I wanted to cut back on buying bottled water and decided on a pitcher filter. I looked at several filters before deciding on the Brita 6 Cup Water Filter Pitcher. This pitcher is supposed to filter out impurities and contaminants found in tap water. I really like the size of the pitcher it’s easy to handle and pour. The handle is comfortable and the lid fits snug. It fits in the refrigerator or countertop and doesn’t take up a lot of space. The pitcher is made from BPA-free. It comes with a standard filter that was easy to install. The manual suggests changing filter every 2 months or 40 gallons. Its easy to clean by hand or in the dishwasher. I like the reset with flashing green/red light so you don’t forget to change the filter. The water does taste a lot better out of the filter than the tap. We refill the pitcher two or three times per day. Only 40 gallons per filter so order extra filters. Overall, the quality is good, it’s easy to use and clean. I would highly recommend the Brita water filter pitcher. Read more
I had a larger Brita pitcher years ago and didn't like it. I needed one and after a long time, decided to give Brita another chance. This newer generation is really nice. I couldn't get the lid to stay on the old one and it would fall off as I was pouring water out (deal breaker for me and why I tossed the old one). The lid on this model fits well and is secure in place with an easy to read/understand indicator that tells me when the filter needs replaced. The water has a pleasant flavor. Kind of a misnomer because there isn't much flavor, which is what I was looking for. My tap water often has a heavy chlorine content and at certain times of the year, there is a strange algae-like quality to it. Hence my need. The filtered water from this pitcher is clean with no residue or sediment. It's easy to use and easy to clean. I recommend reading the care instructions before you use it. I was able to get the insert out to wash it rather easily and putting the filter in was pretty self-explanatory. There is a "right way" to put it in and it sort of "clicks" into place. I've only been using it 2 or 3 weeks, but so far this one is MUCH better than previous versions of it. Read more
This Brita pitcher is perfect for small spaces like apartments or dorms. It fits easily in the fridge and holds just the right amount for one or two people. The filter improves the taste of tap water noticeably, and it’s easy to refill and clean. I also love that it’s BPA-free and comes with one filter to get started. A simple, effective way to stay hydrated with cleaner water — great value and very user-friendly! Read more
There's just 2 of us here, and we use the pitcher almost exclusively for making coffee and tea. So I added up our usage years ago, and I figured I need to change the filter every 5 months. And that seems to work. The water is still good tasting, although the pitcher gets dirty and it seems like a good time to wash it out and make the change. Now I've had this new one 3 months and the indicator says I need to change the filter. Accurate? Or do they just want to sell filters? Beyond that, a pretty nice pitcher. And it does a nice job of taking chlorine and presumably other bad stuff out of the water. Coffee tastes a lot better without chlorine. Read more

I’m not an expert in water filters but I do know that I take water taste seriously. There are many big name brand water bottle companies that have gross tasting water! This makes my faucet water taste good - not great. I want to contribute to a better future for our children so I invested in my Takeya water bottle (which puts Hydro-you-know to shame). I included it for size comparison. This water pitcher is small, perfect for a medium mini fridge or a countertop. If you’re on an extreme hydration quest such as myself you may find refilling it tedious; luckily it filters very quickly. It’s simple and sleek. Getting the unit apart is difficult but after googling - it can be done! Personal con: The pour spout is open all of the time. I wish it had a little flip top that doesn’t lock shut (that’d take away ease of pouring) but at least I wouldn’t have to check it every time. (Not a huge deal - just saying). Summary: Quick filtering, simple to use, small footprint, cleanable, not for extreme water drinkers (have to refill a lot). Wish it had a flip top cover. I am happy with this purchase. Good value.
