Customer Review: Just follow instructions
Summary: 5 Stars
I was initially apprehensive in purchasing the Brita 42632 Riviera chrome pitcher due to the various criticisms of it. I chose it due to the high rating by Consumer Reports as well as the many stars given by Amazon consumers. After our family of three has used it for several weeks now, I can say we are perfectly happy with it. The water tastes great (just don't use stale ice), the design is streamlined (my 1st choice was white, but chrome looks fine), the ergonomics are good no matter the amount of water inside, it's the right size for us (we go through about a pitcher a day), and there are no spills or leaks whatsoever.
I believe the key is simply to follow the instructions. It took me an hour to get the entire thing going after reading every word, but we have had no problem since. Under "Getting Started," note particularly the last step, where you need to discard the first two pitchers to remove any particulate matter. Just to be sure, I discarded a third (our flowers enjoyed this).
Also, note the tip to fill the pitcher by allowing tap water to run down the side of the reservoir rather than hit and disturb the filter directly. This should help ensure no charcoal bits.
Finally, observe the instruction to wait for the water in the reservoir to drain completely before pouring or filling again (it takes about 2 reservoir-fulls to actually fill the pitcher, and a few minutes wait each time). This way you will not be as likely to overfill, as there's nowhere for the extra water to go but out the little covered spout. It should also eliminate the charcoal flakes from coming out, too.
In conclusion, when all else fails, follow directions!
PS: Apparently the filters for all the different Brita models are the same; they are one standard interchangeable filter, but haven't researched the most economical place to purchase them yet.
