranty is covered for the whole contract period, LG will fix all defects for u FOC But 518 is phasing out soon, only left beige color and no more new stock coming in
