Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons

Pros

The berkey gives good clean tasting water. Helps us drink clean water without the expense & environmental impact of bottled when away from home. I use it for car camping, road trips, have used it when staying in hotels with water that wasn't tasty...  Read More

The stainless steel is exceptionally well built and performs flawlessly. I like the go berkey because it will fit in my refrigerator.

The berkey go kit is the perfect combo for traveling. It is quite usable for one or two people while traveling - or even at home! It has a padded travel case to protect it.

I could have done without the travel bottle and had the price be a few bucks less.

Packaging/appearance

I put a 1-liter carafe (the kind you see at every italian restaurant) next to my go-berkey and then just empty the container in...  Read More

Competitiveness
