Brita Large Water Filter Pitcher for Tap and Drinking Water with 1 Elite Filter, Reduces 99% Of Lead, Lasts 6 Months, 10-Cup Capacity, BPA Free, White

Really like this Brita water pitcher. It fills quicker than my old Brita. This model does not have an indicator light but, to tell the truth, the old Brita's indicator light was not very accurate. Do not miss it. Wrote down when I received the pitcher with the new filter and will order new filters in plenty of time. Delivery was pretty fast, too.

The main reason I have a Brita pitcher in my apartment is because the water pipes in the building are over 40 years old. There is a bad taste to the water, which no one will take care of, so I use the Brita pitcher to help me drink the water which is better.

I've been in college for a couple years, and I've relied on pitchers to keep great tasting water handy. I've also been disappointed by these pitchers with cracks, leaks, and bad lids. If you own the Brita Grand, you know exactly what I'm talking about. Lids can fall when you pour and honestly, I've had to tape things back together. But this one is different. This pitcher is the Brita Grand - with a solid lid. Okay, that's not official. But from my experience, this is the most solid pitcher. I've dropped it and (while I don't recommend you do so) it's been a trooper. I've had zero issues with the filters, and there are never any leaks. The lid stays put. And best of all, this pitcher holds A LOT of clean, great-tasting water. This pitcher has been a true godsend in my life. And it fits practically anywhere in the fridge. This completely sealed my trust in Brita pitchers. I highly recommend you try this pitcher before you give up.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I use this for college and it is the perfect size and so easy to use! It makes the pressure of making sure the water is great go away!

I picked up a regular brita pitcher when I had first entered college. The large pitcher fit in our practically empty fridge perfectly and every time I went in the fridge to get something it was always there staring me down, reminding me to have one more glass of water. I would definitely recommend this product for a few reasons: it saves you money on water bottles, it helps to keep you from drinking ,most of the chemicals in your drinking water, and it will always remind you to stay hydrated. Keep drinking!

I really do stand by brita's products since moving from FL. Down there the water is a lot better usually because its from our natural aquafiers. But Brita comes close in taste and cleaning. Brita has always been easy to use. I switched to the pitchers because i ended up having terrible luck getting the water-spout ones to work (threads never match up) and its much easier to toss in the fridge for cold water. I use filtered water for all my cooking and drinking purposes.

We have enjoyed this pitcher; use it every day. I wish I would have held off on one with the electronic filter indicator. We use it to fill the coffee pot or a glass of water. Especially if it is cold, it makes tap water tolerable to drink. I also have the HUGE counter pitcher, which I use when cooking. Stay hydrated!

I have a Brita pitcher in my kitchen, which we love. Except that the design of the lid is horrible and it keeps falling off when I pour water out. Is there any redisgn of the pitchers taht makes it work any better?

We had the old style pitcher. We broke it so had to replace it. All we could get is the current pitcher. The pitcher is OK except for the top, which is incompetent. It does not stay on. The electronic thing is a farce. We remove the top to add water. We do not pour it through the large hole. The electronic thing does not know what to do with that. But that is trivial. I would not expect it to work well anyway. What is terrible about this pitcher is that the top keeps on falling off when we pour. Didn't anyone supervise the design? Did anyone test it? What was wrong with the old design other than it wasn't chic? It worked quite nicely and it didn't have that idiotic red light blinking at me every time I pour. The old one was good. Why did you change it? You know the saying: if it ain't broke, don't fix it.

I don't know why a basic jug needs to have so many crannies and nooks. The newer design lends itself to overflowing water into the handle. The overflow leaks into the refrigerator. The curves of the lid make it less efficient in filling- creating the need to stop and wait for the filter to continue filling. The upper compartment should be more concerned with utility and less with design. IMHO
