I bought a Brita filter because I herd so many horror stories about tap water, apparently they put many chemicals in it and apparently they even use it to control us. Regardless of what I herd I... more

    Advantages Advantages cheap to buy, gives fresh, crisp water cheaper, and more effectively than us buying bottled water

    Disadvantages Disadvantages have to keep buying new cartridges, bulky look

    I had started to realise I was spending quite a lot of money buying bottled water. We drink a lot of diluted beverages at home, Ribena, Robinsons and the occasional Vimto and I have bought a 880ml Sistema bottle to start taking drinks to work in and I found I was buying big bottles of water far too often. I used boil water in our kettle (a Morphy Richards, Brita filter kettle) but we have had it for years and it has too much limescale so it is in need of replacing. Alongside this my dad pointed out that apparently you aren't meant to re-use a plastic bottle more than twice so I figured me ... more

    Advantages Advantages lovely clear filtered water

    Disadvantages Disadvantages none?

    When we were getting married back in June a friend asked me what we would like for a present and I confessed that for some time I had secretly desired a water filter. I have always drunk tap water, in the belief that it is good for me, but a little while before there had been a burst water main near our house. Our water supply wasn't cut off, but for several days afterwards the water coming out of the taps was noticeably cloudy and "scummy" and it made me wonder exactly what I was consuming. I couldn't bring myself to drink tap water for some time. ARE YOU GETTING ENOUGH? Water makes up more ... more

    Advantages Advantages Makes tap water taste great, removes impurities

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Initial outlay and too big to fit into most fridges

    I go through phases and at the moment I'm fed up with tea and coffee, carbonated drinks leave me bloated, and we all know the side effects of drinking too much fruit juice, so that leaves water. Where I live, our tap water is not the greatest. It has a distinct chlorinated smell that makes me retch and every now and again, even with tea and coffee it leaves a tang which results in it being poured straight down the sink. Bottled water on the whole is either expensive, or even if you buy the value ranges, is probably little more than tap water anyway. It's been many a year since I've used a ... more

    Advantages Advantages Long lasting, chap and easy to run.

    Disadvantages Disadvantages None for me.

    I have had a Brita Marella water filter jug (in the rather sexy red colour) for over two years now, I purchased it after my husband complained to me that the tap water tasted and smelt very strongly of chlorine. I went on a couple of review sites and shopped around for the best price I could find, in the end I got a very good deal from Argos, that was the filter jug and six replacement cartridges for only £22, I am unsure as to whether you would be able to get it at this price now. The jug fits neatly into my refrigerator door, which is brilliant as I am always low on space. The jug stands 24 ... more

    Advantages Advantages clean tasting water, better tasting cups of tea

    Disadvantages Disadvantages None for me

    A few years ago my mum started to complain about our water tasting a bit funny. We all laughed it off but she went off to the shops and bought a Brita filter jug to filter the water before drinking it. None of the rest of us have sophisticated enough taste buds to detect any problems with the tap water but as soon as we’d tried the filtered water we couldn’t believe how clean it tasted! Our entire family became Brita filter converts and when I moved into my own flat last year, one of the first items on my list of things to buy was a Brita filter jug. I had some Amazon vouchers and spotted the ... more
