Amazon.com Review:Eliminate 99% of the lead and reduce chlorine, mercury, and sediment in drinking water with Brita's Magnum II Filtration Pitcher. Larger than the standard Brita pitcher, it holds up to 80 ounces of clean, filtered water. Just pop the filter cylinder in the white plastic water reservoir, fill with cold tap water, and in just minutes the pitcher's brimming with healthy, great tasting water. Each filter--one comes with the pitcher and you can order others--lasts for 40 gallons of water. As an added feature, a filter replacement indicator relays when it's time for a new one. The sleek, clear plastic pitcher sports an easy-grip handle, while the white plastic lid features two openings: one for filling the pitcher and one for pouring.

An improvement over the original
I've used an older version of the Brita filter and pitcher for over 15 years. Although the filter is the same with the new pitcher, I do like the larger capacity. I also like the hinged door on the top, which allows one to refill the reservoir without lifting the entire lid. I would like to see the manufacturer design a better flap over the pour spout, as the hinge on both the old and new pitchers often fail to open or close smoothly. This leads to an uncontrolled stream of water when one attempts to pour, causing spillage. That's my only (minor) reservation about this product.

good
The brita is great. Holds a lot of water and the filter works great. Its a great way not to spend money on bottled water. The down side is the lid. The past brita filters I have owned all had a "filter timer" on the top to remind you that you need to replace the filter. This model apparently doesn't have one. Also, the lid part that you flip up to add the water is pretty flimsy. It comes off just about everytime I try to open it.

Bigger, but tastes like Charcoal
In Columbia SC we have been voted to have the best city water in the nation. I first purchased the small Brita to filter out the Chlorine but dropped it so I replaced with this larger one. At first I was thrilled with the Brita but noticed in the last few months the water tastes like charcoal even after I replaced the filter and ran several pitchers through it. My husband said the same thing with the pitcher he bought for his work in Charleston, 2 hrs away so different city water, same bad taste after going through the Brita pitcher.
I have a bladder condition so the water I consume is very important. I now only drink Deer Park water because it has a Ph of 8 and the bottles are made of less plastic than regular water bottles.
If you still want to try this product, buy the small one first to see if you like the taste or not.
