Having had the system for six months I am quite happy with it. However, if you maintain the machine as per the manual it is surprisingly expensive so unless you use a lot of drinking water it may work out more expensive than buying bottled water. Ah you say but it’s saving all that plastic. Is it? Just think about the environmental aspects of manufacturing the unit and the replacement of quite large and substantial plastic filters. So it’s my opinion that the economic and environmental cases are a bit shaky. However, having said all of that, the convenience of hot and cold quality water available as required is a luxury not to be sneezed at. Whether Bibo is the best offering in it’s class I do not know. But the machine seems to be well made, and so far the service is very good, so I’m hoping it will pay off in terms of longevity.
