Mavea 1001127 Marella Water Filtration Pitcher Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Recently I replaced my original PUR pitcher with this very attractive Mavea pitcher and I'm happy with it.The water tastes as good, if not a little better, than my PUR-filtered water.I have no way to run a scientific test on the two pitchers, just going by my taste buds, and that's what matters to me.

My city water comes from a reservoir that has an algae problem every summer, and this year it started earlier than normal; the chemicals used to treat the algae taste so bad I gag when brushing my teeth.This filter removes the bad taste, along with many other chemicals that are present in our water.It does NOT remove the fluoride though.

The pitcher is constructed similar to the PUR with the double chamber.This is the cheaper model of the Mavea pitchers, and this one has a timer on top; it keeps track of time only, not how many pitchers of water have been filtered through.To get a pitcher that keeps track of the amount of water filtered through, you would have to purchase the Elemaris model.In either pitcher model the battery lasts around 5 years according to the literature, but it's not replaceable, so the pitcher needs replaced every 5 years, if you want to continue to use the gauge.

I love the flip-up lid to refill the water; the only time you have to remove the entire lid is to replace the filter or wash out the pitcher.Initially the entire lid is hard to snap on to the pitcher, but with the tight fit that will mean that it won't come off when pouring.

This does fit inside my refrigerator door, but I have the extra large shelves that hold gallon jugs.Not so sure it will fit if you have smaller shelves in your door.

BPA-free plastic is used in all the parts of the pitcher, and Mavea also has a filter recycling program if you are into that.They will provide the postage to ship the filters back to them, but you have to wait until you accumulate 6 filters before returning.

You don't have to soak a new filter like you do with the PUR filters, but you need to run 2 pitchers of water through a new filter before drinking.I hope Amazon continues to stock the replacement filters as I know of no other place that sells them...hopefully, this brand of water pitcher will catch on and they will be easier to find in the future.
