My point is bottled water (and water filtration systems) is not a con because it tastes better than tap water (in many places) and that has value to a lot of people.
100%, I don’t use wasteful bottles but my house has those large water jugs with a dispenser that we get refilled weekly and there is a very noticeable quality difference in taste (even noticeable when making fancy loose leaf tea).
People who say tap water is exactly the same aren’t being entirely honest. They do the same thing and a lot of people don’t care about how it tastes but plenty do and aren’t always hurting the environment.
I use an RO (reverse osmosis) and run that through alkaline filter and that is the gold standard for me I have not tasted better water, even evian or those expensive Zip systems.
I don’t recall how good Brita is but I imagine similar to Zip in that it will get rid of most of that chlorine taste and filter out a lot of particles which is a big improvement. If I were renting I would consider Brita for the convenience of nothing to install and no ugly unit.
I wouldn’t buy bottled water for home unless very low
on choices! Because it seems wasteful.
