Removes parasitic cysts to provide healthier water. Parasitic cysts may or may not be in your water.Provides ENHANCED reduction of chlorine taste & odor, sand, sediment, rust, and soil..... This is in the description of the advanced filter. The filter you choose should be based on what you intend to use it for, such as water for your drip coffee make or bottled drinking water. I find that the standard filter improves the taste of the water and removes sediment that is in the water here in north Florida. I took it with me when I made a local move. It was easy to install the first time and a breeze to install again after the move. The filter cartridge is the easiest that I have ever dealt with.

Not sure but I think advanced is a more powerful filter, our problem was a strong chlorine taste to our water which the standard filter took care of. We are satisfied with the standard filter. I think it depends on the quality of the water you want to filter.

Sean,Our systems use only standard parts, so upgrading is easy! Also, proper installation of hardware, that does not damage the system, will *not* void your warranty.

There is a big difference. My recommendation is that you stop by a Best Buy or store that provides both so that you can see. However, if I were to purchase anything in 2014 it would be Windows 8.

Thanks for the question. There actually is no difference. The "NA" is a internal part# addition that should have never made it to the web header. As a matter of fact, now that this has been brought to our attention, we will be submitting a request to have it corrected immediately.

There is a difference. The standard Platinum (3m 1171) will be more runny and have more pinholes and takes much more effort sanding than the Platinum Plus (3m 1131).

It's only American standard as far as I know. I think "Euro-Pro" is just a marketing spin on the name, not meant to indicate user specifications. I am still loving mine!

Both programs are pre-installed with the basic starter program. The operating system is Windows 7, which I prefer over Windows 8.

Not sure what the difference is, but we got ours for @$500 on amazon and it has worked very well with no complaints here; much better deal than spending $1000s on a custom installed system!

Sorry, I do not know the difference. If you do a chat with a tech on Amazon or call them they will tell you. They are very helpful.

The 'master system' is not a system at all. The only difference is it includes the adapter to connect your router to your power lines. If you are not going to use the powerline networking (or already have it), you do not need the 'master system' at all.

There may be some specs differences, but from a user point of view, practically speaking, they are very similar. Hope this helps.

The Control Panel says the Windows edition is "Windows 8", so I guess it is Standard. -Ken

Thank you for taking the time to reply. I went ahead and ordered the 880. The reason why I like the Advanced One is because it has so many buttons that you can configure. Plus it looks so slick in the black. Hopefully the 880 can serve all my remoting needs.
