Product review (2 stars): Painfully Slow
Ads for this pitcher showed water flowing into the filter at a moderate flow directly from the faucet. Don't you believe it. The filter won't handle more than a very weak trickle from the faucet before it starts to overflow. What's more, any water that does flow or splash out of the top runs down the side of the filter and into the pitcher, unfiltered. I thought this would be a good option for filling water bottles and the like without waiting for a pitcher to fill. With the slow flow rate, however, in most cases I'd rather wait for a slower pitcher to do it's work than stand around holding the filter over a bottle while trying to run the water slow enough to not overflow this thing.
