bumping this thread asking for some personal review
I might be paranoid or am not.
So my parents house, they have this Coway water filter, love the function as i can easily dispense cold or hot water on the go. But i noticed this
1) I tend to drink lot more cold water if dispense from the machine.
2) drink 5-6 glass still felt, not satisfied/ drink more then bloated
3) making hot drinks using 3-in-1 the usually milo,hoc choc, nescaffe, taste abit tad different. Pale i would say.
at home, i boil water from filtered source, im using panasonic water filter.. it cost less more. Plus i always have stash of spritzer 1.5L carton box, at least 1-2 carton.
to my personal preference, Spritzer > filtered boiled water > coway filtered water
im not sure about other, but i guess drinking those coway filtered water, i tend to not satisfied and drink more till bloated. still doesnt quiche my thirst . Read about it, it uses RO method of filtration, does RO makes a difference? i do however dislike buying "drinking water/RO water" bottled, and always opt for mineral water when buying outside.
I wanna share my personal experience. I have a water filter machine from a very well known Brand which is using RO filtration method.I might be paranoid or am not.

So a few years ago my housemate got a job offer from Bank Negara. As usual, alot of hanky panky screening processes before they can provide an offer letter. Unfortunately she didnt get the job. She failed her medical checkup because of her blood test. Blood components all showing red remarks. (Eg platlet too high. Red blood count too low..etc) fyi she’s fit and all.
Anyway, the next year i went for my routine medical checkup with my colleague at work. Surprisingly both of us showing bad blood test as well! I was comparing with my last year’s result (which was normal) thinking what went wrong. Then i came into conclusion that it’s the water that we’ve been drinking. (She also bought the same brand...) What are the odds right? 3 people kena.
So i tried an experiment. I avoided drinking RO water for a whole year before my next year medical checkup. And to my horror it’s true. My blood test came back normal. i quickly called my parents to stop drinking from the water filter. My mom said no wonder the nurse keeps telling her that her blood is too light in color. (My fault i bought the same machine for them).
I’m not sure if it’s the brand or overall RO water is bad. My piece of advice is try to avoid them at all cost. And dont worry, the brand doesn’t start with a “C”.
