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.

Poorly Made
I went through the trouble of creating this account just because I was so displeased with the current quality of the pitchers. Years ago I bought a pitcher and it was great: had a great seal so I could filter water and pour the filtered water.
I bought a pitcher a month ago and the quality is very poor. There is no seal to speak of since the parts don't fit tightly, the spout cover gets stuck, the reservoir cover comes loose all the time.
And the kicker is I returned two other Brita pitchers that fell apart once out of the box, and gave up the fight with one that would suffice until my remaining filters are used up and I will purchase another brand.

Everything but the lid
I have used Brita filters pitchers/ containers for years. I bought the Pacifica less then a year ago. I like the blue color design, d the change filter light. The lid design is poor. It is always falling off. From when I am filling it up under the faucet to pouring water out of it. I have to hold on to it or it dislodges itself. The worse time is when is dislodges it self & falls off while I'm filling up my pet's water dish. It ends up falling on the floor or in the dish itself. This is the first time that I have been disappointed by a Brita product. Is there an replacement lid or anything else you can do to help me become friends with my Brita Pitcher? Thank You.

Dissapointed!!
I have used Brita products before and they have been great so far. I thought of upgrading the pitcher we have had for a year now. Purchased this product and regret the decision of purchase!
Here are a the problems:
1. Put in a new filter and the indicator to let us know on the health of the filter does not work at all. Followed the instructions of holding the button for 5 seconds a ton of times and no use.
2. The filter is just a week old and I already see the black particles in the filtered water.
3. The oval water holders keeps falling off when I try to pour water out of pitcher. I would have not mentioned this if it had not happened frequently (almost once every 5 uses!)
If this product would have been on a returnable period would have definitely returned it! Not what is expected out of Brita!

Not good!
I've owned a variety of Brita pitchers over the past 10 years. I purchased this green Pacifica pitcher yesterday since my old pitcher (the Grand) cracked. This Pacifica I thought would be a good replacement since the Grand wasn't available at the Wal-Mart I was shopping at. I am SO disappointed in the Pacifica. The filter is not snug in place and unfiltered water drips through into the pitcher. The "bowl" design of the top part of the pitcher where the water is to be filtered is constantly slipping out and dumping unfiltered water into the pitcher. The top pops off when I pour a glass of water.
Nothing about this pitcher has been easy and I am so disappointed I spent money on this. I'm out the +$30 and don't have the means to spend another +$35 to re-buy the Grand.
Brita, you really struck out on this model.

Spout problems
Recently replaced the pitcher I had for years, was showing some wear. This model has something wrong with the shape of the pour spout. If you try to pour slowly it dribbles off the end and usually onto the table. To pour fast enough to avoid this, the stream is too big to pour into a smaller opening like on a water bottle. The happy medium requires some practice. I'd suggest going with a different model pitcher. We'll need to replace this one. What a waste...

Lousy Cover- Beware!
This would have been an excellent product, except for the cover. I had to purchase this model to replace my older one. How I wish they had left the older model on the market. The cover CONSTANTLY falls off whenever you try to pour more than a small amount of water out. You then have a flood all over your countertop and/or floor! I would not recommend this model to anyone. No amount of holding down the cover with your thumb helps.

Falls Apart
This was the 3rd pitcher we have used over the years. We got this one 2 weeks ago and there is a problem. The lid frequently falls off if you do not hold it down when pouring. When the lid falls off, the colored part that holds the filter then falls down into the pitcher, It also falls down when there is water in the color part and you try to pour. Very frustrating. It seems like the parts should snap together or something so parts don't get so discombobulated.

Lid falls off constantly
Great value to have clean great tasting water. The lid falls off constantly. Why go to the trouble of designing a pitcher if your not going to pay attention to detail. This is a major major design flaw.
Very unhappy!!!
