Damn good water. However
My roommate ordered two of these to our room last year. Damn good water. However, we found it incredibly difficult to get both cases to our room. At the shipping center at school, the largest equipment they had was a forklift; it could not do the job. Desperate and thirsty, I called my friend who dropped out of UofA Anchorage and now raises huskies for a living. He showed up with a massive sled and twelve dogs. We still had to make two trips, but we eventually got it to the door of our dorm.
We then had to take four rides in the elevator so as not to exceed the 1000 lbs weight limit (my roommate and I aren't in the best shape). Once we arrived at our room we realized that we did not have enough space for 144 cases of water, so we decided to remove all of our furniture except for our mattresses. We then left the pallets and furniture outside our room and proceed to order 20 yards of Scotch Jet Black Duct Tape (link below) and waited for two days. Thank god for prime free two day shipping.
After the tape arrived, we connected cases of water together to form all of our furniture and bed frames (talk about a water bed, right?). Afterwards, we still had a thousand bottles remaining so we built a wall separating a quarter of the room, purchased a porcelain toilet bowl (from Ikea), and sent our receipts for the wall to Mexico. You would have thought that there could not be anymore water in our room at this point, but boy, I tell you, rooms flood quickly when from drill into the water pipe under your new bathroom. Good thing we convinced our suite mate that he had done it while he was "out of it" the night before. Before you decide that I am a sociopathic jerk, note that I did give him a case of Nestle Pure Life Purified Water to drink off the hangover.
Anyway, the year came to an end and we graduated, but we had only drunk a couple hundred of our 3,456 bottles. Hopefully, whoever found it after we left put our water to good use.
In conclusion, this product is beyond satisfactory.
