Top 10 Best Water Dispensers Reviews in 2022

Originally found only in commercial settings and offices, water dispensers have evolved to also become a household item. They provide safe drinking water, usually as hot, cold or room temperature water. If you are considering purchasing a water dispenser, this 2017 top 10 review will provide you with a list of the top dispensers this year. Before moving on though, here are a few things you should know.

Water Dispenser Purchase Considerations

– Standing vs Tabletop Dispensers

There are basically 2 water dispenser designs. There is the tabletop water dispenser, which is usually found on tabletops or other elevated furniture. It is also the standing water dispenser, which rests on the floor, and is usually a few feet tall. You should check your environment first, and work out which of these 2 dispenser styles would be ideal for you.

– Top vs Bottom Loading

Water dispensers can either be loaded with a water bottle on top, or the water-bottle can be loaded into the bottom of the dispenser. The top-loaded water dispensers feature a simpler technology, because they rely on gravitational forces to work. Bottom loaded dispensers feature additional tubes that are placed into their water-bottle, through which water is then pumped up.

Bottom loaded dispensers are easy to load with water, and is the better option for people who lack the physical strength to carry up a water bottle and place it on top of the dispenser.

– Material & Durability

One last feature to consider is the issue of product quality. You have to know if the dispenser is built from cheap plastic, tough plastic, or even metal. The important thing here is that the dispenser is built from good materials, and in such a good way, that makes it a durable appliance.
