BRITA Flow XXL fridge water filter tank for reduction of chlorine, limescale and impurities, 8.2 L -Blue

We already had a jug water filter. We decided to try this tap version. It's great. Just about fitted on our top shelf. The tap flows at a decent rate. Because over 5lts, it will save us constantly filling our jug. Great product

Water in my area has degenerated a lot over the last few years and the taste is awful, a bad chemical taste. In addition if a little puddle of "clean" tap water is left for any time in the washing up bowl it ends up with a brown residue ring around it not a good sign. Bought the Brita to go in the fridge as I do like a cold glass of water but had to do a little shelf rearranging to accommodate it. Easy enough. This product has totally eliminated the chemical taste and no doubt other particles from the water and has brought a pleasure to drinking a nice refreshing glass of cold water once again.

Week after week I struggled as I tried to jam all of the empty bottles of water into my recycling bin, knowing that only roughly 10% of our plastic is recycled in the UK this was just bothering me more and more. I hate tap water so knew that wouldn't be a good solution, I also drink a lot of water so the jugs Brita offer would just be forever getting refilled, then finally I found this. I was sceptical at first having drank bottled water my whole life and been so fussy over it but then I read the reviews and finally made the decision to buy one.First things first, it does taste different to bottled water but after just one glass I was already used to the taste of it. I even compared it to the taste of tap water which I immediately spat out. It really does change the flavour and in absolutely no time you will be used to the taste in fact Ive come to find it so refreshing, I now find it a little weird when I taste bottled water again.Changing the filter is very easy and it does last a descent amount of time. I do hate the amount of water you have to waste when breaking In the filter but I suppose there isn't much they can do about it. The little tap is so easy to use and it definitely encourages the none water drinkers to drink a little more water. Cleaning the jug is very easy and though the filters may seem expensive they last you a long time and far reduce the cost if you were buying bottled water all the time.So to sum up:- Great way of reducing plastic waste (my recycling bin has never gotten full since)- Saves all those annoying trips to the shops and carrying heavy cases of water- Tastes just as good as bottled water- The little tap makes it so easy to quickly grab a drink of water.- As long as you have a stock of filters, you'll never be out of water.Overall, I absolutely love this thing. For years I have been a total water snob and never thought I could replace my bottles but I finally have, so you can too! You wont regret it.Side note - you will be washing a lot more glasses than youre used to..

This beast is huge which is what I wanted. I don't use it in a fridge, it's sat on my bedside table. I think after a big shop it would take up too much room in there but I didn't want it for that anyway.The colour of a cup after a cup of tea made from this water highlights that the filter works really well. The lime that the tanin stain sticks to is almost totally gone and it does taste a lot nicer (and I'm a bit of a heathen to be honest and am not that fussy)The only downside is the shape of the filter itself. When you pour water into it when it's empty it's hard not to hit the filter in the middle and the shape of the filter is like a ski slope that sprays the pouring water back up in all directions including over the sides.The tap handle also snaps back with startling ferocity when you turn off the flow. I think that might be a feature as if you don't let it snap back into place (ie just move it back holding it) then it tends to drip a little with water left in the spout past the closing mechanism. The snapping jolt clears that when it closes.While you can carry this back and forth to a tap it is easier to just fill a bottle of water and refill this where you keep it. It's a bit cumbersome to carry about full.To summarise, it's big and it works. I just hope it doesn't eat filters too quickly as they are pricey.

This was on offer for £40.99 and though still expensive enough compared to jug & filter offers i had to consider the fact that we are filling the jug numerous times each day as we both draw from it for gym etc. The only reason I decided to purchase this was to avail of 5.2 litres of filtered water as opposed to 1 or 2 litres at at time. The unit in total holds 8.2 litres so 3 litres can fit in the top for filter process. It’s very easy to slide open the slot and pour in the water - honestly tho it’s a pleasure to pour cool filtered water from the tap and despite me placing a spill cloth there hasn’t been a need. I was concerned that it might take up too much fridge space but it hasn’t and if needs be for winter months the tank can be moved to a place in the kitchen. Considering the cost of bottled water this is a great option. I’m watching Amazon for filter deals 😜 💦 I’m very happy with this product 🙌 💕

I bought this due to my husband developing kidney stones. We found out our holiday caravan site used major chemicals to purify the spring water they use on site. Not blaming them but the stones may have been irritated. Bought this to purify and filter the water and touch wood he hasn't had any more attacks after the four he suffered each time we visited the holiday home. Water tastes a lot better and no doubt our appliances won't need as much descaling. A well worth it buy

Product was really good
