Or, let's first dig into the factors to consider...
You may have even bought alkaline water at a health food store. That's a good start, but it's like one leg of a three-legged stool which you'll discover below...
Factors to Consider
Factors to Consider
Water Consumption
Water Consumption
Contrary to initial impressions, the volume of water used every day (family size etc.) has absolutely nothing to do with Ionizer selection.
That's because the smallest unit can create as much water as the most powerful unit.
Instead, the three fundamental characteristics of Kangen Water are (a) antioxidant power, (b) cell penetration power, and (c) alkalinity (high pH).
You can buy alkaline water at a health food store, but water with all three of those characteristics has a very short shelf life... half power in just three days!
That's why you need an ionizer to produce fresh Kangen Water every day.
pH Range
pH Range
All models create a pH range from 2.5 pH (Strong Acidic Water) to 11.5 pH (Strong Alkaline Kangen Water).
The more powerful the model, the more potent all of the waters are. This results not just in more powerful drinking water, but also in expanded capability for a variety of uses.
You'll discover the many other uses of 2.5 to 11.5 pH waters here:
Most Important: Antioxidant and Cell Penetration Power
Most Important: Antioxidant and Cell Penetration Power
The more powerful the model, the more powerful the antioxidants and cell penetration power -- many, many hours after you consume it -- while it's being utilized within your 70 trillion cells.
Those two characteristics are even more important than the much acclaimed alkalinity.

Our Personal Experience with Different Models
Our Personal Experience with Different Models
We almost made the mistake of buying a competitor ionizer "Just as Good at Half the Price". But the "engineer in me" more deeply analyzed the market and we decided to purchase an ionizer only from Enagic, the premiere ionizer company.
Wow, was that a great decision!
We initially purchased the $1290 Sunus (no longer available) at first because we wanted to pay cash.
Then several weeks later, we came to realize that since this is a 15-20 year product (based on Enagic's 50 year history of supplying to hundreds of hospitals in Japan... NOT marketing hyperbole), that we should be drinking absolutely the most powerful Kangen Water available.
Therefore we subsequently bought an SD501 (the K8 was not available at that time).
We saw remarkable differences, as we could compare the two side by side in terms of the health outcomes. We have more detail of our side-by-side experience which we can provide in a separate email if you want to read it.
A quick glimpse: our daughter Susan was able to eliminate all 13 of her medications simply by switching from Aquafina to ionized alkaline water.
Jr II
Jr II
This model Produces more powerful Kangen Water than the R Model, and it can additionally produce 2.5 pH Strong Acid Water and 11.5 pH Strong Kangen water (just like the SD501 and K8, but not as strong) for just 10% higher cost than the R Model - $2380
More on that here... I'm Drinking 9.5 so Why Should I Care about 2.5 and 11.5 Water??
See more detail on the Jr II Model page of the Enagic website. (John note: It's called the "Energy Saver", but the total electric cost for any of these ionizers, even the most powerful models below, is less than $10 per year!)
SD501 Models
SD501 Models
The SD501 was the industry leader until the K8 was introduced, and is still an excellent choice - $3980. It is considerably more powerful than the R Model and the Jr II.
See more detail on the SD501 Model page of the Enagic website.
Silver Colored SD501P - to match your stainless steel kitchen appliances - $4280.
See more detail on the SD501P Model page of the Enagic website.
Under-Counter SD501U - $4980.
This under-counter variant requires an advanced do-it-yourselfer or professional to install , whereas all other models are relatively easy to attach to your faucet.
See more detail on the SD501U Model page of the Enagic website.
The following is a lower cost alternative to an installation with minimal exposed hoses...
Separate Dispenser Options
This vendor has several options for separate dispensers for the counter top models (a dispenser can be purchased later if you wish):
K8 - Newest and Most Advanced Model
K8 - Newest and Most Advanced Model
The ultra powerful K8 features even stronger ionization, eight languages, worldwide multi-voltage supply, and very easy maintenance. It is offered at $4980.
