BerkeyBlack Replacement Filters & Fluoride Filters Combo Pack - Includes 2 Black Filters and 2 Fluoride Filters

I read some good and bad reviews on this product but, the fact that the seller was an authorized Berkey dealer reassured me of its authenticity so I took a chance. I did have a hard time with priming but that is not the fault of the company. I think its me honestly. Ha. I invested in this Set of 2 Berkey Authentic Black Berkey Elements (BB9-2) and 2 Berkey PF-2 Fluoride and Arsenic Reduction Elements - Combo Pack, its been a game-changer for my family's water quality. I never had the Fluoride and Arsenic Elements before and you can taste the difference. We had just recently moved to an area where the water is hard. If you are looking for it to remove the minerals it will not. You will just get a cleaner mineral taste. I do not believe that the Berkey system after doing a lot of research will remove the minerals. Just wanted to add that in because I know I read before purchasing on people who did not think the system is working. It is. It's if you have hard mineral water it does not take those minerals out. Overall, these filters are amazing. If you're looking to enhance the quality of your drinking water, I highly recommend considering the Berkey water filtration system. It's an investment in your health and well-being that's worth every drop.

Great product for a good price

They are exactly what’s advertised. Bought as refills. Came with primer piece and instructions and work perfectly.

Like that it’s the genuine Berkey filter replacement and got it quite quick!

Ok. Now I'm happy. Thanks to Amazon.com customers who answered my questions I learned that the alumina powder from the white fluoride/arsenic filters does not break down (as aluminum oxide does during lab testing) into aluminum atoms. Since this is an inert alumina (often used in ceramics and even in hip implants) it isn't absorbed was the feared aluminum that causes brain damage. A knowledgable customer told me that it even removes any naturally occurring aluminum from the water, making it even contain less. He provided a great link to the Big Berkley site discussing this alumina filter. But I felt better hearing from someone who isn't selling this product, then reading and understanding what Big Berkley meant in their article. I notice my water tastes different than the tap water, Pur filtered water,and reverse osmosis water that I was drinking. I do not know what accounts for the taste, but maybe it's the inside of the stainless steel which I rinsed out with dishwashing liquid that may gradually diminish more. But it is a very good sign that my cola liquid Steiva that I like to flavor water with tastes better and is more flavorful with this Big Berkley filtered water than with water from these other three filters. I am happy to know I am still getting minerals from my filtered tap water. Drinking reverse osmosis water had felt strange in my body and unhealthy somehow. I later learned reverse osmosis pulls out the minerals we need for life. So I will see, but think I will likely have a feeling of well being after drinking this water from my Big Berkley a while. We want our water to make us feel healthier and better (not cause osteopenia and other health affects from dangerous mineral loss). I'm very happy to have a Big Berkley and these filters now. No more chlorine (which hurts thyroid) and no more fluoride (which hardens and harms the pineal gland, the body's regulator). And no aluminum, which I had mistakenly feared these would add, exchanging one form of brain damage for another. I'm so glad I was wrong and just needed to hear from some of Amazon.com's customers who know more about this than I do, and to do my own research. These may be some of the best filters around. I'm so happy about that.
