Soma10-Cup Water Filter Pitcher

I'm not sure why this product got so many negative reviews - my boyfriend and I love our Soma filter! We just moved into an apartment together and my boyfriend swore by Brita pitchers, but I came across this Soma pitcher instead and I'll admit that a huge reason for purchasing it was the design. It looks super sleek and matches our white kitchen and bamboo accents perfectly. It holds 10 cups of water, which is plenty for us two! I refill it after every use out of habit, but it's plenty enough so that it's not annoying if my boyfriend uses it and forgets to refill, you know?We're from NJ and we don't notice any extra chlorine taste or that our water tastes weird/off at all. We both think that this filter works great and gives us quality drinking water!I noticed a lot of the reviews were about mold build up around the top and the confusion about cleaning the pitcher. We've been using ours for about 3 weeks now, and I haven't noticed any type of mold buildup yet. But if you go on Soma's website, they have very helpful videos explaining how to clean your filter and especially detach that part that a lot of these reviews complain about! :)Overall, we're very happy with our Soma pitcher. For the price, function, and design - I'd highly recommend! Plus you don't have to replace the filter for 4 months..beautiful!!

same great pitcher, but handle design is more robust and better design attaching to plastic pitcher (see pics to compare old and new handle design).need to buy new one because the poor design of original model, which was about 4-5 years old....the base of handle where its attaches began to crack and started to break away, repaired with some flex tape and loctite glue, got an extra year out of it but crack reopened again....time for a new one.pleasant surprise with new handle design, glad they improved it....only negative difference from old one is when pouring with full amount of water filtered it tends to glug, glug, glug and splash a bit more when water leaves the spout, but might reduce over time. (FYI i dont use the lid, find it inconvenient when filling to capacity, so might be less glug with lid on).Also hope the white rubber seal around upper lip of cone doesn't discolor as bad as the old one did over time, despite frequent cleanings and attempts to remove discolor with bleach pastes like soft scrub.overall love the new pitcher, highly recommmend (especially at a used price under $40, which this one was, practically brand new), just wish it were glass instead of plastic like the smaller pitcher, maybe one day Soma will make it out of glass instead.

I absolutely love this pitcher. For over 13 years, I had a Soma water filter pitcher in my house. It was glass, and we went through that water fast because it was smaller, but good tasting. Just last week, after I ordered this one, the pitcher was left in the freezer it broke. Bittersweet, but a day or so later this one came in, and after setting it up it produced the same delicious water our older one did and more of us can drink it before we have to refill it. It doesn't leak or smell weird and I do plan on testing the water soon to see how good the water quality is. I will update it if necessary, but I am elated and pleased with our bigger pitcher.
