 8800 Distiller July 28, 2010

I bought the distiller on 09/26/03. It was sold under the Sears brand. It has been great. We use it for the coffee pot and for making tea. My wife uses for all the cooking. I live in the Houston, Texas area and we have very hard water and you can tell the difference. The only trouble we've had is with lid. Over the years we have had to replace the gasket and the steam pipe. For me both were easy to do.

CONVENIENTLY MADE PURE WATER - WATERWISE 8800 May 3, 2010

I've owned the 8800 for a little over a year and use it on average every other day to make a gallon of distilled water . I've had no problems with the unit and have found Waterwise customer service to be very helpful and well-informed. As I say, I've had no problems so far. My unit has not turned pink as one reviewer reported and I cannot imagine how this could have happened unless that reviewer tried to distill bubble gum :). My unit fits comfortably under the kitchen cabinets and when I use it, I just slide the unit out so that it vents away from the overhead wood -- after all, it is a steam distiller! As far as it heating up the whole room is concerned, I don't find that to be the case. Yes, it does give off heat because it boils water for hours; what would you expect? But it does not give off a crazy amount of heat. I live in Palm Springs, California which is not known for its cool summer weather. Since the 8800 has a timer feature, I usually set the distiller to run at bedtime (when the electric rates are lower and the ambient temperature cooler) and thus avoid any heat issues since I don't usually sleep in the kitchen!
Yes, the carafe drips. I don't think I've ever poured water from it without dripping some. It is definitely annoying -- but, after all, life is a veil of tears...
The water I distill doesn't taste of plastic, or anything else. The carafe does not impart any flavor whatsoever to the water in my experience. I change the carbon filter regularly and the water is the purest-tasting I have ever had. Very wonderful to taste something this pure and refreshing. I wish you could see the gunk that is left in the boiling kettle after distillation -- to think that I used to drink that -- it's unbelievable what's in your drinking water! You have no idea how messed up your water is until you've used a distiller like this. I now use distilled water for all my drinking and cooking needs -- and even my big fat excellent cat gets distilled water. I am a big tea drinker and oatmeal eater and you cannot imagine how much better drinks and food taste with pure, uncontaminated water. Once you've gotten used to using distilled water, you won't ever want to cook or make tea or coffee or hot chocolate (if you don't use milk) with anything else!
I agree with another reviewer that starting with hot water in the kettle does reduce the distillation time somewhat. I also find that Waterwise's claim that you can produce 6 gallons of distilled water in 24 hours is way off the mark. This is because they recommend descaling the boiling kettle after each use, which I do. The junk that the distiller removes from the tap water is a hard mineral/gunk deposit (scientific jargon :)) that cakes on the bottom of the boiler and needs to be removed between distillation cycles. I can't imagine what the bottom of the kettle would look like if you actually distilled six gallons without descaling it; it would probably be like cement! Using the Kleenwise descaler (I don't have any affiliation with Waterwise!!), I find it takes about four hours to let the stuff soak in and make the deposits easy to remove. So, if it takes four hours to distill the water and four hours to descale, my calculations indicate I could make 3 gallons of water in a 24-hour time period (if I really wanted to stay up 24 hours/day making distilled water!). So, realistically and practically I will generally do 1-2 cycles per day, usually one. This is sufficient for my needs. If you want to provide distilled water for a family, you might need a larger-capacity distiller... I keep two five-gallon jugs, three 1.75 liter bottles, and a 3 liter hot water dispenser filled with distilled water. I live in earthquake country and it's good to have plenty of pure water on hand in case of emergency.
One more beef: if you accidentally dislodge the plug, the clock and the timer setting go to heaven -- there's no battery backup. Inconvenient, yes. Big horrible deal, no.
I think this is a great product and I'm sure the health benefits are considerable. I loves my tea and for the way it improves the flavor of teas and soups and everything else -- in my book it's well worth the price!
 Makes great distilled water- A few gripes. July 16, 2009

I purchased this a few weeks ago for my girlfriend, who only drinks distilled water.
Positives:
The water tastes great
Making distilled water at home is easy and SO convenient.
Easy to clean, design is nice and contemporary.
When you see what's left in the kettle, you may never drink tap water again. There is about a teaspoon of chemicals (fluoride, chlorine, etc.) and salts left after each gallon I distill (Los Angeles city water...)
Negatives:
The carafe is annoying to pour from when full. Almost impossible to not spill a little- I have now gotten in the habit of immediately moving the distilled water into another jug and starting a new pot right away.
I would give this product 5 stars except for the carafe issue.
Note: I agree with other posters that suggest that you start with hot water in the kettle. This saves at least 20-30 minutes in the process.
