I bought this Brita water pitcher after reviewing a lot of filtration devices. This was one cost-effective product that was said to remove copper and other minerals. I have well water that's tested regularly for micro-organisms and its clean that way, but not for minerals. Basically my water was undrinkable, always had a scum on it. I knew there was copper and iron in it because my tub would turn blue. I don't of course use this filter for filling my bath tub. Now after almost one month daily use, my water is good to drink, to make coffee and no scum. I am glad I bought extra filters so when this runs out, a new one is ready.
I would definitely recommend this.

I have been using my Brita Aqualux Water Pitcher for over a month now, and just love it!! Although our water is Marin County is just fine, the taste of this filtered water is tops! The pitcher is easy to use and to refill. I don't need to use ice, as the water is always cold. I bake a lot of sour dough bread, so the filtered water is perfect for this. I no longer find myself buying water in plastic bottles, which is much better for the environment, as plastic bottles are often re-cycled overseas, which doesn't make a lot of sense. I highly recommend everyone owning a Brita pitcher. I am hooked, and my family really likes the taste of the water, as well.

I love my new brita aqualux water pitcher. I was concerned about all the plastic I used when buying bottled water, but I disliked the smell and taste of the water from my faucet. So, I bought the Brita water pitcher.

I love the design. It fits easily into my refrigerator because it is very slim.

I had read in reviews of people having problems with the top coming off. I have never had the top fall off when I was pouring water. Not a problem at all!

And, the taste of the water is great. There is no yucky smell! Even my kids will drink it because now I always have cold water on hand.

I have been using Brita water pitchers for a few years and I am a big fan of it. The taste of the water is very nice. It eliminates the need to buy dozens of bottled water every month and it helps the environment because it reduces the waste made from the plastic bottles. The previous pitcher that I have been using was poorly designed, but this pitcher is very much improved from the older ones. It's silm shape fits better in the fridge and the lid doesn't fall off when you pour, which happend quite frequently with the older model. The smaller lid is my favorite feature of this pitcher which makes filling it so easy. The electric timer is a TIMER, not a SENSOR. You reset the timer when you change the filter and the timer will count down 2 months, which is the usual lifespan of the filter.

Over all, a very nice water filtering pitcher. If you're sick of the plastic water bottles I would definitely recomend this product. Plus helps keep the environment clean!

I didn't think it would be able to take the terrible taste out of Florida tap water (which tastes like drinking from a pool) but it did. The result is water that tastes extremely like some of the big brand names from the supermarket.

The design is a bit funky but it was worth every penny. Try it! I'm very excited about all the money I'll be saving on bottled water.
