Rank #10 in Best Water Filter Jug 2026: 10 Ranked by Cost Per Litre
BRITA MAXTRA Glass Water Filter Jug with 3 Cartridges
Price and rating as shown on Amazon when we collected them. Both change.
The MAXTRA Glass is the only glass jug in this ranking, and the listing makes the material explicit: a borosilicate glass jug with a silicone sealing ring, supplied with three MAXTRA PRO ALL-IN-1 cartridges, at 830 grams, in light blue or white depending on the pack.
Glass is the answer to the objection most people have to filter jugs, which is storing drinking water in plastic. The listing quotes the included glass jug at 2.5 litres while the capacity field says 2.4 litres, the same rounding mismatch seen elsewhere in this category. At the time of collection it carried 4,594 ratings at 4.4 stars. Everything here comes from the Amazon listing rather than our own testing.

What buyers actually say
Quoted from customer reviews on Amazon
Verified purchase“Lovely and still working well. Easy to take apart for filter change. Be careful not to knock against your tap.”
Verified purchase“Bought this BRITA Glass Water Filter Jug because our coffee machine's built-in filter was about as useful as a chocolate teapot. Enter this majestic jug — sleek, glassy, and surprisingly fridge-friendly. I was expecting something the size of a medieval urn, but it actually fits right next to the milk like it belongs there. It’s only 2.5L, but somehow doesn't hog space like that one flatmate who spreads their hummus across three shelves.Now our coffee machine has stopped sulking, the water tastes like it was blessed by alpine monks, and we feel unnecessarily smug about our hydration choices. We use it exclusively to fill the machine, and I half expect it to start purring every time we do. Honestly, this jug is probably the most refined thing in our kitchen. It’s glass, so we feel classy. We’re not. But still.Highly recommend if you like your water filtered, your coffee smooth, and your fridge slightly more sophisticated than it was yesterday.”
