Best Water Filter Pitcher – PUR Ultimate Pitcher

I have come across this variety of water filters only occasionally, so I suppose they’re not really what most households are looking for in terms of water filters. However, I feel compelled to review this particular PUR model, because the PUR faucet mount that I’m using is really very good, I have confidence in this brand, and because this water filter comes in really handy when you’re outdoors, like when you’re camping, at the beach, or at a picnic.

This pitcher comes with two filters, each able to filter 40 gallons of water, so you can be assured that you’re buying a very affordable water filtering solution. It’s maximum capacity at one time is 10 cups of water, a very respectable amount if you’re looking for an outdoorsy solution, but not very convenient if you’re looking for a water filter at home.
How does it work?

It uses gravity to filter water, so it’s not as fast as you might like, but it’s not very slow either. I found it worked quite respectably when we took it with us on a camping trip in the woods near our house, and we never ran out of clean water to drink.

Like it’s faucet-mounted cousin (mounted in my kitchen! ), it filters a lot of gunk, like trihalomethanes (TTHMs) which are a byproduct of chlorination, lead, chorine, mercury, virtually all cryptosporidium and giardia, resulting in very clean, potable water.
If you’re looking for a portable water filter alternative that won’t break the bank, I really feel this would do the trick for you. 
