Customers say's :
Excellent Product - If installer is PROFESSIONAL
First: the Navien NR-series tankless has only been in service since Oct 2009, so the 2yr+ ownership reviews were done on the CR-series. The CR-series did have issues which were addressed in warranty fixes and massively updated on the NR-series. Second: do your research. I replaced my 17yr old A.O. Smith gas tank with the Navien NR-240A. The NR met my criteria of long warranty, EF, min GPM (zero). It didn't hurt either that I was getting the governments credit either, so I went to energystar.gov to do a lot of research heavy lifting. The "A" model included a small buffer tank (to eliminate the "cold sandwich") and a built in circulation pump. Make sure your plumber (or if you DYI) installs recirculation T's at the longest runs (in my case, master bathroom). Combinded with the built-in circulation pump, this will also eliminate the time it takes to get hot water to your facet (example: from 60sec to 5sec). Do not go with marketing fluff from other manufacturers (such as "market leader",...

Disappointing
I had this unit installed in July of 2010. Worked great for a year. In July of 2011 we started having issues with it turning itself off. By unplugging it and waiting 30 minutes and replugging it in, it would work fine, for a time. Started getting worse to the point where hot water throughout a whole shower is a dream. We called the plumbers in October 2011, November, December, and they are still working on it. Sorry I bought the Navian and wished I'd bought a more well known brand.


Great product
I installed this unit to replace a smaller unit whereby I had to have a separate circ pump and separate electric hot water tank. This unit does it all. Turn a sink tap on, and wala! Hot water. Run 3 things at once, and no problem, plenty of hot water. Install was easy given I already had a tankless and so I had gas and a flue. Once hooked up, a quick call to Navian to verify some settings, and I was all set. The customer service group at Navian was great.
