Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Big Berkey Water Filter System with 2 Black Berkey Filter Elements
Customer Review: Pure and precious-- stainless healthier than plastic
Summary: 5 Stars
It was a huge treasure to discover this in 2007. It gives water that's taste doesn't compare-- so good! Having the water filter slowly and thoroughly is great and sufficient compared to the fast speed through faucet filters.
The stainless is a much better option for your health~ please read below.
In November 2007, we decided to get stainless, since I had just found info about the Lexan plastic {which is polycarbonate, plastic number 7} which releases the chemical Bisphenol A (BPA):
*mimics the body's own hormones
*interferes with estrogen
*endocrine disruptor
A new study reveals that it also interferes with thyroid hormones.
I had decided to see what the Berkey's plastic was made from, since I had just researched and discovered what polycarbonate was and that my Starbuck's water bottle was made of it. I immediately got rid of the bottle. This was a few months before the polycarbonate - BPA warnings came out widespread in the news in early 2008. Excess estrogen-mimic is shown to cause miscarriages. I had drank much from it and highly suspect it being the cause of 2 miscarriages I had in 2007. I did not have/use the polycarbonate bottle in my pregnancies in 2005/2006 or 2008, and I carried these 2 babies full term.
Heart-breaking way to find that I do not want to trust anything derived or in contact with chemicals or food additives/fortifiers.
I'm so glad I'm drinking from this and aware. I've also read that plastic no. 1 {used for most water bottles} is found IN the water after months {I'm curious about even sooner}.
Also BPA is in lining of canned foods.
I wanted to share this.. blessings of health to you!
Description of Big Berkey Water Filter System with 2 Black Berkey Filter Elements
The versatile Big Berkey system is the ideal system for use at home with small or medium sized families, travel, outdoor activities or during unexpected emergencies. This powerful system purifies both treated water and untreated raw water from such sources as remote lakes, streams, stagnant ponds and water supplies in foreign countries, where regulations may be substandard at best. Perfect for everyday use, outdoor activities and a must in hostile environments where electricity, water pressure or treated water may not be available. The Big Berkey system removes pathogenic bacteria, cysts and parasites entirely and extracts harmful chemicals such as herbicides, pesticides, VOCs, organic solvents, radon 222 and trihalomethanes. It also reduces nitrates, nitrites and unhealthy minerals such as lead and mercury. This system is so powerful it can remove food coloring from water without removing the beneficial minerals your body needs. Virtually no other system can duplicate this performance. Constructed of highly polished 304 stainless steel, the system comes complete with two purification elements and utilizes the latest technological advances. This system has a storage capacity of about 2.25 gallons (8.5 liters) and when in use it stands 19.25" in height with a diameter of 8.5". The upper chamber nests within the lower chamber for transport and stands only 13" in height. Configured with two Black Berkey purification elements the system will purify up to 3 1/2 Gallons (13.3 liters) per hour.Undersink & Countertop Filtration Tools
