I didn't want to buy distilled water for my humidifiers and waste all the plastic from the bottles, and I couldn't install an RO filter system. Using distilled water in the humidifiers has solved the problem I had with excessive white dust collecting and even clogging my furnace filter.The machine is very easy to use and clean. I see a lot of bad reviews and photos. All I can say is you are using/cleaning the machine wrong. Let me explain:First of all, the safety switch is a backup, not the primary method of ending the cycle. You need to stop the machine before the safety switch trips. Set a timer and find a mark on the plastic container so you know when it's done. I go to about 1cm higher then the top textured band on the plastic container. You should leave about 1cm of water in the kettle. The safety switch is based on a temperature sensor, not a low level sensor (which would be ideal). Once the kettle is fully evaporated, the temperature will rise, and the safety will trip. This is when everything gets baked on and this is where you get problems. Don't rely on the safety to stop the machine for you. Super corroded and cracked kettles are from excessive reliance on the safety switch.You should shut if off before the safety trips. Let it cool for a few minutes before opening so you don't burn your hands with the steam that comes out. Don't open it, dump it, then add cold water. This can cause rapid contraction of the steel, which could also lead to stress fractures. Add a tiny bit of the citric acid (about 1tsp is all you need) to about 1cm worth of water, and swirl it around to mix it. I've also used CLR cleaner. Just a small splash is all it takes. Use a sponge to clean the sides and bottom. No scrubbing is needed. No green pads, and no backs of the sponge. Only the soft side of the sponge is needed. The acid cleaner does all the work. It takes less than a minute to clean this way. I've done about 30 batches so far. My photos show right after finishing a batch while it's still dirty (and with 1cm of water still in it), and after cleaning. This must be cleaned after every single batch. Do not run it again without cleaning it first!To address other issues in reviews: If you are getting holes or pitting in your kettle, that is because you are using a cleaner with bleach in it. Bleach pits stainless steel. This is well known. Never use bleach on stainless steel. Sodium hypochlorite = bleach. Check your cleaners and make sure it doesn't have this. Acid based cleaners are what you want.There are some complaints that the plastic container doesn't fit under the nozzle. This is because your nozzle isn't fully seated. You need to push it outward more. I can see from people's photos that they do not have the nozzle installed properly. The container does fit properly under the nozzle. Pull that nozzle outward until you feel it seat properly.If you use this distiller properly, and clean it properly, it works perfectly and will last you a long time.

We’ve been using this for more than a month and have had absolutely no issues making at least 9L/day for humidifiers and plants. Cleaning is easy but we have found using a little vinegar in the stainless steel pot helps remove some of the calcium build up a lot better than just soap and water. I’m not sure this was recommended in the instructions but it’s a stainless steel pot, a little vinegar isn’t going to destroy it. Rinse it out afterwards.

Funktioniert Super, enorm was an Kalk und sonstiges übrig bleibt

Love the ease of use - just fill with tap water and push a button. In a few hours you have a gallon of distilled water. It has a fan but I don't have any issues with the noise as it is pretty quiet.Been using my distiller almost daily and it is working perfectly. Water is clean and does not have any chemical taste from the tap water that is distilled.You have to clean the bottom after each use with citric acid (included) so the container does not get build up. I let it soak overnight and it comes out clean.Easy to use, fairly easy to clean and love the final results. Distilled water is over $2 a gallon and this saves me many trips to the store and having to recycle water jugs. All around win!

Product words great. Appreciate the small sample of cleaning "salts" for the dispenser. They work well and does not require effort. The machine does a great job. I'm using this for indoor humidifiers which are as much for my indoor plants and my health. I live in northern Virginia and bought this in Jan to add to a sunroom area that I am adding lots of plants to. It' does a great job of putting out humidity. Love the top fill. Takes a LOT of water each day. The controls and remote could be a bit easier to navigate. For example, you can set the humidity level but neither has up/down arrows on it or anything intuitive. That said, I'm considering either buying a second one for my bedroom/living room or the larger model to use.

excellent, fonctionne très bien, l'eau est délicieuse par contre le manuel d'utilisation et d'entretien est en Anglais et je ne comprends pas, ce serait super d'avoir des explications , surtout pour l'entretien

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!

Tarda un poco en empezar pero una vez que empieza la destilación son aproximadamente 3 horas.Un poco engorroso el poner el asa al montarla por primera vez. Máquina muy robusta.Buen funcionamiento, la puedes dejar encendida y no estar pendiente porque se apaga ella sola cuando termina.

I used the appliance and was amazed with what it extracted from the tap water that goes in to your body so now I’m drinking nice clean water
