Great and Quick Countertop Water Filter
It's been great as a countertop water filter since we do not have one in our fridge or on the sink, especially when you need water fast and can't wait for the traditional brita. ours does have a slip drip to it after we use it, but not enough to make us give it up.

Good investment
We absolutely love this water filter! We use it constantly to fill our cups and the water for our baby’s bottles. It’s easy, good water, enough to fill up both our cups.

Amazing purchase
My fiancé and I drink water repeatedly. This thing has been running on the filter it comes with, for the past 5 months. It’s noisy though, but the craftsmanship and reliability, easily outweigh that.

Powerful standalone water filter system
** Update End of January 2025:My Brita Hub started to have some leakage issue. I replaced the cartridge and also checked all the accessible connections - and was not able to figure it out. Fortunately, the Brita support staff (Alayna and Lakyn) were extremely quick and helpful, and sent me a new replacement unit. I won't subtract any stars from my original review due to this outstanding customer support. Thank you.** Original review:I stumbled upon this filter system after looking for a more convenient way to get purified water. As someone who does not have a filtration system integrated into the faucet, nor a fridge, this was a very useful buy. Having instant filtered water is absolutely fantastic - we were always very jealous of the fridge-integrated solutions.The device itself is setup pretty easily with some customizations possible in terms of the water tank location. The filter snaps into place, making all these steps a breeze. The filtered water taste is nice, and the overall noise level is also not too bad (for the few seconds it takes to fill up a glass). There are only three buttons to dispense the water - from a 12oz and 20oz option, to a free-flow option where it dispenses water as long as the button is pressed. Having used all buttons, I think these were well chosen.Now, having had lots of experiences with previous (passive) water filters, such as Pur or Brita, I was hoping that this active pumping through the filter would extend the lifetime of the filter. Unfortunately I was wrong. The included filter is advertised for six months, but had to exchange it only after three months (May til August). Given the high pricepoint of these specialized filters, I found this rather disappointing. Our potable tapwater is already relatively clean, so I find it hard to believe that the filter are "bad".Having said that, overall, the advantage for our household of three is to have almost instantaneous, freshly filtered water - and its fantastic. While it does not chill (or heat up) the water, we are happy to have purchased this machine.Summarized, you should consider the following pros and cons:Pro:+ Instantaneous, filtered water though active water pumping through filter+ Can be located pretty much anywhere where it can be plugged in (thus highly portable)+ Relatively robust design+ Easy setup and somewhat nice-looking exterior+ Well-established brand (with its filter issues, see below)Cons:- The filter problem still exist - depending on usage and water quality, expect to exchange the filter far more frequently than advertised- There is some energy consumption compared to passive filtering- The buttons feel a bit cheap (plastic)- Overall price point is pretty high for a glorified water pumpOther considerations:~ No chilled, or heated water~ The water tank can be designed a bit larger~ Wetting and cleaning the filter for the first time after insertion takes a while~ Likely no filtration benefit over a fridge-or faucet-integrated systemGiven such a niche product, I would give this a 4 stars. We are happy about it, but mainly because we do not have an alternative (fridge filters, RO system) that we can use.

Water purification
Works great. Water tastes much better and knowing that the microplastics are being removed is a huge benefit. Highly recommended.

Britta Hub Countertop Dispenser in Action - Quick Demo & First Impressions
The media could not be loaded. First day with the Britta hub countertop water dispenser and I'm impressed - the water tastes amazing! Setup was mostly straightforward, though there was one hiccup worth mentioning for other buyers.When I first plugged it in, the pump made an unusual mild grinding noise. I later realized this was normal - it was just the pump trying to prime its lines and draw water through the new filter. During my first attempt, the unit stopped and displayed an "Add Water" light, despite the tank being full and properly inserted with the filter correctly installed.After reseating both the tank and filter, I tried again. This time, I let it run for about 15 seconds through the grinding sound. The noise then shifted to a rising whistle, and within moments, water began flowing - slowly at first, then quickly reaching a normal flow rate. After purging the tank twice, everything has worked perfectly.One suggestion for Britta: It would be helpful to include information about the initial priming process in the setup instructions. New users should know that some unusual sounds are normal at first, and that they may need to be patient during this initial setup phase. Even if they get an "Add Water" warning, simply reseating the components and trying again should resolve the issue - no pun intended!
