Our family loves our Berkey. I feel good knowing we are getting pure water and the best Katy we no not have to buy bottled water.
We bought some property deep in the East Texas forest. We drilled a well for water, but wanted to have a very clean source for drinking. Our daughter has had one for years and we were familiar with the operation and quality. We did buy extra filters as being a new well, the sediment levels have not flushed out completely. But for my wife and I, we love it.
It’s great ! I feel better drinking something safe and the water taste clean!!
What good is your system if I cant buy your replacement filters? Who do you recommend since you don't have any?
I like the spigot it’s easy to use and it tells me how much water is in my Berkey. My only complaint is the sides of the spigot are sharp when you clean it.
Took on a trip. Filled up in hotel bathroom, then squeezed a lot of water out of a little straw to fill family water bottles. It leaks when doing this and takes some patience to fill large bottles.
Best if you're sucking out of the straw on the actual bottle (which I really didn't care to do since we were using it to fill 5 water bottles).
Overall grateful I could easily pack & use it for my beloved Berkey water on vacation.
My longtime plastic spigot gave out and I replaced it with the stainless steel one. What a fantastic change! Thank you Berkey! Everything about the flow of water is better.
First, I am thrilled with the Berkey and the benefits of knowing I'm getting clean clean water with no plastic involved.
However, I didn't realise how much water the two of us go through, and, while the Big Berkey works well, I end up filling it up two (sometimes 3) times a day. The fill / flow rate isn't as fast as the old Brita was but I trust the Berkey more.
What do we use the Berkey for that we use so much: coffee machine, kettle, cat water, ice machine, some cooking
Definitely recommend for all good reasons.
I love my travel Berkey. I can’t find genuine Berkey filters. Got an off brand and it isn’t as good. Tjanks
Shipment arrived quickly. Like having these additional filters for cleaner water. Easy to prime and use. Patiently waiting for the black element filters to be available.
I am happy with the Spigot. I am VERY annoyed I cannot order just an accessory. I wanted to buy a stand. I didnt see anywhere on the website that I had to buy everything I wanted when I bought the system. I assumed I could buy the accessories at any time. Very annoying.
When you contact customer service, these are the filters they recommend to purchase while the Berkey ones are out of stock: https://www.usaberkeyfilters.com/products/7-inch-ceramic-ultra-sterasyl-water-filter-nsf-certified/
I bought the Imperial Berkey to meet the needs of my family. I particularly like it because it is not powered by electricity and by filling it once per day it provides enough filtered water for my family for that day. I recently ordered the sight spigot because it makes it much easier to gage how much water to put in at any time--we had an overflow the first time we filled it. (It would be nice if the sight spigot came with the system.) So far, I haven't cleaned the filters yet but have watched a video about how to do it. The videos help a lot in the set up and I will be depending on a video to get me through a filter cleaning too.
My daughter researched the Berkey and when she told me all that it filters out I knew I needed to buy one. Because of all the plastics in our water supply I've been buying bottled water; which really is an oxymoron. No longer do I need to tote heavy gallons of water or spend money every week on bottled water. This is one if the best investments I have recently made. Thank you for a great product!
Easy set up, convenient use, pure taste
Keeps our Bwrkwy just high enough ofd the counter making it easy to fill a pitcher for the fridge. Does not slip at all.
Very happy with your fluoride filters.
Waiting to buy the black filters when you re-stock.
Please let me know.
I’m so happy we got the stand for our Berkey. Highly recommend if you are getting the water system.
We love our Big Berkey. The only thing I would do differently would be to buy the next size bigger. Love, love, live the Berkey system. No more buying water.
We’ve had ours for about 2 years. My daughter is getting married in September and she only wanted us to get her a Berkey for her wedding gift in her new house. She and her fiancee love ours so of course I bought them their own!
Love the Berkey, but it simply took too long to receive it. Should be shipped out within 24 hrs. and it took at least a week before it even shipped.
This travel size Berkey is the perfect size for our home. It was easy to set up. It's right by our sink so easy to fill. The filtered water is delicious. No more clorinated taste from the tap. Enough filtered water to satisfy our needs and I use it for my sourdough, no more letting the tap water sit out to be able to use. An excellent product.
