Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of PUR CR-6000 7-Cup Water Filtration Pitcher
Customer Review: WOW! I just love this pitcher!
Summary: 5 Stars
For years, I've been lugging bottles of water (mostly distilled) so that I can avoid weird water tastes, cloudy water and mystery pollution floating in it. Well, I guess I'm about to miss out on all those great work-outs I've been doing. There'll be no more heavy lifting for me or squandering tons of money (it really adds up!) on bottled water. I can also congratulate myself on sparing the environment all those plastic jugs in the trash.
PUR CR-600 2 Stage Oval Water Pitcher is excellent, efficient and cost-effective. The pitcher, itself, is quite sturdy. I've been using this pitcher for weeks now, and I'm certain that it will last a good long time. I highly recommend it and only wish I had purchased one years ago!
Customer Review: Good tasting water..
Summary: 4 Stars
I purchased this pitcher and a "stainless steel" water bottle, but the bottle wasn't anything like what was advertised, so Amazon removed the bottle from their website and gave me a refund.
But, the pitcher does deliver great filtered water. My wife receives free Dasani purified water at work, but prefers the water filtered by this pitcher. So, she fills those empty bottles with "our" water and carries them to work or when she is out shopping.
I'm a big coffee drinker, and using the water from this pitcher makes the coffee taste much better and less acidic.
Now, if I could just get a good promotional price on replacement filters, the deal would be more than perfect.
Customer Review: Love it. Exactly what I was looking for.
Summary: 5 Stars
I absolutely love this water filter. I have disgusting tasting, foggy city water, and after this pitcher filters my water, it is completely clear and tastes wonderful. I am 100% satisfied. Extremely easy to assemble, and I like the filter replacement guide on the side to help remind you when to change the filter. I had no problems with the lid falling off when pouring or the unfiltered water pouring out with the filtered water. The water seems to filter extremely quickly. I can fill the top part almost all the way full, and it will be completely filtered in 15-20 minutes. I am buying another pitcher for my mom because it is such a reasonably priced, useful, high quality product.Customer Review: Pur filter is slow
Summary: 2 Stars
This tiny pitcher takes over 8 hours sometimes to filter a load of water.
It gets a bonus star because I can pour it while it's still filtering, by holding the lid down with my hand.
EDIT 11-28-2007:
I bought a replacement Pur filter at Target. This one has a hole in the top of it that is supposed to improve water flow, and it sure does -- I can get two 8oz glasses of water out of it in less than 5 mins. I hope it's filtering properly, at that speed (it does taste good). So I'll leave my review at 2 stars until it becomes apparent that this pitcher is shipping with the improved filter, rather than the old slow one.
Customer Review: Good -- no cover over spout
Summary: 4 Stars
This is a good, cheap, water purification pitcher/filter. The other reviews are generally correct -- it takes hours to filter your water -- but that isn't a problem for me -- I put it in the refrigerator and it's there when I need it. I generally always keep it topped off each time I open the fridge.
My only complaint -- it does not have a lid over the spout. I find myself putting a wadded paper towel into the spout opening to prevent the water from starting to taste/smell like the interior of the refrigerator.
Otherwise, I can't complain. It does what it says, and it does so at a really cheap price.
