Upgrade your water quality with Waterdrop Filter’s countertop systems from $200 for Fall Prime Day

Fall usually means spending more time at home, which also means more coffee, tea, cooking, and family meals throughout the day. If you’ve been thinking about upgrading the water setup in your kitchen without dealing with plumbing or a more involved under-sink installation, Waterdrop Filter has a couple of particularly interesting countertop options discounted as part of Amazon’s Prime Big Deal Days sale. Leading the offers is the Waterdrop M6CG Mineral Hot & Cold Reverse Osmosis System, which is down to $409 shipped from its usual $539 price. There’s also the more affordable Waterdrop CT01 Instant Hot & Cold Water Filter Dispenser at $199.49 shipped, down from $290. Both systems make it easier to keep filtered hot and cold water ready throughout the day, be it for filling up a glass to make coffee or tea, or serving family and guests during the busier fall season. Head below for a closer look and more details of the offers.

Waterdrop M6CG brings countertop RO filtration, hot and cold water into one system

The Waterdrop M6CG Mineral Hot & Cold RO system is the more premium option of the two, and it packs quite a bit into a countertop unit that requires no complex or permanent installation. That makes it a particularly interesting pick for apartments, rentals, offices, or anyone who wants a RO water filter countertop setup without modifying the plumbing underneath the sink. The M6CG combines RO filtration with remineralization and on-demand hot and cold water, with temperatures ranging from 59°F all the way up to 203°F. That means you can go from grabbing a glass of cold filtered water to preparing tea, coffee, cocoa, or other hot drinks without waiting around for a kettle.

Waterdrop Filter also adds minerals back into the water after the RO filtration process, which helps give it a more balanced taste. It’s a nice touch if you’re using the system throughout the day not only for drinking water, but also for beverages, cooking, and other everyday kitchen tasks where better-tasting water can certainly make a difference. There are separate clean-water and wastewater tanks inside the unit to keep them isolated from one another. The system delivers a 3:1 pure-to-drain ratio, while the collected wastewater can be reused for things like household cleaning instead of simply pouring it away.

Everyday usability is another big part of the M6CG. You get five volume settings, along with a customizable Favorite Mode that lets you save your preferred temperature and serving size. There’s also a 40-ounce detachable glass pitcher, which comes in handy when you need more than a single glass at a time for cooking, filling bottles, serving guests, or even topping up your pet’s water bowl. All of that makes the M6CG a pretty complete countertop reverse osmosis system for anyone who wants to step up from a basic filtered pitcher or dispenser without committing to an under-sink reverse osmosis system.

Waterdrop CT01 is a more affordable way to add instant hot and cold filtered water

If you don’t necessarily need RO filtration, the Waterdrop CT01 Instant Hot & Cold Water Filter Dispenser offers much of the same everyday convenience at a considerably lower price. It’s now down to $199.49 shipped for the Prime Big Deal Days sale, taking 31% off its usual $290 price. The CT01 uses a 6-stage filtration system to reduce chlorine, rust, sediment, and other common impurities that can affect the taste of tap water, while retaining beneficial minerals such as calcium and magnesium. Unlike an RO system, it also produces zero wastewater and does not significantly reduce TDS, which is worth keeping in mind if you specifically want filtration without stripping out the naturally occurring mineral content. Notably for everyday use, this unit can dispense both hot and cold filtered water on demand across the same 59°F to 203°F temperature range as the M6CG model.

That makes it particularly handy as the weather starts cooling down and hot drinks work their way back into the daily routine. You can quickly dispense water for hot beverages, instant meals, or just grab something cold without needing separate appliances taking up space on the counter. It also has a generous 1.32-gallon capacity, so you aren’t constantly refilling it throughout the day. And because the CT01 isn’t an RO system, there’s no wastewater tank to manage either. It’s essentially a simpler countertop water filtration system for apartments, dorms, offices, smaller households, or anyone who wants convenient hot and cold filtered water without spending over $400.

An easy water upgrade ahead of the holidays

These Waterdrop Filter deals are worth checking out if you’re thinking about adding a more convenient filtered water setup to your kitchen. Both the M6CG and CT01 give you hot and cold water on demand, but the M6CG is the better fit if you want a more complete reverse osmosis setup with remineralization and more advanced filtration performance covering a wider range of impurities. The CT01, meanwhile, is the more affordable option if you mainly want convenient hot and cold filtered water while retaining beneficial minerals and producing zero wastewater, all without dealing with any installation.

Waterdrop Filter’s Prime Big Deal Days offers will be live through October 7, and you can keep an eye on the brand’s Instagram and Facebook pages for updates as the deals roll out. Waterdrop Filter will also have discounts on several of its refrigerator water filters during the event, so be sure to check those out as well.
