Review: Just get it :) - I bought it because I found that a lot of the bottled water I was buying had a weird tap watery taste to it. I remember a friend talking soo highly of this jug and how fresh and crisp it tasted. So I gave it ago and I do NOT regret it. It makes the water taste super fresh and in the long run will save money on buying glorified bottles of tap water. Great for the environment too! We’ve used sooo much less plastic bottles and our glass cups have been put to much more use :) Cannot recommend it enough, you won’t regret it :) PS: if you’re worried about having to keep refilling it, it’s really not as much of a bother as you would imagine and it filters quite quickly too :) Review: Does the job - Purchased purely for topping up the water container in my LG American style fridge/freezer. Dispenses cold water and ice. I live in a hard water area and having spent a deal of money on this item, I did not want it ruined by hard water. The Britain jug turns the tap water into crystal clear, completely tasteless water. Makes the water from the fridge dispenser blooming marvelous. Squash tastes great when diluted with the filtered water. I keep the Britain jug in the fridge so the water is cold before I decant it. I have had 2 in the past and they are great for making tea and coffee, via the kettle of course. Also stops my kettle from scaling up. Saving electricity. The Britain filter is a great way of making sure that the water you drink is free of limescale and nasty chemicals. Just remember to wash the jug before you insert a new filter. Cleaning it is a doddle, squirt of Fairy liquid, Dawn for our American cousins, add tap water, wash it, rinse it. Prepare the new filter, run water through twice, dispose of the cleaning water, top up again and your ready to start another 28 days of sparkling water. What's not to like. ## Features - All-Rounder with the innovative BRITA filtration technology: 150 litres of filtered water with just one cartridge, fitting in standard fridge doors. - Features a spout cover, one-hand filling with the flip-lid, BRITA Memo measures time to remind on filter exchange.

Does one have to do anything other than put the pieces together and fill it with water?** A: Dear Customer, aside from cleaning and putting the jug together it's crucial to follow thorough preparation guidelines of the cartridge before use to ensure all loose carbon dust and air locks have been eradicated. To do this: 1. Remove packaging from cartridge. 2. Fill basin/sink with cold water. 3. Immerse cartridge under water and vigorously shake from side to side for 10 seconds. (you will notice small bubbles rising to the surface of the water from the cartridge). 4. When the bubbles have stopped, remove the cartridge from basin/jug and place in the system. 5. Filter 2 - 3 batches of water through the system to remove any carbon dust from the cartridge (carbon dust can become dislodged during transit). Your cartridge should now be fully operational. Kind regards, BRITACare **Q: Does it comes with 3 free cartridges ? And 1 with jug.** A: Hi, yes this particular offer is the jug and 3 cartridges. Kind regards, BRITACare **Q: Hi, it says the filter lasts approx. 4 weeks, is this dependent on how many times the jug is filled and emptied i.e. is there a refill limit?** A: The Maxtra+ filter will last for 4 weeks or filter 100litres of water whichever comes first. This is based on average use in an average water harness area. However, the memo timer will prompt you to change the Maxtra+ after 4 weeks - BRITACare **Q: Is there any tint of colour to the clear part of the jug or is it colourless?** A: Hi, the jug is colourless. Kind regards, BRITACare ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Just get it :) *by Z***B on 8 August 2026* I bought it because I found that a lot of the bottled water I was buying had a weird tap watery taste to it.
