Small 6-Cup Water Filter Pitcher, Includes 1 Filter, Turquoise | WQA and NSF/ANSI Certified, Reduces Chlorine, Copper, Mercury & Cadmium, Lasts 2 Months, Household Essential

Been wanting a water filter pitcher for awhile. I’m so glad I got the Brita. Works so well and easy to use. And the taste is great! And at a great price.

I've had this pitcher for 9 months now & it still works wonderfully! The Brita filter lasted 7-8 months for one person using average 1 & 1/2 a day (I know, I should be drinking more). The color indicator never seemed to turn yellow, but the green seemed to flash slower, then one day it was flashing red - and there was a difference in taste. So maybe be ready with another filter instead of waiting to buy one until you see the yellow. I did buy a knockoff brand filter replacement & there's enough of a difference in taste (& most likely longevity) that I am DEFINITELY staying with the BRITA brand filter from now on. FYI - the Brita filter did need to be 'burped' about 3 times toward the beginning (water was not percolating through, so I just ran my finger across the top of the filter to get it going) - & now that I've had the lower quality knockoff that has not needed burping, I consider that a GOOD quality instead of bad. Also, I'm glad I waited this long to give a review because in the beginning, I was wondering how the plastic was going to hold up & it has! The hard plastic 'felt' like it would be more brittle, so I tried to be careful not to bang it pulling it out of the fridge etc. But it HAS happened enough times & I've inspected it, for me to realize that it's durable! I also noticed that it's AIRTIGHT - not sure if that's the word for it - but it never produced any little mold spots INSIDE the pitcher! When I did see one or two, they formed at the very top edge where tap water droplets strayed while filling it. When I noticed that, I learned from my lesson & made sure to have the pitcher open & ready to be filled directly instead of allowing any stray water droplets to happen. As per instructions, I also don't leave the flip top open while it's percolating. I close it then open again to fill to fill line (the little protrusion) a 2nd time. I've also noticed to be careful not to touch the pour spout on anything since tiny mold spots can occur there. Otherwise, I've left it in the fridge without the need to clean it out (no signs or smells of bacteria inside) all those months. There is ONE thing that I would like for them to change in the design, but it's not bad enough to take off a star. The flip top, although it opens easily, also CLOSES too easily. I flip it with my thumb while holding the handle, but then when I barely move my thumb it hits it closed again. I hate when that happens because then the tap water splashes across the top between the pitcher & filter top or the spout to potentially produce tiny mold spots. I have to constantly remind myself to be careful flipping the top & totally take my hands away & have the tap placed squarely over the open area before turning on the water. There's enough room between faucet & pitcher that I can flip it closed again right away for it to percolate. I LOVE that the percolating process doesn't take too long either! Although it does percolate faster with the knockoff filter - another sign the knockoff doesn't work as well.

Easy to use. Effective. Great system

Last fall, I purchased Brita Metro Water Filter from Amazon to replace my previous pitcher. It's a great value for your money, and it's easy to use to filter tap water for drinking and for everyday needs. The turquoise colored pitcher is very stylish and comes with a filter that's easy to install. There's no specific smell, but the water tastes great. The seal has a smartlight change indicator, which is handy to notify you when you need a new one. Apparently, when the pitcher fell off the counter, it caused some scratch marks on the lids, but it's durable enough. I use it for drinking, cooking, and giving water to my two cats.

This pitcher is the perfect size for one person and fits easily in my refrigerator without taking up too much space. The water tastes much better after filtering, and the chlorine smell is noticeably reduced. It's easy to fill, and the filter lasts a good amount of time. If you don't need a large pitcher, this is a great option for everyday use.

Shattered the old one…this replacement unit uses the same cartridges and we had at least 10 in reserve.

The Brita arrived on time in perfect condition and works perfectly!

Great item for saving money on bottled water. Water taste great.

Much better since they changed the design to feature a flip top lid, Rather than having to pull off the whole top part of the lid to refill.

had it for 2 weeks now and would say it’s done a pretty great job! It’s definitely better than having water bottles thrown out every time.

Es un excelente filtro de agua, aunque aun así hay que tener cuidado si se usa en México.

Me encantó, el agua súper limpia y buena, facil de usar.

Nous sommes contents de la qualite de ce pichet. Nous avons fait le test a l'aveugle, et le gout d'eau n'est pas tres different avec l'eau de robinet. Mais on espere que ca filtre bien quand meme. Il faut penser a changer le filtre tous les 3 mois : on s'est apercus qu'il y avait du moisi qui poussait si on le change pas assez souvent (et en ete, lorsqu'on le laisse en dehors du frigo)
