Great water system

Best water

I had been drinking from a Berkey at my brother’s for the past 5 years. But always balked at the price. But this year when Milton hit I was without power and fresh water. I knew it was time to buy a Berkey. I should have done it sooner. The water taste great.

Big Berkey

It’s been a month already and we are happy with our purchase . Be sure and read through all directions prior to set up . Learning curve to priming technique . Will take two people. If you have the clear water spigot make sure the blue ball is buried at the bottom position prior to refill . We had water coming out the top before we realized we should have had it more empty than we did . Water tastes great - easy to fill if you have a nozzle on your sink and place Berkey near by . Would purchase again .

Not Like It Once Was

The gasket around the bottom of the Big Berkey smelled so toxic we put it in a box and sealed it up, as well as the black element filters. Toxic fumes that made the water smell and taste undrinkable. The stainless steel housing is fine but we had to go to another company for filters to fit it. Not thrilled with our purchase at all. Then we were informed that it would likely be difficult to impossible to get new filters once these wore out. We had a much larger Berkey many years ago and we never had toxic odors emanating from the filters nor the gasket on the bottom. The water tasted perfect many yrs ago. Made us think we must have received a knock off and not a real Berkey. Very disappointed.

Best Water Ever!

Perfect gift

My purchase was a gift for a friend who was lugging large plastic containers of water to her upstairs studio. Now, she can enjoy filtered water from the convenience of her residence.

I missed the taste of chlorine.

I was used to the flavor, But after about a week, I can't believe the difference. Even the ice cubes taste better. Yes, I'm using ice trays. I'll never go back.

delicious water

the water tastes as I have not tasted in years. I drink much more water now.
