- Опубликовано: 17 окт 2024
- I cut open a Brita Standard 2 month filter and compare it to a 6 month Long Last Brita Water filter. I show you the inside of each water filter. Do they have the same water flow rate. what is different about the filters. do they filter the same chemicals? Is the charcoal the same. Is it cheaper to use a long last filter or a standard Brita Filter.

This is exactly the video I needed! The different filter mechanisms are fascinating... Definitely going to go with the LongLast filter too.
Great to hear!
bless you for taking the price hit ($20) and cutting them open. definitely interesting to see the insides
It would have been nice if you tested the tap water and the filtered waters with a water tester to see which was better. Thanks.
Was looking for a clear comparison and this did the job. Thanks for the video.
Glad it was helpful!
I like the way you think sir "LETS CUT EM OPEN" 😂 Great review!
The standard filter has activated charcoal which is used to filter the water. You should think about using the standard when you add the DIY which allows you to reuse the same filter continuously just by replacing the activated charcoal which you can't do with the elite. Price changes to $1.50 for the standard vs $15 for the elite. Just a thought
Thank you for sharing this. Good to know. Do you have any idea about the chemical test for the filted water through two different filter? specially when 6months and 2 months. Thank you!
I love your in depth reviews and descriptions of all features available for various models of frequently purchased consumer products. Your analysis is very informative. I turned to you when deciding on the perfect coffee maker to suit my needs. Thanks to you I finally have a coffee maker that is perfect for my needs! I hope you decide to study the coffee hot plates on the market. There are many for sale, each with different features. Just reading the descriptions of these mini hot plates, makes choosing one confusing. I purchased one. It certainly provides a hotter beverage than what I'd be drinking without such a device. But overall I'm not satisfied. I wish I knew exactly what all the others can do, because I really wish I had something different/better. Thank-you.
Thank you so much for you very kind words and support. I will look into hot plates. Have you tried the battery power mugs, I tried the one from Walmart and it worked surprising well. ruclips.net/video/cMwPXghIiok/видео.html
@@JustADad This battery power mug is certainly an option to consider. Thanks for making me aware of this video you made. I missed it when browsing through your collection of reviews.
Thank you so much Sir, It's a very valuable comparison.
I can wait longer if water is cleaner, and i may not care whats in it as long as water is cleaner too. Im wondering what’s IN the water after all (and whats gone)
Love your instructions. Very helpful. Also you always have the "LOGIC"; just like when you showed us how to descale the Kuerigs. Keep on keeping on "Dad".
Awesome, thank you!
I have an older white Brita pitcher the one with the white lid it’s about two years old but I bought the elite filter and I noticed it doesn’t filter slowly it filters rather quickly. I wish you would do a video comparing how well the filter filters through an older picture style or a different Brita style
I just watched a video where a guy did a very comprehensive test of multiple water filter pitchers.
The waterdrop scored a 92. The Brita got an 82.
I think the brita he used had the older style filter.
I'm looking for the WaterDrop 20 cup. It removes more than the Brita and doesn't add anything to the water. Apparently the Brita can add trace amounts of sodium and silver, even after a gallon was flushed through the filter.
I plan to use it to filter my bottled water. May try tap eventually.
I've recently been reading about the benefits off distilled water. But I don't think storing it in cheap plastic jugs on a grocery store shelf is optional.
Anyway, thanks for the information
Thank you for taking the time to do these videos. I need all the help I can get. I'm subscribing to your channel since I have no one to help me
Thanks for subbing! Let me know if I can help with anything!
Thank you for making this video, i just bought the elite one.
Glad I could help!
Thanks for the video! Saw the "Brita Elite" 6 month filter in the store and was curious to learn more. Do you have any updates on how the Long Last filter is holding up so far? Would be interested to know if it lasts the full 6 months.
Yes it has lasted and I did not notice any slow down of the water flow.
@@JustADad Good to know! And is it tasting just as fresh as day 1?
@@ashwanibhola3766 Yes
my 6 month one became slower after 2 month and now it is almost reach my limit after 4 month. Or might be I got a faulty one.
6 months is just an estimate based on average use. Brita says it lasts 120 gallons, so measuring the gallons is more accurate. If you drink 1 gallon per day, it will last 4 months. If you drink only 1/2 gallon per day, you can get 8 months out of it. 6 months puts you right in the middle.
Thanks for this review! This is just what I wanted to see. I'm surprised the flow rates are nearly the same. And I didn't think about the time and energy of changing filters. My mind is made up - I'm goinf with the longlast version.
I have the Elite one and it already slowed down a ton after like 7 refills, the shaking isn’t really working :(
Just got my brita XL with a long lasting filter hope it works well!
Nice video you just got a new subscription. Just picked up the Longlasting plus 10 cup at Sams includes two filters for $27.99 USD. Does the regular filter fit in it also? Asking because I’ve been buying Costco filters with good results and saving $.
Thanks for the sub! yeah they should fit in just fine.
Since they are different length. Can the new LongLast+ filter fit into the older style regular pitcher design for the regular filter?
Will the longlast fit in the other pitcher?
I like to change mine every month with the $5 filterss.Then I always clean it thoroughly, the whole machine.I dont have the pitcher I have the regular
I've been buying Brita filters for two Ultramax pitches since 2000 or 2001👍👍. I finally decided to buy an Elite today🤘🤘. The Elite filter def❗️nitely look cooler. Setting them up is a
sl!ght pain. I let Hot water sit in mine for a while and repeat. I've never cleaned it with dish soap or vinegar. I don't like how the Elite filters do n⭕️t remove copper. The top of my Ultramax is stained with this yellowish/brownish colour; and I'm sure it's from copper.
Always a great review.
I appreciate that
@@JustADad Trying to decide between the Brita and the Waterdrop brands.
Is the pitcher a Brita pitcher for the long last one ? It looks different then what I can find online .
This is the Walmart version of a Brita Filter Pitcher
@@JustADad so not the original brita, just a copycat? No wonder the real brita filter isn't working in mine. 🤔
Can you use longlast filters in a normal white lid pitcher?
yes
I am getting a brita filter for my room because my family buys bottled water and I hate when the bottled water runs out and I’m just so thirsty and also want to help the planet a bit😃
Do you think the long-lasting better buy?
The math works out the be the same cost, the only thing is you don't have to change the filter that often
Folks, watch "Dad's" videos on in Keurig coffee pod machines, descaling. Very thorough. 😊
Thanks so much
Thank you!
You're welcome!
Sure would have liked to see answers to the comments as to whether the new 'fat, side drip long last filter will fit into a standard Brita pitcher. I checked all the comments - no answers to any of the questions. Shame.
In theory, long last should be the better value, since it claims it can filter 120 gallons in 6 months and 40 gallons in 2 months for the regular filter.
Save more and waste less plastic. I’m a long Brita user and haven’t switched to other brand. And I absolutely hate the green algae growing in every Brita pitcher I owned!
Today I will switch to Larq UV light water pitcher which is a little more expensive than Brita. The advanced filters claim to filter more impurities and other chemicals and plus it has UV light sanitation to eliminate germs and bacteria in water. It can kill the buildup of green slimy algae that can be found at the bottom of every Brita filter pitcher if wasn’t clean regularly. But i notice, when I do a deep cleaning of the pitcher, the green substance still came back in a day or two after pouring the water into the pitcher. The algae is really irritating so I will see Larq will have me convert to their filter system!
The Brita Elite filter only lasts 2 months for me. Amber it’s bad water quality.
Can you use a brita long last filter in any pitcher?
yes
@@JustADad why isn't it working in my big 18 cup filter then? I put it in correctly but the design looks way different than the original, doesn't even match the ad I saw on it. But it does say "brita" on mine. & it doesn't go all the way to the cross/+ thing on the bottom of the filter tube, only 2/3's of the way. It just runs right through like pouring water in a cup the regular way instead of slowly dripping. Takes only about 2 minutes when it should take at least 10 minutes to an hour.
@@HelloHello-hk4sx Sounds like you installed the filter incorrectly. Make sure the long slit in the side of the filter is properly lined up with the indexing pin moulded into the housing
the blues cost em about 2 bucks and the white one is about 50c. 🤷♂
I thought this video was going to have one of those meters that shows you how much crap is inside.
hahaha $5 for a filter, they're $9 here if you get a discount!
No one talks about how to Remove the filter!!! Crazy..
it lifts straight up to remove the filter, thanks for watching
It pulls straight out ya bellend
Hard to setup? Dude are you kidding me? All credibility was lost.
I don’t what he meant ‘hard to setup’ you just need to insert snugly in the hole. Presto, it’s in!
