They’re not water softeners. They are water conditioners, they change the state of the water so that the calcium carbonate (limescale) doesn’t stick to things. It’s still present but it just washes away.

They IMHO aren’t as good as a traditional water softener by any means as a water softener actually provides soft water.

The conditioners are still good though and effective. The question is though, is it worth spending the extra on an Aquabion over a Stuart Turner (for example) that I don’t know.

I’m friends with the Developer of Aquabion and he’s not given me a clear answer

He won't give a clear answer he's always vague

And that's why I said they only last around 6-7 years

Yeah, theres definitely smoke and mirrors somewhere.
7 years is the manufacturers spec I believe.
As with all of these things, I’d want one in my house to test myself

Permanent ventilation, air changes, and warmth are the only way to avoid mould I always fit a in line extract fan or a through the wall unit with a built in humidity stat. Kop
