The retailer is Dong Vinh Restaurant Equip & Supplies, on Monterey Rd. between Curtner and Stauffer.

The head unit is $75 and the M filter $120. A bit on the expensive side but if it works as expected it will be about the same as the Crystal Geyser gallon bottles I use (based on a years worth of use). Hopefully if the Claris catches on, filter prices will go down.

So ... my turn for Guinea Pig mode. You're certainly welcome to stop by, check it out, run some tests, etc. And I do want to check out your T1 someday!

You are welcome to come by and pull some shots with my T1, however it's sitting on the floor in my bedroom right now. At least the drywall is done, I believe it gets sanded and painted today. Which means upper cabinets this week!!!! Lower cabinet and templates for the granite next week.

networkcrasher wrote:Cool, thanks George. The prices I got quoted were from this master distributor so I believe she said it had to be sold at MSRP, and she even told me it'd be expensive. the Head was 128.57 (and on backorder as well) and the medium filter was 221.42, which was in stock. Seems to be right in line with what your distributor is saying.

I wonder if the distributor has the same MSRP pricing or not.
