Boroux Foundation Black Replacement Water Filter - Replacement For Berkey BB9-2 and Gravity-Fed Water Filter Systems

I did lots of research on these filters before purchasing. I actually researched on their website but bought from Amazon so that they would come faster. Priming them was a lot easier than anticipated. I've had them for a few months and they've been great, they get daily use and hold up well. We drink exclusively from our Alexapure filter and they fit perfectly. Got our filter from FB Marketplace so it was cheaper but definitely wanted to splurge on QUALITY filters. Read more

We have used our Berkey for years and I love the asthetic and the long-lasting filters. I understand that recent events with the EPA have questioned the efficacy of those filters. I tried to learn more about this and honestly just got really confused. But I want a gravity powered (no electricity needed) option to make our water healthier, and I don’t want to buy a new filter every 1-4 months. Enter Boroux!! Who answered my prayers and needs! I am so glad that these filters are compatible with the system I already have, and that they are fully honest and transparent in their claims with the facts/proof to back it up. I am so thankful that this affordable and reliable solution is on the market. Seriously, God bless you guys! Having a system like this can last my family years and I feel great about drinking this water. Simple and delicious, as water should be! 🤩 Read more

We have had our Berkey water filter system for about 2 years. We had been very satisfied with the water quality and taste. It was time to replace the black filters, we ordered these under the assumption that they would work the same. Unfortunately that was not the case, the water seems to flow through the filters rather quickly compared to the original filters. The water doesn’t taste much different than the tap water from our faucet, leading me to believe there is something wrong with the filters. Perhaps the filters we received are defective and that is why the water flows too quickly through them, not allowing the filter to properly filter the water?? Read more

Needed to replace my black Berkey filters in my Big Berkey. Can't get the Berkey filters anymore, so tried these. The flow is just like new, and the water tastes just like it did when my Berkey filters were new. Priming was easy and everything you need to prime and test is in the box (red dye and blue primer). I checked out the online list of what is filtered out and it's quite extensive. They don't claim to filter bacteria but from what I read online, that's what got Berkey into trouble with the EPA. I like the idea of replacing once per year since some contaminants are reduced to a greater extent than others. Plus it's priced attractively compared to Berkey. Seems reasonable for something as important as my drinking water. Good job Boroux, five stars! Read more

I updated my rating when Customer service came to my rescue with replacing a defective part quickly. I was impressed. Poor customer service for defect part replacement. Still waiting for response from 12 days ago. Installation was not easy. The water taste is exceptionally great. Thanks. Read more

Pricey but verified, certified quality from trusted source . Will last in my berky for 2+years or 6000 gal. Depending on tap water quality. This is 2nd set of Boroux filters since unable to buy the original black berky filters that originally came with unit so that tells you how long i've owned this system. NOT FOR USE WITH SURFACE WATER Read more

They work just as good as the Berkey filters. I tried for months to get the Berkey filters but they were not available. Read more

So happy to find this. Seems to be the real Berkey filter. Love my Berkey, Read more
