Water filter pitchers are one of the most effective yet simple ways to provide you and your family with quality drinking water. Just a short time ago, we did not have too many choices when it came to self-filter water pitchers.
Luckily, we have so many choices these days, and the filtering technology just keeps getting better and better.
We are all dealing with different water supplies and face different challenges in selecting a water pitcher because of this. By following our review guide, you will learn all the ins and outs of water filters, and hopefully, this will direct you to the best water filter pitcher for you.

There is nothing more convenient than being able to fill a basic water pitcher and almost immediately reap the benefits of having clean drinking water. The Clearly Filtered water pitcher is large enough that I am not constantly refilling it but still fits in my refrigerator with ease.
The sleekly designed water filter features a filtering system that removes well over 200 contaminants, including lead and other heavy metals.
One of the biggest complaints we get when it comes to filtering water pitchers is the time it takes the water to run through it. I had no issues with the time it takes to filter the water.

2. Aquagear Water Filter Pitcher Review
Highlighted Features
The most economical way to get clean drinking water is a water filtering pitcher. Just a few years ago, there were so few options, but now thanks to Aquagear, we have another filtering pitcher! I love that these pitchers are so simple and easy. Just pop the filter into place, fill it up and let gravity (and the filter do their thing)
One thing that Aquagear prides itself on is its filter’s ability to remove over 2000% more contaminants than its competition. Combining these facts, along with the company’s overall mission of a more sustainable planet, makes this Aquagear filtering pitcher a great option.

3. Epic Pure Water Filter Pitcher
Highlighted Features
Utilizing three separate filters that each has 5-stage filtration, the Epic provides clean and pure water with the best of them. It is extremely effective at removing all contaminants found in tap water while leaving healthy minerals in your water like calcium and magnesium.
The filter is large enough to accommodate large families for an entire day, and the filter has a long lifetime as well.
One of the cooler functions on this water pitcher is the digital filter indicator. Rather than using an LED light or nothing at all, the Epic pitcher has a digital usage indicator. This tells us EXACTLY when we need to replace the filter. The entire thing is constructed of 100% BPA-Free materials, and the filters along with the pitcher are recyclable.

4. PUR CR1100C Classic 11 Cup Water Pitcher
Highlighted Features
PUR is one of the most trusted names in water filtration for a reason. They have consistently provided us with quality filtering options, and this pitcher is no different.
An extremely common complaint we receive from people is that their filter appears loose, and not all the water is going through it. With the PUR system, this is not a worry thanks to their patented LockFit design that holds filters in place.
When it comes to filtering qualities, the PUR system does a fine job of removing particles and contaminants commonly found in municipal water supplies. They redesigned their filters to handle more metals and solids, and our testing results proved that it worked. It is a large filter that fits in the fridge with ease.

5. EHM Ultra Premium Alkaline Water Pitcher
Highlighted Features
The new and improved EHM Ultra filtering pitcher has almost everything you are looking for a water filter pitcher. The strength and sturdiness of the pitcher were noticeable right away as it feels stronger and more well-built than any filtering pitcher we have reviewed so far. It has a large water tank that contains 3.8 L of total water, 2 of which are filtered.
It works very well on nearly all tap water contaminants that are common, like lead and chlorine. It also has alkaline attributes that make water even cleaner and better to drink.
The alkalizing process increases the pH level of your filtered water and makes it some of the best tasting water you have ever tasted.

6. Aquagear Pitcher Replacement Water Filter pitcher
Highlighted Features
This Aquagear filter is one of the most compact filters we have looked at so far. Do not be fooled by its size; it can still provide clean and clean drinking water with the best of them.
Designed specifically for Aquagear water pitchers, this filtration device is easily installed and lasts for a few months. One of the biggest complaints I receive about water pitchers is the constant need to replace the filter. That is no worry with the Aquagear filter; it lasts 3x longer than some others.
Another thing I liked about this replacement filter was the environmentally conscious materials it is made of. 100% BPA-Free and food-grade materials are used throughout the entire construction. Plastic is the only thing that works with water filtration, so if you must use it, this is the way to do it. It can save the average person over $1,000 in bottled water costs per year.

7. Brita Stream Filter as You Pour Water Pitcher
Highlighted Features
This pitcher is different than any other one we have looked at thus far because it works in reverse compared to most other models. Instead of pouring the water through the filter at the top, this filter works as you pour the water out from the pitcher, making it quicker to produce clean water.
Over time, the water pouring out will slow down if you do not change the filter. Luckily, there is an LED light that will flash red when it is time to change it out.
Brita was the originator of the filtering water pitcher, and products like these are why. The pour-out filtering type is revolutionary, and they were able to combine it with a massive 12 ounces of water. You will not need to refill this pitcher constantly, like some other comparable models. Combine all of these things with your choice of 4 different color schemes, and there is little more than you can ask for.

8. PUR CRF950Z Genuine Replacement Filter for Pitcher
Highlighted Features
These PUR filters are revolutionary with their patented LockFit technology filters. Gone are the days where your filter will float out of place or become dislodged, causing some water to sneak through without getting filtered. These filters are covered with a coconut shell cartridge that adds, even more, filtration attributes to your water.
The 40-gallon filter life is not the highest in the class, but we feel as if the benefits that this filter is providing make up for it. The entire filter and its cartridge are 100% recyclable as well. The green initiative that PUR has been working towards is something we appreciate and is a big reason why we love their products.

9. Naples Naturals 108X1 Alkaline Water Filter
Highlighted Features
Another alkaline water filter on our list is the Naples Natural pitcher. It is a large pitcher that can hold up to 10 cups of filtered water, but it has a sleek design that does not take up a lot of space in your fridge. It comes in 5 bright and unique colors that look great in any setting. The 70-gallon filter life is very good, and the filter locks into place.
Removing the filter is simple as well. Just give the pitcher a little tap on the countertop, and it will pop right out. The alkaline properties that this filter possesses are top-notch. We saw pH levels increase by 1-2 points after filtering. Combine that with the ability to remove common tap water contaminants effectively, this makes a great option for anyone
