The deciding factors
If someone asks for one water purifier recommendation without telling me anything about their water, this is the answer. The Grand Plus is not the prettiest or the cheapest unit in this list, but it is the most consistently correct one: an RO membrane rated to 2,000 ppm input, UV and UF stages behind it, and a TDS controller so that low-TDS supply does not get stripped to tasteless.
Against that, Pureit Copper+ RO makes its case differently: Pureit's defining design decision is the one most buyers complain about and I think is exactly right: when the germkill kit reaches the end of its rated life, the purifier stops dispensing. Not a beep, not a blinking light you learn to ignore — it stops. Every other brand relies on you noticing an indicator, and in practice most Indian households run filters months past their rated life, which quietly turns a purifier into a contamination source.
Our practical advice: unless the KENT Grand Plus's specific advantages match a real constraint you have — tank size for long water cuts, a higher TDS rating for brackish supply, hot water you will genuinely use — the cheaper unit is the better purchase. In this category, paying for capability you will never use is the most common way money gets wasted.
