Summary: 4 Stars
There's no doubt about it -- you need water because the human body is up to 70% water by weight. Most people love water, and the Brita pitcher makes good water better.
I bought my original, round Brita pitcher because I was on a quest for the best cup of coffee, and if you want GREAT coffee, water that's clean, cold and fresh is just plain essential. The Brita filters have been great from that day to this, and the pitcher delivers good tasting water that's more economical than bottled water. If you have a coffeemaker that is designed with a built-in water filter you could leave that point of use filter out of the maker and save your money if you use the Brita pitcher. I even take my pitcher along on camping trips.
Well now...this model is my third Brita and the things I still like most about it are the space saving flat sides which take up less space in the fridge than the original rounded model and the convenience of the flip top lid where you fill the pitcher. This has a capacity of two quarts which is only enough for a ten cup coffee maker.
The so-called "Smart" timer doesn't monitor the condition of the filter; rather it's a timer with a nonreplaceable battery that approximates the time between filter changes. The user manual says the battery will last about five years.
The contoured handle helps assure a good grip, and if you are in the habit of storing your pitcher in the fridge, it works best if you adjust the shelf on which you set the pitcher a little above waist high.
Emptying the pitcher before refilling is nothing to worry about as the filter will not dry out just because you pour out all the water. Just don't let the pitcher sit for awhile with the water level below the bottom of the filter when it's installed.
There are always fine carbon particles in the bottom of the pitcher. They come out of the filter with use. Personally, I don't like that feature, but I've never been fearful of those little things because the human body is also about 23% carbon. Best of a healthy life to you!
