Now as you can see I tried to keep everything as even as I could , there is a difference in price on these. They range from about 300 bucks down to 160.

I am looking at the last one.
I must admit it is a sharp unit and it comes with all the bells and whistles. I only wish they had a small unit that had everything this one does ( Im talking about the TYPHOON III)

Last one, or 3rd to last. "Those guys"
from the 3rd to last one have always been very helpful and treat to buy from. Either way, avoid a unit with a horizontal DI cartridge (junk, or upgrade to a vertical one like I did) and avoid a 100gph model unless you're sure the RO membrane isn't a DOW filter (it's a nano-filter, not a RO membrane, beware).

So are you saying that a filmtec membrane is no good?? IM a little confused.

All listed are very good units...The only thing I can say is Spectrapure offers tested membranes if you want to spend the extra cash, but basically the units utilize the same parts and are constructed the same way as well.....It comes down to price and customer service, and again what are you willing to spend, because they are all good.

Everyone of these units are in my budget as far as price goes, but that doesn't mean that I'm not a frugal shopper. I try to take all things in consideration. I know I like having a pressure gage and tds monitor. The most important things to me are, top quality water, and the cost of replacement filters , also refillable di resign ranks right up there.

The truth to the matter is that all the brands' housing is really pretty standard, what counts is the filters inside, and the hobbyists' wilinesses to change them out regularly....and that doesn't mean once a year.
I agree with what you are saying, but some may offer goodies along with the same type of filters, Most use the same ro membranes, some have been in business for a long time and have established themselves from the rest. This is why this is important, I don't want to buy some good looking ro/di that doesn't work worth a nothing, have filters that cost me an arm and leg, I'm one of the good guys who changes them all the time. I don't want to be duped into believing someones fictitious add just to see them close up shop tomorrow and move all there employees to China. So I ask what the people use? There experience is very very valuable and I personally treasure every ones time and contribution to this form and this thread. Thank You America!! God BLESS!!!
