Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Brita 35503 Pitcher Replacement Water Filter Cartridges, 3-Pack
Customer Review: not necessary
Summary: 3 Stars
According to the instructions, these filters should be replaced after 2 months or 40 gallons. But I've been using the same filter for nearly 5 years, and have filtered probably more than a thousand gallons of water through it, without any problems.
These replacement filters are not necessary at all. Sure, they work great. So it could be argued that they deserve a 5 star rating. The problem is, they work so well that there is rarely ever any good reason to replace them. If your filter is lost or stolen, then I would recommend getting a replacement filter. But if your filter is still doing the job, there is no need to replace it. You wouldn't replace a trusty old dog with a replacement dog, would you? Why replace a trusty water filter with another water filter? It makes no sense.
After nearly five years of reliability, I'll admit that my water is now slightly browner once it's been filtered. But this is to be expected after nearly five years of daily use. The water still tastes great!
note: I usually add a few drops of freshly squeezed lemon juice to each batch of water before it runs through the filter. This could explain the longevity of the filter. I don't know.
Customer Review: these filters last much longer than brita wants you to think
Summary: 5 Stars
i love brita pitchers. been a big fan for years. it makes tap water taste, quite literally, scrumptious. but brita would have you believe you need to replace the filter every few weeks! in my own experiences, though, 1 filter can last 8-9 months. so if you have one of the brita pitchers with the bars that count down to indicate when you need to replace the filter.. simply ignore it. replace the filter when you begin to notice your water tasting funky. like i said, i replace my filter every 8-9 months. simple as that. ciao!Customer Review: water filtering

Customer Review: yummy water!
Summary: 4 Stars
Only four stars, because the great taste diminishes fast after about 50 cups.
