Travel Berkey Gravity-Fed Water Filter System with 2 Black Berkey Elements Plus Deluxe 7" Stainless Steel Water View Spigot

The water tastes very good, better than a Pur filter. I don’t think I could get any cleaner water. The only drawback I can find is I can’t tell how much water is in there. I have the spigot with the little blue ball, but, I don’t know how much water is in the top, so I overfilled it and the water leaked out the top of bottom half. I guess it doesn’t have an auto stop when the bottom is full. I spent a lot on this, and I really like the water, but, if I had to do it again, I’d get a glass one. I’ll check with the company to see if there is anything I can do to keep that from happening again.

So far so good. I know this product is a pricy, but sometimes you get what you pay for. It is very well made. I would recommend reading the instructions very carefully. Also, there is a YouTube video that also helps! So far we are very happy with the quality of the water. Once set up, it’s so much easier than a Brita water filter pitcher. We also ordered extra filters, because we drink a lot of water. We decided to set it up next to our sink, because we have a small kitchen. We soon purchased the platform, which makes it so much easier to fill a glass. I would highly recommend this product.

The quality of the steel and accessories is so much better than the cheaper options. And the filters actually produce clean water. I'm glad I finally invested in the Berkey, because no alternatives worked for me. I am concerned about buying replacement filters, but I trust that won't be necessary for some time.To be honest, I was most impressed with the instructions provided in the kit. It was easy to set up the Berkey and it filters water much faster than I expected. (And the red dye test worked - they provided dye for that). The container can be full in an hour or so.I have over-filled it a couple of times despite having the gauge spigot thing. (I don't fault the product for that). I regret not getting a metal stand to put it on for a quick wipe up of water spills. It sits nicely on the cube shelf I have, with the spigot hanging over the edge for easy access to water. But when I have a spill I have to move the whole thing to clean up the little spill. (Keep it mind it's too tall to sit on a kitchen shelf with cabinets. It's 19 inches tall and you refill it from the top. The metal stand will add additional height).

We've used this system for six months now on a daily basis. All we've ran through it has been Bottled Water from the grocery store which is already filtered. The minerals in the bottled water were enough to slow the filtration process so much that I'm now having to replace the two elements inside. They do not last as long as the manufacturer claims. Our Brita system works much better and the water tastes way better! Deeply regret buying this unit as it is large and was expensive for what it does! I am Very disappointed with it's performance and it does not live up to their claims! The stainless steel build is nice though and it is easy to use, it just takes longer and longer for the water to pass through the elements to where now it just drips slowly taking hours for one gallon to make it through!

The attachment to fill the filters doesn’t fit over any of my kitchen faucets. So I had to soak immersed in a pan. It’s beautiful and works like a charm. I’d buy it again. The water is so nice. Great product

I was a little worried by some of the negative reviews, but I have to say this product is far superior than the brita pitcher. The travel size 1.5 gallon is perfect for 2-4 ppl. Got this as a gift for my parents and have been enjoying it for a week now. The water tastes so clean and the stainless keeps it at a cool temp, it reminds me of what perhaps drinking an iceberg would taste like. The taste is so clean and pure it even makes coffees and teas taste better. There is zero rubber taste like a few reviews mentioned (perhaps they assembled it wrong?) speaking of which be very careful screwing in the filters so they don’t strip. The stainless steel water level spout is a must. It does take about an hour to filter, but so far weve been filling it at night before bed and we’ve never run out. Also be careful not to overfill, as it will leak, but it’s easy to see when lower compartment is full simply lift off the top compartment and check the level and you will be able to learn to read your spout leveler quickly. Overall this is a major upgrade from the brita pitcher when it comes to taste and you won’t have to fill it as often and your filtered water doesn’t sit in plastic. Also the filters can last years. Very happy with this purchase should have bought sooner! Product came double packaged and had zero dents or imperfections.

It works good but it leaks! That said, it was a nightmare to put together!

So happy with this water filter from Berkey; however it arrived with a marred surface. Although disappointed since I really loved how beautiful their product looks . I called the company, and their customer service was fantastic. I showed pictures of the damage, and three days later a replacement arrived with a return label. Really love doing business with a company who stands behind their product. Was not sure about the initial high cost,; but the water tastes clean, filters quickly, makes clear ice, and truly is designed to be a focal point. The Berkey spigot is also really sharp looking, allows you to see the water level, and has a good water flow with no plastic. Quite pleased I took the plunge.
