Much better than
faucet-mount... November 30, 2003
Reviewer: Steven

My wife and I have immensely
enjoyed the wonderful water we get from our Pur filtration pitcher,
which uses the same filters as this dispenser.
It's very convenient -- just pour water into the top, and it
will, albeit slowly, drip through the filter. Over time, as the
filter clogs, it will get slower, so the key is to add more water
every time you pour more out -- that way, it's filtering while you
are drinking and you aren't waiting.
It's actually much more convenient than the faucet-mount filters,
which inevitably leak and get painfully slow and force you to
wait...
Pur is better than Brita, by the way, if you get the Ultimate
filters, which filter out cryptosporidium and giardia in addition to
chemicals and gunk. Brita doesn't do that; it's an important feature
if you have iffy water systems (Mexico, Russia) or a weak immune
system...

Great Dispenser November

Reviewer: Bruce Shiney from Calabasas, CA

We used to lug home the 2-1/2 gallon containers
from the store - what a hassle. This unit looks great, fits nicely
in the refrig and holds a decent amount of water.

Great water filtration
November 08, 2003
Reviewer: A guest from Los Angeles,

I Previously owned a PUR pitcher filter. It was great but
it didn't hold enough so I bought the larger model. Much beter.
Holds twice as much and takes very little room in the fridge. The
filtration is the best. Much better than the BRITA which I compared.
The chlorine content in my local water is very high and has a very
strong odor when I fill the container. There is absolutely no
chlorine smell after the water is filtered so I imagine the
effectiveness is just as good as removing other contaminents as
well. It's also so much cheaper than buying bottled water whcih
sometimes tasted funny. (Sparkletts)

Nice Pitcher October 23,

Reviewer: titililly from Berkeley, CA
It
holds a lot of water and I don't have to keep filling it.
I do
love the fact that you don't have to take the hold pitcher out to
serve the water since it has the dispenser.
The only bad thing is
that when you add water it takes a while to drip down and you have
to wait a long time to fill the hold thing.Other than that it is
great.
