I've owned a Berkey water filter for years, and I'm a big fan.
Earlier, I wrote the Berkey Water Filter Buyers Guide covering all six models and how to choose the right one. But since the Big Berkey is the most popular one, I thought it should get its own post.

I'll admit it. I'm partial to Berkey water filters. I've owned one for years, and I've been happy with it. It's the only brand of gravity water filter that I knew about when I bought it.
But then I came across Propur, a brand that's been giving Berkey a run for the money.

Several of my readers asked me about the AquaCera water filter in the comments on my review of the best countertop gravity water filters.
When I first wrote that review, I wasn't really familiar with AquaCera, but it was on my list of filters to check out.

Lead in drinking water is "one of the greatest environmental threats we face as a country."
So said Scott Pruitt, head of the EPA in early 2018.
He also said that the agency hopes to eliminate the problem in the next ten years, but apparently there is no plan in place to accomplish that goal. Hmm.
Are you concerned about lead in your drinking water?
If so, I have a suggestion for you. Don't wait around for the government to fix the problem for you. You might be waiting for a long, long time.
