Reverse osmosis systems: brands compared on published prices
Reverse osmosis pushes water through a membrane fine enough to reject dissolved solids, the tightest household treatment short of distillation. Most systems in this category are under-sink units for the drinking tap; whole-house membranes exist for the cases that justify them. Priced systems below are quoted verbatim from each brand's page.

Choosing an RO system
Under-sink RO is the default buy here: it treats the water you actually drink and cook with, at a fraction of whole-home cost, with tank and tankless designs both represented in the table. Check the stage count and what each stage does on the linked pages; more stages is marketing until the page says what the stage removes.
Two running realities decide satisfaction: RO sends reject water to the drain, at ratios the brands print, and membranes plus pre-filters are consumables on a schedule. Both numbers live on the same product pages as the prices, and both belong in the comparison.
Common questions
- What does a reverse osmosis system remove?
- Dissolved solids broadly, which is what distinguishes membranes from carbon: the linked product pages carry each system's specific reduction claims and certifications, and those pages, not the category name, are what to verify against your test results.
- What does a home RO system cost?
- Under-sink units from the priced brands below are advertised at the verified figures shown; whole-house RO is often engineered per home and quoted rather than listed, and where a brand publishes no price this index records that fact.
