Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of PUR CR900Z 9-Cup Pitcher
Customer Review: Fantastic Water, beats out my old Brita filter...
Summary: 5 Stars
I'm a college student in New York City, so getting clean water is always something that requires a good deal of effort. Tap water is disgusting here, and although I used a Brita filter for almost two years, I'd never really given a thought to the Pur brand until my old Brita broke.
First and foremost, I have to say... I LOVE the look of this thing. The design adds a definite aesthetic appeal to the pitcher; additionally, I loved how the "filter" pitcher and the "storage" pitcher were not evenly sized, like in most Brita filters. That is, the amount of water being filtered at any one time was much, much smaller than the amount of water that was already filtered. This means that you won't be refilling the pitcher with every use.
Secondly, the water quality. One thing I did not like about the Brita pitchers were the fact that it left a decidedly "bitter" aftertaste in my mouth. With this one, the water simply tastes so _pure_, no pun intended. Although I grew up on well water in Virginia, this honestly is some of the best water I've ever had. I didn't really buy into a lot of the hype that Pur was worse or better than Brita, but having had both side by side, I can honestly say that Pur wins out.
Additionally, the pitcher is made of very sturdy plastic, which means you won't be replacing this thing for a long time (only had it for a month or two, so can't say for sure). Another quirky thing that really irked me about the Brita pitches was the fact that the water filter wasn't really locked into the base, so if you were draining the pitcher, the water filter would constantly pop out. Pur's filters lock in with a twist, so you know they'll never pop out.
If you're deciding on a water pitcher for dorms or home, look no further... this one's capacity makes it a winner in my book!
