| We've used these type of filters for years. We refill water bottles to help save the planet. The 10-pack is an economical way to buy them. |

| The product is good, the price is also ok BUT........ when you add the shipping, its no better than retail. I've order them twice on Amazon but won't again unless Amazon lowers its price to be competitive after shipping with retail. |

| this filters filter my water but not as good as the original I got in my pitcher. Seems like it uses a different material inside to make the job. My water taste still a little bad after filtering... I will try another kind next time and will not buy this one again. I wish theire was a way to know if it was an imitation of the original filters before buy this. Do not waster your money on this ones... |

Since this was the only item in my order, Amazon shipped it in one of those padded envelopes. When I got it, there was a 1-1/2" tear on the center of the envelope and the box was deformed.
The filters themselves are okay. The black carbon bits still leak out sometimes but not enough to be bothersome. I don't know how this compares to PUR, but works well with me and I trust this brand. |

"Found it as expected with just some additional time in the flushing process for the carbon particles" | 2008-08-31 |

| I have been using the Brita filters for about 3 years now and have always found them working as expected. The flushing away process of the carbon particles is an exception to this.THis is the 1st time I bought the filters online. No complaints with shiping or packaging. But I noticed that removing the carbon particles (not completely though .. I don;t think anyone has been able to do that so far) before starting to use the filter took a little more time with this buy than I had to do with the store-purchased piece. Overall great satisfaction!! |

| We have really nasty tap water so it's great to simply fill up the Brita jar and have clean, great-tasting water whenever I want! It's best when it's a little cold, too. Thank you! |

"No problem with these filters; better price than in other stores" | 2008-08-09 |

| Of course if Amazon goes up on the price or takes away the free shipping it wouldn't be worth buying them here, just get them in your local store. I was a little worried that if I paid less for the filters that they would some how be faulty or defective but that wasn't the case. I've used one of the three and it works just as well as the others I have purchased in Walmart or Target. Change it at least every two months or more if you go through pitchers of water. My Brita pitcher has an indicator on it that helps me know when to change it but after awhile you can taste the difference and know that it's time to change filters. The filters I bought through Amazon seem to be lasting just as long as the others did. No complaints. :-) |

"You can use it up to 40 gallons - if you have the normal pitcher, that's 106 times" | 2008-08-06 |

Think about it. If you're using a filter for 106 times, you're getting your money's worth. Or you can just use it until your tastebuds decide the water is gross again. Remember, it's a water filter, not a purifier. It says so on the package. All it's supposed to do is remove the things that aren't tasting good, and copper too.
There are other brands that you can use first to filter the water that take care of all the other things, like asbestos and stuff. I use one of those, and then to take care of lead, I end with the Brita pitcher. The one that takes care of many more things than Brita does is called ClearH20, and the only thing that it doesn't do is copper. Brita does.
Using both of them makes the water taste terrific. I'd never use Brita or the ClearH20 alone....both of them together create awesome flavor....but either one by itself, the water tastes poor.

| I've purchased these filters at local grocery stores for awhile, and finally decided that I could probably get a lower price from Amazon.com, which was indeed the case. I have to give the product 4-stars, because I still think that they are WAY overpriced for what they are. Let's face it, it's a piece of plastic filled with granulated charcoal. How expensive could that be to produce? Not very. Nonetheless, I have still kept using them over all these years. Though I know that regular tap water should be fine to drink, I still feel better using the filter. |
