Brita Tahoe Pitcher with Elite Filter

I love everything about this water pitcher. Water pours out very fast, water runs through the filter much faster, and I love the push button release to open the top to add water! I'm very happy! I should have bought this pitcher sooner.

Arrived broken, I had to return it to the store. I couldn't do an even exchange. I had to return and rebuy from the store. They didn't have the color I wanted and I lost the online Britta discount. I do like the product, just not the delivery and return process.

The light stop working before I even get to replace the filter once. It says that you should replace the filter after 115 but the green light gets activated every time in pour a glass of water or a 16oz water bottle. How does it know how much water I’ve poured. very tricky. I didn’t like the product.

I got this today and it's cracked, I've bought 4 pitchers or fridge ones that all have come cracked. I'm really at the end of my rope.

I really enjoy the size and the quality of the better filter. - don’t drop it though because I’ve chipped it 😂

I BOUGHT IT A YEAR AGO, AND THE CLEAR PITCHER CRACKS VERY FAST. IT HAS BEEN HOLDING THE WATER BO=UT NOW LEAKS. IT'S A PITY BECAUSE WE LIKE IT AND THE COLOUR AQUA IS BEAUTIFUL, BUT I WISH THEY WOULD REPLACE THE BOTTOM PART SO WE CAN RECYCLE THE TOP. IT'S THE SECOND TIME THE BODY CRACKS IN 2 DIFFERENT MODELS.

re: Tahoe with Elite Filter Installation went fine and everything works. Drains fast - about 5 minutes to completely drain the top filled to max line. Straight drinking water tastes very good but not quite as good for making coffee as my distilled water with .26g baking soda + .64g magnesium /gal mixture. In a blind test my wife actually preferred the Brita water to the distilled mixture as straight drinking water compared to the flat taste of the distilled water mixture. Apparently coffee doesn't work well with too many minerals especially my very hard water here in Southern Coastal California. A few suggestions for Brita. Since a lot of people seem to have difficulty firmly seating the filter I would suggest a locking bayonette type filter mechanism with visual locking marks. This way ikne could both feel and see the filter lock in place. Secondly, please offer a glass pitcher in order to avoid any possible PFAS bleed into the filtered water. I don't know of this is an issue or not but I would sure like to see a test. Speaking of PFAS, I was amazed to see that the Elite filter is certified for PFAS reduction under NSF/ANSI standard 53 according to Brita's performance data sheet. If this is really true I am amazed that Brita doesn't market this aspect of the filter. If I am reading the certification correctly, if the incoming water contains 1.5ppb PFAS the Brita Elite filter will remove 98.1% of it. I presume this means that if the incoming water contains a greater concentration of PFAS than 1.5ppb then the 98% removal won't be enough to meet the standard. Do have that right Brita?

Arrived cracked. When I went to start return/exchange, I receive a message that it needs to be returned to the store. I can’t ship it back. Doing a return after Thanksgiving will not be great. 🤬

I bought a water contaminant tester, and contaminants remained high even after filter

Ever since I take it home, it’s leaking. I cannot from where the water is coming from. The shelf in the fridge is always wet

After getting the replacement filter at the 6months, the sensor stopped working. Tried the troubleshooting but nothing. Not that the sensor is filtering the water but come on. So now I just use the pitcher to fill my Berkey filter.

This pitcher was a gift and I liked, later it cracked and the filters are high, that's what I dislike

Plastic parts are thin and brittle. Clear packaging tape can cause breakage if you don’t see it. Lid should have a label showing “getting started” instructions. Where is documentation on changing the battery for the indicator? Is it a sealed part?

Caught one a month or so ago and totally love it I don't trust the water without it

Brita filters are great, this is our second. The illuminated filter indicator is neat but only lasts about 8 months. No way to replace the battery so now its useless. Neat gimmick, but since it doesn't affect the usefulness of the pitcher its not that big a deal.

I bought this today 11/18/24 and the handle will not stay on. Not happy. It's pricey to not be perfect. Bought it because I was in need of a water filter so I could use it instead of bottled water. Did not read reviews because I was in the store andBrita had a good name in the past.

Filter lights always green, worst rated water pitcher on every comparison. Might as well drink tap.

This is my 2nd Brita pitcher. I love my Brita, however the light has never worked. It didnt work on my first one either. Whats up Brita?

We purchased our Brita Pitcher on 9/21/24 and I tasted the difference with the first glass. We purchased to save on water bottles it just the two of us. Had not read any reviews prior to purchase only read different filters before choosing the Brita.

Had for only a few months and the filter system warning light stopped working.
