1. Water draining speed: Water isn't supposed to go quickly through the filter; water needs to interact with granules of activated carbon to remove heavy metals, then pass through fibrous interface. (Fast water passage is sign of a poor quaity filter that's dried out and less granular) 2. WHy water filters slower when the level gets lower in reservoir Reason 1: The lower the water level in unfiltered reservoir- the less surface area the holes on filter have have, to act on water. Reason 2: you filled the pitcher 2nd time before the reservoir emptied from 1st filling, so the reservoir will not fully drain into filtered area, due to hydrostatic pressure that keeps the two separated volumes in balance (PREVENTS OVERFLOW IN FILTERED AREA) . Once you use the filtered water, more of the unfiltered reservoir will drain down. 3. Adding unfiltered tap water: You let water in through spout which went down into the filtered water . Defeats the whole purpose of filtering water.
The reason why it slows down when it gets to the green part is because there's an o. Ring. It might be a slow process, but you only gotta do it once son. They work fine. Why are you worried about the rinsing of the filter? It's not a big deal.
Bedtimes large amounts of the water will bypass the filter completely. Somehow i always in this case picture a washer being the solution 🤷♂️ as a note if it is all legit going through the filter itself I absolutely say the slower the better !

Thank you.
You're welcome!
The O ring does not keep water from coming down the side of the filter.
Nice double Dad's video
Thanks 👍
I bought one last month and it has a filter indicatior and water goes down very quickly.
What about the 40 cup water pitcher.

It's not like you're gonna be standing there. Watching the water trickle through every time you fill it, come on, man, get with the program.
Goes in faster than the refill
gravity is slower especially when submerged.
It doesn’t have a filter indicator on the blue water pitcher.
no
I can't find that Walmart pitcher filter any more
Might not be online. Go into store and you will find 2 different models
The water isn't going down no more at the side receptacle holes. They claim to be adaptable to Brita that's the pitcher I'm using
Tilted. Will lyk
Finally !! Just about emptied. Just heard: instructions said 15 minutes 🤨

Do have to throw the water out first time.
yes
