Gene,
You are not the only one who got really bad vibes from this company. I too had 
unpleasant dealings, several years ago. The unit arrived damaged and it took a 
lot of convincing to get the guy to take it back, because he didn't believe 
that it was damaged (why would I lie?). I don't think UPS damaged it, because 
the outside box wasn't broken -- it was smashed on the inside. He also wouldn't 
send another one until he had the first one in his possession (my sending it 
back to him with the UPS tracking number wasn't sufficient). It took me almost 
one month to get another unit; and I believe I had to pay for the shipping of 
the second unit. Then he said he'd put my name on a list of customers he didn't 
want to deal with. 

After considerable searching, I managed to track down the same distiller. It 
used to be called "Love" (ironic name), and now goes by a different label, but 
it's either the same distiller, or one very like it.

  Subject: CS>Love Water Distiller


  I purchased a Love Water Distiller from American Water Distillers with this 
website http://www.waterdistiller.com/ about two weeks ago. Since we had some 
distilled water to make CS that I wanted to use up, I did not try to use water 
from the distiller until late last week. The other reason we bought the 
distiller was because we did not want to drink water with drugs in it. 

  When we put the distilled water from the Love unit in the SilverGen the green 
light turned on immediately, so I turned it off. I then tried to re-distill the 
water. I tried that in the SilverGen, and it still did not work. I called 
American Water Distillers today, and had a very unpleasant conversation. They 
said they would not refund my money, but I could return the unit, at my 
expense, and they would check it and, if it worked to their satisfaction and 
made "distilled water", they would return it to me at my expense. I took the 
unit out and dumped it in the trash. I was not about to spend another cent on 
that unit.
