Y9A UV Countertop Reverse Osmosis Water Filter, Alkaline | Remineralization 6 Stage Purification, RO Water Filtration System, 300 GPD Fast Filtering Water Purifier

I purchased this SimPure water pitcher in November 2025 and overall I’m very happy with it. The water tastes much better and cleaner, and it has helped me reduce bottled water use at home. The pitcher is easy to use, easy to refill, and the design fits well in the refrigerator.What I like most is that the filtration is fast enough for daily use and the filters are reasonably priced compared to other brands. The plastic also feels decent quality and not too flimsy.The only reason I’m not giving 5 stars is because I wish the filter lifespan indicator and pouring design were a little more refined, but overall it has been a very good purchase for the price.I would recommend it for anyone looking for an affordable everyday water filtration option.

We bought the SimPure Y9A as a no-installation alternative to an under-sink RO system, and after several weeks of daily use, it’s earned its spot on the counter.Setup & Design: Genuinely plug-and-play. No drilling, no plumbing, no calling a handyman. Fill the back tank, plug it in, flush the filters per the manual, and you’re dispensing within 20 minutes. The footprint is reasonable for a 4-stage RO + UV system — smaller than I expected. The TDS readout on the front is a nice touch; ours dropped from ~180 ppm tap to single digits within the first few pours.Water Quality: This is where it earns the price. The 4-stage filtration (sediment → carbon → RO membrane → post-carbon) plus UV sterilization produces water that tastes noticeably cleaner than Brita-style pitchers. No chlorine taste, no metallic edge. The pH+ feature adds back minerals so the water doesn’t taste flat the way pure RO water often does.Dispensing: Multiple temperature presets are useful — instant hot for tea, room temp for drinking, and adjustable volume. The hot water is genuinely fast (under 5 seconds), which replaced our kettle.What to Know Before Buying:• Like all RO systems, it produces wastewater. The drain tank fills up and needs to be emptied — not a dealbreaker but worth knowing.• Filter replacements add to long-term cost; budget for that.• It’s not silent when filtering, but it’s quieter than a dishwasher.Verdict: Excellent fit if you rent, can’t install under-sink plumbing, or want clean water without committing to a permanent system. The combination of RO + UV + remineralization at this price point is hard to beat. Would buy again.

I can already tell this is one of the best purchases I’ve made for my health and home. There are so many reasons I love this water purifier. First, the setup could not have been easier. The quick start guide walked me through everything step by step. All I had to do was rinse the tank, fill it up, and plug it in. It started running automatically, and after cycling the water four times as recommended, it was ready to go.The filtration power is impressive. This system can filter up to 300 gallons per day, which is far more than most countertop filters. With its 6-stage purification process and 3 advanced filters, it removes 99.9% of bacteria, viruses, heavy metals, and contaminants. The replacement filters are affordable and do not need to be changed often, which makes it both cost effective and convenient.The taste of the water is outstanding. It is crisp, clean, and has no strange odor. I made sure to get the version with remineralization, and I am so glad I did. Standard reverse osmosis removes everything, but this purifier adds back essential minerals like calcium, magnesium, and potassium. Not only does the water taste fresh, but it also supports better hydration and overall health. You could add minerals separately with drops or sea salt, but having the purifier do it for you makes life so much easier.The design is another big win. It is compact, sleek, and fits perfectly on my countertop without taking up too much space. There is no complicated plumbing or installation required. Just plug it in and you have pure, mineralized drinking water at your fingertips.If you are looking for a high quality purifier that gives you peace of mind, saves money on bottled water, and actually makes your water taste amazing, this is it. I highly recommend the SimPure Y9A to anyone who wants a healthier, more convenient way to enjoy clean water every single day.

Do not buy!!! I would give 0 stars if I could. I had another Simpure that broke in less than a year, but decided to give Simpure another try with the Y9. It broke in less than 3 months and did not filter the water properly. Since I bought protection through Asurion, I thought they would replace and they didn’t. I had to go through Simpure manufacturer and they refused to replace the system and sent me water new filters to replace the less than 3 month old filters. The machine still did not properly work. I’ve been drinking out of water bottles for over a month now which is ridiculous for a machine I paid over $350 for with “protection”. And when I try to get ahold of someone through customer support, no one ever answers. Don’t waste your money!!!

The water tastes great and I change the water about once per day. Twice per day if I am using the water for cooking, such as pasta. I did have to flush it about 10 times (they recommend at least 3-5 times) before I stopped getting floating stuff in the water. They mention in the manual this can happen due to the protective liquid (food grade glycerin) in the RO filter cartridge and that it disappears after flushing. However, I started getting floating stuff in the water again after a little while. Not sure why it keeps coming back if they said it disappears after flushing. It is not coming from my tap water. I wish they had the rejected water in its own isolated compartment or at least have the divider closer to the top. The rejected water constantly enters the feed/source water, so the system is constantly trying to filter water that it has already filtered. I used water test strips and a TDS meter. Tap water ranges from 430-450 ppm. Filtered water through this ranges from 40-50 ppm and bottled water was 20-22 ppm. The top part of the water tank is starting to bend on the left side. There are no latches or anything to secure the lids. They lay flat on top. I have dropped the lid into the water tank several times when I go to change out the water. It does take a while to dispense the water, especially if you are using a lot for cooking. I suggest getting a pitcher or water bottles to fill them beforehand. I wish the water dispenser itself was higher as I cannot fit containers greater than 8 inches tall underneath it. Some water bottles will not fit. I usually have to move the magnetic drip catcher as well. I do have to wipe down the water tank and the part of the system that holds it every time I change the water to help prevent leaks. Otherwise, water will leak around it when I place it back in. It is a bit concerning how close it can leak next to the power cord in the back if you are not careful. This is still a decent system and it fits in my apartment.

After using zerowater filters for multiple years and having to change the filters every 2 weeks, I found this RO system very useful. After search for a countertop RO systems for multiple weeks, and reviewing multiple products online, I finally bought this and it meets all my expectations.Its been almost 2 months since I started using this. The instruction booklet is clear with the steps to initial setup and filtering, and maintenance of the system. The filters come pre-installed and is very easy to setup for the first use. It is also easy to get the filter cabinet and to unplug and plug new ones when needed. The water filtering and dispense is quick after touch of the button. I am impressed with the taste of the water. I love the fact that it adds minerals to the water after RO filtration which I was missing when using the zerowater filters. I like the design with the water tank on the side, I just feel it is more practical making it easier to access for filling and emptying. Overall it is a great value with reasonably priced RO system.

It worked great until it started to leak. The tank is a pain to keep clean. I would not purchase this item .

Had to read the troubleshooting steps to fix a taste issue but the troubleshooting worked perfectly and we love this! Even my nephew who swears he'll only drink Essentia PH water said it tastes just like it lol. I bought this during prime day and glad I did. As far as testing it, I didn't. I just wanted my water to taste better than my Brita and this does! Pouring speed is pretty fast, no leaks, hold over a gallon. Only issue is the minimum line, wish it actually used all the water. Install was super easy though.

Absolutely love this! Water tastes just like it came from an under sink reverse osmosis system. We live in an apartment and like our reverse osmosis like we had in a house. And it isn’t overly big.

Excellent reverse osmosis machine the best money can buy.

I have been using this for 1.5 months. The filters are supposed to last 6-9 months. We are a family of 3 and the TDS when we installed it was 20 ppm. After one month it went to 35 ppm and now it is at 71 ppm at 1.5 months. You can see a picture. We live in Toronto so the starting TDS is 151 ppm. I am going to have to purchase a new filter system which together cost $200. If that is how my no have to spend every year = $1400 a year on Top of the $550 price tag. It is not worth it.
