The classic filters are the original tapered cylindrical Brita filters.They present excellent value for money when purchased at this price in quantities of 6 - the purchase price at the time of writing this review was £14.The classic filter is recommended to be changed at least once monthly which is a reasonably accurate approximation for its lifespan. I filter a full jug (1.5 litres) water between 3 and 6 times daily and more regularly during weekends and I normally find a month or slightly less is the maximum duration to keep the filter before swapping for a new one. We live in an area where the water is particularly hard and filtering water is a necessity.

I have been previously buying supermarket versions of these because they were much cheaper. However, I was never sure that they were filtering properly because the fit was not quite correct. I discovered that if you choose carefully, you can buy 2 x 3 packs of the genuine Brita filter cartridges for about the same price as the supermarket 6 pack version and they fit perfectly and give much more confidence in their ability to filter. The pricing structure on the Amazon product page is ludicrous so you have to be very careful what you order. You could end up paying £5 more if you opt for a 6 pack!! For this reason I have only awarded 4 stars.

I don't usually buy items that receive poor reviews but made an exception with this bottle. To begin with I thought I had made a big mistake but was determined to solve the problem. Problem? Yes I just couldn't get the water to flow properly like a lot of the other reviewers said. I took out the filter and run it under cold water (I had previously soaked it as instructed) again. Still it didn't flow properly. I then removed the straw and hey presto it works! So basically if you buy this then run the filter under cold water for a minute and use without the inner straw. I'm now pleased with this item and can recommend it.

I have been using Brita filters for years and was particularly miffed when I needed to re-stock on cartridges and discovered they had changed the shape of the jug and therefore the filter. Typical - another instance of 'forcing' the customer to buy a complete new kit. There were some universal filters on the shelves which I tried and noticed very soon that the water wasn't tasting right. So I decided to take a look on Amazon on the off-chance that I could buy the old type filters, and there they were.I'm very pleased and hope that Amazon will be able to continue stocking them.

I've used these for some years. I don't know how they compare with the more modern 'Maxtra' filters, but the water quality seems to be pretty good, my kettle has developed the smallest amount of scale imaginable in over 15 years of usage, and the tea produced with the water is clear, clean, and delicious. Considering I live in North Norfolk, which has some of the highest lead levels (London Clay!), hard water, and nitrites, an almost essential investment. Biggest issue is the price in local shops. Highly recommended when you can get them at these prices!

These are good filters but I hope that when I need to open the first of the cartridge plastic container bags, the cartridge will be in a usable condition. In the past, some of them have not fitted the jug because of distortion (viz. not circular enough). Also, due to a lack of checking at Brita, a cartridge had to be returned a few years ago as it was leaking black (carbon?) powder. You never know, until the cartridge plastic container bag has been opened, what you will find. Not Amazon's fault, though.

These Brita water filters are great especially if you live in or happen to be in a place where the water taste isn't 100%I use these filters as I work overseas. Although I do get bottled water supplied from the company for whom I work for. It's a hot country where I work, and sometimes the company doesn't supply enough bottled water so I have to filter the tap water. The taste of the tap water isn't all that good, but after I put it through the Brita filters (twice) it is much more palatable.

These were very good although one of the cartridges was split and completely useless hence the 4 star. Compared to others these probably are the bench mark. They filter at a reasonably fast rate although this may not mean they remove impurities as good as others that are slower. These are generally well over priced but can be found cheaper sometimes, but maybe as in this case because one was broken. Wilko do a good cheap alternative

This product works great! I have a glass kettle which when I pour unfiltered tap water into, once boiled the water is reflected as very cloudy (probably the chemicals in the water causing this). But when I pour water into the kettle which has been filtered clean with 'Brita Classic Water Cartridges' once boiled the water remains very clear reflecting chemicals were removed beforehand by the water cartridges. Good buy.

Getting replacement cartridges for a Brita Classic Water Filter isn't easy as Brita's newer models use different sized filters. The other models tend to be thicker and won't easily fit in the door of my fridge so I continue to use the Bria Classic, which I have used for many years. As long as I can continue getting replacement filters for this model via Amazon I will do so.

Not much I can say about these - they are designed to fit the Brita Classic water filter and they do the job perfectly. I chose them because I know that they are the best for this water filter. The reason I bought them from Amazon is because they are so much cheaper than the high street shops. I have tried other brands but they are not as effective as the recommended brand.

I have had a Classic Water Filter Jug which my late husband purchased a few years ago.I did not want to up-grade to a newer version, but had problems finding replacement cartridges for my Classic jug.But - how do you clean the cartridges once they stop working efficiently?I thought the answer was to buy new replacement ones, hence this question?

I've tried the cheaper versions but always end up coming back to the BRITA as once I've fitted into the jug I never have any problems; with the generics there's either a little leak down the sides where it doesnt quite fit or it stops filtering and I have to rinse to get the bubbles out. These are currently fairly reasonable price at £7 for three.

This type of Brita cartridge is now difficult to purchase as the water filter model has changed, and the type of cartridg for it. I was delighted to find the older type of cartridge at Argos, and at a more resonable price than one or two of the other suppliers, including Brita. MY water filter is perfectly OK and is now in action thanks to Argos.

I like the person above live in Herefordshire. My tap water tastes disgusting and leaves a horrible aftertaste. I recently bought a Britta "Marella" paired with some of these filters. The result is amazing, no more horrible water taste! I would recommend the Britta and filters only if you have poor or satisfactory drinking water. A good buy.
