Know before you buy
Identical safety credentials to PUR Plus (NSF 42+53+401) with a faster 0.60 GPM flow rate, but at $0.3388/gal it is the most expensive faucet filter per gallon in this comparison.
You need the full NSF 42+53+401 certification stack with PFAS lab evidence AND want the best flow rate experience (0.60 GPM) in the category.

Daily filtered-water friction bothers you — Brita's faster flow rate noticeably reduces fill time compared to PUR Plus.
You trust the Brita brand and want NSF 53-certified lead and DBP protection with IAPMO R&T co-certification for added confidence.
You're cost-conscious on filter operating expenses — at $0.3388/gal, Brita Complete is the priciest option here, and PUR Plus delivers the same safety at $0.27/gal.
You have a pull-out, pull-down, or sensor faucet — like all products in this category, Brita Complete is incompatible with non-standard faucets.
