We have several used ones at the shop--can't give you any specifics, since I can't really remember at the moment. All are RO/DI with auto-shutoff valves. Conversely, if you want a new one, you can also check out http://www.bulkreefsupply.com, which has 4 stage units that are extremely affordable. You don't really need the added carbon block, which is redundant for the most part. If you replace every 6 mos. or sooner, you should be fine with a single carbon block. There are some carbon blocks rated at 20000 gallons, which last quite a while, also. The important things are a sediment, a single carbon filter, RO membrane, and one or more DI cartridges. If you still want the 5 stage, airwaterice still has the cheapest prices.

One other note is to make sure you purchased a TDS (total dissolved solids) meter, preferably a dual one. That way you can monitor post RO quality and post DI quality. Makes a big difference.
