Amazon.com Review:
For crisp, clean drinking water in small family or single-person households, Brita offers their Slim Pitcher with Filter. The filter reduces impurities and harmful substances from tap water and holds approximately 40 liquid ounces. The slim pitcher fits neatly into many refrigerator doors, enabling users to maximize shelf space.

Certified by the National Sanitation Foundation International, Brita water filters contain a mesh screen to catch sediment and particles as tap water flows through into the pitcher's basin. Brita pitchers employ an ion exchange resin with activated carbon granules to draw mercury, zinc, copper and cadmium from tap water, trapping these harmful elements inside the filter. Brita filters eradicate up to 98 percent of the lead found in tap water while significantly reducing other impurities and dangerous bacteria including cryptosporidium, giardia, and benzene. Additionally, the odor and flavor of chlorine are removed from drinking water. Brita filters should be replaced every 40 gallons or after two months of use. Replacement filters can be purchased separately. Wash the Slim Pitcher by hand in lukewarm water with a mild detergent. Brita offers a limited 90-day warranty on pitchers in the event of manufacturer defects. The pitcher weighs two pounds upon shipping. --Jessica Reuling

Rating: - Great when you FOLLOW INSTRUCTIONS
Mine just came yesterday and took about 20 minutes to get it ready. It's very important to Follow the Instructions provided. People have complained about black particles in their water, I believe that is because there filters were not in all the way.

Make sure to follow the instructions for installing the filter perfectly because it is very important. They ask you to soak it in cold water for 15 minutes; I put it in a plastic cup from a fast food place with cold water for 15 minutes ... Read More

We discontinued our bottled water service at my office, and I was looking for a substitute.Since I have a mini fridge in my office, this was a perfect fit as it fits right in the door.The water tastes great too!
Rating: - Worth the price

Rating: - avoid this one
The water filter falls out easily. Be extra careful or buy something else.
This should bring a little disappointed.
Rating: - the perfect size for college kids
Though this pitcher would seem extraordinarily small for anyone putting it in a full-size fridge, it seems just about right for my tiny, standard issue microfridge door. You do have to fill it up constantly, especially if more than one person uses it, but it's worth it not to be drinking the city tap water. One caveat--buying new filters costs practically as much as the pitcher itself. But still cheaper than paying for bottles!
