4 Stars Better Than Tap Water
We had quite a “fancy” water purifier for many years and since we couldn’t decide what to purchase to replace it, we ordered a Brita for the transition. It’s been a good purchase since it makes the water taste good, but it seems the filter goes out way before the two month suggested change. It begins to taste “off” after about 5-6 weeks. There’s two of us using it, me and my husband, and we do like to drink water … but I would think it should last longer.
It’s easy to clean and easy to fill. Nice design for its purpose.
3 Stars NOT SURE
I am new to filtered water, we’ve been buying bottled for years. What bothers me about this Brita pitcher is that the filter doesn’t “lock” in place and I can see a gap at the top between the filter and the sides of the filter chamber. I’m sure unfiltered water just goes through there to the pitcher without going through the charcoal. I’m thinking of returning it.
5 Stars Great product
This Brita Pitcher works just as my old one did, however it is much bigger which, for me, is great. Because of its size it might be a bit heavy for some to handle. I like the fact it is bigger because I use a lot of filtered water and I don’t have to keep filling it as often as I did the smaller one.
5 Stars I love this pitcher.
I have been using it for a year and it is still the same quality water comming out.
Superb.
4 Stars Top Brita Pitcher but also Consider the Brita 35530 Ultramax Dispenser
Overall this is one of the best pitchers Brita offers. Its defining characteristic is its extra large capacity (reducing the number of times you have to refill it)
PROS:
It is Brita’s largest pitcher (with a 10 cup capacity)
It is very quick and easy to refill (you don’t have to remove the entire lid like on the older models)
CONS:
The pitcher can get VERY HEAVY when full because water is heavy (this might be a problem for children, elderly, etc.)
The reviews are true (you have to wait for water to sink to bottom before you use it or else the lid falls out and you get water all over the kitchen counter)
BOTTOM LINE: It is my favorite Brita pitcher because of its extra large capacity, but I would consider Brita 35530 Ultramax Dispenser in conjunction with this or as an alternative since 10 cups of water can get heavy and Brita 35530 Ultramax Dispenser is easier to use.
