lcdtmd: Much better than the previous design. Doesn't leak when you pour.

Natty: I ordered this for my mom because her old one was old LOL she loves it and she find it a bit heavy but she really likes it. She says the flavour of the water is pretty close to her other one that she had.

blueskys: I really do like this pitcher. It uses the longest filters which means I don't have to remember to buy replacements nearly as often. The taste of the water is good, though that's more a function of the longlast filter than of the pitcher itself. It holds up to 10 cups of water -- not too much nor not enough. It is easy to fill, and the design prevents water that may have collected around the filter intake from being poured into your fresh glass. It is easy to refill, too, and is much quicker than my first Brita. I wondered if the rounded design of the pitcher would fit my refrigerator shelves, but it does.

Charlene Hodgson: I bought the Brita because the water on the door of my fridge stopped working and not worth fixing. I am extremely happy with the Brita. It has made a huge difference in my Keurig coffee maker. The wrong filter was included with my Brita but Amazon rectified the situation immediately.

Carolyn: Very happy with it. I like that I can purchase either type of filter for it.

Sue: I use a "two-pitcher" approach for filtering my WELL water.
The Brita pitcher works well as expected and is cleverly designed not to let water still waiting in the fill reservoir to pour out with the already filtered water. I use the Brita Longlast Water Filter and am pleased with it. It lasts about 3 weeks for me in my Well Water situation. Therefore the electronic filter indicator designed to let you know when to replace the filter is useless with my Well Water. I'm guessing city-supplied water would work more closely to specifications advertised by Brita.
My Well Water doesn't have problematic bacteria or toxins (that I'm aware of) but the area around my Well contains much limestone, causing an increase in carbonate and bicarbonate particles.
This alkaline water tastes bad, and over time some of my past family members suffered from kidney stones until changing to bottled water.
I then pour the Brita-filtered water into a different pitcher with a much more elaborate (and expensive) filter to remove all remaining particles. The second pitcher filter lasts much longer as a result of 'pre-filtering' with the Brita pitcher.
I know the "two-pitcher" sounds burdensome,...

Manuel: La jarra me ha funcionado bien por mas de 6 meses, pero desarrolló moho en una junta horizontal que se puede ver en la jarra... dificil de eliminar porque no se puede desarmar donde está esa "junta"...

Jeanne W.: The township water is heavy with chlorine. Makes my eyes smart to get in the shower. We have gold fish and tropical fish and even though there are tablets to eliminate the chlorine - I figure, if I won't drink it, I don't except my fish to like it either. Was purchasing six gallons a week to change several gallons in the fish tanks to keep ammonia levels down. We also have small dogs, and again, I would not offer this tap water to them, if I would not drink it myself. Therefore, was also buying bottled water for us and the dogs. Around l2 bottles a day.

Now with the Corona Virus issue we have all been dealing with, water supply at the local supermarket limits amounts we may purchase, and many times there was no water at all on the shelves. Decided to order a Brita pitcher. We keep it in the refrigerator, but bring it out during the day to warm up to room temperature.

I like the design and color of the pitcher. Nice that we can now use our tap water and have it used for more than dishes, laundry and bathroom. We can all enjoy it whether fish, dog or person. ::)

Yves: I think the old model was called "Monterrey"? I got my First in lime green then in red.

So i obviously like this pitcher filter. (I've had them for about 6 years & the last was in dire need of replacement). They've slightly changed the design & this is more "sleek" and also a more "mature" color palette. I really like that.

Other than that - not much has changed in those years. I can assure you the back has always dripped if you overfill. I can also assure you that the indicator light is an oddly useless feature. I can also assure you this is a beautiful, functional, eco friendly, & worthwhile investment vs. Bottled water. And last assurance - if you find the right generic brita replacement filter you will pay much, much, much less for your filters and be just as happy, but keep track of how much youre filtering because they're not magic.

I highly recommend this & am happy with my new grown up model.
