Yeah, as long as they change the filter. (Most places don't, and don't even know how to.)

Do people ever install these in their house? That might be cool actually lol

The top 3 are all this.

The second one reminds me of elementary school because we had exactly that model.

I think we had the third, but I pretty distinctly remember there being a large metal "kachunk" bar like the ones they put on swinging fire doors. Maybe it wasn't this brand.

The C in the first model name stands for "Colored"

Kind of interesting that these have been a thing in Europe. It's all just regular taps and the few ones I have seen weren't very popular.

I think it's probably because people in North America generally really like cold water. Virtually every restaraunt will serve all their drinks with ice cubes. I personally find ice-cold water be rather unpleasant, maybe except when it's 30°C outside. These water fountains will refrigerate the water before it's despensed and they have a solenoid to control the water flow, meaning it takes very little force to activate.

Oh, yeah we do. I love ice water even while shoveling snow.

Really what's the difference between the top 3? Other than buttons.

Anytime I see memes like that, I am thankful I live in a country where I can just drink tap water.
