The description saysT-KJr2 is the smallest model they make... good for small apartments. Will this be good for ~1500sq/ft / 2-4 people?

I have mine in a house with 2 full bathrooms and kitchen and it works great, I put one in a different house about 4 years ago and liked it so much i put one in this one as well.

The T-kjr2 is good for up to two bathrooms. So small apartments would work fine in my opinion.

I installed this last year in my 4500 sq ft house with just 3 adults. It works perfectly for our needs. Like other says, its not instant hot water (unless you got some fancy recirculating hot water system for the whole house), but unlimited hot water once it flows to your pipes.I've been able to achieve to operate 2 showers and a faucet head without issue. The most stunning think, like others say, is just how small this thing is and how light! Shoot my desktop PC that I'm typing on is bigger, weights more, louder and puts off more exhaust heat.When we sell this house, better believe we are taking this with us!

I bought one of these(T-KJr2) and installed it into my 4 bedroom 3 bathroom house in July of this year 2013 and it works great! There are 4 adults living in the house and no problems.

This model is the 6th Takagi- 2 in a large restaurant, 4 in various homes, that I've bought. I bought the T-Kjr2 to replace a 6 year old Bosch bought from Home Depot. My experience has been that these are the best. This unit is so small it quite amazed us how much hot water it outputs--way, way better than the Bosch. We can run a shower and wash dishes at the same time where we could only run 1 source at a time with Bosch--but we are a household of 2. My experience suggests that it will work fine for you.

There are four volume settings and the lowest volume would be fine for an apartment. If you think that is too loud, I put a piece of scotch tape over the speaker hole and the volume got even quieter.

Yes, it is perfect for a small home with 2 residents. We are using it with 2 adults and a toddler at our home and have found it to be perfect. We do need to be consistent about filling it each morning and late afternoon, based on usage, but I got a tall glass pitcher for that purpose, which stores nicely right behind the Travel Berkey.

I wouldn't waste money on this machine, spend a little more and get a machine that will not fall apart before you even use it. That being said, from the way it appeared to be made for smaller areas.

altho the unit has been a "steady eddie" it is slow and not big enough to handle my basement. If you have a large area I would get a larger model the dementions seem right in prior answer

I found it working pretty good. I have not used it intensively, may be 3-5 times, sound was same and teh connection did not break. I used it in 50 m2 room and I may say the 2x30 W was not giving high power as much as I expected. For smaller rooms, should not be an issue. I am very happy with NAD 3020 in general.

It's pretty small...Check the measurements. Don't think you'll find anything cheaper. The plastic legs on the bottom will break quickly. You'll probably want to get extended warranty if you buy it.

The one I have is small. If you have fine motor skill concerns, I would look for another one. Hope this helps.

It will be less but it sounds like you have a ventilation problem to solve if temps are too high with T5s in such a small space.

If you need to move the unit from room to room get the portable set-up is easy or if your apartment or condo has restrictions on window units as a side note get the biggest BTU unit you can afford it pays off when it gets very hot and humid I've had good luck with the NewAir models.

It will be very hard to mantein 65 degrees on 650 sq. Feet, & if is not on the temp will drop fast. It is good in bathroom or on in smaller rooms. And watch the electric bill. But it is still very good. I love mine

I think it should work fine - I've used it for a large living room and on low, it worked well for awhile. I've had mine for a little over a year though, and its been making some strange grinding noises - and I think its on its way out. This will probably only last 1 or 2 winters :/

This is my first purchase and I am not sure how the other models are. I only know the one I bought (J8005) is super quiet. Really nice.

This unit looks great and is super quiet but it doesn't cool very well. I had an old clunker that would freeze me out. This unit will work best in a small room. It's perfect for a small bedroom--a very small bedroom.

It works for a two bedroom rental apartment with 4-5 people. I think it should work well.

I am not sure what small means. A few inches of clearance is all that is needed. It is thermostat controlled, so it should not overheat the space.

I placed this unit in a wall, 2 " in is all I placed the unit. It works verry good in a 900 sq ft home. As long as the cover is in your in good shape, anything beyond that is up to you.
