I have been using regular Brita filters without issue for many, many years. I am always looking to decrease the plastic I throw away, and was excited by the longer lasting filter option. However, it has stopped working after a month! Very disappointing! Tried shaking it (which I have never had to do with the original filters), with no improvement. Not a happy consumer!
Pros: convenient, Great for the Environment, Great Taste

I've read a crazy amount of really bad reviews about it takings literal hours to filter through, filtering way too fast or not fitting right. I suppose I either got lucky or there are plenty of good opinions that just weren't officially reviewed here. I think it's probably the latter because mine works great. I'm very picky with water filters, I used ZeroWater and always tested my water for a long time but it's too expensive so I tried this. For the money you can't beat it I think. It's probably not the absolute best out there but if you don't want to spend a ton of money but want better than a standard brita filter(which is not very effective honestly), this is a great choice.
Makes water taste great but only works normally for about 2 weeks then starts slowing down tremendously daily. It might be due to the tap water having lots of sediments in it, but it is still frustrating since this product isn't cheap.
I have used the regular filters for some time but decided to try the elite filter. I received my filters today and attempted to install. The directions suggest pushing down firmly but the filter floats out of the housing. I noticed other customer with similar problems. I have not had this problem with the regular filters. How do I fix this problem?

I bought this pitcher thinking it filters everything, I should have checked. It does not filter Fluoride, which is very bad for you. Look at the clinical trial that Harvard University has just come out about Fluoride and your brain. Very disappointed..
I had hoped it would be great. The first few weeks the water tasted great. Then, it began to taste bad. I use the water in a stainless steel tea pot. The water leaves MUCH calcium buildup in the pitcher. I can use Zero water filters for months with no build up in my tea pot. I also dont like that the pitcher lid has an opening. I prefer it not. I keep a plastic cover over it to keep any dust, etc. out of the water. I'll be switching back to Zero water filters and pitchers.
Pros: Great for the Environment, Great Taste

I got the brita elite filter with jug a little over a month ago. Firstly, water came through the filter too quickly for it to have been thoroughly filtered. I made sure the filter was well placed and there was no leak through the sides but still the water was filtered out in less than 5 minutes. Secondly, the filter lasted only a month (not the 6 months advertised) before the jug sensor turned red.
