Reverse osmosis is here for the last 50 years at least, and it looks like it will be still here for the next few years or so. It is good and many people and households rely heavily on it. The latest models have integrated new technological advances that give cleaner and purer water, which is good because older models would not remove chlorine and other impurities from the water.

This filtering system removes copper and lead, as well as minuscule microscopic cysts that cause illnesses and even death in people.
However more modern water filtering systems are also available and they do much more than osmosis filtration system. For example, while reverse osmosis removes minerals from the water in order to distill the water properly, other purifiers that have 'ion exchange' do not remove these minerals, and that is a good things as minerals are needed for digestion and maintaining one's health.

Also while reverse osmosis filtration systems remove cysts, the kitchen over the counter filter systems also remove various traces of chemicals and prescription drugs. And they cost about half of what the R.O. system costs nowadays.

So basically there is not much that the reverse osmosis can do that others cannot do nowadays. The filtering system is based on an outdated technology, despite the fact that the companies try to modernize them wherever they can, and most of the times what you get out of your water is simply distilled water, and it is proven that drinking distilled water is not exactly good for the body. Basically when using a reverse osmosis water system, to get proper filtering, i.e. as pure water as you can get, you also need to use a disinfection system as well as granulated carbon, and in order to get nice tasty water, you have to re-mineralize the water that the reverse osmosis filtering process successfully removed.

The EPA (Environmental Protection Agency) suggests four main options for drinking water: the reverse osmosis water filtering system, the submicron filtration of the water, using boiled water and using bottled water.
Many people started to drink lately bottled water and practically every household has nowadays a bottled water cooler installed to give them fresh and cool water when needed. The only thing you need to worry about when you choose your bottled water supplier is to make sure that they use a good water filtering process so that you get the best and purest water in your bottles.
