Verdict
Pros & cons
Die OsmoFresh Quella Pro ist ein Auftischgerät, das ohne Installation sehr weiches, neutral schmeckendes Wasser liefert und es per Durchlauferhitzer in 6 Stufen erhitzt. Sie passt zu Mietwohnungen mit ein bis drei Personen. Der Haken: Jede Tankfüllung ergibt nur 1,7 l, du füllst also mehrmals täglich nach, und die 100-°C-Taste bringt nur 80 bis 91 °C.
Pros
- Sehr weiches Wasser: 1,54 °dH am Auslass bei 22 °dH Leitungswasser
- Keine Installation nötig, geeignet für Mietwohnung, Büro und Wohnmobil
- Heißwasser in 6 Stufen, erhitzt nur die gezapfte Menge
- Kindersicherung sperrt die heißen Stufen bis zum Druck auf die Lock-Taste
- Werkzeugloser Filterwechsel per Drehkartusche
Cons
- Nur 1,7 l pro Tankfüllung, bei 3 l täglich mindestens zweimal nachfüllen
- 100-°C-Taste liefert am Auslass nur 80 bis 91 °C
- Pumpe brummt hörbar, auch wenn niemand zapft
- Außentank tropft beim Herausnehmen und neigt zu Algen
- Filteranzeige zählt Pumpenlaufzeit, meldet bei wenig Nutzung viel zu spät
Die Philips 6100 Umkehrosmose ist ein Auftischgerät mit Heißwasser, das gründlich entkalkt und filtert: Die Härte sank am Schwestermodell von 94 auf 12 ppm. Sinnvoll ist sie für dich bei hartem Wasser und einzelnen Tassen Tee oder Kaffee. Der Haken: Verarbeitung und Haltbarkeit überzeugen nicht, kochend heiß wird das Wasser nicht, und das Gerät hängt an einer herstellereigenen Kartusche.
Pros
- Senkt die Wasserhärte deutlich, am Schwestermodell von 94 auf 12 ppm
- Heißwasser in wenigen Sekunden per 2400-W-Durchlauferhitzer, vier Temperaturstufen
- Ohne Installation, braucht nur Steckdose und 20 x 30,2 cm Stellfläche
- Sparsames Verhältnis von Reinwasser zu Abwasser von 3:1
- Kartusche ohne Werkzeug wechselbar, Display zeigt Wechsel an
- Leiser Betrieb im Alltag
Cons
- Mehrere Ausfälle, Lecks und Fehlercodes im ersten Betriebsjahr, Service zäh
- Wasser bleibt trotz 99-°C-Stufe unter dem Siedepunkt
- Etwa ein Drittel des 4-l-Nachfülltanks bleibt ungenutzt
- Nur herstellereigene Kartusche ADD541RO passt, Lieferbarkeit war anfangs holprig
- Enge Tassenmulde, hohe Becher passen nicht, Wasser spritzt
