We made the mistake of purchasing a fridge that dispenses water from the inside of the fridge only with a slow, trickling flow. I love that this Pur dispenser is extra large with a fast flow comparable to my kitchen faucet. It holds a lot of water and only needs to be refilled every other day. I keep it next to the sink for easy refills and because I like water at room temperature. The dispenser’s handle can lock open which is great to fill large containers or to drain it while cleaning it. The speed of filtration is similar to other filtration jugs. It’s a bit slow but we really never have to wait because of the size of the tank. This has been a great addition to our kitchen. Love it!
