Insightful Reviews

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

“This filters the water as you pour it out of the pitcher rather than as you fill up the pitcher, so you can fill it to the top very quickly and easily and always have cold water in the fridge ready to go into a bottle or glass. It does still have to filter the water, so you're moving the waiting step to when you pour it into a glass or water bottle. It does take less time than the old style pitcher, and most importantly you aren't stuck over the sink waiting for the process to finish. Even though this costs more than the other type of pitchers it's much more affordable than the type that attaches to the sink. The replacement filters for those are painfully expensive, and personally I think the water from this style of filter tastes better. This does have a light on the lid to indicate when the filter needs replacing, which I think is a helpful feature. One thing I've found is that when there's not much water left in the pitcher it filters much more slowly, so it's helpful to refill it before it's empty to save the frustration. It also took me a couple minutes to figure out the instructions for how to place the filter, which turned out to be very, very easy when done correctly, so if you're struggling to remove the filter cover you're most likely doing it wrong.” — Sarah

“This flow rate gets progressively slower as your pitcher empties and slows down to significantly once the pitcher is half empty and the water level looses contact with the filter - Once you reach the last quarter of the pitcher , the flow slows down to almost a trickle making it a test of your patience and forcing you to refill the pitcher again. This makes a 10 cup pitcher more like a '7 cup actually usable' to me THE GOOD - The pitcher is good looking and looks great on any table - Fits your fridge door easily and can filter iced water - Tight seal , the pitcher does not leak no matter how high you tilt it - Better than drinking tap water alone (That is if the water in your area has a strong chlorine odor/taste) THE NOT SO GOOD - The value proposition just doesn't cut it for me , When compared to Brita's own regular pitcher filters , it removes 80% lesser contaminants for 30% higher the cost. And I'm not even talking about faucet filters or other brands here. - On top of that the water flow rate did not turn out to be the redeeming quality I sought it to be as it gets progressively slower as you empty the pitcher making a 10 cup pitcher more like a 7 Cup one FINAL THOUGHTS In the end, though the Brita filter not bad by any means, but I feel there are too many compromises and that you can do so much better for both in terms of cost and quality of filtered water. So there you have it . At one end, With the Stream Pitcher you have "fast" filtered water which is more expensive and has fewer contaminants removed and at the other end you have Cheaper, Healthier filtered water for less with a regular Pitcher with the only caveat that you have to wait ~5 mins for the water to filter. And that was an easy decision for me ...” — Farhan

“Pro: filter great and it good for on the go people Con:slow pour when water is low It best to get your faucet water tested before buying any filter so you know what stuff is in your water so you can choose the right filter. For me my water has chlorine , this filter did a great job. If you need little more filtering then go with the regular modal.” — Nick
