Re: Which water filter jug is best?
Living in a very hard water area, I've tried loads of water filter jugs; Brita, Brita Maxtra, Aqua Optima and even the supermarket own brands. I suppose out of all of them, Brita gives the best tasting water i.m.o, however, that said, I have now trashed the filter jugs and gone for cheapo bottled spring water as I find one filter only lasts me between 1-2 weeks with the water being soooo hard and it still doesn't taste as good as spring water.
Depends on why you are wanting filtered water; for me, my water tastes so metallic and is full of limescale, so any water is better than the crap that comes out of my taps! I now buy supermarket own brand water.
For 8 x 2l bottles (what we use in a week for three of us - squash, tea and coffee etc.) it costs:
Asda - £2.50
Sainsburys - £3.00
Aldi - £2.00 (I only but it there if I'm passing anyway as it's out of town and I don't generally shop there).
You can buy even bigger bottles a little cheaper, however, I like a bottle that will fit in the fridge and is easy to hold and pour from.
You can even get cheaper water, which is basically filtered tap water in a bottle, ie. supermarket branded blue stripe or smartprice water; even that is better than my own tap water!If happy little bluebirds fly, beyond the rainbow, why, oh why can't I?
