Hi Gidget 
Oops, guess I should have posted this under the water filter thread. Just for the record, we have some of the best water around - South Florida has been eyeing it for some time. That being said, humans have an incredible knack for fouling their own life source.
I would eventually like to get a whole house filter, probably the Wellness. In the interim, a stainless steel Berkey is on my wish list. For now, it's a Brita. I stopped buying bottled water years ago.

The report looked pretty good really. I HAVE a stainless Berkey. It is awesome. Also have the travel Berkey which is wonderful and works like a charm.
I want a full house system but my dh said we are going to just stick with Berkey for now (I think I'll have to have my travel one upstairs for a midnight drink in the new house
Hope Santa brings you your Berkey!

Forgot to mention that the only drawback to Berkey is counter space and having to refill it. DH said he is going to put a floater in it so that it fills automatically - like he did with our hydroponic set up. Nice that he is such a tinkerer!!

The best water to drink
It would be nice to have several options to choose from listed here on sowal. I think the best water I ever had was "kangen" water, but it is expensive. The other water that I loved the taste of was straight off a waterfall in the carolina mountains. I believe alkaline water is suggested as the best water to drink - not an expert so maybe other people have suggestions.
