When a product does exactly what you want it to do in the simplest way possible: Brita filters the tap water and cleans it from dirt, sediment, and most importantly, salts. This specific pitcher is for medium use, for small families, it holds about one liter of clean water, which is equivalent to 4 cups/glasses. I got this size to fill my kettle with, which I use to make tea all day. The kettle was filled with salts, now it's clean. The instructions say to change the filter every month, but depending on the water quality, it can last less or more. I change it every three months, so with €20 filters, I get a year's worth. I've been using Brita for almost 40 years and I've never had any problems, I highly recommend it!
NOTE: if you live in an area with very bad water, using the "small" Brita is not cost-effective, as the filter will clog up quickly. There are "larger" filtration systems available that cost a little more but last much longer

The two out of the three that I have purchased have shown this radial crack in the center of the bottom, from where water leaks, without any impact or other cause. However, the leakage stops if you heat the area with a hairdryer!

I had an old BRITA jug before, and it was good. I got the new model, the blue one, which has a larger capacity, and you don't need to remove the entire lid to fill it at the tap.
While it was working with its own filter, everything was fine. It took a long time to filter the water, and to finish the process, so I could use it, but okay.I looked at prices to get a new filter, and they were all very expensive. I got a copy, it didn't work. It didn't flow. I made some adjustments with aluminum foil, in the hole it has at the bottom, and it didn't touch the jug's valve. Sometimes it flows, sometimes it doesn't flow.
I used an unused filter I had from the old BRITA, neither that worked, nor with the adjustments.
Now I am thinking of buying an Original filter once, out of curiosity and just to see if it will work. And then hide the jug in the depths of the cupboard. If not, throw it away.
Okay, they also want to sell their own filters. But, lower the price a bit...... Every month so much money??? To drink water????

Did you find this review helpful?I measured the water before and after for microbial load and hardness with a genuine filter for 1 month, jug by jug, and there is no difference. Where there is a significant difference is in the taste regarding the chlorine. Even in coffee, you can feel this difference in taste.

Did you find this review helpful?Quite a good jug with a very large capacity.
The only downside it has is its construction, which is not as sturdy as needed.. resulting in the jug causing cracks in the bottom in the long run when it is filled.Translated from Greek ·- Value for money

Did you find this review helpful?Very decent jug for its price.
The water will taste bitter for the first 2 days due to the activated carbon filter.

Did you find this review helpful?If the water conductivity is above 200, don't waste your money on it....mine is around 800 and it does nothing...I have passed the same water over 10 times and it only reduced it to 710, wasted money...completely unsuitable for drinking...fortunately, I have the machine and I measure it...but if someone doesn't know about these things...unacceptable, they should inform people that such conductivity can damage your kidneys over time.
Translated from Greek ·Did you find this review helpful?The product is relatively good but a bit bulky, meaning it doesn't fit in our refrigerator door. It filters the water relatively quickly. As for the negatives, I would say that it changes the taste of the water quite a bit, which initially bothered me but after about 1 month of use, I got used to it.
Translated from Greek ·Did you find this review helpful?Top jug, I can no longer drink water from the tap.
Note that for the first 2 days when you change the filter, the water may be slightly bitter due to carbonTranslated from Greek ·Did you find this review helpful?We have been using it for a month. The taste of the water really makes a difference and no salts are formed in the devices we use the filtered water, which I didn't believe when I read it. The only thing is that it doesn't fit in the door of my refrigerator, but it doesn't matter, I fill the bottles. Now I will buy a second one for the summer house.. it's really worth buying.
Translated from Greek ·Did you find this review helpful?Very good water filter jug with a large water capacity, which with a small modification that does not affect the filtering, can also accommodate filters from other brands.
Translated from Greek ·Did you find this review helpful?The quality of the filtered water is excellent! When the monthly filter change is done, I believe it needs more than 3-4 times filtering to avoid having a bitter taste in the water.
Translated from Greek ·Did you find this review helpful?It breaks with the slightest touch. The first one broke and was returned to be replaced with a second one, which developed a crack on the bottom for no reason, no wear and tear. Unacceptable!
Translated from Greek ·Did you find this review helpful?Very decent jug for its price. I only encounter difficulty in putting the lid back on when I need to remove it. It doesn't fasten well, resulting in one instance where I tried to pour water into my glass and it opened, causing all the water from the jug to spill out.
Translated from Greek ·Did you find this review helpful?Very good product. I have been using it for years. It filters the water very well. I had the smaller pitcher, but this one holds a much larger quantity.
Translated from Greek ·Did you find this review helpful?Good value for money. Only issue is that in consecutive filtrations (one after the other) the water smells a little bit like chlorine.
Translated from Greek ·Did you find this review helpful?Very good purchase!!
The water tastes really good. Due to the high amount of minerals on the island, it does a great job!!
I recommend it!!Translated from Greek ·Did you find this review helpful?It does not fit in any refrigerator door unless it is a cupboard. It is only convenient if you want to fill other pitchers
Translated from Greek ·Did you find this review helpful?I used to have the white 2,400 liter jug but as usual the front cap broke, the small one where the water comes out, so I decided to get a bigger one and in a different color because the white one turns yellow over time!!! It's a great jug, it holds more water as it is 3,500 liters and it fits in my refrigerator door because I have a wide compartment. It's great!!
Translated from Greek ·Did you find this review helpful?I highly recommend it, especially if you live in areas where the drinking water is not good. Also, I have saved money on plastic bottles that I had to buy and it is good for the environment. We are two people and we changed the filter once a month.
Translated from Greek ·Did you find this review helpful?3.5 liters capacity, but you almost never fill it more than halfway. It filters about 1.5 liters of water in 1-2 minutes. It fits in the refrigerator. You can comfortably use filters from the same company or cheaper ones, and it's really worth buying for the quality of the water you drink and cook with. (note: my kettle no longer gets limescale) and finally, I am so satisfied that I bought another one as a gift for my parents.
Translated from Greek ·Did you find this review helpful?Excellent solution!!! Relief from limescale in coffee maker and iron, and from carrying bottled water.!!! Velvety water!! I will take it with me on vacation!!!
Translated from Greek ·Did you find this review helpful?After 25 years of use, my old Brita jug broke and I bought this one. I am very satisfied. The taste of the water is excellent, it has a large capacity, so I can easily fill both my espresso machine and it is aesthetically very beautiful. I highly recommend it.
Translated from Greek ·Did you find this review helpful?Excellent jug!! We have been relieved from bottled water and from the salts in the kettle!! Velvety water!! It's worth its money!! Safe and worthy purchase!! We highly recommend it!!
Translated from Greek ·Did you find this review helpful?I have been using Brita pitchers since 2003... it's been many years since I can't stand tap water! Excellent and value for money pitcher! Maybe the slow filling is a disadvantage, but still it doesn't matter!
Translated from Greek ·Did you find this review helpful?Very good pitcher, only problem is its large size!
It fits in the door of large refrigerators but it is also very heavy when full!
I highly recommend it!Translated from Greek ·Did you find this review helpful?The taste at first is bitter but after one week it becomes familiar. It does a good job, especially in areas with a lot of salt. I recommend it.
Translated from Greek ·Did you find this review helpful?I have been using it for 2 years.
Forget about limescale in all your devices (kettles, coffee makers).
I now use filtered water even in my food.
It is very large and convenient, due to the quantity of filtered water.
However, it is difficult to fit in the refrigerator door.
In the first few days, it has a slightly odd taste, but it goes away afterwards.
I buy filters for 5 euros and I saved money.
You don't need to remove the entire lid to fill it with water. It has a specific point that is very convenient.
I am very satisfied.Translated from Greek ·Did you find this review helpful?At the end, I have a link with photos and videos of the jug.
Athens has relatively good water compared to other areas. A measurement I made on tap water with a TDS meter showed 145 ppm (this is the hardness of the water and the content of micro particles, salts, heavy metals, etc.). Keep in mind that the bottled waters I have tested and tested range from 100-120.
The jug produced a result of 60-70 when filtering tap water. It is made of plastic, but even though it is plastic, it is BPA FREE, which means it is as good as a glass one because it does not contain the carcinogenic elements of plastic. So that is clear.
It holds a total of 3.5 liters. However, the filtered water it holds is 2 liters. The water has a slightly stiff and slightly bitter taste. But it is crystal clear. The taste is accustomed within 2-3 days and it is the taste of water without chlorine, dirt, salts, etc.
Especially when you drink from the tap afterwards, it seems that the water has a slight taste and smell, and I repeat, Athens has good water in general.
The jug has 2 parts, the top where the tap water goes and the bottom which is the clean part. It takes about 40 seconds to filter a glass of water (220ml). But that's not a problem because you can fill it and put it in the fridge (if it fits because it's big) and it does the process on its own.
The filters cost about 5-6 euros and need to be changed every month. They should not be kept for longer because there is a chance they will develop mold inside and not filter the water properly. Each filter filters 100 liters of water or 4 weeks. It is changed depending on what comes first between the two.
It has a time indicator to change it on top of the month. Not the volume of water though. But it also changes the taste of coffee from the espresso machine due to the water!
Also, coffee makers and kettles do not catch salts as often...
It is worth it and does the job. It is recommended to put the jug in the fridge to keep the water unchanged. It's just quite big and difficult to fit in small and medium-sized refrigerators.
If it is left unused for a while, it leaves a bitterness in the water, which is normal due to the carbon.
The replacement costs 5-8 euros per month depending on where you buy it...
The jug is relatively good and economical, all Brita jugs are okay. However, the ultimate jug is the ZeroWater. If you search for it, you will see many YouTube videos comparing it to Brita, etc. But the replacement for ZeroWater costs 15+ euros.
It is better to prefer a countertop filter with a simple plastic and an internal matrikx pb1 carbon filter (if you want clean water) with all the certifications for carbon. If you want desalination + clean water, there are filters below and above the counter for 20-30 euros with active carbon and reverse osmosis that are cost-effective and do a better job. With 40 to 50 euros (filter + filter holder), you will have much better water than the jug. And also, the replacement for the system I mentioned (matrikx pb1, one of the cheapest and relatively good filters that cleans the water, but not for salts) costs 15-20 euros and lasts for 1 year or 9,000 (9 thousand liters) of water. And it is also at 0.5 microns. It is much more cost-effective and the water is of higher quality.
Copy and paste the link to see the photos and videos of the jug.
Also, check the reviews of 3-4 filters that I have tested. Much better result and more cost-effective in the long run. Even the expensive Aquametix at 80 euros per year turns out to be cheaper than the jug. Also, the aquametix is the best filter I have ever tried. Read my reviews to have a more accurate opinion.

Translated from Greek ·Did you find this review helpful?We have been using the jug for two years.
The taste of the filtered water is slightly bland, but you quickly get used to it.
The meter that indicates when the filter needs to be changed broke very quickly.
Changing it is a hassle, so we left it as it is and now we change the filter every two months.Translated from Greek ·Did you find this review helpful?Two to three weeks,
it does the job, but it leaves a strange taste that I didn't like.
I wouldn't recommend it, I don't use it anymore,
and don't forget that no matter what, it's made of plastic!!Translated from Greek ·Did you find this review helpful?
