I've got an Ecowater eVolution Refiner Power. Installed in October last year.
Basically a large water softener (approx. 300 days between refills of salt) with a carbon filter for taste. We got it installed along with a Quooker chilled / sparkling / boiling tap.
Very happy with it. Still got 138 days of salt left so it's roughly a year (370+ days) between refilling. App is handy in tracking water usage and service intervals but that's about it.
We're in a very hard water area (359.5ppm - It's removed 26.7Kg of 'rock' since install). Noticeable difference in limescale across the house. Shower, toilet, sink etc all stay cleaner for much longer. Water straight out of the tap (not chilled from the tap) tastes different but the carbon filter removes most of the 'softener' taste.
Would recommend.
It is massive though, so lives in the garage rather than in a kitchen cupboard.
