I have been using the PUR 7 Cup Basic Pitcher and I love it. It does a wonderful job making my tap water filtered water. I just add water from the tap to my PUR 7 Cup Basic Pitcher and pour it out of the filter that is inside the pitcher and I have clean fresh water to drink. It taste great. This now saves me from having to go to the store and buy a big case if water carry it to the car then carry it into the house and load it into the refrigerator. Thanks to the PUR 7 Cup Basic Pitcher those days are over and my life is so much easier. The PUR 7 Cup Basic Pitcher has easy replacement filters and it let's you know when you will need a new filter. I do have to say the filter has lasted me quite a long time.
