Brita 42629 Slim Pitcher
Slim design / Fits into your refrigerator door / Reduces chlorine taste / Includes pitcher and one filter
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

Brita 42629 Slim Pitcher Reviews
Love it so much that I bought one for a friend who has well water. Have used this product for a year and a half.
I bought this pitcher for my wife and loved the fact that it fits in our small refrigerator's door. Great buy. The filters are a bit pricey but by doing a bit of online sleuthing I can usually find great deals on the 3 packs - and they don't run out quickly so that is a plus. I drink water out of the tap but she tells me that it is excellent for fresh-tasting water that is nice and cold.
But in a larger household, its too small to be practical, and it takes too long (as with all of them), but even longer when you're waiting. This is an awkward size, frustratingly slow to fill for just that little bit more (for 6 cup coffee pot). Go with the larger model I ended up giving this to a family member and purchasing the larger size (here on Amazon). The lid is very flimsy. for the refilled filter to filter. Small and compact, perfect if you live alone.
This pitcher stinks. -. Just so's you knowit's a piece of garbage and I'll never trust the Brita brand again. The lid falls off whenever I try to pour out of it, the innards want to fall out which probably makes the lid come off, and the little spout thingy falls off. If I hated it just a tiny bit more, it would be in the garbage even though it isn't two months old and I have four more filters to use. I just wrote this to Brita about my slim pitcher:.
I have model 0803 and to say I hate it would be an understatement. Try another brand. Seems to be a different model than the one on Amazon, but the other reviewers have the same problems I did except no carbon in the bottom in my case. It is as though no one ever actually tried to USE the darn thing before they sent a whole load of them to WalMart.
Two, we bought one specific brand that only came in individual bottles, and I could see we were producing WAY too much waste by buying them. I'm surprised to find that the water does taste pretty good (and I am VERY picky), way better than "naked" tap water though not quite as crisp as purified bottled water. I bought this for two reasons: One, with the economy being what it is these days, I was looking for some ways to save some money and previously we bought a lot of bottled water. The filters last a long tme, and I think this is a great way to help the environment and save a bit of money as well. Bottom line is I can fill the pitcher from the tap without any additional costs for water and I have completely eliminated the massive waste we were generating.
