BRITA Flow Water Filter Tank 8.2L Fridge Dispenser

Absolutely superb device - holds a fantastic amount of water and actually does what it says on the tin - that it makes water so clean tasting and soft. Just exactly like bottled water. A little tip though - I've used many different Brita products over the years and this is my favourite due to it's capacity potential. But I've always found it helps to run the cold water tap for at least 2 or 3 minutes - as it's always best to draw the freshest cleanest water that you possibly can - and in my opinion it makes these devices even more effective.

disapointingly inefective

I write this reluctantly. I am sensitive to Chlorine, and dislike the taste of it. Having run 6 blatches through, (twice as many as suggested by Manufacturer) the reduction in chlorine, both taste and smell, could not be discerned. There was also a "metallic" taste to the water from the Brita, which did not appear prominent in the tap water as drawn.

I then cleaned the unit, and repeated twice, replacing the cartridge filter each time, both times rinsing filter and discarding initial batches. There was again no discernible improvement.

I then tried running a batch of store bought bottled water, (Glaceau Smart water) through the Britta unit. This again came out with a metallic taste which was not apparent in the water added to the reservoir. I gave this water both as the untouched Smart bottle and filtered through the unit in separate glasses to 2 other people as a blind test, both of whom remarked on the metallic tang to one glass (the Brita filtered water), and chose not to drink it.

have spoken to other Brita (jug) owners who have said theirs are not being used either.
have purchased a small DeSal plant, which does do the job beautifully.

Sad, because it is compact appealing and nicely engineered, just doesn't begin to do what it says.

Great Replacement

This water filter tank was bought to replace an earlier version which has function well for many years.
I am sure the new one will perform just as well.
Good value too.
Arrived promptly and well packed.Read full review...

Lightweight and easy to use

Great water filter. Compact and easy to use. Sturdy. Easily storable, change filter and clean when need to. Water does taste noticeably better than tap water. Good investment. I guess only downside is that the filters can be perceived as a little bit expensive unless you can get them on offer. Read full review...

The Bees Knees

I wanted a water filter that I could keep in the fridge so I would have cold water on tap and big enough to fill my kettle with as needed. Well this one is the Bees Knees! it is fantastic doesn't take up too much room in my fridge and big enough that I don't need to keep filling it up after every use. Since I starting using this filtered water my kettle has not had any scale marks at all and it is like new. I have been using this water filter now for 2 weeks and I love it. It has an easy fill slider on the top so you do not need to lift it out of the fridge to fill it just use a jug. I would highly recommend this water filter Read full review...

Great Brita water tank

Wanted a replacement from having a fridge water dispenser as my new fridge didn’t have one! jug would be too small as it’s used lots through out the day ! No more scum on the tea an the water tastes great through the filter. Great if you have a bigger fridge or you can leave it on the side . Doesn’t take long to fill I use a jug easy to use the tap to make drinks refil water bottles an kettle no more lime scale.Read full review...

Buy one, Great product 👍🏼

I have been filling and adding grapefruit to the bottom section for filtered healthy drink and I won’t be without one now.
I am not sure what the memo reminder button does it’s is supposed to remind me when I need to change cartridge - can’t comment as product is new. Instructions are difficult to follow as refer to the jug mainly which is odd but it’s is easy enough to figure out without then so not really needed. It fits nicely in the fridge but had to lower shelf which is fine as I wanted the bigger filter rather than keep filling jug. Looks nice in ice blue colour. Very happy with my choice.
Very happy overall, great product. Would definitely recommend.

No more buying bottled water

I was buying bottled water roughly 30 1.5 litre/2 litre bottles a week. So i decided to see if there was an option where we could all drink filtered tap water without it costing a fortune or meaning a lot of effort. The filter jugs weren't big enough for the needs of my family so when i saw this i bought it straight away. It's perfect. It fits neatly in my fridge & we just pull it forward slightly to use take water out. It has an indicator to tell you when to change the filter. We fill it when we take water out using a jug. Cleaning is as easy as cleaning a tupperware box or the drawer in the bottom of your fridge. My best friend was impressed & is buying 1 too. This will save us money as well as saving the world from plastic bottles. I liked my water with a touch of flavour so i bought an infusion bottle & i use waterdrops & cold infusions by twinnings or tetley in my bottle. I'm very impressed, water tastes great without flavouring. Highly recommend buying this.Read full review...

great update of the older model, well worth upgrading

having seen this new model i can tell you now this is excellent improvement on the old model and can really tell they sorted out all the minor annoying short comings of the 1st model
so what did they sort out from the old model which was really really good anyway
1. major difference was is the recessed tap are where it screws in now has a little dip so it lets all
the water flow out now where as the outlets sat higher so always about 2cms of water left it so
the whole time water was in it some would sit on the bottom and maybe not refreshed
2. more filtered water in the bottom try than before
3. the slider at the top is a great idea as having to pull the lid out of old one would sometimes go
moldy due to your fingers touching it ect and time lets the mold grow, so well done on that one
4. the filter actually sits lower so no build up of water or the carbon particles here and there
5. the top filling compartment is now see through and so much easier to judge how much in it
6. tiny little feet groves at bottom to stop it even slipping when you move the lid, yes brita is did
notice that little extra good thinking
7. the flow tap design is a lot nicer and seems to have a much better outflow than the old one

i've now given my old one to my lodgers in thier fridge so they very happy to have their own now if you see the older model its good but this is far greater so pay the little extra the new one

Lovely fresh water 👌

Really pleased with this purchase, water no longer has a chemical taste and it's great having a large supply of clean cold water in the fridge, the water is very hard in my area and i virtually have to descale my kettle weekly, not any more thanks to filling it up with the water in my brita tank, i descailed my kettle a month ago before the first filling up with filtered water and my kettle has honestly staid spotless, tea and coffee definitely tastes better, if you have very hard water definitely get one or even if you don't get one so you have lovely cold clean water in the fridge to drink, wish I'd bought one years ago, highly recommended 👌Read full review...

Great fridge water tank/dispenser.

This water container fits in the fridge perfectly. The tap is non drip even after filling glasses of cold water. The tank is also large enough to use filtered water for cooking. The tank is 8.5 Ltr plus. It also looks great. I am very impressed with this water filter tank and should be good for life with maxtra filter changes. It says dishwasher safe, but I will not be risking it. As the dishwasher tends to discolour plastics. Will be hand washing only mild warm soap and water.Read full review...
