Five years with Kangen Water at home
We brought our first Kangen machine, an SD501, home in December 2021. Three years later we added a K8. Five years on, Kangen Water is still the first thing we reach for in the kitchen every morning. Here is how my family actually uses it, what it costs to keep running, and what I would tell anyone thinking about buying one.
How we use it every day
- Drinking: Kangen Water at pH 9.5 is our family's everyday drinking water, for me and for my parents.
- Cooking: we use it for rice, soups, tea and coffee.
- Beauty: I use Beauty Water (pH 6.0) to wash my face as part of my daily routine.
- Cleaning: Strong Acidic Water (pH 2.5) for wiping kitchen counters and chopping boards.
From SD501 to K8
Why I added the Anespa DX
I loved using Beauty Water, but carrying it from the kitchen to the bathroom every day quickly became a chore. So I added the Anespa DX to our shower, and now the bathroom is part of the routine too.
What it costs to keep running
The filter is RM 500 and we change it about once a year. The machine runs its own cleaning cycle, so there is very little else to do.
What surprised me
How much we use it. I expected it to be a novelty. Five years later, the whole family still drinks from it every day, and I can't imagine our kitchen without it.
My tips for new buyers
- Try it at home first. A free demo shows you how it fits your kitchen and your routine.
- Choose by household size and how much water you use, not only by price.
- Buy from an Independent Enagic Distributor so your machine is registered for warranty.
This is our family's personal experience of using the machine at home. Kangen Water is not a medicine, and nothing here is medical advice.
