PUR PLUS 30-Cup Water Filter Dispenser
Score: 78/100
Brita UltraMax White
Score: 74/100Rankings
The PUR PLUS 30-Cup Water Filter Dispenser is a large-capacity pitcher featuring 3-in-1 filtration technology certified to reduce lead and microplastics. It offers a slim design suitable for refrigerator storage and includes a pull-down spout for easy dispensing. While it effectively reduces over 20 contaminants, it does not filter microbes and requires frequent filter replacements.
The Brita UltraMax Large Water Dispenser with BritaPlus Filter offers a massive 27-cup capacity and slim design, making it ideal for high-volume households and offices. It effectively reduces chlorine and heavy metals, though the plastic construction feels less durable than premium alternatives. It is best suited for users who prioritize volume and fridge compatibility over premium build quality.
