Good Water Jug
Top reviews from United Kingdom
There was a problem filtering reviews. Please reload the page.
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 21 December 2014Very impressed by this water jug. Purchased it at a reduced price.., about the same as I pqid for a smaller, inferior one but this one is in a whole different class.
Yes, it was probably reduced because of a design flaw.., the tap water could leak out by the handle because the handle is placed lower than the sides of the jug.., but u just have to fill it with 50mls less water.., hardly an enormous effort to overcome.
Unlike my last Brita jug, you don't have to spend minutes trying to fit the filter holder into the jug (no notches to match up or break).., it just slides in as easy as anything. Although I have always used Brita filter jugs, the plastic on this one feels much better quality and longer lasting. It also takes the filters I used before (Maxtra) so no wasteage there.
It stores enough water so I have to refill it about half the times I did. Brilliant, as although I am lucky enough to have a teen to make coffee sometimes, he seems only to be able to make it whilst emptying the jug and leaving it empty. No more delays waiting for the water to filter when I have to make a coffee myself! I would imagine you can get four very large mugs of coffee from the water this jug stores. Ideal for a family.
The thing that no one seems to comment on when you have a water jug.., is that you don't have to keep replacing kettles. Before I started using them, I was lucky if a kettle lasted a year, usually 6 months. They all started leaking from the bottom. It didn't matter if they were cheap or expensive, they all leaked within a space of months. I'm still using the same kettle 2 years later since I started using filter jugs. So it saves me a lot of money.
I have wide door shelving in my fridge so can put the jug on these shelves., but people with a small fridge will have problems with this. But I doubt anyone who needed a large jug like this would have a small fridge.
And the water tastes wonderful. Its sweet and refreshing not tasting of chlorine and metal like the water straight out of the tap in this area often does.
As you can see, I can't say enough about this filter jug and would recommend it to anyone.
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 4 May 2024The BRITA Elemaris XL Water Filter Jug is a game-changer for anyone seeking pure and refreshing hydration at home. With its sleek design, large capacity, and advanced filtration technology, this jug delivers clean, crisp water with every pour.
One of the standout features of the Elemaris XL is its innovative MAXTRA+ filter cartridge. Utilizing a unique combination of activated carbon and ion exchange resin, the cartridge effectively reduces impurities such as chlorine, limescale, and heavy metals, resulting in great-tasting water that's perfect for drinking, cooking, and brewing beverages.
The jug's generous 3.5-liter capacity makes it ideal for households of all sizes, providing ample water for daily hydration needs. Plus, the ergonomic handle and easy-fill lid ensure comfortable handling and hassle-free refilling, even when the jug is full.
Another notable feature is the Elemaris XL's intelligent filter change indicator. This handy feature notifies you when it's time to replace the filter cartridge, ensuring consistent water quality and optimal filtration performance at all times.
Additionally, the Elemaris XL is constructed from high-quality materials, making it durable and long-lasting. The jug's sleek white design adds a touch of elegance to any kitchen countertop, while its compact footprint allows for convenient storage when not in use.
Overall, the BRITA Elemaris XL Water Filter Jug is a must-have for anyone looking to enjoy clean, crisp water at home. With its advanced filtration technology, large capacity, and user-friendly design, it's sure to become a staple in your daily hydration routine. Highly recommended!
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 1 February 2011This is a good Brita water filter, though I wouldn't go as far as to say it was amazing. It could be improved. (I've been using it for 2 months now).
Good Points:
-Pours wonderfully! Very clean.
-Well made, all the pieces fit together well... nice and simple design.
-Electric meter on the lid tells you when the filter needs changing.
-Both jug and filters can be bought very reasonably online/ in stores like Argos.
And now the Bad:
-Brita promotes the 'Maxtra' filters and the Jug range as being v.superior to other brands, but after doing a taste test with other people, drinking pure water from the new Brita jug and my old Kenwood one I was replacing, I couldn't taste the difference AT ALL. Be aware this jug does not make you bottled mineral water!! The water tastes fine, I was just a little disappointed that it wasn't notably better than my old jug.
-The hole where you fill the jug on the lid is covered my a plastic flap that pushes inwards when you fill it with water. This is supposed to be 'innovative' , but actually it just falls off all the time, and you have to click it back into place. I worry that it will break in the end.
-Also if you have just filled the jug up you have to wait for all the water to filter through before you can pour some into a glass/bottle. As the hole where you fill the water into on the lid is not water tight... hence if the water is still in the upper compartment, it just spills out everywhere.
Overall I think this jug is overhyped! It's all a bit of a fuss! Definitely not worth the RRP of £30...
My advice would be don't just buy because of the brand name!
FOLLOW UP TO REVIEW ... 6 MONTHS AFTER BUYING THIS WATER FILTER (AND IT WORKING FLAWLESSLY) THE ELECTRIC DIGITAL METER DIAL ON THE TOP HAS NOW COMPLETELY BROKEN. It does't work at all - I've tried replacing the battery. So now I have to guess when to change the cartridge (just like the old ones)! Clever idea BRITA - but not a very reliable one yet.

5.0 out of 5 stars Agua sin sabor a cloro :-)
Buen producto. dispone en la base y en el asa de insertos de silicona, que sirven para un correcto y cómodo agarre, ademas de cuidar las superficies donde coloquemos la jarra de arañazos. En cuanto al agua que es para lo que realmente sirve, la puntuación es inmejorable, y no se puede pedir más. El tema del llenado y que rebose, es que si la llenamos hasta arriba, como la tapa no es hermética, el exceso de agua se saldrá por la parte del mango, que es la mas baja, es tan sencillo de evitar, como llenarla un poco menos. El indicador de cambio de filtro, esta muy bien, y es muy bonito, pero si le hacemos caso, en la mayoría de las ocasiones, tendremos que cambiar el filtro cada mes, cosa que yo no hago, y lo sustituyo en cuanto varia el sabor del agua, que suele estar en torno a los dos meses en verano (la utilizamos mucho), y los tres meses y medio en invierno.

5.0 out of 5 stars Suuuper sache.....
........ok, als ich vor 14 Jahren bei einer Bekannten war, hatte sie nicht gerade schön aussehenden Tee in der Tasse. Sie hatte sich dann einen Wasserfilter von Britta zugelegt und was soll ich sagen, der Tee sah nicht mehr so schlimm aus und er schmeckte um längen besser.
Gut, das war vor langer Zeit..........und Heute ist es nicht anders. Der Elemaris lässt sich wie alle anderen Wasserfilter von Britta leicht bedienen, sieht schick aus und Filtert das Wasser in einer super Qualität, so das Früchtetee nach Früchte schmeckt, auch wenn das Wasser sehr hart ist (Wie bei mir zu Hause). Auspacken, einfacher Zusammenbau, Wasser rein und nach einem Moment gefiltertes Wasser genießen. Die Anzeige ist gut abzulesen und die automatische Öffnung zum Wasser eingießen ist Praktisch, könnt aber etwas größer sein, aber mit ruhiger Hand geht nix daneben. Wassermenge ist ausreichend und ich rate zu den XXL Modellen, egal für welchen Wasserfilter Mann/Frau sich entscheidet.

5.0 out of 5 stars Utile pour les machines qui ne supporte pas trop le calcaire
J'ai un tres grand réfrigérateur alors la carafe va à l'intérieur sans probleme sur un des rangements de la porte du frigo. Heureusement d'ailleurs. Sinon il faut se rendre compte qu'il prendra une partie de l'étagère d'un frigo normale. Il faut en tenir compte lors de l'achat d'une grande carafe XL.
Personnellement j'adore ! Il n'y a pas besoin de le remplir tous les jours. Je l'utilises pour ma machine à café et ma machine a glaçon, c'est extra.
Avec les filtres, l'eau n'a pas de goût. C'est génial. 👍
Le seul petit défaut c'est que quoi qu'on fasse on dirait qu'au bout d'un mois il faut changer les filtres. On dirait que le moniteur électronique des filtres (je ne sais plus le nom de cet écran LCD) ne tient pas réellement compte du nombre de fois où l'on change l'eau, ou de la dureté de celle-ci, etc mais plutôt du nombre de jours entre les changements de filtre. Mais ce n'est que mon avis, je peux me tromper..

5.0 out of 5 stars Ottimo prodotto, ottimo venditore, cambiate corriere!
Tutto perfetto, conoscevo già l'articolo. Arrivato in anticipo, peccato solo per il corriere (Ups) che avrebbe (il condizionale è d'obbligo) tentato la consegna in un giorno per il quale il mio account aveva negato l'autorizzazione in quanto la portineria è chiusa. Nonostante ciò in casa erano presenti 3 persone che negano sia mai suonato il citofono tanto che il pacco è stato recapitato, senza altri tentativi, in un punto di ritiro. Da Ups nessun biglietto e nessuna email, né mi è stata fornita alcuna informazione, indirizzo del punto di ritiro compreso. Solo la gentilezza del venditore mi ha permesso di risalire al punto di ritiro e recuperare il pacco.
