Vevor Water Distiller, 1.1 Gal Distilled Machine, 750W Pure Distilling W/Bpa Free Plastic Container, Distillation Kit W/Button, Countertop Maker For Home, White

The vevor distiller machine came with a defective fun, it is not moving. I returned it and it is taking ages for to get back my payment. Very disappointing.

the water distiller doesn’t work at all, the product is a scam .

I'm not at all happy with the plastic lid of the carafe. The previous one had a metal lid.

This is actually the 2nd VEVOR distiller I am purchasing. I purchased my first one almost 2 years ago and it is still working like a champ even after I accidentally dropped it and the bottom plastic cracked on it. I use this to distill my water because I do everything possible to get my water to be H2O and nothing else. Distillation, for me, is a key step in this process. Setup is a breeze there's not much to it really just the reservoir, the lid, and the 1 gallon jug the distilled water goes into. There is this metal spout that you're supposed to put on top of the water jug, however, I highly advise against using that. I had it happen where the spout from the lid and the metal piece on top of the jug were not aligned properly and it resulted in water leaking everywhere. I tossed that metal piece into a drawer and just make sure the spout is aimed correctly so the water will drip into the jug. The jug has a really big hole so it's not terribly difficult to set it up without the metal guide piece. If you're going to use this in your house I would suggest putting in a room that is as far away from where you wish to be as possible because this thing will generate a lot of heat for the around 4 hours it takes to distill a gallon of water. My suggestion is set it up in a garage or something like that. Although a lot of stuff gets removed from distillation there is always some stuff that gets into the finished product as some contaminants have the same or even a lower boiling point than water does, so I suggest using some kind of filter afterward. I use a Zero Water filter for this. It does come with some cheap charcoal filter packs that you're supposed to install in the metal spout of the lid, but those don't seem to do much. I've noticed that without using the zero water there's a certain smell and taste to the water that isn't awful, but it's just odd and if I use the zero water that is removed. Sometimes I'll even filter the water before distilling it and then again after just to help keep the distiller clean. This brings me to the next thing, cleaning out all the gunk left behind. They give you a little bit of cleaning powder which is actually just citric acid. I got 2lbs for about $15 on here and it lasts me about a year. Could last much longer if you don't distill a gallon or two a day like I do. To clean this things you put the water a little higher than you see stuck on gunk and then just add in a tablespoon at a time while boiling the water with the lid off. Wait 20 mins if there's still a lot of stuck on gunk add another tablespoon and wait another 20 mins until you can see it's all clean. That's really it, this thing is very easy to use and like I said I've had one for over 2 years now so from what I can tell VEVOR makes a quality product and everywhere else I've looked for a distiller usually tries to charge $100+ for a basically identical device. Do not let the cheap price scare you away this thing is quality and will get the job done reliably for the foreseeable future!

Es muy buen producto

You have to see what remains after distilling the water... I would advise for the sake of your long term health, do not drink tap water. God bless.

I bought the VEVOR machine because I wasn't going to pay $5+ for a gallon of distilled water on the rare occasion I can find it, nor am I willing to replace my Keurig coffee machine annually. Our rural well water is very hard. We have an industrial grade water softener but it doesn't eliminate enough minerals to keep from destroying a coffee machine in less than a year or so. I also use a CPAP so I need distilled water for that. The pandemic has caused distilled water has become nearly impossible to find, even now during spring of 2023. On the rare occasion I can find distilled water in the store, it is horrendously over-priced. I've been using the VEVOR for about a month now. It works as advertised. Seems solidly built tho it is somewhat clunky to use. It takes up a lot of counter space while in use, so be aware of that. Unless you have a lot of counter space, this thing will probably not live on your kitchen counter. You'll have to figure out a place to stow it. That place needs to be near a sink for ease of filling with water and cleaning. You need to rinse out the mineral residue after every use. That's where the clunky part comes in. There are two AC cords. One cord connects the condenser (top unit) to the base (boiler unit), the other connects the base to your wall outlet. Both MUST be disconnected for cleaning or you could suddenly meet your maker. The base unit (boiler) is too tall to fit under most kitchen faucets. It is not submersible! You'll need a hand-held sink sprayer to rinse it out. It comes with a small amount citric acid, enough for 4 or so cleanings. You use that to dissolve and clean out the inevitable mineral build ups. Citric acid is cheap. Eventually you'll need to buy some once the limited supply they give you runs out. The instruction manual is some weirdly worded translation from Chinese into something that resembles English. But the operation is pretty obvious so you should be able to figure it out just from looking at the machine. It just boils and condenses water. It's not rocket science. The blue plastic collection bottle is poorly molded with rough edges where the cap screws on. No matter how tightly you screw on the cap it will leak unless you carry it completely upright. I suppose that could be fixed with a little bit of sanding or perhaps a cobbled gasket stuck into the cap. It's not enough of a deal for me to worry about. I'm not freaked out by a few drops of distilled water dripping out of the bottle as I carry it. Summary: It didn't cost much. If you only need a gallon of distilled water every other day or so, this unit should work out fine. It's not idiot proof, you have to be a bit careful with it.
