Qualtex Compatible Brita Maxtra Water filter Cartridges (Pack of 12)

Dear seller: the product was good and the price reasonable but I was concerned that this filter didn't fit on the jug with a valve !!!! and no one mentioned this problem that's why I was using my old jug which does not have a valve !!!!! and I am still looking for a Breta filter suitable for the jug valve, which I don't find at all !!!!! I'm not complaining about your product but about the information you didn't mention ( this filter you can use it to the jug without a valve !!!! thanks

Make sure you look for the little adapter at the bottom of the pack - lots of people give bad reviews stating that this product does not work but seems that they are "missing the trick". Works fine - water tastes good. Good value for money - would recommend

Arrived on time, packed well: simple separate white plastic packages in one box, just without instructions; but as I've used these types of cartridges so many times now, I didn't need those. Looked a lot like the usual Brita Maxtra filter cartridges, definitely the right size, I've now inserted one in the filter jug and will see how long this cartridge will last me: normally the usual Brita Maxtra works perfectly for 2-2.5 weeks, and perhaps with medium level quality for 3 weeks, then I change it to a new one, so that my tea would taste well. If this one works that well, it would great.

Great product that works without any problem in my Brita water filter. Some reviews on here are negative and I initially thought the same, until I found the plastic “widget” in the packaging. Once I placed this in the bottom of the filter, it works a dream. I would buy again as much cheaper and does exactly the same thing with the “widget”!

Bought these for my Brita Maxtra, they are excellent, less than half the price of the "real thing". I had huge problems with a supplier when I ordered original Maxtra cartridges, they sent Maxtra + instead, they didn't work, useless, took a battle to get a full refund inc p&p. No problems with this supplier, cartridges fit my Maxtra and work very well. Will buy again, I always buy 12 cartridges, last at least 12mnths, more.

So I'm about to buy my 2nd 12 pack, having used these for the last 12 months I can confidently say we have no timescale in the kettle, no scum on the tea. Yes they filter slightly slower and are slightly different underneath but thats no hardship. I cant comment on what's inside the filter but I cant for the genuine Brita filters either!! We live in a very hard water area and I can tell the difference when the water has been filtered. I'm happy with quality and price.

I decided to buy in order to see myself why is so much cheaper. Below I have a comprehensive review on the item. Firstly to clarify I have used it for 2 months (2 cartridges). I will also compare it like for like with a Brita cartridge. No issues in the taste of the water filtered with the Qualtex. My tab water in general is good and normally I will also drink it directly from the tab with no issues. The flow of the Qualtex cartridge is somehow lower than the Brita one, in other words it takes longer to empty the top jag compartment. This is apparent when you see the comparison of the Brita and Qualtex from the picture. The Brita has more holes allowing the water to filter quicker. The Qualtex cartridges have no designation on them whatsoever, whilst the Brita has a full part number engraved on it. The wrapping is completely white whilst the Brita is full of information contacts and other designations (see picture examples of both). Brita is made in the UK, Qualtex is made in China. On the box of the Qualtex there is nothing at all in terms of certification, and no quality standards designation. This is quite worrying because it appears that Qualtex cartridge has not been tested for anything therefore no guaranty it is safe to use. Inside the cartridges the bids are also different. The mixture of the Qualtex is lighter overall in colour therefore there are more white bids than black ones. Britta has very few yellowish larger bids as well which I could not find in the Qualtex. Therefore the filtering mechanism is definitely not the same as Britta's. In general terms it looks like a poor copy in the naked eye with not Quality standards certifications or any kind of official designations. In conclusion you drink at your own risk. There is no apparent difference in the odour or taste of the filtered water coming out from the Qualtex therefore it does not appear to make the water worse, but I cannot see any evidences that is equally effective chemically as the Britta. I do not think it replaces Britta. It is significantly cheaper but for a clear reason. as far as compatibility with my refrigerator Britta compartment, no issues it fits well and it works fine. I would prefer to wait and try to buy Britta's again on offers.

We have 2 filter jugs and a filter kettle so get through a fair few of these! They are a very reasonable price and perform just as the branded ones do! My only very small negative is that the water does take quite a bit longer to filter through compared to the originals or other compatibles. Nevertheless, a great brew can't be rushed and I would recommend these filters.

Perfecto para jarra brita

Super

Ces cartouches sont parfaitement compatibles à ma carafe Brita. Chaque cartouche est utilisable mensuellement. Très bon rapport qualité/prix!

Ottimo rapporto qualità prezzo rispetto ad altri prodotti. Pratica la scatola e ottimo per avere una buona riserva di filtri in casa.

Los compré por el ahorro de precio y me están saliendo muy bien
