Bluevua RO100ROPOT-LITE Countertop Reverse Osmosis Water Filter System, 5 Stage Purification, 3:1 Pure to Drain, Portable Water Purifier (No Installation Required) (White) (ROPOT-Lite(UV) Blue)

I absolutely love this water filtration machine! After using the Bluevua RO100ROPOT-Lite, I can’t imagine going back to standard pitchers or bottled water. The Reverse Osmosis quality is top-tier, and you can truly taste the difference in every glass. Why I highly recommend it: Convenience: As a countertop system, there is zero installation or plumbing required. You just plug it in and go. Compact Design: The "Lite" model has a sleek footprint that doesn't take up too much precious counter space. Speed & Taste: It processes water quickly, and the final result is crisp, clean, and refreshing. If you are looking for a high-quality, efficient, and user-friendly RO system, this is definitely the one to get. It’s been a total game-changer for our home!

I live in an area that gets it water from a limestone aquifer this makes our water extra hard. We had a 7 stage under sink system at our old place, but we recently moved into an apartment, so under sink systems are out of the question. I spent a few dehydrated weeks looking for an affordable counter top RO system. The company that made our old system has a counter top version, but it's twice the price... So this is the one I landed on. I struggled between the larger one and the smaller one but wtf am I going to do with 18 oz of water. That's like one gulp, so the small one was out of the question. Why I didn't choose the larger one: while it would be nicer to have more water at once, for me this is a temporary solution. We intend to move back into a home within a year. This will move to my work office when that happens and we will go back to an under counter system. With that knowledge I couldn't justify the extra money for the larger system, and the 3 replacement filters when it comes time. Plus it's only my husband and I so this is more than enough. I chose this one because I didn't want to wait for the water to filter and I didn't want plastic, so the glass carafe is nice, there are some models that store water in an internal reservoir, but you can't clean it. So glass carafe won. Things I wanted to know but no one said anything yet. 1) Flow Speed - Speed is identical to a standard drip coffee maker. After you get it set up it takes about 4-5 min to fill one carafe. 2) Capacity - the carafe is a little more than a a liter. Around 35oz... You can expect to refill your reservoir after filtering 2 full carafes (70 oz/2 liters). You will dump out about a liter of water. So 2:1. 3) Carafe Durability - I read some of the comments talking about the durability of the carafe. I would say treat this like a coffee maker carafe. It is just as thin, so even slight temperature changes can be problematic. I just bought 4 thicker glass carafes with lids, filled them with the filtered water and put them in the fridge. This solves 2 issues... I don't have to wait for cold, filtered water, and I don't have to worry about the carafe breaking because it just lives in the machine. 4) Taste: water taste great, not like nothing, but crisp and clean. I chose to not use the mineral filter, you can leave it out without impacting operations, which is nice. I kind of just feel like it's an additional cost that has to be replaced every 6 months. 5) Noise: this is essentially a Kurig. Instead of pumping water through a heater and coffee, it pumps water through an RO filter. So that's the same speed and noise of this machine. Honestly this is the best comparison. My concerns: 1) UV LEDs are ushualy effective for 10k hours and most people recommend changing them every year. There is currently no way to replace the uv filter/light. 2) The glass carafe is thin and pretty unique, so I would debate this if I had kids. 3) I like the one filter but idk how long it's going to last. Surprises in the manual/box: 1) Descale - your machine can slow down and may need to be descale every few month like a kurig. 2) It came with a infusion filter made of the same glass as the carafe. Maybe someone would get use out of it, but for me that just means I have to clean the carafe after using it. 3) It comes with some tools to clean, I haven't figured out how to use them.

I’ve had the Blueva since march 2026 and works excellent and the water tastes great. I had a question about how product works and customer service was also excellent. Works very fast as well.

I bought this filter to replace our very used Brita drip pitcher. Yeah, its its more pricey, but also this device Bluevua makes excellent filtered water. After priming and breaking in the filters, the water quality is very close to fresh spring water in my option. The Bluevua filtering remineralizer filter really makes water taste great again. The crazy thing is you start to crave the water because it tastes that good. The infuser addon is also a nice feature but generally we are too busy to mess around with adding fruit bits for flavor. Its just nice to hit a button and in less than a minute have 20 plus ounces of fresh water ready to drink. It very handy when I need to load up my water bottles for cycling or ready some good water for coffee. Honestly, I am very impressed with this device and not sure I can ever go back to anything less. Drinking quality water is important to stay healthy and promotes proper daily hydration. The main filter lasts a long time though a little pricy to replace, however comparable to other filter costs per volume, but the remineralizer cups less so; maybe 200 cycles.. Still, if your home is not sitting next to a spring then this might be the next best thing.

After owning this since Aug 2025, I am very happy with the water quality and taste. I used to use Zero water, but adding some of the minerals back does make it taste better. I wish there was a better way to drain the leftover water in the base, like a drain tube or something. And, PLEASE HAVE THE TOP SCREW ON. We have to flip it over to drain out the excess (our water is notorious for turning faucets and fixtures black with some gooey substance -> hence the water filter). Washing the tank is difficult. There are small creases which can harbor debris, and a toothbrush will not reach in the water level reader, so I had to buy some long brushes. Taking out the filters and springs to clean could also be designed better. Overall, I appreciate the water quality, UV, and the glass water pitchers. Cleaning and descaling are cumbersome, but it is a good trade-off for how long the filter lasts which is an excellent value compared to the cost of the Zero water filters.
