My husband and I decided to purchase a water filter after the East Palestine, Ohio train derailment. We didn't want to go with the typical, mainstream brita water filter or the one that connects to a faucet. We have had those before and the filter has to be changed frequently.
We liked that the Berkey filters out forever chemicals, specifically the chemicals spilled during the derailment. It also filters out over 200 contaminants, chemicals and bacteria. Setup was fairly easy, however priming the elements was challenging due to the adapter that fit onto our faucet which was a struggle. The life span of the filters is amazing, as they only need to be changed every 11,000 gallons. Although the filters are pricey, around $170ish for 2, they are worth it in the long run. Using the filter is easy. Once set up, just pour water in the top, put the lid back on and you're good to go. Quality of the materials is unmatched. We purchased a stand off Amazon that elevates the element, which you definitely need. Hoping to get the stainless steel spigot soon to replace the plastic one that came with the product.
Lastly, I have to say the water tastes AMAZING. Like water should taste. It rivals the taste of Fiji, our preferred bottled water. Our family initially made fun of us for spending so much money on a water filter, but once they tasted it they plan on purchasing one. I was never a big water drinker before, but now I find myself drinking lots of it. We fill up multiple containers of it whenever we leave the house. Great product, give it a try!

Works great and it’s BEAUTIFUL!

Okay…I love this! I was really worried how I’d integrate such a large item (design wise) into my kitchen. But it looks like it was made for my space! The Berkey is beautiful aesthetically, and works great already (see dye test video). My daughter said it tastes like “silky water.” It was easy to set up by myself. I did order the stainless spigot separately.

I haven’t used our tap water for years… it’s nasty 🤮 Unfortunately, bottled water isn’t as economical as it was a couple years ago, so I bought this to filter the tap water. I was seriously surprised at how well it filters… and I can actually use our tap water now. I mainly use it for cooking and for coffee/tea. I honestly haven’t been able to give up my natural spring water for drinking. But this filter has truly improved our tap water to be used… that’s a Win! Tried it… Love it… and I have now ordered an actual stand for it. It’s a KEEPER! Oh, and priming it was easy, setting it up was easy… using it is fun!
Update: ok, I have to admit, even with the filtering system of this Big Berkey… I just couldn’t stomach using the tap water. 🤣 Just the thought of it kept grossing me out. So I now run my natural spring bottled water through this. Much happier!
