How Often Should I Change My Brita® Filter?
For optimum performance of your Brita® product, it's important to change your Brita® filter on a regular basis. Keep the fresh, great-tasting filtered water flowing by replacing your filter every 40 gallons or approximately every two months. Users with hard water should increase filter changes.
How Do I Prepare And Change The Filter In My Brita® Pitcher?
Our advanced Pitcher Filters no longer require pre-soak.
- Flush filter with cold water for 15 seconds.
- Insert filter into reservoir by lining up groove in filter with notch in reservoir (you’ll notice that one is longer than the other. Press firmly to ensure a tight seal.
- Add cold tap water. Discard your first 3 pitchers of filter water, or use this water for plants. It is normal for carbon dust to appear in your first fillings.
- Replace filter every 40 gallons or two months.
What Is The Shelf Life Of The Brita® Filter?
The shelf life of an unused, packaged filter is indefinite. Filters should be kept in the sealed Brita® bag and stored in a cool, dry place until you’re ready to use them.

Very good but...
I love the style of this Brita pitcher. The style does not take up alot of fridge space. I also like the fact that the spout is covered. The one thing that I don't like is that the electronic filter indicator is good for only five years because that is the estimated battery life and the battery can not be replaced. You would think it would be mentioned on the box somewhere. You find this out after thoroughly reading the manual. I think for the price of this product Brita can put a better filter minder or a least have replacement lids available. After all you purchase the product to keep track of the filter replacement.

I love BRITA but...
I have been using BRITA for a long time and love it. I cannot understand how this digital settings for the filter work. I live alone so I should be able to use this filter for twice the time (4 instead of 2 months, or 80 instead of 40 gallons) since an "average family" would be 4 people and I am only one. So I am taking my risks leaving it for 3 months, maybe 4 and being annoyed by the red blinking light. When in Puerto Rico I had the small plastic calendar that came with the pitcher and was told by a Brita employee that I could leave it for 4 months for a one person household.
I wonder if there are people out there with the same issues.

Poor lid design
I wish I had read the reviews before I spent my $33 purchasing this pitcher today ( 01-05-14 ). All of these last reviews are spot on. After you pop off the lid to install that first filter you are screwed. The lids will. not go back on and are very poorly fitted and designed. I wish I had not tossed out the packaging or I would return it to Target. Even worse I had already thrown my old one away. I should have kept it even though it was old and had a crack in the lid. At least the lid would stay on. I am going to send them an email and hope for a refund. I do still have my receipt, but I am not going to hold my breath. Live and learn is what I say....and read reviews before buying !
VERY unhappy customer in NC.

Poorly Designed Lid- Less than 1 Star Rating
I have a hard time imagining how this lid passed any Product Manager's customer satisfaction test. Did Brita test it with customers? It DOES NOT FIT WELL or clip in place. We have used it for 6 months and It consistently falls off or is knocked off or out of place. The WORST is when you fill it and try to pour water before all the water is filtered. The lid FALLS OFF and water pours all over the counter. FRUSTRATING! DO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT.

Loose tops
We have been using these pitchers for many years so we decided to get a new one. Bad mistake, When they redid the mold to make the colored tops they made the lid lip too shallow. As others have mentioned the lid falls off when you are pouring. Brita sent a replacement pitcher in a different color and that one is just as bad, but on the second one the spout cover sticks closed on occasion spilling water all over the counter. The white ones in the stores seem to have the old lid but we are stuck now. I would suggest buying only the white ones. One other thing the water tastes great but the new filters leak a lot more of the carbon flecks than they used to even just a few years ago but Brita doesn’t think so. My guess is that they went to finer carbon particles for better filtering but didn’t redesign the holes in the filter housing. It’s a pain but it doesn’t affect the water.

"Easy fall off lid"
I do like the capacity of this pitcher against other pitchers, however the fact that the lid falls off so easily...pretty much with every pour, makes me HATE this pitcher. Perhaps I got a poorly constructed one but judging by other reviews, its a common problem. Forget trying to pour before ALL the water has gone down (which you can with most other brands). Big mess. And it's both the whole entire lid, and the small portion that flips. All fall off.

The GRAND is the worst Brita Pitcher ever
I have had several Brita pitchers. I have been a fan of the water and the system. But DON'T buy this model. The top doesn't stay on and many times you will pour a grand amount of water all over the floor or cabinet. The inside well is not stable, either. Part of the handle comes off easily. The small cap comes off when filling.
Don't buy this model You will never buy another Brita pitcher if this is your first Brita experience. Brita should take this one off the market and refund our money.

Cover doesn't attach to pitcher
Unless I'm missing something, the cover to the grand pitcher doesn't attach to the pitcher. When you pour, you have to hold the cover in place; otherwise, it falls off. I've knocked the cover off a number of times when returning the pitcher to the refrigerator door shelf. I've finally resorted to taping it to the pitcher! I also don't like the size of this pitcher. It's too tall for my refrigerator shelves and is so bulky that it doesn't fit well on the door shelves.
