...and my only regret is not doing it much, MUCH sooner. After probably thou$ands in "Fiji" and mountains of empties over the years (recycled, of course...but still) I feel like a dope.
The "smart" pitcher with two filters (about 4 + months worth of water) was on sale at Costco for like $25 bucks, so we bought one for the office and one for home. You'll save HUGE dough, the water tastes GREAT, it's super fast with an "unlimited supply" so you can use it for everything, and best of all--no more empties.
I know we did the water thread recently and a lot of you have this and have had for years (props to you! ), but just wanted to chime back in and spread the Brita gospel for those who are still buying bottled.
Silver faucet mount Brita here.
I'll never miss carrying cases of water upstairs and bags of empties back down again.
It would be fair to say I'm a really just a lazy penny-pincher rather than a hippy treehugger(lol).

Hey m&m, how many months can you get from one tap filter--and how do you know when to replace it?

FIGHT THE POWER!!!!
The thing is idiot-proof.
It's got a light that blinks green about a second after turn the faucet on.
The faucet mount Brita has a switching lever on it.
You can choose "Brontosaurus Tap water regular flow" or "Terrradactyl Tap water spray flow" or "Brita filtered water".
The green light, I guess, will turn red when all of the charcoal/unicorn hair filter needs changing.
Like I said, I got silver, because it's a big thing attached to you faucet and could be an eyesore. Siver matches the faucet and stainless sink I have...also it could get in the way of washing dishes...I only wash shot glasses and cashmere bikinis in my sink so it doesn't get in my way.
Now that the plumber is going to replace the broken-off(I didn't do it) shut off valve under my kitchen sink, I am going to seriously consider an undercounter water filter...but for now, the Brita will do.
The real trick will be finding a shower filter that doesn't take all of my water pressure away.
The water in downtown LA is sulpher-y and I'd like to not have to smell it...ever.
**I was kidding about the shot glasses and bikinis...the unicorn hair is real, though.

Gotcha. Thanks.

Now that I re-read my answer. I see that I didn't actually answer your question.
The green light should last 6 months give or take.
It's just me and my 12.8 lb Miniature Pinscher in my place so I expect the filter to last a while.
I get the feeling you may have many minions, followers, groupies and/or bodyguards at your beck and call so you may have to change the filter more often than I do.

Finally made the jump to Brita....
