Ratings & Reviews for Brita Elite Pitcher 6-Months Replacement Filter

Terrible

I bought 2 of these filters and after just about 2 weeks they almost completely stop water from running through. At first they are great, but they end up filtering even slower than the regular white filters. I am very disappointed and upset about this, since these filters are much more expensive than the others. I thought maybe one was defective, but I started using the second one about a week ago and it is already barely running through anymore. The first one now takes about 3 hours to run thro...

I bought these filters, my problem they filter too fast , water does not stay in the reservoir at all. The lights work, they nearly last for six weeks. Seems to reduce the contaminants like chlorine that I can test with smell.

works

Removes chlorine taste

Effectively removes chlorine taste and other contamination and leaves my water very good tasting. 😋

Great tasting

I have I guess an older model, like maybe 10 years old I have stomach problems when I drink water, I think it's from growing up with well water. I can taste the minerals and sometimes it doesn't agree with my stomach but the Brita seems to help my stomach issues I enjoyed it so much I also bought a soft bottle than a hard bottle Thank You

Not good at all

The first two order were great! Each were still working fine after 6 months. Ordered 4 more and each has been TERRIBLE!!! These 4 filters have basically stopped filtering after 2-4 weeks. They slow to a trickle for about a week then barely anything drips out after that. Contacted Brita who took all the info including bar codes and manufacturing date but that was it not even a sorry for wasting your money. So either Brita knows they are defective or don't care or both. And the water is not hard. ...

Disappointing

We began using this filter 24 days ago in an effort to increase the quality of our water given the recent lawsuit against the company. We fill our pitcher regularly throughout the day. At first the filter was running through quickly, now it is so slow--a couple of drips every now and then. It takes forever to fill the pitcher now, hours. I doubt our filter will last the month. 6 months seems like an impossibility. Given the price and what it was advertised as, I would not purchase this filter ag...

Tastes great, doesn't last

Water tastes best of any pitcher system I've had. But, the elite filter lasts a month or two--nowhere near the 6 months claim. Within about a month, water filtered through quite slowly. When I called Brita, agent just kept repeating it was either air pockets or too much "sediment" in my water. I don't think so. Other filters--including the old standard Brita filters--have lasted plenty longer. Still, the water tastes excellent.

Stops Filtering

After a short usage, the filter stops filtering and needs to be constantly knocked around to get the air bubbles out. There is a design flaw with this filter and has a horrible user experience.

It's easy to use and keep it full so you got water

Got the picture, and can really tell the difference in taste. Just don't know if l need the regular filter or the one that you change twice a year??

Too expensive.

Too expensive. Go for other cheaper brands of water filtration systems. Tired of Brita scams

Product is the best we have used. others do NOT the longivity than Brita "EXCELLENT"

Filter replacement

I have a Brita elite and the filter last one month. I have been pricing them and the replacements are expensive!!! I would recommend it but the price of filters????

Ridiculously SLOW

I am so disappointed. This filter takes 40 minutes to fill! (2 rounds of tap water to get a full picture @ 20 minutes a shot) It's utterly ridiculous and buyers should be warned by Brita so they can be aware BEFORE they purchase this expensive product. I use filtered water to make coffee and set up my machine at night. I have to remember to start earlier just to fill the coffee maker reservoir and then get the picture filled to go back in the fridge. Unbelievable!

Do not buy this...does not fit with all putchers

Shame on Brita. They claim this filter works with all pitchers except Streams. I own an X not a stream. The filter clearly does not fit. Shameless cash grab by a big corporation. I intend on filing a consumer complaint.

Light won't change.

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.

It works!

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.
