Editorial Review:

Elegant, modern 3-quart pitcher Space-efficient shape fits nicelyin refrigerator Soft grip, contoured handle Flip-top lid for easy refilling Uses a BRITA pitcher filter Reduces chlorine taste and odor Removes sediment and other harmful substances. Includes pitcher and one filter. Tested and certified by NSF International

Eliminate 99% of the lead and reduce chlorine, mercury, and sediment in drinking water with Brita's Magnum II Filtration Pitcher. Larger than the standard Brita pitcher, it holds up to 80 ounces of clean, filtered water. Just pop the filter cylinder in the white plastic water reservoir, fill with cold tap water, and in just minutes the pitcher's brimming with healthy, great tasting water. Each filter--one comes with the pitcher and you can order others--lasts for 40 gallons of water. As an added feature, a filter replacement indicator relays when it's time for a new one. The sleek, clear plastic pitcher sports an easy-grip handle, while the white plastic lid features two openings: one for filling the pitcher and one for pouring. --Marianne Painter

DO NOT BUY! This new Brita is flimsy, leaky and poorly made!:

I have had an original Brita pitcher for years and only bought a new one when the pour-spput-flap broke. EVERYONE I know that bought this new Brita has had problems with this very pour-spout-flap sticking and causing "waterfall" spills. The flip top that you open to fill the reservoir is cheaply made and falls off often. If the reservoir has any water in it, and you pour a glass, the pitcher overflows because the parts do not fit tightly together.
Get a Culligan Faucet purifier and fill up a pitcher!

Good Pitcher:

This is a pretty good pitcher. I love having cold filtered water on hand and this does a great job at making my tap water taste better. I purchased this about two years ago and it's held up fine. I'm a little concerned how long the plastic will continue to hold up, but so far so good!

This is for you, Brita:

This pitcher is so poorly designed I get angry every time I use it.
The lid is loose and falls off causing a spill.
The small flap at the pouring end gets stuck, then opens, causing another spill.
Water in the top section will pour out at the same time as the filtered water.
The water doesn't really taste good at all.
I still use this pitcher because I have no alternative.
Don't you have anyone testing your products?
Shame on you for making such a shoddy product

You Will Taste The Difference:

If you have never had filtered water, then you do not know what you are missing. When you use this Brita you will see and taste the difference in your tea, coffee or whatever else you use it in. I use Brita filtered water in my Espresso Machine and do not have to decalcify as often. I also use filtered water in all my cooking.
The slim design of this Brita makes it fit in the refrigerator much better. And the timer comes in handy to remind me to change the filter. Some have said that it leaks when... more info
