Dude buys a machine for hundreds of dollars to drink water. Wait until someone tells him there are bottles.

It was $270 because it’s restaurant grade. This baby can produce almost 30 lbs of ice in a 24hr period. It does cold and hot water. So, you can have tea or instant coffee on demand if that’s your thing. It’s not my thing so I leave the hot water function turned off.

But, the problem with bottles is that I can’t grab a cold bottle of water without getting out of bed. I can literally sit on the edge of my bed, and pour a nice cold cup of water.

Modern life is all about conveniences. Before this I had gotten in the habit of getting a big cup of ice and pulling sodas from the 12 pack in my bedroom. I needed water access that was more convenient than that. Hence I bought a water source for the bedroom.
