  • The only reason I gave 4 stars is because the spigot leaks.
I LOVE my crown Berkey. It is just me and my hubby and we go through a lot water from drinking and cooking. I replaced the "leaky spigot" that came original to this Berkey by ordering a new one with the site glass.- All is well now.

  • Good Clean Fresh Water
Bought this to replace tap water. I don't trust the cleanliness of tap water with out some sort of filtration system. This is cheaper then adding a filtration system. Does a great job and has no bad taste to the water.

  • Very Good, Not Perfect
My old water distiler broke after 10 years of use. I wanted a replacement water purifier system that didn't use $60/mo. of electricity (HI elec rates). I chose the Crown Berkey. After 2 weeks of using the black charcoal filter, I decided that I didn't care for the taste. It's better than tap, but not as good as distilled. I purchased 4 7" white ceramic filters and now the water tastes better, but still not as good as distilled, but still good enough for me now. Cons: 1. Taste. Standard charcoal filters are not good enough for me. Ceramic is better, but adds cost. BTW I called Berkey customer service and they did have a bad batch of charcoal filters in April and May of 2011. They fixed the problem and to indicate the fix, new filters have a black grey (not just black) base color with ribbing/manufacturing marks. 2. Flow rate. Berkey claims that a Crown Berkey with 2 black filters has a "flow rate" of 6 gallons per hour. Misleading. Perhaps _initial_ flow "rate" is 6 gph, but it will take 6+ hours to filter 6 gallons. With the 4 7" white ceramic filter setup, the flow is much better, but still nowhere close to 6 gph. BTW, I called Berkey customer service and they gave instructions on how to clean the outside of the filter and prime it. These procedures helped but did not solve the flow rate problem completely. 3. Capacity. The Crown Berkey has a capacity of 6 gallons in the unfiltered section, but each filter you put in takes away roughly 1/4 a gallon of capacity. Thus a 2 filter system has a net capacity of 5.5 gallons and my 4 filter setup 5.0 gallons. 4. Taste. Yes, I'm picky. I've been drinking distilled water for 10 years and HI tap water tastes awful to me. If HI tap water is 2/5 stars, then charcoal Berkey is 3/5, ceramic Berkey is 4/5 and distilled is 5/5. 5. Size. The ideal placement of the Crown Berkey is 12" above the kitchen counter. This allows you to leave the valve open and fill up pitchers and gallon-sized containers. Filling it is a chore and requires the use of a stepladder and you carrying pitchers of tap water. Pros: A. Cost. The longevity of the filters make the Berkey system very cost-effective. B. Quality of Construction. The Berkey stainless steel materials are of very high quality. C. Quality of Water. I can see the minerals the filters trap when I clean them. It seems to be doing a good job. Conclusion: The Crown Berkey system is very good, but not perfect. ... show more

  • Filter priming tip
I’m very happy with this purchase- I did have sticker shock, but if it does what it says it does…I’m using it for everything: us drinking, cooking, the dogs, the plants, coffee and tea. We are very happy. Filter priming- first- for spending $1k on this, include the dang filter primer pump. But, I get it, you need to make as much money off the non “preppers”. Using a plastic water/soda bottle, drill a hole in the cap (1/8” is fine). Fill with tap water. Assemble the filter as directions state, but rather than put to the tap, put the bottle on and squeeze. You will see the filter “sweat” in seconds. Repeat for all filters. This was WAY easier than the “hold to the faucet”. That dumb way shot water everywhere and didn’t have the pressure to “sweat”. This tip should be include in the instructions- especially considering some of the other nonsense included. I like the filter. I like the flavor. I like the peace of mind. I don’t like the hype. Hope this helps. ... show more

  • Great product but cheap spigot
I would have given it a 5 stars, but the spigot is made of cheap plastic and did not stop leaking. I had to order a better quality spigot from a different vendor to install on this. It is unfortunate that for such a high quality product you would choose such a low quality spigot. Other than that, I am very satisfied with my purchase ... show more

  • Pure water- large capacity- gravity feed
The filtered water tastes very clean and pure. Although it is large and takes up vertical space (29.5" for the big Berkey), it's not unattractive. Do NOT overfill as the lower fill tank WILL leak if you do. You fill the upper tank (where filters set), in proportion to how much is in the lower tank. For the price, this should come WITH a gauge spigot (shows water level). We had to order one because our's is sitting atop a counter and a step stool is required to look inside to see water level. We placed the spigot over the sink for easy fill. The pour runs fast. The filters are easily 'primed' with the small rubber(?) washer. To prime: hold tightly between filter and the faucet and flush with a stream of water. Only takes seconds to make the filter 'sweat". The washer is provided. We like the gravity feed rather than electrical or battery operated systems. The big Berkey has capacity for 8 filters, but we only use 2 at a time and store a few more for future use. For now we are filtering water from a city well. But we do collect water and we'll use the Berkey to filter if needed. We'll update as the months go by. Update and tip: when refilling it may require re-priming/flushing the filters to speed-up water filtration. Also, since our Berkey is atop The counter, we are using the Berkey cover as a mirror to see the water level so we don't over-fill. ... show more
