Just wanted to give my fellow Autopians a heads-up on the CR Spotless system at Costco. I found this at my local Costco (Wilsonville, OR). They had 2 left.
 
It is slightly different then the system at Costco.com The one I got doesn't include the "BONUS" items listed at Costco.com
 
I never mentioned this deal because my local Costco never seemed to carry it. The only Costco I visited that carried it was at the new Costco location in Tustin, CA.



While cheaper than the website, it's not the same package. Not long ago they also ran a $50 (now that I think of it, maybe $75 off?) rebate off the CRSpotless and when you factor in the cost of the extra resin cartridges you get with the website's package, it came out to be a way better deal than the in-store price and package.
 
Oh man! I've been wanting one of these.



I didn't even know about the new Costco in Tustin. I guess I need to get out more.



If they were still offering $75 off on the online deal, then yeah it would pretty much be a wash (no pun intended). Without the offer though, the in-store deal looks very tempting.

It's in that new big shopping center... which I can't think of the name at the moment because I really don't head out that way very often. The Whole Foods in Tustin also relocated to this new location.

The only thing that you get in addition via the website package is a set of resin refills (R2-20)$90, a cheap hose ~$25, and some quick disconnects ~$20. So, the in-store price is still a better deal. Plus, it makes the initial investment that much more tolerable. The online price is still a steal compared to anywhere else on the web. Buying the replacement resin via the 45# drum is still the most cost effective way to refill the system.



Since my water here is fairly low in TDS (~50-80ppm), I should get a lot of washes before I need a refill. :woot2:

it's been a few months since I saw this item in-store and tried to calculate which was a better value and I remember the online price (despite costing more) coming out to be a better deal due to the extra refill cartridge.



Now that you've mentioned it though, I realize that I did not see this in-store for $200. It was closer to $275-$299 IIRC. So maybe they are clearancing this out like someone suggested?

Correct, most were seeing the in-store price at $299. I was going to purchase the one online, but when I saw it in my local Costco for $199, I had to snatch it up. With the $100 price drop in the store, I too suspect they are clearancing.
 
will this work with a pressure washer? i mean if put in front of? i am debating a system such as this or the tanks that de-ionize the water
 
Absolutely.



This is listed as a requirement on the Costco site:

"Need to Restrict Water Flow to 4 Gallons Per Minute or Less with Supplied Nozzle on FLAT Pattern or Optional Pressure Washer."

hmm for $199.97 it might be worth it to use with the foam cannon
