One bad leaky filter
At first sight it looks like a great filter but then the problems start. first they left a hole on the top of the filling container so when you fill it to the top what I would expect people to do water start colleting in the handle and then leaking out. Second the top is not secure enough it fall of when pooring.

Great water, flawed pitcher
I have to agree with most of the other reviews. The water is clear & tastes right but the pitcher is a disaster. Once we had a bad filter that left the charcoal residue, but if we soak the filter in cold water for 10 mins then run cold water through it for a few seconds before installing it, the water is excellent. However...the pitcher could not be more flawed. The lid, despite all attempts refuses to stay seated on the pitcher. When pouring, the lid usually falls off or pops loose causing massive leakage & annoyance. The most ridiculous design feature though is at the top of the handle, inside the water reservoir...there's a hole where the handle attaches to the pitcher. SO, if the pitcher is A) over-filled or B) Not over-filled, but slightly jostled (such as the movement induced by returning the recently filled pitcher to the refrigerator) the water will go through the hole, down the handle and leak everywhere. There's a funky plastic piece inside the handle which keeps it from leaking all at once. That way you don't necessarily notice the handle is full of water immediately and your refrigerator is full of spilled water the next time you open it. My husband is not very conscious of this fact so I keep an empty cereal bowl in the refrigerator on the shelf below the water pitcher to catch all of the water that leaks down the handle.

Brits space saver pitcher not up to standard
This pitcher is unbalanced because the designer felt it must fit into a refrigerator door These dimensions makes it unwieldy when full and especially if the top reservoir is full too.
The lid does not fit into the reservoir properly and falls out when the pitcher is tilted to pour water. Since there is a problem with fit, the gap between the top and the handle is emphasized. Somehow water seeps into the hollow handle only to drip out slowly. Once in the refrigerator, if unnoticed, there will be water on any objects standing beneath it.
Brita water pitchers offer many benefits. It is a shame this one's design shortcomings overshadow its good properties. This model should be returned to the drawing boards

This is a great product
I bought this in March-April of this year while I was in Los Angeles to save me from lugging water bottles upstairs and back down to take them to the recycling center. When I got back on the road, it was easy to use in motel rooms. I used it to fill my water bottle to drink from during the day while it was packed back into its box in the trunk of my car. Over time, I learned that it leaks when I pour ONLY because I filled it past the stated 48 oz. capacity. Many of the other complaints I've read about here, from charcoal residue to use of hot water, would have been resolved, IMO, if they had only read and followed the instructions in the User's Guide that also contains a Performance Data Sheet specifying the contaminents, reduction percentages, and other info. I have a Pur faucet filter for my kitchen sink with the 3-stage filter that adds minerals back for better taste, but this Brita pitcher produces much better tasting water and fits neatly on my refrigerator door shelf now that I'm back home. I'm greatly satisfied with this pitcher and recommend it highly both for home use and for road trips.
