Tools and Hardware Reviews of Brita 42556 Grand Pitcher
Customer Review: Lid wouldn't stay on
Summary: 1 Stars
I saw that others wrote about this problem, but bought it anyway hoping that this wouldn't happen to me.
Well it did, no matter what I did the lid wouldn't fit tightly and would fall off when I poured. I was replacing an older Brita pitcher (that I had dropped and cracked) that I never had this type of problem with. There's no reason to have to deal with this.
I returned it. Bought the "Vintage" model, same capacity, on sale for a great price at [...].
Customer Review: Poor design
Summary: 2 Stars
I've been using this Brita "Grand Pitcher" for about half a year now, and it constantly irritates me. What I find most maddening is how slowly the purified water pours out. They only allowed a very narrow passageway for the filtered water to exit the pitcher, as you can see in the picture. So to empty the pitcher, you have to just stand there for a while wasting time as it oh-so-slowly trickles out. And if you tilt it too much to encourage it to flow faster, the filter falls out.
Just poorly designed.
Customer Review: Fixed brita lid
Summary: 3 Stars
So I got the same problem with the lid not sealing properly. I solved the problem by heating up water in a bowl so its really hot and then pushing the end of the lid that touches the handle until it sits properly. Now it fits perfect. Would of rated higher if brita shipped it with the lid already fittingCustomer Review: Great Pitcher and well worth what you save in bottles
Summary: 5 Stars
I love this pitcher. I chose the grand because it was one of the largest pitchers I could find. I prefer the pitcher to the Ultramax dispenser because it's easier to refill. After I poor a glass of water, I just immediately fill it up. A previous reviewer said it's easy to spill the water out the top because you have to wait for it to filter. All the pitchers I use don't instantly get all the water through the filter. It takes a little bit of time. If you're being heavy handed with it, then you'll spill. If you just lift and place in the fridge, you'll be fine. I like the digital tracker as well. I'm forgetful and until my water tastes terrible, I won't realize I need to change the filter. I've saved so much on water bottles and only need to buy a replacement every three months for about $14.00.
I highly recommend this filter.
Customer Review: Brita Water Pitcher
Summary: 4 Stars
I have this Brita pitcher at home and now at my office as well. No more plastic bottles -- EVER!!! I also think the Brita filtered water tastes better than bottled water.
