I've had some success making my own. Place a deep bowl inside a large deep pot. It should be about 2" below the top on the pot. Add water between the pot and the bowl until it is about 3" below the top of the bowl. Add a plate (or inverted lid) over the pot to cover it tightly. Boil the water on a stove. The water will boil, steam will condense under the lid, and then drip into the bowl from the inverted lid. It works faster if you place ice in the inverted lid. My only issue was with boiling the water too vigorously and it boiled over the edge of the bowl contaminating the "distilled" water.
