Waterdrop

K19-SFK Countertop Reverse Osmosis

Annosa Favorite

Waterdrop is a trusted water filtration brand, and this reverse osmosis filter is ideal for renters. It has minimal wastewater (a byproduct of reverse osmosis filtering), a small countertop footprint, and even a version that dispenses hot water.

An important note:
Waterdrop has two other similar filters: the K19-H, which dispenses hot water, and the K19-S. Neither comes with remineralization filters. Reverse osmosis removes everything from your water, including minerals that are good for you. Remineralization filters add those important minerals, like calcium and magnesium, back to your water. This is why we recommend the K19-SFK. Plus, remineralization improves the water taste.

Ensure you replace your filter once per year with Waterdrop’s remineralization filter.
