Insightful Reviews

We've curated some of the most helpful comments and reviews from people all over the world. Read what they had to say:

“I had an old Brita and wanted to update it. I don't know how old my unit was and felt I should get a BPA free unit. The filter does not fit? The filter needs to be oriented a specific way or the water will flow in without filtering. My filter fit perfectly. You also need to run cold water through the filter (according to the instructions) before you put it into use. You need to wash the pitcher before using it. I could not get the fill insert out of the clear plastic base until I ran some soapy water through all of it and the insert slipped out nicely. The water does not empty out from the fill area to the bottom container? Not in my case. Took about 30 seconds. What I did notice was, the fill area only holds enough water to fill half the bottom container. So, I filled the top a second time and all the water filled the bottom perfectly. In summary, this pitcher looks nice enough for the table and is smaller in the refrigerator.” — Bill

“I bought this to replace my old Brita that cracked after three years. I like that it doesn’t take up much room in the refrigerator like most standard sized models. This unit is good for one or two people, but if you have a family I would recommend upsizing. Also, this is a real deal Brita. It arrived in a Brita shipping box and was packaged accordingly.” — Robert

“I like this filter system because it doesn't remove fluoride, but does remove larger contaminants. The pitcher itself is a great size for my refrigerator, and holds exactly the amount of water I want to drink daily. I wish I didn't have to remove the whole cover to add water. That's the only negative i see. So far, the LED indicator has been useful in determining when I need to replace the filter.” — Gordon
