Brita Bottle
Are you a water junkie? Every day, we should all drink at least 64 ounces of water. Most people are starting to figure out what passes for tap water nowadays is usually not drinkable, heaven only knows what’s in it! So, we either buy individual bottles which are expensive, learn to like the tap stuff, or find a portable water filtration system. I’ll take what’s behind curtain number three. The Brita Water Bottle was a perfect solution!
It was years ago when I first saw this product advertised. I had been using my Brita pitcher for 6 months, so I knew the product, and the quality. I went to three different stores trying to find the Brita Fill and Go bottle, without any luck. As time went by, when I remembered, I would look around, but there just was nothing even remotely like it. One day, I remember it was March, as I was loading up on groceries, I passed by the kitchen aisle, and there it was! Yippee! I bought my Brita Bottle, I got the refills, and marched happily to the counter…
I follow the instructions very carefully, (I don’t want a mouthful of activated charcoal) and get the bottle set for work. It was so great to have the bottle. But here we are years later, I’ve used the bottle up, I have no more replacement filters, and now I find out Brita doesn’t carry the Fill and Go bottle anymore? What’s up with that?
The Brita Bottle did have some problems with it. I know from experience it seemed to leak sometimes, and really didn’t seem to filter if I squeezed too hard. Well, it’s actually a good thing, because you can now get a Brita Bottle that has been redesigned and manufactured correctly. I’m so happy that these portable water filters are back on the market again!!
