The red light on the pitcher does not change to green after many times of filling and discarding the water. The filter is set correctly.
Pros: Health Reasons

I’ve used Brita regular filters for years. Our city water is so awful now that the regular filter wasn’t filtering out the chlorine and chemical taste. This elite filter is letting me enjoy drinking water again. It’s truly a great filter.
Doesn't fit. Water runs through to quick and doesn't filter properly for this reason.

We apologize for the inconvenience caused by our Elite Filter working too fast. We noticed your post and would like to help you with this issue. To ensure that the filter fits correctly, please align the longest indentation on the side of the filter with the groove in the hole of the reservoir. Press down firmly to create a snug fit.

These replacement filters do not even last 6 weeks. Unlike the original filter that came with the pitcher we bought in January (2023), the last one was a complete dud. Bait Nd switch? Bummer.

I’ve been using Brita products for over 20 years! I really enjoy the newer filtration system. My youngest son says he can taste a difference between Brita vs tap water, I certainly can.
Though the product claims that it could last for 6 months, it became extremely slow after 2 months use, EXTREMELY. Much slower than the regular filter at any point of its lifespan. It is shared by merely two people and is only used to filter regular tap water (in California). We are using it with the regular 6-cup capacity Brita pitcher, and it takes more than 20 minutes to filter 1 round. What’s even worse is that this purchase comes with 4 filters. I honestly can’t imagine using this for the next two years ( 4 x 6 months ). This is a terrible buy that I strongly advice everyone to stay away from.

Thanks for giving us a try, and we're sorry that you encountered slowness from our Longlast Filter. Longlast or Elite filters should take at most 10–15 minutes to filter a reservoir of water. The only exception is water that contains high levels of either air or sediment. We'd like to discuss this matter more and ask that you call us at 800-242-7482 and mention reference number 230718-000708. Talk to you soon.
I always used to wash my Britta Jug when I change the filter 6 to 8 weeks; BUT rinsed it daily, thouroghly when I refilled it. I never noticed any smell from the jug during the 6 weeks. With this new light Blue coloured filter, which lasts longer; within a few days I have noticed some sort of an odor as soon as I open the lid. Why? has the quality of palstic chagned? Is it because of the colored filter Vs the white? Or may be becuse I bought them in a store in bulk? The particular lot from which my filters came that lot might be bad??
Love this filter! We've been using it for a couple of years. Our water has a very strong chlorine smell, and this filters it out. Water now smells and tastes great.
Pros: Easy to Drink, Health Reasons, Good Value, Great Taste
