I have had Sears water softeners for over 40 years, about 10 years life for each unit. Virtually no maintenance except for loading salt for the water softener. We currently have a Sears whole house filter and a Sears water softener, and very happy with both. No idea if these are still available, but there are now combo units available that are half the size of the 2 individual units. Lowes and Home Depot sell similar units, so if you do not mind keeping an eye on salt level these are probably the lowest cost options, if you do not want to do any maintenance, then see above and probably below for other alternatives.
