This video about the issues with Reverse Osmosis (RO) water filters is quite enlightening. Many people hurriedly purchase RO systems amid misinformation claiming that they are the most effective water filters. However, disappointments arise due to several downsides of these systems. Firstly, not all RO systems effectively filter out contaminants such as lead, arsenic, or chromium 6. Also, if you don't timely replace the prefilters, it may lead to membrane damage allowing toxic elements through.
 

On top of that, the installation process of these systems can be quite invasive and expensive, requiring drilling holes in your kitchen. Besides, they occupy significant under-sink storage space, which poses a great problem in space-limited areas. Ultimately, the water flow rate from these systems tends to be painfully slow, leading people to opt for unfiltered water instead.
