That is the one I bought and installed and could not be happier...It's great drinking water and I haven't had any problems with the tank, so I'm gonna say it's good there too!

The question is how many stages. I use a 4 stage reactor in water that arrives through copper pipes, and out of agricultural land. You should also choose a company that has replacement media: the cylinders wear out at different rates depending on your water, and you have to be able to replace them, which takes a cylinder wrench (should come with your set) and two NFL players to unscrew. The ro membrane has to be replaced far less often. I was quite impressed with BRS product and on-phone advice.
