We have loved this distiller from day one. Unbelievably easy to use, easy to clean and easy to store. However, we use this no less than 3 times a week. We prefer distilled water for cooking, we use it for our steam mop, coffee maker and iron. We have a family member who uses an oxygen machine and one who has a C-pap so we got them one also and they love theirs too. I can’t say enough nice things about it! Use your white vinegar to clean it…no need for anything fancy. Don’t use any abrasives on the inside steel…it will scratch it and it really doesn’t need it, the vinegar will desolve the calcium completely. I highly recommend it.
