Mavea elemaris xl water filtration pitcher review

MAVEA Elemaris XL Water Filtration Pitcher review The Mavea Pitcher is an attractive, easy to use, quick processing filter that removes odors and many common contaminants. The elongated footprint allows it to fit in most refrigerator doors for convenience, and the automatic pour through lid of the Mavea Elemaris XL opens and closes automatically. Just put in a stream of water to fill, and the lid closes when the reservoir is full.

Mavea Water Filter Pitcher – Pros and Cons Pro: The filter is FAST. In a matter of minutes, an entire reservoir of water is filtered.

It's been really handy during canning season for removing sulfur odor and hardness from our well water.

Pro: The pitcher is large, and can hold enough water to have a glass ready for everyone.

Pro: It's BPA free.

Pro: It's pretty. The Mavea Elemaris XL is available in eggplant, ruby red, sage green, white and black.

Pro: It's got a handy littler meter to remind you when to change the filter.

Pro: The filters are 100% recyclable.

Con: It doesn't remove fluoride, and is not recommended for filtering non-potable water. This is not suitable for emergency water filtration.

Con: For my tastes, I prefer the flavor of the Berkey filter better, but my husband prefers the taste of the water from this filter.

Con: The pitcher is plastic, so of course that's a “no” for those who are trying to go plastic free.

This superior and stylish German-made pitcher is the next generation in water filtration.
