Anybody used these RODI units before. Looking on ebay and they seem to be well priced but I wanted to get some feedback. There are some other brands on there too but they all seem to be the same with different stickers. I don't know much about them so any advice is appreciated.

Im sure they are fine. Looks like they all take the basic filters (10x2.5) execpt:
the small DI resin stage. #5. You will want a std size refillable canister for that not their little one. Not sure what cost saving will be after adding another 10x 2.5 with bracket



I see where another brand has the proper sized DI

I think all of these will work. The important parts are the actual filters, and those can easily and cheaply be replaced. Looks like a great deal if shipping is free. You would save a few bucks in the beginning, I'd upgrade the quality of the filters when you need to replace them. A TDS meter and a pressure gauge would also be on the soon to upgrade list as well.
