The old one was better
I wanted a replacement for my old Brita pitcher and I wanted something simple, without the need for fancy-shmancy batteries/electronics - after all this is just a PITCHER!
This one was the one most similar to the one I had. However, unlike the one I had before, this one does not keep the lid on when there is water in the reservoir trickling through the filter. This means that you can't use the pitcher easily while it's refilling unless you remember to push the lid down with one hand while you pour with the other. Not doing so will result in a disastrous spill each time as the lid will slip off pouring water all over.
Not sure how/why, but the earlier version of this pitcher had a nicely designed fit that this would not happen. Had it been available, I would have purchased it.

Brita 35548
I read all the reviews and decided to replace my old Brita with this pitcher. The old Brita was many yrs old and finally a minute crack had become long and it was leaking. Unpacked this pitcher, washed by hand and started to dry it. As I am drying the pitcher, the handle cracked and now I am without a pitcher. Maybe it was a defect caused in manufacturing. I am glad that I did not have it filled with water. I will replace with Brita..have the filters and do not intend to waste them.

Loveit!
I have one that sits on my desk and helps to remind me to drink more water. It filters most of the bad stuff and helps me make some good tasting coffee!
