Does anyone use a Britta pitcher? Is it worth it?

We buy gallons of water but its such a pain filling them.

    I love mine and at my grocery store it was $9.99 so I think it was worth it.

    yes - much better than drinking the well water here and i cant even imagine wasting that much money (and plastic) buying bottled water....it was only like 15 bucks i think and the fitler cartridges can be expensive but still worth it!

    We use ours all the time. The only complaint I have about iut is that the water is not always as cold as I like it as I am having to fill it so often when I am drinking all my water every day lol

    My parents have a large one that holds a few gallons at least. It has a spout on the bottom to get the water out. I have a pitcher and I love it. Better than bottles I think.

    I've had one in the past, I couldn't tell any difference over plain tap water personally. Tap water does the job just fine for me!

    I had to use one in college because our water was bad at school. Buy a couple if you drink a lot and want it cold all the time...it has to be better than refilling jugs all the time, that is a pain. And...in the long run (well, probably even just a month's time) cheaper than buying bottled water.

    I found the solution to that problem. I bought a thin refrigerator jug that I fill with the filtered water.
    I also filter the water and then pour it into a tabletop dispenser with spigot (like you use for SunTea)

    My Brita gets such a work-out, maybe I should log *that* as "exercise?" hahaha
