Best affordable RO system for coffee? (www.baristahustle.com)

I live in a super hard water region. So hard in fact that it destroys every appliance despite regular descaling. I've remineralized 5l jugs of demineralized water for years but I feel it's not very sustainable in the long term. Plus demineralized water is not supposed to be safe for human consumption.

I'm looking for an affordable RO system that removes most if not all TDS so I can remineralize it using my favorite recipe.

Do you use any? What are your thoughts? Thanks !

Not specifically RO, but even better IMO: https://www.megahomedistiller.com/

Also, it's Made in Taiwan, so not supporting China.

I've been using this one for over ten years and it's amazing. Don't need to buy any filters at all, it's very simple and has just one button. Distilling is supposed to be even better than RO, too.

I've been drinking mainly distilled water the whole time and I'm totally fine. The stuff about it being bad for you is nonsense.
