Filtered water tastes very clean and pure. While it's large and takes up vertical space (29.5 inches for a large Berkey), it's not without its appeal. DO NOT overfill or the bottom fill tank will leak. You fill the upper tank (where the filters are installed) in proportion to the amount in the lower tank. For the price it should come with a sensor tube (shows the water level). We had to order one because ours is on the counter and you need a stool to look inside to see the water level. We have installed a spout above the sink for easy filling. The pour flows quickly. The filters can be easily "refilled" with a small rubber disk (?). To refill: clamp firmly between the filter and the tap and rinse under the running water, it only takes a few seconds for the filter to "sweat". Washing machine available. We like gravity over electric or battery systems. The big Berkey has a capacity for 8 filters, but we only use 2 at a time and keep a few more for later. Filtering water from the city well. But we do collect water and will use Berkey to filter if necessary. We will update over the months. Update & Tip: When refilling, the filters may need to be refilled/flushed to speed up water filtration. Since our Berkey is on the counter, we use the Berkey lid as a mirror to see the water level so we don't overfill it.
