[quote:Another Anonymous Coward 37244555:MV8xNjE3NDY5XzM3MDE3NTQ0XzRGNDVBRkI1] I searched for info on this because I am considering getting one. I'm not interested because of their advertising and website information, but because a friend of mine hooked one up for his mom and has since decided that he needed one too. She got it because of advertising claims but once he put it in the difference in perceived water softness was noticeably better. Since none of the chemical makeup of the water changes then any testing done will still show hard water since the calcium/lime/whatever is still there. Unless they do testing different now than they used to the test finds what's in the water, then assumes certain hardness characteristics based on that. If the claims are correct, that the same minerals in the water now act different, then a water hardness test won't prove anything. All I know is that this lady has now bypassed a major water softener system that had been designed and installed by a long time well trusted water guy in our town. It wasn't just your basic off the shelf home softener system. My skeptical friend decided to go cold turkey and bypass that system to see if the scalerid would do anything on its own, then put the softener back inline if needed. Within a week or so she noticed improved "softness" (soap suds, soft hands, tings like that) and my once skeptical friend ordered one for himself. Usually if it sounds too good to be true, it is, and I'm still not certain I will order my own (not quite the same water problems as her), but just wanted to say that though skepticism is important some of the arguments in here against the system aren't fact based, just skepticism based.

Original Message
I'm just looking at getting it and was wondering if anyone on GLP has used it. If so, could you please tell me if you think it's worth it?
Thanks!
