Title: Outstanding water filter system.
Review: I purchased the British Berkefeld Gravity Water Filter System late last year due to growing concerns about our tap water, which had started to taste strange, was often fizzy, and occasionally appeared cloudy. The system arrived promptly, and I was immediately impressed by the meticulous packaging. Every component, including the sleek 8.5L stainless steel unit and the two Doulton Ceramic Ultra Sterasyl Cartridges, was well-protected, ensuring they arrived in perfect condition.The system itself is not only stylish but also robust and durable. Setting it up was straightforward thanks to the clear instructions provided.As a gravity-based system, it’s incredibly easy to use – you simply pour tap water into the upper chamber and let gravity handle the filtration process.The filters are exceptional, efficiently removing 99.99% of common contaminants such as PFAS, bacteria, chlorine, cysts, microplastics, heavy metals, pesticides, and pharmaceuticals. Doulton also offers filters designed to remove fluoride, but since Essex and Suffolk water do not currently add fluoride to their water treatment in my area, there’s no need for those yet. However, I’ll definitely purchase them if the situation changes.Given the deteriorating state of our water infrastructure and the frequent reports of contaminants entering the water system, it’s essential to take measures to ensure the safety of our drinking water. As someone who drinks about 3-5 litres of water throughout the day, I don’t want to take any chances with my health or my family’s.The difference in taste and clarity between tap water and filtered water is truly remarkable. Our tap water used to have a sweet taste and was sometimes murky. Now, we enjoy crystal clear, great-tasting water without any unpleasant aftertaste. The filters offer excellent value for money, especially considering they only need to be changed every six months. Cleaning them with a brush or scotch pad can also extend their lifespan.The 8.5L capacity is perfect for my family’s daily needs, reducing the frequency of refills. The system handles a large volume of water with ease, making it ideal for both drinking and cooking purposes.For the 8.5L size, I recommend running at least 3 full containers’ worth of water through the filters initially to remove any ceramic residue, which can make the water appear slightly milky.The only aspect of this product that bothered me was the spigot. It comes with a black plastic spigot that feels quite weak and looks out of place on an otherwise nearly all-stainless steel unit. For the price I paid, I would have expected a stainless steel spigot. I assume the plastic is BPA-free since the system is designed to filter out contaminants, including microplastics, but this isn’t mentioned anywhere. Not wanting to take any chances, I decided to replace it with a stainless steel spigot, which you can purchase relatively cheaply on here.Additionally, the spigot is positioned very close to the base of the bottom container, so the system needs to be placed on the edge of a countertop or elevated on a stand to fit a glass or bottle underneath it. I opted for a base stand, which is also available on here. Though it isn’t cheap, it does a fantastic job and looks great, as seen in my photos.Overall, I’m extremely satisfied with my purchase. The British Berkefeld Gravity Water Filter System is a fantastic product. It provides clean, great-tasting water, is easy to use, and represents excellent value for money. The initial investment is offset by the long-lasting filters and the significant improvement in water quality. The ceramic filters are durable and easy to clean, which adds to the overall convenience and cost-effectiveness of the system.I highly recommend this filter to anyone seeking a reliable and efficient water filtration solution.Thank you for taking the time to read my review. I hope that you found it helpful and that it assists you in your decision-making. I try to be as honest and fair as possible, as those have always been the reviews that helped me the most.

Review: This is a superior water filter – no plastic parts involved. Two ceramic filters make an excellent job of cleaning tap water. No more scum in your tea, the water tastes excellent.

Title: Does the job!
Review: Works a treat, gave 4 stars because as others have said the tap is plastic should be metal and also for the price a stand should come with it!20 quid for a stand!!

Title: Filters all the added extras you don’t need
Review: Water is pure and clean.Boils quicker due to less impuritiesTastes great!We only use this now for any water source, dog water, drinking water, for cooking. Everything reallyThis size would suit a couple or a small family of three, anymore would need and bigger unit.The tap is a bit poor quality but it doesn’t leak so I will replace with a stainless steel unit in due course.I highly recommend this water filter and suggest that if you aren’t aware what goes into your tap water that you do some research as it is quite scary

Title: Taste the difference
Review: I was keep looking for a proper water filter for long time. in the past I have used electrical ones with 8-9 filtering option. However, problem is they are most of the time causing water leakage, waste water amount is huge, and replacing filters becoming problem and costly. So I decided to go with non-electrician versions like British Berkefeld gravity water filter systems. Major reason I have chosen this brand they are a company of 2 centuries. That means once I need to replace any part of the system they will be there to supply. They will not just appear on Amazon once, sell the stuff and disappear. installation is quite easy, takes 30 minutes to wash everything and install. I let first a few tank of water to go for the first time cleaning purpose. Then we started to use it. Taste of the water definitely changes, it is much softer and you do not feel heaviness of the tap water. It is easy to fill up and use. That is what I was looking for. If you are looking for a water filter for long time use, and do not want to deal with lots of parts and hassle, this is your go to product.

Title: Great filter…but
Review: This is a great water filter, and the 6 litre version is just enough for us to keep 3 glass Ikea bottles topped up in the fridge for when we need it. However, the plastic tap supplied with it is very poor and cheap, and has a slow pour rate, so we bought a far superior one for only a tenner. I don’t mind paying the price for this filter, but would expect one of the most important components to be a the same quality too, so for I’ve given it 3 stars for penny pinching, and annoyance at have to buy a separate tap.

Title: Great water filter.
Review: I have used more water filters than I can count and I must say this is the best!!! Easy to fill up, easy to clean, easy to assemble, very robust, great quality, works fantastic and no leak problems and it also looks good! Even brought another one for my nanny. Would highly recommend. The filter is easy too! I have a Zero water filter before this one and it made my water taste like fish when it went so it’s nice not to have that any more. O

Title: Leaves an acidic after taste
Review: I followed the instructions and also watched YouTube videos on setting it up. I previous and an American Berkey for 8 years but Berkey have stopped doing the black filters, as they are in some lawsuit. Anyway the water in this tastes awful and leaves such a bad taste in my mouth. It’s making me feel sick. It tastes very similar to the Zero Water filter – horrible.

Review: This cost a small fortune, and then to add insult to injury, I had to upgrade from the cheap plastic spout it came with.

Review: Der Wasserfilter sieht nicht nur gut aus, er filtert auch das Wasser extrem gut. Das Wasser schmeckt sehr gut und auch die Geräte wie beispielsweise der Katzentrinkbrunnen hat keine schmierigen Ablagerungen mehr. Ich habe den kleinen und der größere wird sicher noch dazukommen. Aber wichtig, den Metallwasserhahn dazubestellen, da der mitgelieferte nicht dicht ist.

Review: J’ai attendu 12 mois avant de poster ce commentaire pour avoir le recul nécessaire et je suis absolument ravi de mon achat du filtre British Berkfeld Doulton ! Après l’avoir utilisé de suite je suis épatée par la qualité de l’eau qu’il produit. Non seulement il élimine efficacement les impuretés, mais il laisse également une saveur nette et fraîche à chaque gorgée. Son design solide et durable est un vrai plus, et son installation simple en fait un ajout pratique à ma cuisine. Je recommande vivement ce filtre à tous ceux qui recherchent une solution fiable pour améliorer la qualité de leur eau potable. Un investissement qui vaut vraiment la peine. J’ai fait des essais avec de l’eau de récupération, de pluie car nous bénéficions tout de même d’une eau courante de qualité.
