Tools and Hardware Reviews of Brita 35530 Ultramax DispenserCustomer Review: Clarification on the Brita Ultramax 35530 Summary: 4 Stars
Although it is hard to draw out the last bit of water, I think this design is intentional because you are supposed to keep the bottom of the filter hydrated, so the filter does not dry out. I store mine on the counter, and have not observed any dripping. I am overall happy with my new Brita system and am glad to be buying less plastic bottles. It tastes better than tap water but not as good as spring water, of course. But it is so nice to readily have filtered water available.
Customer Review: Clean water - finally!! Summary: 5 Stars
I don't need to put a few drops of bleach into my dishpan where I live. You can smell the chlorine as the water comes from the tap. It's not only disgusting, it's undrinkable! My Brita unit has given both me and the dog the ability to have pure, clean, non-smelly water to drink!
Customer Review: College Dorm Room Necessity Summary: 5 Stars
Living in a college dorm room, this item is a necessity to make sure the faucet water isn't pumping out harmful chemicals. I love my Brita.
Electronic sensor thing is kind of a hoax. I don't even bother using it, but the filter is great regardless.
Customer Review: DANGEROUS FILTER - Green Algae like buildup every 10 days Summary: 1 Stars
This BRITA model is potentially DANGEROUS TO HEALTH. Green Algae like substance builds up every 10 days or so despite thorough cleaning.
Customer Review: Definitely worth the $$$ Summary: 5 Stars
My stepdaughter, my husband and I love our Brita UltraMax Smart Dispenser. It is simple to get a cold and tasty glass of water. My only warning is that if it is hard for someone to lift a gallon of water or do not have the fridge space then it is a bad choice. The weight of one gallon of water is about 9 pounds so with the filter system I presume it is about 11 pounds in all to life and put into a refrigerator. (about 5 kilograms) This can be hard for those who cannot lift for medical reasons. The good news is that there are two ways to fill the tank. One Way is to use the smaller lid which is in the top cover of the tank. This can be done by pitcher or a large glass that was filled in the sink. The second way is to take the entire dispenser out of the fridge and either remove the cover. We do this both ways in my family depending on who decides to fill the dispenser. The dispenser is about the size of a 12 pack of beer or a medium sized turkey.
The parts come apart easily to wash with regular dish soap and water in the kitchen sink. I recommend doing this everytime the filter is replaced.
