" ... What a difference with the filter from bottled water. ... "
" ... We love our Soma Water pitcher. ... "
" ... I LOVE my Soma water filter. ... The water tastes better than our old Brita and it is beautifully designed. ... Best of all, we love knowing that Soma uses a portion of their profits to support charity water and clean drinking water for people in the developing world. ... "
" ... Took me a couple of months to decide on it, because I’ve been a bottled-water consumer for years. ... I’d never believe the water I just drank came from the kitchen sink. ... "
" ... The shape allows it to take up less room in the refrigerator and it seems to improve the water considerable. ... "
" ... I really love this water pitcher. ... The water tastes great and it pours easily. ... "
" ... Makes my water taste delicious! ... Holds lots of water and is attractive enough to stay on the counter. ... "
" ... One of my favorite parts is how the water gets poured in at the top and the water can flow right in. ... "

" ... The wood handle and glass design are very appealing. ... "
" ... wish the carafe was a bit larger but great design ... "
" ... Happy I bought it, looks nicer than the britta. ... "
" ... Pleasing to look at but bigger than and heavier than I expected. ... "
" ... But the design of the pitcher is beautiful. ... "
" ... Very Nice looking. ... "
" ... The white, clear design is aesthetically pleasing and makes it looks "small" on the counter as well. ... "

" ... The works best if the water level stays below the filter cone. ... "
" ... I like the eco-friendly nature of this filter and how it replaces bottled water for me and my husband :) ... "
" ... It's a clean crisp taste instead of the heavy chlorine from tap water. ... "
" ... It was the best water I’d ever had. ... Immediately I had drinkable water! ... "
" ... Love the design of this water filter and the water tastes great. ... "
" ... The tap water here tastes terrible and now I can drink endless water every day! ... "
" ... I LOVE my Soma water filter. ... "
" ... I'm glad I went with the soma water filter system. ... "
Cleaning

-52%
" ... I got mold that I can't clean as you can't properly open it. ... "
" ... Constantly clogs due to trapped air bubbles even after precisely following the setup and troubleshooting instructions by the manufacturer. ... I am spending far too much time on squeezing out trapped air bubbles several times a day. ... "
" ... I love the look of this filter but unfortunately it is not a great carafe, it spills every time you pour it, I like the way it fills better than some of the other pitcher water filters but its not user friendly otherwise. ... "
" ... The filter that came with it was either broken or dirty because there were black spots on it and on the bag it comes with. ... "
" ... It’s very frustrating and messy! ... "
" ... Tried a new filter and also cleaned it and the water drip is so slow it takes Ann hour or so to fill up. ... "
" ... Even still, pieces of carbon get through into the water which kinda nullifies the point of having a filter to produce clean water. ... "
" ... Mold builds up quickly around rim where you can’t easily detach and clean, as seen in pictures. ... "

" ... After just 2 months I noticed mold growing inside the bottom of the pitch. ... "
" ... Overall construction looks cheap, and the worst thing that it was send to me used, with signs of evaporated water, etc. ... "
" ... So why would they put and ugly sticker on the bottom that leaves sticky glue that is nearly impossible to get off? ... as soon as it inevitably gets wet, it raises the grain (as it is unfinished) making it nasty to hold onto and has splinters. ... "
" ... First pitcher’s top broke within weeks of purchase. ... Second purchase arrived with handle completely broken off. ... "
" ... I wanted to like this product for its commitment to charity and sustainability but the handle came in cracked and all around feels cheap. ... "
" ... The handle Broke the 2nd day we used it. ... "
" ... Handle became a bit loose after only a couple weeks. ... "
" ... Received this today in the mail, opened it up to use it and noticed the handle was cracked . ... it’s a small crack in the bamboo but if it is cracked now there is obviously a flaw in the product. ... "

" ... Don't have to remove lid (lid door opens for easy filling) so much better than Brita! ... "
" ... The pitcher is well constructed and I anticipate that it will be with us for years to come. ... "
" ... But I love my Soma pitchers and filters. ... "
" ... The Brita was an eyesore that we hid in the fridge, our Soma filter looks so nice that we leave it out on the kitchen counter and use it for dinner parties. ... "
" ... Can't say enough good things about the Soma pitcher. ... "
" ... The more oval body (versus completely round) helps fit it into a full fridge. ... "
" ... I love my soma pitcher! ... Holds lots of water and is attractive enough to stay on the counter. ... "
" ... I love my Soma pitcher! ... "

" ... I use my pitcher for 4 months, and super disappointed. ... "
" ... Handle became a bit loose after only a couple weeks. ... "
" ... After just 2 months I noticed mold growing inside the bottom of the pitch. ... "
" ... I've had two in the last three years, and this one is NOT the same. ... "
" ... Filter stopped working after 3 days. ... "
" ... I've had to stop using this pitcher after only using it intermittently for two months (it stayed in the box for over a month). ... "
" ... With in a couple months there was mold on the bottoms and I was unable to separate it and get to the very bottom to clean it. ... "
" ... The first one only lasted about 18 months, then the handle just cracked off. ... I probably won't get another if this one doesn't last any longer than that. ... "

Fit

" ... And in case that weren’t frustrating enough on its own, the spout pour will hold back water and then gush it out all over the glass and surface your pouring into. ... "
" ... Doesn't fit under sink (which does has a PUR filter on it so it does make it a little harder) when I pour so I have to put the water from the sink in a glass and then pour it in to the carafe ... "
" ... I tried to scrub the black out but it just won't budge. ... "
" ... So why would they put and ugly sticker on the bottom that leaves sticky glue that is nearly impossible to get off? ... "
