Default can someone reccomend an rodi unit?

Im throwing in the towel when it comes to buying water 5 gallons at a time. Can someone recommend a few that come to mind? I have been reading reviews and doing my research but still cant just put a finger on the one i should buy. There just seems to be too many to choose from. (buckeye, vertex, aquatic life, aquafx...) Ill be upgrading to a 60 gallon setup soon.

I got a vertex and am really impressed with it, its got built in tds meter and auto backflush with a booster pump. That alone puts it above most, only down side is at new had a few leaky fittings and had to disassemble and reseal the unit. Been using it for over 2.5 years now and no issues

I have sold a number of the Vertex and all of my customers have been very happy with them! They are nice units and great quality!

There are some posts on nano-reef recommending Spectrapure and Buckeye Field Supply. Search for the user azdesertrat... he has some good posts looking at the cost/gallon and some other features to consider. I bought a Buckeye unit and am happy with it.
