Brita Water Pitcher Replacement Filter Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)We always kept two boxes of these on hand as replacements when we used our Brita filter pitcher (we went to an in-line because we drink so much filtered water --we'd go through 40 gallons in no time, but that is a LOT of water.) There are three "gotcha's" on these filters to be aware of:
1. Do not let the filter dry out. When the pitcher is empty, you should refill the reservoir right away. When the pitcher is full or partly full, the bottom of the filter is in the water and keeping moist.
2. The filter needs to be soaked and flushed exactly according to directions. Some of the charcoal packing comes off in the flushing process, and if you don't take care of it, you will have specks in the water. This is no big problem, just something to be aware of.
3. Never put overly warm or hot water through the filter.
If you follow the directions, you will have, as we did, gallons of water that cost a lot less and taste as good or better than the water you buy in plastic containers in the supermarket.

Brita Riviera Water Pitcher Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)When I lived in CA we had very hard water. I purchased a fairly expensive two-stage filtration system that mounted under the sink thinking this would be the greatest tasting water ever. I was wrong. The water still had a metallic taste. When I tried a Brita Pitcher I was extremely impressed. They are the only company that uses silver oxide pellets in the filter, which act as a water softener and work well with hard CA water. I've since moved to GA where the water is much softer, but these filters make such a noticable difference it is incredible. If you change the filter every 5 weeks or so you will be very happy with the results. I've been using the same pitcher for about 7 years now and it is still in great shape.

The Brita Filter's activated carbon and ion exchange resin work together to filter ordinary tap water and turn it into healthier, great tasting drinking water. The Riviera pitcher is NSF and Water Quality Association certified to reduce chlorine (taste and odor), copper, sediment, 98% lead, benzene, and more. A feature that sets the Riviera filtration pitcher apart from others is its SMART technology, a built-in electronic indicator automatically notifying users when to change the filter. For optimum performance, change the filter every 2 months or 40 gallons. Filter replacement is essential for the product to perform as represented. The filter change indicator contains a non-replaceable sealed battery designed to last 5 years, depending on usage. After 5 years the pitcher is still functional, but the electronic filter change indicator will eventually stop working. Designed with a 64-ounce capacity, this pitcher makes it easy to get the eight daily recommended 8-ounce glasses of water. Its streamlined body allows the pitcher to fit in most refrigerator side doors. Included in the box are the pitcher, a flip-top, easy-pour lid, and 1 filter. This model is available in a choice of colors to better accessorize with any kitchen decor.

Brita 42378 Deluxe Water Pitcher Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)First off, I have to say Brita's filters make tap water taste really great. We had this with us in Germany, where the water is really disgusting right from the tap. That water was completely undrinkable but the Brita pitcher made liters and liters of fresh-tasting water that rivaled the expensive bottled French stuff. We felt it was well worth the real estate it took up in our typically shoebox sized Euro-fridge. And the pitcher is easy on the eyes, with nice, sleek styling.
There are a few "gotcha's" with this pitcher. For one thing, the small cover on the spout is fragile. If you drop the lid (easy to do if wet) it will break. This is minor as the pitcher will work fine without it. The end-of-filter life is a timer, not a sensor of filter quality. If you go through gallons of water, the filter will expire before the indicator tells you. You can tell this by the bad taste. You have to watch that the filter does not dry out, so you should not leave the pitcher dry when you empty it out. This takes some discipline from the kids (and dare I say, adults) to fill it up immediately.
The Brita does filter relatively quickly. However, if you need more than 3/4 of a gallon at a time of water, or you go through a lot of water (we do), you may want a sink filter or an in-line filter instead. But for cold, delicious water at a reasonable cost, you can't beat this pitcher. We ended up buying a sink filter instead and retired our pitcher, but it really did well by us for quite a while.
