I recieved the pur 7 cup basic pitcher and can tell you it is simple to assemble and use. The included filter last 2 months and reduces or removes certain pesticides, chlorine, and other common contaminants. The pur 7 cup pitcher is roughly 12 inches tall and 3 inches wide and fits in the fridge with ease and takes minimal space. The pitcher does take about 5 minutes to filter a full pitcher and taste crisp and clean all in all this is a great product and is much cheaper then bottled water not to mention all the plastic you save from the landfill
