Creating a Kitchen Pharmacy: The Benefits of Good Water

Last Updated on January 8, 2019 by Andrea

Creating a Kitchen Pharmacy: The Benefits of Good Water

We all know that water is foundational for our good health and survival — nothing can replace it.

However, these days it seems like everywhere you look headlines like this appear…

  • Fluoride and infants – Why parents are not being told about fluorosis
  • Most bottled waters are glorified tap water
  • Bottled Water is hazardous to you and our world

…and obtaining wholesome drinking water seems near impossible.

As we work to prepare our kitchen pharmacies this month, it’s important to understand that the water coming from our faucets — the water we need to make herbal teas, infusions, and baths — more than likely contains floride, chlorine, high levels of harmful bacteria, heavy metals, and tons of other unwanted contaminants.

Sometimes, it’s these very contaminants that give our drinking water a variety of unpleasant tastes and smells. Bottled water can even contain similar contaminants…not to mention it’s super expensive and wasteful.

A Solution

I wish we all had access to a pure water spring — wouldn’t that be awesome! But more than likely most of us are at the mercy of some sort of water service. What are we to do?

Creating a Kitchen Pharmacy: The Benefits of Good Water ~ And a Giveaway for You

My family has been blessed by a gift of the Berkey Light water system and I couldn’t be more thrilled. For a while now, I have been dreaming of owning a Berkey — because based on the research I think it’s the best available. All we used previously was a standard little water filter, and I just didn’t trust it’s ability to totally clean our water…nonetheless, it’s what we had.

Benefits of a Berkey 

Creating a Kitchen Pharmacy: The Benefits of Good Water ~ And a Giveaway for You

  • Made in the U.S.A.
  • It holds 2.75 gallons.
  • The water tastes great…so clean!
  • No electricity is required in order for the filter to work.
  • It provides simple, reliable water purification right on the kitchen countertop!
  • Removes all the bad stuff and leaves some of the good minerals needed for good health.
  • The filters last to purify 6,000 gallons of water.
  • It’s super easy to transport. Being made of a safe and durable Lexan, the same material they use to make bullet proof glass, the Berkey is very light. Perfect when taken camping or used in an emergency situation.
  • It makes it easy for children to pour their own water, and all I can say is that we are drinking a lot more water!
  • For those of us on city water, this water filtration system is a great way to get rid of the toxins, chemicals, and dead bacteria found in the water; and those with well water will find it filters out excess minerals removing odors and poor taste.

Unfortunately the Berkey is a bit expensive upfront ($231). However, the long lasting filters and quality that it produces makes it a worthwhile investment. I figure it equals out to be about $0.50-$0.60 per gallon.

    Filtering out all the horrible stuff in our water- especially fluoride as I have fluorosis and thyroid problems.

    • Jim says

      Love fresh clean water….. start with the best.

      • Jessica says

        Good clean water is a blessing and I am thankful that we in this country at least get to enter for contests like these, no matter who wins I loved learning about this product and will save my pennie sot earn one if I can’t win it! Good luck to all!!!!

  2. Drisanna says

    Good clean water!!!! The water in this area is terrible what a great product!

  3. Andrea says

    I was just doing research about Berkey yesterday. There are a few other of their products that I would like to purchase. This is a great way to try one and if we like it, we will get the others. My husband and I are planning to start a family and clean water is so important to us. Thanks so much for this opportunity!

  4. [email protected] says

    Thanks for such a wonderful giveaway. We are currently using a small filter and I have been wanting something better.

  5. Holly says

    What a great opportunity! We have been trying to figure out what the best solution would be for our less than stellar water.

  6. Linda says

    Wow, this is awesome. Our family has been hit with a myriad of health problem of late and I am doing my very best to yank them to a healthier lifestyle which includes more water. This would be an amazing gift to win to help us all move towards the right path!!! Thanks for the opportunity!

  7. Cheryl says

    A Berkey filter has been on my list forever. I have read nothing but great reviews of all their products. I like, too, that they have the fluoride filter to help remove those nasty bits from the water, too.

  8. April says

    I really really really would love one of these.

  9. April says

    Getting rid of all the contaminents that are in our water. I have a small pitcher filter but I am not sure how well it works and it takes alot of time to get enough water.

  10. shellee says

    No electricity required!!

  11. Patti Johnson says

    What excites you the most about owning a Berkey? Oh, to be able to ensure I was providing my family the best possible water would be terrific! Our water tastes delicious as it is. I’m very lucky to live where I live in Lawrence, Kansas. However, the added security of having the Berkey do its filtering miracle would be such a wonderful gift. Water is what my family drinks as our main beverage of choice! 🙂

  12. Lara says

    Clean water is so important. I would love to win this as I currently just use a standard store bought water filter. Thanks!

  13. Patti says

    We currently filter our water through our refrigerator. I filter our water for our dogs and chickens as well. I new a gentleman who was a scientist and believed his dog got cancer from their water, also a young man who died of cancer traced back to toxic well water. Scarey stuff. We currently have city water and at times, you can smell the chlorine when you run the water. A friend in the same town, has well water that tested for high amounts of radon. They put in an expensive reverse osmosis system, but I still won’t drink their water. I too would love to own a Berkey. It’s been on my wish list for a while.

  14. Lynne says

    I’d love the filter. While our water here is deemed to be of a high standard in purity etc…. I have learned, sadly, not to trust anything the big corporations state. I want to take as much personal responsibility as I can to ensure that my family ge the best they can on our limited resources. A filter like this would be way out of my league normally, but oh my, what an opportunity. Who could resist trying? Green blessings to all /I\

  15. Leslie Birmingham says

    Clean water is so important. The more I read about nutrition the more I learn about the importance of drinking water, clean water. I just always trusted the tap, wrong.

  16. Carolyn @ The Mobile-Homemaker says

    We’ve been looking at these! Would be great to get one!

  17. tracy says

    We have another brand of filter system for the fridge but this one sounds like it would do a much better job. We thankfully have well water without all the stuff they put in the city water. But it would be nice to know all the harmful stuff is removed.

  18. Linda Douglas says

    We reviewed the 6 gallon Berkey on our blog. Everyone we’ve talked to says it’s great!

    http://www.theratracelosers.com/2012/03/water-purification-from-yuck-to-yum.html

    Linda aka Ratwife

  19. Nettie Romine says

    Ive been reading about Berkey’s on Bulk Herb Store. We now have our own well water on our farm. We have hard water. Do you recommend it for this? Love to win this!

  20. Dianna Brady says

    I would love to own a Berkley, and not have to make weekly trips to the grocery store for water! We are given a disclosure every month from our water department telling us the many things they are over the standard regulations on in our water supply. We don’t even drink our city water and haven’t for years.

  21. Wanda says

    The water here is so unpleasant. Large amounts of chlorine are used at the water treatment facility and the faint odor of bleach is always there. Right now I use a small pitcher filter, and a better alternative would be really wonderful.

  22. Amanda Ryals says

    I would love to know my water is completely safe and clean.

  23. Claire A. says

    I would love to have one of these! I hate the extra stuff in our water.

  24. shana says

    This is a great post! We already drink a lot of water each day either via the well or bottle (I know, I know). We would be super excited to win a Berkey – thank you for having this giveaway! 🙂

  25. Terrie says

    I have wanted one for so long. Thanks for all you do! My daughter and I go through a gallon or more a day, just drinking, so this would be a blessing!

  26. Candace Guidry says

    I had never heard of a Berkley and now I definitely want one! Our water is filled with so much chlorine that it smells like bleach coming out of the faucet. Couple that with regular “boil” orders because of breaches in the system and a Berkley may be the answer we’ve been looking for.

  27. Adrienne @ Whole New Mom says

    The portability and having a great filtration system to remove most contaminants.

  28. Lisa says

    Although we are blessed to have pure, delicious well water, and really aren’t in need of a water filtering system, I would love to win this so that I could gift it to my son and daughter-in-law who are looking forward to starting a family. Fresh, clean water — wouldn’t that be a fabulous gift? Thanks so much for the opportunity! ~Lisa

  29. Monica says

    I would love to have a Berkley for my family!

  30. meghann says

    I’ve been wanting one of these forever! OK, not *forever* but since I first heard of them, for sure.

    I love the idea of having clean, fresh water readily available for my kids whenever they want it. xo

  31. Heather says

    Having clean, safe water in any situation will be great!

  32. Lauren E says

    Hi! i would love to have one of these. i already follow you on facebook too!

  33. Crystal F. says

    A Berkey is at the top of my “need” list. Our water is terrible. 🙁

  34. Sarah @ Nature's Nurture says

    Wow, I’ve been wanting one of these since I first heard about them about 4 years ago! I would love to be able to easily and safely filter out the nasties like fluoride and chlorine. And I love that it uses no electricity!

  35. Lauren E says

    oh, and I wonder, you wouldnt have to worry about chlorine in the water with this, correct? we dont have flouride in our water, thankfully, but we do have chlorine. Right now, I have to leave a pitcher of water on my counter to evaporate it all out.

  36. Susanne says

    As we continue to tweak our home and habits, I’ve been wanting to filter our water. Using less energy is one of our goals, so I love that the Berkey doesn’t use electricity.

  37. Carole RB says

    What excites me more? Having pure water to drink, I can’t drink the tap water in my house! Thanks a bunch for the opportunity to win one!

  38. Cyndi says

    Love that this needs no electricity and is portable!

  39. Margaret D says

    Clean good tasting water.

  40. Sandy says

    What peace of mind this would give you! Good clean water!!

  41. Shannon says

    So funny! My husband just found this filtration system a few months ago for us. We haven’t purchased it yet but we need something better than our britta and it balances out compared to filter changes.

  42. Stephanie says

    I sooooo want this. Thanks for offering!

  43. Sheri Graham says

    What excites me the most is knowing that my family will be drinking GOOD water! We have an under the sink filter that I’m sure makes our water a little better, but the Berkley will be SO much better. I love that it is not huge and is portable. Love it! Thanks for doing the giveaway!

  44. K M Duff says

    I am a big fan of water filtering. I not heard of the Berkey before, but it sounds great!

  45. jenny says

    amazing never heard of this until now!! Thank you for the post.

  46. Colleen says

    This is amazing!! I have well water so I’m not too concerned about Fluoride in my water but I am concerned about what else is lurking in it!!

  47. Sandra says

    This would be so wonderful to win! To know that my family is drinking safer water would put my mind at ease. 🙂

  48. Lauren says

    I am so excited about this giveaway! My husband is in school for environmental science and he has showed me so many acticles of the toxins and metals in our public water system. Think about all the prescription drugs that are washed down the drain or crushed down the toilet!!

    Can’t wait to see who wins!! Good luck to all:)

  49. Janie says

    We have been looking at the Berkley and planning for one. Winning one would be the greatest!

  50. Ronnie Condron says

    We used filtered water alot. I like the idea that this is a non electric filter!

  51. Heather says

    I think having really good water so readily available would do wonders to up my family’s water intake! 🙂

  52. Andrew Cooper says

    I had never heard of the Berkey Light Water System until now. It sounds like a great product and could provide my family and I the opportunity for better tasting and safer water. Thank you for providing one to giveaway.

  53. Jen says

    I have been really thinking about getting a Berkey – especially after reading how much Atrazine and other nasty pollutants are in the water here where I live. That is crazy scarey! It is great to know that there is something out there that could help the water in my area. Thanks for the post!

  54. Heather T says

    This is the first time i’ve heard of this system and it sounds fantastic! What an awesome way to stop spending money on the Culligan guy delivering me 5 gallon jugs of water at a time!

  55. Susan says

    I would really love this, been buying bottled mineral water since I have crappy tap city water and would love a better way

  56. Melissa says

    The quality of our water is very poor, this would be a wonderful addition to our kitchen!

  57. Holly R says

    I would love to own a Berkey and know that I am safe drinking water that isn’t going to make me sick!

  58. Christina A says

    I’ve always been concerned about chemicals and flouride in our water. The flouride in our city water gives me flourosis issues and we just lug 5 gallons bottles from the grocery. The Berkey would be soooo much more convenient and it is a real need for our family!

  59. Emmy says

    This looks like an awesome system! Maybe it would make me drink more water like I already should be doing!

  60. Monna says

    We were just researching these this week! Much more cost effective and clean than bottled water. Great giveaway – thanks!

  61. Keli Martin says

    I’ve been wanting one of these for about 6 months now! *fingers crossed*

  62. Ca says

    This is a wonderful give a way!!! We currently take our gallon jugs to a carbon filtered ( and a few other filters) pay by the gallon spot each week. It would be amazing not to heft those each week.
    Thanks for this offer.

  63. Deanne C. says

    WOW! I’ve been looking these past few months to try and find a new water filtration system (not being confident in my small refrigerator version, either!) and VOILA! Here is my favorite blogger sharing her wisdom with us once again!! Thank you, Andrea!! To actually have the chance to WIN ONE…well, that’s just a big ol’ bonus! 🙂

  64. Jenni Rusow says

    Thank you for the great giveaway!! I’d love to win this one!

  65. Donna Kohn says

    I would love to get rid of the water filter in my ‘fridge and under the counter! This filter sounds quit superior to the ones we are using now!

  66. Elizabeth says

    Oh this is fabulous! I have had my eye on a Berkey for a while. I know the chemicals and fluoride in in our water isn’t good for us and would love to be able to remove it. Thanks for the chance!

  67. Solina says

    Thanks for the chance to win!

  68. April says

    we just use a small filter pitcher, that has to refilled a dozen times a day!

  69. Cristina @ An Organic Wife says

    I’d love to be able to go flouride-free. I actually didn’t know it was possible without a reverse osmosis system.

  70. Elesha says

    My husband and I would really enjoy having clean water! We just moved into the city and have been disappointed with the taste of the water. We use a small filter but it doesn’t seem to get the job done and I wonder what is actually in the water.

  71. Ann Moore says

    This sounds like just the ticket. Water is so precious.

  72. Heidi Jameson says

    Our family has been working so hard towards becoming sustainable! Planting fruit trees, sugarcane and vegetables in our South Florida yard (including walking stick cabbages that last all year!). We’ve been struggling with how to reclaim all the water we get in the rainy season. Winning a Berkley would mean we could drink the rainwater we collect!

  73. Maricela says

    With a beautiful, growing 20-month-old water filtration is so important. I wish we could afford a good filter to protect our son. Giving his little body the best start possible is my goal.

  74. Ali says

    I have been reading about these filters for a long time, I would LOVE to have one! I absolutely love that they are made in the USA and of course the clean water is wonderful. We have very sulfer-y, rusty well water and filter it to drink it. This would be amazing!

  75. Lynette Cruz says

    I would love to own this,The benefits of drinking water without all of the questionable cooties would be nice!lol…

  76. hope says

    Would be wonderful to have clean fresh water.

  77. josette says

    Berkey would be a great addition to my family. Water is the most important ingrediant to life,other than Jesus.
    I would love to have one to help heal me from my surgeries.

  78. Rhonda Cary says

    I’ve been hearing a lot about these on the Survival Podcast – what an awesome addition to our new home it would be!

  79. Amanda says

    I would love to win this! I have been looking into one of them!

  80. Diana Allbrett says

    Sounds great!!!

  81. Faith says

    I didn’t realize what junk is in our every day tap water, it would be nice to be able to treat my family to ‘good’ water!!

  82. Heather R says

    Our water district uses RECYCLED water. I’m sorry, but I don’t want to drink that, it smells! Buying bottled water has gotten more and more expensive and britta filters only do so much and do not filter fast enough to accommodate a family’s needs.

  83. Tiffany says

    I first learned about the Berkey system about two years and have wanted one but realized that the cost was a bit prohibitive. I should just bite the bullet and get one. We currently purchase water for drinking at $2 for each large bottle. That’s roughly 2 bottles a week, so you do the math. Would LOVE to win this!

  84. Jessica says

    Looks like a great water filter. Just wondering what the ph level is of the water after it’s filtered.

  85. Sulena Zollman says

    I love the idea of Berkey system and would love to have a Berkey Light! I love that it filters out all the crud in city water supplies!

  86. Stace @ SavingStace.com says

    Right now we rent a cooler system and I would LOVE to have a system of our own. We go through tons of water ! Thanks so much for the giveaway.

  87. Carolyn says

    We’ve looked at the Berkey a lot and thought about getting one. Our current home has really good well water from a deep well, but soon we are moving out of state to a new home where the water quality is a lot more sketchy- so the Berkey has gotten a major bump up the list of things to get! =)

  88. carol mattaliano says

    I would love one of these after learning what is in our city water supply!!

  89. Kim says

    We live on a well system, and have had one contamination before- I do NOT want to repeat that experience!

  90. Mandy Anderson says

    I would love to win this!

  91. Beth Steinbach says

    I would love to give really clean drinking water to my family of 6. What a blessing that wouldbe.

  92. Skye says

    I only drink water. Our city water is becoming awful to drink. I have 3 little girls and I do not want them exposed to all the contaminants in the water.

  93. Tammy Apitzsch says

    We have well water…it doesn’t taste great, so I don’t drink as much water as I should…but the bottled water alternative is unappealing because of the almost certain fluoride content. I *need* a Berkey!

  94. JOI says

    I’ve been looking for a really good filtration system for my family. Everything seems so cheap and crappy. I just want a healthy family. Geez. Is that too much to ask?

  95. Bernadette says

    We are all trying to keep harmful pesticides and hormones out of our families bodies, but sometimes we forget about the harm found in drinking water. This would be great!

  96. Sarah says

    Clean water is something that is very important to our family! I have been looking for something we could have at home instead of having to run all of the time to the store! As our family will soon reach the size of 7 (baby #5 is due in 6 weeks – children ages 6 and under) it is difficult to always get to the store. I just HATE having to use water from the sink. What a blessing it would be to have a water system at home! 🙂

  97. Heidi says

    I would SO love to have this berkey!! We tried R/O–found that was unsafe. Tap water is bad. Bottled water is bad. We get concerned about other countries not having healthy drinking water–but ours is only a step up because it may be cleaner, but the chemicals are so bad!

  98. Jill DeLuna says

    I have wanted a Berkey for a long time but it’s not in my budget. Thanks for the chance to win one.

  99. Scott says

    Definitely awesome. My girlfriend tells me I’m crazy when I talk about the different tastes in tap water, but with one of these I’m sure she’ll see it too. If I don’t win it, I’ll buy it, guaranteed! 🙂

  100. Marissa Ramsey says

    I had not heard of the Berkey until today, Wow! I am definitely going to check this out. Thanks so much for the chance to win one!

  101. Laura says

    I would love to win, Thank you for the opportunity!

  102. Ruth W. says

    Would love to filter out the flouride and other nasty things!

  103. Mary L says

    Good clean water!

  104. Darci says

    I recently moved to the country where the water system is horrible. I’ve been shopping for a filter, but have had to purchase water through my local whole foods coop in the meantime. This is expensive and labor intensive. I had never heard of a Berkey before today. It sounds like exactly what I need!

  105. Stephanie Doyle says

    I’ve been wanting a Berkey for a while now! Hopefully I will win one, but if not, I’ll just keep saving up!

  106. Dawn DeVinney says

    Thanks for the chance to win … Would love to get a Berkey filter but not in my budget atm .. maybe in the future 🙂

  107. The Soulicious Life says

    This looks like it would work WAY better than our fridge filtration. Thanks for the giveaway!

  108. Amanda says

    I’m most excited about truly clean water. 🙂

  109. Cindy L says

    Have been wanting one of these for a very long time. Thanks for the opportunity!

  110. Debbie Taylor says

    I haven’t even heard of these before, so I’m excited to read what you have to say – and will look into it more. Clean water is so important – we have had scares in our little town a couple of times since I have lived here and don’t want my kids getting sick from nasty water!!!

  111. Stacy says

    Great giveaway! I have wanted one of these for ages. Thanks for the chance!

  112. Charlene M says

    I totally need this!!! My area is one of the worst for well water!!!

  113. j says

    definitely needed most by everyone in this day and age!!!!

  114. Brook Vernon says

    We could truly use a water filter system like this, heck who couldn’t! Thanks for having a giveaway!

  115. Lori says

    We have been using a pitcher with filter for years. Not fully what I’d want, but something. Thanks for this opportunity!

  116. Laurie says

    Oh how I’d love a Berkey! 🙂

  117. holly langford says

    No electricity needed to filter water!

  118. Liz says

    Hoping to win, the counter-top cheapo filter we have needs to be retired!! Thanks for the chance!

  119. Crystal Sewell says

    I’ve been wanting to get a Berkey for a couple years now. We just moved out to the country and thought we were on well water – but we are on city water. I’ve been trying to save up for a Berkey but it seems other expenses keep coming up 🙁 This is a great giveaway!

    Crystal <

  120. Sonja @ practical-stewardship.com says

    That would be a great system to have. Thanks for the giveaway!

    • Sonja @ practical-stewardship.com says

      I am notice the chlorine taste in our city water :(. That’s why it’d be so great to have the Berkey!

  121. Dyane says

    It would be so wonderful to have a system that I know works to filter out all of the bad stuff. I’d love this so I could take it camping or have it at home!

  122. Savannagal says

    Thanks for the giveaway, but nothing happens when I click on your Rafflecopter widget. It just says “loading” and has a spinning wheel constantly turning. I’ve reloaded the page several times, but nothing ever changes. I can’t get it to work. 🙁

  123. Alix says

    Having good clean water anywhere we live.

  124. Blair Annette says

    Would love to win this! We would use it to filter the river water that flows by our home!

  125. Lindsey Hope says

    I would love a Berkley because I have some friends who depend on bottled water. I would love to surprise them with this in order to save them money, make them healthier, and end the wastefulness of relying on bottled water.

  126. theresa says

    Great blog- as usual, this would be wonderful to win. I enjoy my city water, but would love to make it safer for me and my pets. Thanks

  127. Bethany M. says

    I love this! The thought of having water that doesn’t smell or taste like chlorine is just glorious to me! I’m ready!

  128. Tiffany says

    Would love to drink water from our house without the chlorine smell and taste! The small water filter is costly and I agree that it may not get every thing out! I’d loooooooove a Berkey!

  129. Suzy says

    The Berkey has been on my wishlist for LooooonG time!! I am very concerned about my water! I know that Berkey is one of the highest rated water filtration system on the market! I so appreciate the opportunity to WIN one!! Thank you!

  130. Melissa says

    The thing that excites the most about owning a Berkley is that my mom would not need to purchase bottled water to be satisfied with our drinking water.

  131. Julie Clark says

    Thanks so much for this giveaway! We live in Houston and use a filter in our fridge but I know that it’s not the best thing we can be doing. We’re getting married soon and would love to start getting healthier with this!!

  132. Lizzie says

    Really want to provide my new baby with safe drinking water!

  133. Jessica says

    I’ve been wanting one for so long…my husband even wants one!

  134. Kelly Hill says

    I would love to have a Berkey because we are in the city and the water is gross! I don’t think my little tap filter is doing much! I have been wanting a Berkey for a long time!!!

    Can Canadians enter to win?

  136. Jennifer T says

    No chlorine taste in the water along with who-knows-what-else makes a Berkey a fabulous opportunity!

  137. Heather says

    This would be great when we go camping!

  138. Marsha says

    I would love to own an easier water filter. the water in our town i snot safe to drink and has super high flouride content. we have to take jugs to town to fill at a filtration place. I never have appreciated having safe water to drink before.

  139. Glo D says

    Love Berkey! Wouldn’t know what to do without it!

  140. Ashley says

    I love the idea of the Berkey. It is so hard to find filters that are not made out of plastics that contain BPA and other chemicals. I love that you have done so much research on this product. We need to be sure to get the word out there, so that good companies with good products can get their voices heard. Thanks guys!

  141. Heather says

    I’ve been wanting a berkey forever.

  142. Linda says

    I’ve read good things about the Berkey and would love to own one. The high price has so far prevented me from buying one.

  143. Monica says

    This would be a great addition to my home!

  144. Lalena Hernandez says

    This is exciting. Thank you for the opportunity. Clean water is a blessing.

  145. Vicki says

    I use a filtered pitcher in the fridge. I would love this Berkey! Thanks so much for the great giveaway!

  146. Karen says

    Clean water is better than owing lots of gold. I would love to win as they are drilling for gas around our
    area and this is affecting our water. Thanks for the chance.

  147. Grace Filkins says

    I have heard the berkeys are amazing! They even filter out arsenic in the water, which if you ever read the reports about your city water you know you are digesting aresenic. I know that the taste from a Berkey is clean! That excites me. I know many people who own it here in S Colorado because it takes out the sulphur which is what I am looking forward to the most.

  148. Chris G says

    Would love to filter out the nasty desert water we have here.

  149. Susan Godfrey says

    Our water is simply horrible and I’m excited that the Berkey would improve the taste and remove any toxins/impurities.

  150. Lauren says

    I drink almost a gallon a day of horrible tap water. I would LOVE to be able to offer truly clean and healthy water to myself and my family. I used to think just drinking water was making me healthier… but unfortunately not all water is created equal. 🙁

  151. Rachel Lewis says

    I just love your blog! I get so many great & helpful ideas. We drink so much water in our house in addition to making tea & kombucha. Would love to know the water we are drinking/using is as pure as can be! Thanks.

  152. Michelle Sackett says

    My husband and I have always filtered our water with the Brita Pitcher in the fridge and it is the only water I will allow my two grandsons to drink. Just knowing that their water will be better filtered with the Berkley, makes me happy. It will be a great way to teach them too about the importance of good clean water!! Thank you for the opportunity!!

  153. Tara says

    What a great product

  154. Susie says

    For the past several years, I have wanted to purchase a Berkey system for myself and also for my other family members. The filtration system is amazing, and as I move toward a greater and greater self-sustainable lifestyle lifelong tools such as this are increasingly important.

  155. Beth says

    Would LOVE this for my family!

  156. Ashley says

    We could all do with reducing our intake of toxins, chemicals and living a cleaner life. Thanks so much for doing such great posts that are a true help!

  157. Kim Bennett says

    Wouldn’t the cost per gallon be much lower than $0.50-$0.60 per gallon? The article states that one filter is good for 3,000 gallons. I’m assuming the purchase price of $231.00 includes a filter? If so the price per gallon would be less than $.04/gallon and that’s just for the initial purchase. The cost would obviously be less when you were just replacing filters. $0.50-$0.60 per gallon would mean the initial investment would be over $1,500.00. Please correct me if I’m wrong but if not I just wanted to be sure everyone knew this is well worth the investment. As a family of 9 who is currently lugging around and refilling 5 gallon jugs from Culligan water kiosks at local stores for $0.29/gallon almost daily I am certainly aware of its worth. We’ll be getting one soon one way or another. 🙂

  158. Stacy says

    Thanks for the great giveaway!

  159. Kim Bennett says

    Oops, I meant to say 6,000 gallons for an investment of $3,000. You get the idea… 🙂

  160. Belle says

    I would love to win this system. I have been wanting one for a while. Clean water is so important for good health.

  161. Shelley says

    I’ve been coveting a Berkey!

  162. Marilyn says

    Always great information! Thanks so much! When I grow up I want to be like you. …Now to grow up!! 🙂

  163. pak says

    Clean water is so important to your health!

  164. katy says

    I’ve dreamed of owning a Berkey for so long now, if only it were in our budget…I would love to feel safer about the water that we drink and cook with.

  165. Zan says

    I’ve been looking for a water filtration system. This one would be really awesome. 🙂

  166. Kim says

    I have had a berkey on my wish list for a few years now. I would love to win this for my family!!!

  167. tory says

    I’ve been checking these systems out for a while now, but haven’t made the move. Thanks for the fabulous giveaway!

  168. Eileen says

    Our family has been wanting to purchase one. What a great give away!!!

  169. Deanna says

    I’ve been looking at these for about a year! So glad to see your write up about one.

  170. Kristen M. says

    Clean, good-tasting water without flouride and heavy metals!

  171. jilli says

    I hope it filters fluoride but still, so cool I might win!!!!!!!! 🙂 Thank you!

  172. Ramona Bodden says

    I have done my own research on the Berkey and it sounds well worth the money! From what I have read, the filters last for years and the water tastes so good. I have wanted one for a long time but have not been able to find the extra $$ to get it. Good luck to all who want to win one!

  173. waggie says

    We have been wanting one for about a year now! Thanks 🙂

  174. Ruth Ho says

    We have been using a closed Berkey filter for YEARS (bought 1999 – for Y2K). It has been wonderful!!! We use it when travelling (hotel water is ALWAYS chlorinated) – and we can even use it for the ice cubes (making ice cold filtered water.) It takes out all the chlorine taste/smell. Would love to win one for one of my adult children! They would be thankful to have it. Thanks for giving the opportunity.

  175. theresa says

    Awesome! We would LOVE, LOVE, LOVE to have a Berkey!

  176. Mary says

    I was just researching the Berkey the other day. I am very interested in drinking clean water.

  177. theresa says

    right now we share 2 portable water bottles between 7 of us, so a Berkey would be awesome, that is exciting!

  178. Terri Betz says

    With a terminal illness in the family, we have seen amazing improvements in quality of life from good food, supplements and reduction of stress! Clean water is a dream of all of us! We could never afford to buy one so I am grateful n excited for a chance or chances to win it! Thank you FS n bless you n yours! 🙂

  179. WildCrafter says

    I would love to have one of these!

    • WildCrafter says

      Maybe I should not hit enter before I mean to. LOL

      We have a well and the water is less than desirable. We have always filtered the water as it comes into the house, but some gets past. It’s very hard water.

  180. Sara Thompson says

    What a neat system. Look forward to learning more about it.

  181. Judy says

    Like so many others posting here, I read about the Berkley a while ago and put it on my “Wish List”. I live in rural Washington and have had crummy water since we put in the well 25 years ago. It smells, is cloudy with clay, and is about as hard as water can get. Winning a Berkley would make it so I didn’t have to haul water from work (which is only slightly better than home!) P.S. I love your blog and pin almost everything!

  182. Kathleen says

    Wow! We’ve been looking at these for a long time, for both health and practicality. Would love to win one!

  183. Rebecca J says

    Our city water is supposed to be safe (according to the letter that the water company sends us every year), but it doesn’t taste too good straight out of the tap. I love the idea of a water filter system that doesn’t use electricity (I’m on a mission to reduce my electric bill) like the one on our fridge does. I’ve heard that Berkey’s are the best!

  184. Kandice says

    I would love to win this because we have been having a terrible time with chlorinated water….it is so strong you can taste it through your tea and coffee!

  185. Joybilee Farm says

    Fantastic giveaway, Andrea. I just LOVE you blog. Every day there is some surprise happening. Amazing that you can take this water filter with you travelling, too. That’s a great innovation. Makes me want one.
    Chris

  186. Raj M says

    Clean water!!

  187. Jodi says

    We were just looking at purchasing one on Sunday evening. Maybe we’ll win one. If not, it’s on our purchase list for sure!

  188. Laila says

    I would love to have one of these- been trying to save the money on a disability paycheck. My water distiller has to be cleaned after each use, our water is that bad, and new filters are hard to get. This would be a dream come true!

  189. Lovie says

    Love that it doesn’t require electricity. When I was preggo with DS1, my MIL brought us spring water. Boy do I miss that. Look forward to having pure water. 😀

  190. Rebecca says

    I have wanted to purchase one for quite a while now. We rent a culligan system….so even if we bought a Berkey it would pay for itself in a year. I love the fact that you can transport it wherever you go if you move. What a great giveaway!

  191. Lacey says

    I’d love to have one of these! I’ve been looking for an inexpensive/longlasting solution for a while. So excited 🙂

  192. Shean says

    The ability to have filter water. We have well water and buying bottle water is costly.

  193. Alicia says

    never heard of this. Sounds really great!

  194. bren says

    ooh, i’ve heard so many good things about this water filter. this would be a perfect addition to our kitchen.

  195. Kim M says

    Better tasting water excites me most! Plus no flouride (with a special filter?) and less bacteria, yuck.

  196. Kristina says

    Oh I would LOVE to own one of these! Our basic water filter has lasted up years, but I fear it isn’t doing its job like it used to. 🙁

  197. michelle monaghan says

    I like that it is easy for my kids to use independently!!

  198. Sarah Reckards says

    Water is life! Clean water is so important to me and my family and is the foundation to good health. I would be so excited to have a unit like this 🙂

  199. Lisa says

    I have been looking at this brand for 4 months now, it’s on my NEED list. This would greatly help with getting our crappy water much healthier for my family and pets.

  200. thistlemoon says

    I have one of the pitcher water filters and also one of the faucet filters and I’m not really happy with either one. The filters don’t last long at all and I can’t go out and buy a new one every other week.

  201. Brooke Phillips says

    I have wanted a Berkey for so long! It’s on my wish list, but I never seem to quite pull together the budget to work it in!

  202. Shanyn says

    I was just worrying about my tap water this morning. I use a filter pitcher and has not been up to standards lately! We drink a LOT of water. We use our stainless steel water bottles ALL the time and I worry that as I tell my kids to drink lots of water (especially in the hot weather) I am making them sick. This system is AWESOME but not within my budget!!!! I would really use and appreciate this system!

  203. Lori says

    This filtration system sounds awesome! I would love to see this setting on our bar, beckoning all of us to partake of some clean healthy water!

  204. Aaliyah Lewi says

    Good clean water is what i want for my family and i…i would love to have a Berkley water system in my house.

  205. Tabatha says

    I would love to own a great Berkley water system!

  206. Gina says

    I have a lot of heavy metals toxins in my body, and I don’t think my current water filter is doing a good job… I really could use a Berkley! 🙂

  207. Jan Hunnicutt says

    Thanks for a chance to win this awesome water filtering system!

  208. TLS says

    We have pretty decently tasting water here, but taste has nothing to do with rally GOOD water. I would LOVE one of these but the cost is a major holdback. Winning would be AWESOME!

  209. Alyssa says

    I have been thinking alot about the whole water thing. I used to have a water cooler system but luggin the 5 gallon jugs to have them filled was hard! The Berkley sounds great!

  210. Kyla says

    I’d love for my family to win this! We’d definitely make good use of it.

  211. DearMyrah says

    The more I find out about about what’s in my water, the more I’m convinced we need one of these! Our whole family would benefit.

  212. Monica says

    Having access to truly clean water would give me great peace of mind. What a great giveaway!

  213. MonicaG says

    My friend owns one and it is really great! When people see it, they just have to ask and taste. I would love to own one too! Thanks for the chance.

  214. Tawney says

    We talk about getting something for our water and just haven’t yet. It would be so nice to win this filter.

  215. Angela DeRossett says

    I would love to own one of these systems. Our water sometimes becomes very cloudy and smells which leaves me worried that in the times that it’s not like this that there must be *something* in there even if it looks and smells clean. We use bottled water when the change occurs but having a system like this would also allow us to save money and give us peace of mind.

  216. Kate N. says

    The thing I would love about this is being sure our water is free of chlorine! Thank you so much for the opportunity!

  217. Becky says

    What a cool way to filter a large amount of water. I wish we had the space for it. I’ll be sure to tweet the giveaway for you even though I am not entering.

  218. Louise says

    I’d love to drink pure clean water. Water is so important to our health.

  219. Natalie B says

    I had no idea my Brita wasn’t doing the job! The most exciting thing would be providing my baby with worry-free water. He’s not drinking water yet but I use it to make his baby food, mommy the cow drinks it, and he will too once he starts using a cup {we don’t do commercial juices}. I want one!!

  220. Rachael says

    What an amazing giveaway. Thank you! I can tell the filtration system from my refrigerator doesn’t work very well. This would be a great gift.

  221. Beth says

    One can never go wrong owning a good water filter. In a worst case scenario even lake water can be made safe to drink by passing through the filters that Berkey uses! Personally, I do not think the up front cost is high at all… almost everyone I know buys bottled water on at least a semi regular basis. If you can afford to buy bottled water you can afford to buy a Berkey! When you consider the cost to the environment it is astounding. Our family re-uses glass kombucha bottles (mostly GTs), or mason jars for our water bottles.

  222. Jennifer J. says

    What a nice unit! I didn’t know about these until I read this through a link from a friend, but I’m so glad I did. I’m going to be reading much more on this blog…and about the Berkeys. Very intriguing!

  223. Sandy Thomas says

    What a wonderful give-away…..always wanted one but just live on a part time salary, so it has always been one of those items on my “wish list”. Whoever wins this will surely be a happy camper !

  224. Ali B says

    This is the perfect way to get my little one to drink more water instead of always asking for juice!!!

  225. angela says

    Knowing I would have safe water everyday for drinking and making herbal teas and a great benefit when that next hurricane comes through.

  226. Julie Townsend says

    We are moving and I do not know the quality of our water at the new place.
    Clean water is so important for the health of my family.
    I would love to win the Berkey Light filter to insure safe drinking water!

  227. Sandy Neighbors says

    We recently moved and the water here has an odor and strange taste.I have been buying water.I really need to look into getting a filter for the house.Our previous house had a whole house filter.

  228. Jenny says

    I would love a Berkey because despite “reassuring” blurbs from the water company about how great our water is, when you actually look at the fine print (i.e. the measurements taken), it doesn’t look that good!

  229. Amy P says

    Oh my goodness, I would love to have a Berkey filter. Our well water is so rusty and sulfurous, it really doesn’t quench thirst at all and doesn’t make one want to drink their daily optimal amount of water. I’ve been eyeing up the Berkey for awhile now but just haven’t been able to spring for one on our single income budget. Thanks so much for the chance to win one. 🙂

  230. Mickie says

    Oh, I ONLY drink water — it would be so nice to not have to worry what’s in it anymore!

  231. Jessica Poston says

    I want to see how much better it makes our well water taste! It’s kinda funky right now. 😛

  232. Shannon says

    We’ve been using a Pur filter for lack of better affordable options. Would love to win a Berkey to replace it!

  233. Amy Johnson says

    Good water is a must and what an environmentally friendly way to do it!

  234. April D says

    This would be fantastic to own. We have to fill 5 gallon bottles and have a water cooler because the water where I live is so horrible. This would help us so much.

  235. Vonnie B. says

    I would love to win a Berkey. Would be nice to now that all the impurity is filtered out of our drinking water.

  236. Kimberly says

    My Mom has one of these and we all love it! I would love to have one to get all the nasties out of my water but the cost is way too much for us right now!

  237. Nichola Files says

    I have wanted a Berkey for several years. Would love to have a way to filter our water completely…

  238. Sara says

    I tried to leave a comment on the widget above, but it didn’t let me type anything in yet said I had left a comment… Oh, well. I was thinking that this would be really useful in another country.

  239. pam hurley says

    I am always working towards providing my family with the healthiest options available to us. My husband and I have been wanting a Berkey water filter for a while, but haven’t been able to afford it yet. I would love to give my family the cleanest water possible.

  240. Kathy says

    I’ve been interested in Berkey filters for a while. We’ve already ditched purchased bottled water in favor of refillable bottles – I’d love to be able to fill them with filtered water!

  241. stef says

    would love to have cleaner water for my kids and animals, also if times get worse, it’s always safe to have a system that doesn’t rely on modern facilities

  242. Abiga/Karen says

    Sparkling clean healthy water !

  243. Deven says

    I would love an upgrade on what we have!

  244. Cynthia says

    Having clean water!! We have a well but having a Berkey would make me feel more secure about our drinking water.

  245. Veronica R says

    Making sure my family has clean water to drink.

  246. Gini Walker says

    It will be great to have clean filtered water. Thanks for the opportunity 😀

  247. Melanie says

    I have been looking into getting a Berkey water filter system, what a great giveaway.

  248. RunAmok Farm says

    As with everyone else, we would LOVE to win a Berkey!! Thank you for the opportunity… 🙂

  249. Christine J says

    We’ve been thinking of getting one of these! We drink water only at our house and it would be nice to know its clean

  250. RaShell S says

    We have had a Berkey on our wish list for a very long time. Thank you for the entry.

  251. Brooke says

    We have excellent water at our home, but my parents have awful water! I would be most excited about giving it to my Mom for her to enjoy good tasting water with it!

  252. Lysanne Lumina says

    I am not really clear on how to enter to win a Berkly filtration system but I sure to need one! Our water system is really bad and my water is yellow and smells like swamp.

  253. Teresa says

    Water I’m confident is clean and safe for my family, especially my little ones

  254. Bethany says

    I would love to win!

  255. Bethany says

    Sorry, didn’t read how I was supposed to comment: I would be most excited about my water tasting better!

  256. Christy H says

    We have been researching Berkey water filters for a while now. Thank you so much for the entry in this great giveaway!

  257. Annie says

    We’ve been saving up for one of these. Winning one would be nice 🙂

    I am really excited about the berkey because it filters out fluoride, most water filters don’t.

  258. LAUREL SHOEMAKER says

    We;ve heard lots of great reports about the Berkey and know that the 11 people in our family would be happy to keep that water flowing…lots of water being drunk up over here. Never can trust what comes out of the faucet…we’d drink easy w/ a Berkey.

  259. Phil Borowski says

    Clean, pure water is so important for your health! And, we have some health issues at our house and could truly benefit from this!

  260. Nathan says

    The thing I like best about a Berkey is the incredibly low price per gallon of filtered water. It’s one of the best financial investments you’ll ever make, to say nothing of the dividends it pays in the health realm!

  261. Melanie Yardley says

    Great article and giveaway!! I care about what my family puts in their mouths and on their skin. We have the Berkey show filter since our tap water reeks of chlorine. The Berkey Light would be a great addition to our household to help us keep a healthy lifestyle.

  262. Rachel Brinks says

    I’m excited about cleaner tasting water… I have city water and it tastes like chemicals most days.

  263. Shannon says

    We have 6 children and water is just about the only thing we drink! Some go through a lot of water… Unfortunately, we also live in Southeast Texas, where chemical refineries abound. I shudder to think of what is in our water!

  264. Kelsey TEnnison says

    No matter where we live, we can always have access to clean/fresh/pure water!!!

  265. Sharri says

    I am recovering from cancer and other health issues and would really love to have this wonderful water filter to give me healthy water! 🙂

  266. LisaR says

    Two things excite us: one is getting the flouride out of the water. The other is that the area we live in is known to be one of the highest in the country for kidney stones. I am positive that filtering the water will help with that!

  267. Tracie says

    What excites me most about owning a Berkey is not only clean drinking water for the whole family, but it would be one less thing that I would worry about putting into our bodies-goodbye stress!

  268. Lauren says

    Would love to win this. We have been wanting to get a good water filter but cant afford it yet. Trying to pay cash like Dave Ramsey says.

  269. Karen says

    I have

  270. Stephanie says

    I would love a Berkey. It would be great to have the water out in the open so it would promote great healthy water twofold. My kids would probably drink more water and they would be doing it knowing it is cleaner and more pure for them.

  271. Kara Olson says

    I have been looking into one of these for awhile but haven’t had the money for it! I would love know that my kids are drinking pure and clean water and I wouldn’t have to worry about it! Thank you for this giveaway!

  272. Lindsay C says

    The most exciting aspect of owning a Berkey is clean water for the whole family!!

  273. Rachel says

    We would love to have a cheap, easy way to have good, fresh, clean water in our house!!! It would be fantastic to have a fantastic way to have healthy, clean water right at our use!

  274. Karen says

    Oops, I have been wanting to get one for months now, but can’t afford it!! We have a LOT of chlorine and other in our water and it just tastes nasty, my kiddos drink lots of water and I’m worried about what nasties they could be getting from the water!!

  275. Lanette says

    I was so mad when I found out my fridge didn’t filter out Flouride… If Flouride causes cancer in lab rats why is it in our toothpaste, our mouthwash, and our drinking water?? I have been looking for a solution to this problem because I drink A TON of water. So glad I saw this. Pick my name!! 🙂

  276. Nur says

    Clean water is so important in these days. I would love to win this wwonderful water filter. Thanks!

  277. Mary says

    The fact that we have untested well water!

  278. AnneJisca says

    Would love to win this to bring with us to Africa! Preparing to move there as missionaries. 🙂

  279. Danielle Baldi says

    I would love to have a water filter that got rid of arsenic and fluoride. I would love for our small kiddos and our new babe to have some cleaner water.

  280. Denise L says

    I have been so impressed with the Berkey, but deterred a little by the price, although I know it’s worth every cent. I would be so grateful to win this…crossing my fingers!

  281. Angel Sweezea says

    Berkey water is some of the best tasting water I have ever had. I love the idea of having it available right on my countertop!

  282. Stacy says

    We have a reverse osmosis filter but this looks awesome, too and would help get those chemicals out that the ro doesn’t.

  283. Angela Yer says

    We always buy reverse osmosis water at the store, but I have been wanting to buy a Berkey for a long time. Winning one would be amazing! Thanks for the offer!

  284. Christi says

    We have had a berkey for 9 years now. Pretty sure we need to change thw filters!

  285. Natalie Bachiri says

    I so want a water system like this. I’ve had my eye on the one they sell at our local Mom’s Organic Market, which is very similar and much more expensive. Glad to find this one… Thanks

  286. Andrea says

    I have been wanting a water filter in my kitchen for some time now but it seems that every time I’ve had enough money saved, something more immediate has come up! Frustrating! A Berkey would be wonderful!

  287. colleen says

    I would love one of these so much. I have been eyeing it for years, but I just can’t afford one at this time.

  288. Heather Brandt says

    Owning this filter would help us to have safe water for our son to drink while he is on the GAPS diet trying to heal his tummy.

  289. Shanda says

    I am a huge Berkey fan, my parents and sister have one and we love them!

  290. Danielle B says

    This would be great to have, we have to buy ONLY bottled water.

  291. Lisa Pfeifer says

    Shoshanna, I did the same research to find the best water for my family, and Berkey was my conclusion as well. And when I ordered the Berkey, I also got to choose the fluoride/arsenic filters for free, so all in all it was the BEST investment! This year for mother’s day my hubby bought me a new spigot that shows the water level inside the tank for our Berkey. Would love to win the Berkey Light for travel and trips or to gift one of my friends with!

  292. Bethany B. says

    OOH, I have had one of these on my wish list for a while now, but our budget just hasn’t allowed it. I would love to have nice clean water without all the extra stuff in it for my family!!

  293. Carolynne Ford says

    I have been saving up so we can get a Berkey for our home filtration system. This would be so wonderful in our home!!

  294. Cathy says

    We’ve had our Berkey Light for about 5-6 years now and love it. I was curious about the cost numbers, though. If you were to buy the Berkey at $231 and 6 fluoride/arsenic filters at $61 each (those only last for 1000 gallons), that comes to $597…divide that by 6000 gallons and I get just under 10 cents per gallon. Maybe you’re factoring in something else, though.

    Also was wondering if others have the fluoride/arsenic filters? We added them last year and have never gotten them to work well, despite trouble shooting on the Berkey site. They make the filter extremely slow, to the point where we took them back out. We would LOVE to use these if we could figure out how to make them work properly. Thanks for any help if anyone else has had this problem.

  295. Paige says

    I would love to know that I’m drinking water that is clean and safe. Totally stoked about this giveaway!

  296. Shannon says

    Clean water from a filter you can actually trust is working. 🙂

  297. Alicia says

    I would love to have this! We’ve had a little Brita pitcher filter for years and although it tastes better than tap, it doesn’t filter much.

  298. Mary says

    I’ve been reading about the Berkley and they sound really great! Would love the chance to win one!

  299. Mary says

    I’ve been reading about the Berkley and they sound really great! Would love the chance to win one!

  300. Becca C says

    Awesome. I’d love to use this for our family for drinking water and for making water kefir!

  301. Jennifer Wallace says

    I would LOVE to win one of these! To be able to actually purify the water we drink? Priceless! I try to get things to get my family prepared, and the Berkey would be wonderful to have!

  302. Sarah Lewis says

    I am excited to own a Berkey so that I can stop worrying about the flouride in our water damaging my toddlers teet! Yea!! 🙂

  303. Danneca says

    We have one Berkey and couldn’t be happier. However, Baby #9 is on the way and being a family of competitive runners we go through tons of water. Would LOVE to have another Berkey running around the clock! : )

  304. Abby says

    I want a Berkey for my family!! We need less junk in our drinking water! 🙂

  305. Becky says

    I love the idea of quality, undefiled water that still has taste and nutrients. My family would love this…..all 7 of us.

  306. Michele says

    I NEED something that will filter the fluoride out of my water! I grew up with non-fluoridated well water and never had a cavity, thyroid problems, or skin problems…until I moved to a house with fluoridated city water when I was 33! Now I’m a mess! I also have a 2 year old and I don’t want him to suffer the effects of fluoride poisoning like I am! I’ve gotten my first cavity, have thyroid issues (having trouble getting pregnant too) and my face is a mess! Help!

  307. Melissa V says

    I have had my eye on a Berkey for awhile…. We have city water. We buy all of our drinking water at this time and would love to be able to filter our water with a quality filter system we can trust.

  308. Janelle says

    My husband and I live in a tiny apartment, and the water here tastes like pipes and who-knows-what! We’ve been gimping along with a little pitcher filter, but it really isn’t cutting it. We would love to be able to drink water that we know is clean and GOOD! 🙂

  309. Janelle says

    Subscribed to the newsletter! 🙂

  310. Janelle says

    ‘Like’d y’all on facebook 🙂

  311. melissa D says

    I so want one! I’d drink more water!

  312. Janelle says

    ‘Like’d the blog post! Here’s hoping… 🙂

  313. Kerri says

    We recently moved to the city in another state. Really miss our clean delicious well water. Would love to have a Berky for teas, kombucha, cooking, drinking… My FIL has one he used in his motor home. Really want one of our own!!!

  314. Leah says

    I have had my eye on one of these for a while, and love that it doesn’t require electricity!

  315. Polly says

    We have been through several hurricanes and access to clean water is an issue everytime. The Berkey would be a great addition.

  316. Dawn says

    So cool!!!!! Fingers crossed!

  317. moir casadei says

    Berkley Water filtration system is NEEDED in Stonington, CT to take the toxins, chlorine, heavy metals OUT of our drinking/cooking/bathing water! Thanks for the “one-in-a-million” chance to win one!!!!

  318. Tara says

    We have wanted a Berkey for awhile but can never seem to save the money. Seems we keep having children. Could be something in our city water. See I need this.

  319. Tasha says

    LOVE this blog! I have been wanting a Berkey forever. It would be such a huge blessing to me and my family if I won 🙂

  320. Kristy says

    I have a passion for water! Strange I realize yet it’s so crucial for life! A great tool for clean water.

  321. Leah c says

    Thank you for a great opportunity to have good, clean water!

  322. KP says

    So glad I found your blog! We go through so much water at my house as it’s really one of hte only things we drink. This has been on my wish list for sometime. I think this is going to be added to the birthday list this year 🙂

  323. Mandy says

    I would love to be able to offer this to my family! We currently have a filter, but it pales in comparison! Thank you so much for this opportunity!!

  324. Kristen Sosebee says

    We began using a Brita filter after moving to the city for my husband to attend law school, and thought that was sufficient. But then I began reading Cancer Think Outside the Box from the Bulk Herb Store and read how horrible fluoride and other things are that are added all the time to city water. I grew up on well water, so I had no idea! Definitely would love to have something that removes all the toxins from the water I give my husband and little boy, but the price has always been a bit of a hindrance.

  325. Jacquelyn says

    I don’t want to buy bottled water anymore!! I would LOVE this Berkey!!!

  326. Cindy B says

    I, like you, have often thought it would be great to own one of these filtering systems. On a school teacher’s salary we have to mind where all our money goes so it’s not been in the budget. This would truly be a blessing. Thanks for the great giveaway.

  327. Sara says

    Having fresh water for my family!

  328. Leigh says

    CLEAN water for my family! I’ve been researching them for a year and saving up – if I don’t win one soon, I’m close to buying it!

  329. Calley says

    I am continually concerned about the fluoride in our water, and have wanted a Berkey for some time. Would LOVE to win one!

  330. AMomsPassion says

    Our family strives each day to live a more frugal/sustainable lifestyle in the middle of suburbia. I have found this super challenging at times and think that winning would continue us on our journey! Thanks so much for the opportunity =)

  331. Melissa says

    My in-laws have the Big Berkey and we’d love to have one too! The water tastes great!

  332. Johnna says

    We have wanted one of these for years now. Then my husband lost his job and we couldn’t afford it. We are slowly trying to save up for one. We have been using a water distiller for years but we love that the Berkey does even better than the distiller AND it leaves the important minerals in the water.

  333. Ashley says

    I would LOVE to own one of these, I have a family full of young children and this would be ideal to have an option for healthy water, right now where we’re renting the water smells of sulfur and has “bits” of rock or something in it and we’ve cheap water filters to help with the taste but the filters never last for very long.

    Thanks for all your great information, finding something made in the USA (which is so important), and for even giving away this wonderful product to someone.

    Cheers,
    Ashley

  334. Olya says

    To know that I’ll be drinking GOOD water and that my family will have THE BEST water is awesome!

  335. Esther N says

    Would love to own one!

  336. Esther N says

    And know that our water is good now!

  337. Deborah says

    If I had one of these, I could FINALLY stop worrying about what we’re drinking.

  338. Debbie Ober says

    Cool, clean water! Just thinking of how wonderful our ice tea will taste this summer!!
    Hugs!

  339. Melissa from the Blue House says

    OOOH< this has been on my wish list forever!!!! I want one BAD…. the stuff in our water is just downright scary, and I would love to stop worrying about what my children are drinking!

  340. Christina S says

    I’ve always wanted to get something like this for my families kitchen, we get our water from a well and I just don’t trust it to be safe to drink. It would be nice to be able to quit buying bottled watered.

  341. Christie says

    I would love to win one of these! Thank you for the giveaway!

  342. Christie says

    I would love to know we are drinking pure water without all the harmful stuff in city water.

  343. Marilee says

    I’ve wanted a berkey for the longest time…just the thought of all that lovely pure water excites me!

  344. Mary Ann says

    I’ve wanted a Berkey ever since I read about it at the Bulk Herb Store, like a year ago. Our city water is so full of chlorine you can smell it when you turn the tap on, and Britta filters just don’t cut it. I have actually used two Britta pitchers and filtered the water from one through the other before drinking it. Sure would be nice not to have to do that.

  345. Janessa says

    Our water is so chlorinated that guests who don’t live in our town gag on it. Or it smells like a pool. I think it would be lovely to offer truly clear water!

  346. erin h says

    i am so stinkin’ excited about this giveaway and really hoping i win. i struggle big time with the whole water issue and had never heard of the berkey until this blogpost and it seems so so SO amazing.

  347. Heidi says

    Having good really clean water for our family!! I’ve heard such great things about the Berkey and I’d love to give it a try!

  348. Thea says

    Nothing tastes as good as plain, simple, CLEAN water!!

  349. Hethyr says

    We’ve just started thinking about buying a filtration system and this one looks great!

  350. Roberta says

    I’ve been looking at Berkeys for a while. This is a terrific giveaway!

  351. Kate says

    We’d LOVE to have cleaner water! Our city water is yucky. Just talking the other day about water filtration systems with my lovely husband. 🙂 Thanks so much for the chance to enter! 🙂

  352. Kerry Bowlin says

    My husband and I having been looking and looking for a good way to drink healthy water. I ran across one of these in the CO-OP i belong to but just couldn’t afford it. I would love to use this in my home.

  353. Christine says

    I would love to have clean water!

  354. Suzanne says

    I dream of never seeing “floaties” ever again in my glass of water. Is it really possible?

  355. alisa joy says

    wow. just…WOW! what an amazing giveaway… thank you!

  356. Dawn says

    I’ve had my eye on a Berkey for awhile now and finally did some real research on it yesterday. My husband and I feel this is the best option for clean drinking water. Thanks for this great giveaway. It’s like a confirmation for us that we should have one. 🙂

  357. April Garcia says

    We so need one of these as we just moved back to town where we have city water again, yuck!!! We really need one so we can have good water to drink.

  358. Vicki says

    This would be so perfect for my family of 8. Our water has alot of hard minerals. My kidneys start to hurt and then I need to purchase distilled water for a while.

  359. Angie says

    Oh, what a great give-a-way. We are on well water and would love to know it is super clean after the Berkey does it’s job. Love your site.

  360. Katie Kinzler says

    Clean water….our town’s water always reeks and tastes of chlorine!!.

  361. Nate and Tomi Moore says

    well, this is one of our sustainable goals – water in the desert! this product makes a lot of sense. i was just reading the water system book with the kids. ugh, it actually brags about adding ‘ safe’ chemicals to our water! no, thank you.

  362. Estela I. says

    Wow, looks easy to use and you don’t need electricity!

  363. Jacquelyn says

    We have a britta filter and everytime I use it I wonder if it is really making much difference. My husband does not want to spend the money on higher quality filters so this giveaway would be so awesome to win! sounds awesome! thanks for writing about it!

  364. Zonnah says

    Nice clean water that does not taste awful!

  365. Amanda says

    Knowing that it would be safe and healthy for my family. I personally have never liked tap water and so for several years we have been having Ozarka Spring Water Delivered, but again I am not sure how safe it is in those plastic jugs. A berkey system would be a true blessing to our family!

  366. Blair says

    They say that a Berkey Light Water System is the best one can buy. Thank you so much for sharing about it with your readers. This is a great contest! 🙂

  367. darlene lopez says

    It excites me to own a Berkey because we cant afford to buy one so to win one would be AWESOME! I like the idea of having clean water for my kids

  368. rachel v. says

    What excites me most is KNOWING my water will be clean and tasty!

  369. Jessica Kaloger says

    I would LOVE to own one of these!!!!!!

  370. Kat says

    I’ve been wanting to get a water filter for a couple years now but my husband doesn’t want to dish out the money and he won’t research.

  371. Katie says

    Such a great product, we would LOVE to have one!

  372. Eric Courtemanche says

    I’ve heard and read so many good things about Berkey Filters that I’d love to have one.

  373. Joy B. says

    Clean water is what excites me! We drink city water and I hate it but also hate how much reliable filters cost. Winning the Berkley would be awesome! Thanks for the chance!

  374. Elizabeth says

    I love fresh clean water..one thing i hate about most water is that in most you can see trace elements floating inside..nasty

  375. Kelsi says

    I have researched many water options and the Berkey sounds like the all around best. I would LOVE to win one for my family.

  376. Dawn says

    I’ve had my eye on one of these and I was just researching it more yesterday. My husband and I feel this is the best option of getting good drinking water at home. What a blessing it would be to win…saying a prayer 🙂

  377. Anne-Marie says

    Wow what.a great giveaway! I have pretty good well water but this would make it even better.

  378. Naomi Jones says

    I am a water snob! This would be the ultimate prize!

  379. Danielle says

    My family and I would love to win this Berkey because having clean, safe, healthy water is extremely important to us!! Hope we win!! 🙂

    Danielle

  380. Elisha Rhoades says

    Wish my family could own something like this!

  381. Kat says

    DH and I have been looking for a good water filter and Berkley came highly recommended. We’d love to win this one!!

  382. Laura says

    I have been looking for something like this! I, too, don’t trust the little faucet attached filter that we have now. It doesn’t seem to work at all.

  383. Mary Beth Elderton says

    No worrying what;s in the water.

  384. Alison says

    This would be great to have. less of a pain then refilling the pitcher filter I currently have. 🙂

  385. Gay says

    This looks really great. Would love to have one, especially if I won one!!!

  386. Vicky Carlson says

    I’m so excited about the Berkey. I want to own the Big Berkey and this one. I love that it works with gravity and the water is so clean. I love that it you can get filters to also filter fluoride and arsenic. Love Love Want!!

  387. jene says

    Would love one of those our city water is pretty gross . Really need to have addsome clean water

  388. Trish says

    This would be awesome to have especially with our son recovering from a bone marrow transplant after having leukemia, and he can’t drink our well water.

  389. Rachel Salinardi says

    I would like to own this because it would provide us with healthy drinking water! My 3 kids would be able to get their own yummy water 🙂

  390. Jessi S says

    Sounds great…anything for the health of our family.

  391. Christine @ these light footsteps says

    Wow, have you ever had so many comments?!
    I guess a lot of us think a Berkey would be a good addition to our households! I certainly do!

  392. Heather says

    We just received a letter from our city regarding our city water. It contains cancer causing agents (can not remember of the exact name of them off hand) and has for 30+ years!! But the citizens are just now being informed about it! Nice of them to finally tell us!! Hmmmmmm, maybe this has something to do with our county having the highest cancer rate in our state!! Grrrrrrrrrr!!!! Would love love love to win one!!!

  393. Rosi Scoggin says

    I just found out I tested positive for Lupus. I am trying lots of things to help me with feeling better. I would love to have the Berkeyto see if it would help the Lupus.

  394. Melonie K. says

    Thank you for hosting this giveaway! I’ve been “coveting” the Berkey line for some time now. We use a little Brita but I know the Berkey would filter out much more. We have very hard, very heavily chlorinated water because we live on an island. We know we’ll be moving this fall and two of the places on the list have very hard water as well, one with a very bad sulfur smell to the area’s water. What a blessing it would be to have a Berkey on the counter instead of dealing with what would still be left in our Brita!

  395. Laura G. says

    We have well water, but with so many farms around us, I would love to have a berkey to filter it just in case.

  396. Jo Ellen says

    I would love to have one of these!

  397. Jackie says

    I cannot wait to taste how amazing the water tastes from this system!!!

  398. Michele says

    I would love to win one of these! I’ve been struggling with decisions about what water is our best option. Purer water would be great!

  399. Sara Carlson says

    I would be so excited to win this. I do a lot of thinking on preparedness and I always wonder if storing hundreds of gallons. That takes up a lot of room! So this would be perfect. So awesome!

  400. Kendra says

    What excites me the most about the possibility of owning a Berkey filter is the peace of mind that would come from knowing my family is not drinking water that is unhealthy for them.

  401. Kathy says

    We live in a semi-rural area, and although we have a water system we are hooked-up to, they put HUGE amounts of chlorine in the water. It smells like pool water coming out of the tap. I would love one of these so we could feel safer drinking our own tap water. Thanks so much for doing this giveaway! 🙂

  402. Veronica says

    We’re moving to a new house, and leaving our RO filter behind. We’ve been wondering about the best option for filtering water at our new house, and I think this may be it!

  403. Leann says

    We run through filters in our Brita like crazy…. I would love to have this available for my family to be assured that they are getting the safest drinking water around and without having to change those dang filters so often like we are now.

  404. Amy says

    We currently have a filter on our faucet, for our well water. It would be great to win one!

  405. Christi says

    With young children it is so important to do what we can to have them be healthy. I am really excited that Berkley offers drinking in peace with having pure water. Thank you.

  406. lisa b miller says

    yes for clean water!! We have a pur filter system now, but it ca be real slow.

  407. Michelle says

    I would love to own a Berkey! We have been dreaming of owning one for a long time!

  408. Sarah B. says

    I was just about to order a Berkey when I saw this giveaway posted on fb by BulkHerb and wondered if it was Providential! Thank you.

  409. Mrs. B says

    I would love to enter this. I have been drooling for sometime over a Berkey. However, I can’t get the linky to work right (?) == it always asks to sign up to make one and then goes no further. Am I missing something simple here?

  410. shell says

    We drink a lot of water in my family and this Berkey water system would be so nice to have nice and clean fresh water.

  411. Johanna I. says

    I would love to have one of these to be sure my family is getting the safest, purest water possible.I have a 15-month-old and a baby due ANY MINUTE and would love the peace of mind this would give.

  412. Moonpie says

    Not buying bottled water!!!!!

  413. Jennifer Smith says

    Not having to buy bottled, less trash since we won’t have to throw away plastic bottles, and cleaner water for my family means we stay healthier!

  414. Judi Kelly says

    I have used the faucet filter, and the container with the filter. The faucet filter was a pain to change, and the container filter left little black specks of the charcoal. Just seemed……to simple to be healthy. Back to bottles water (where DOES it come from?) and plastic to deal with. This system seems to be safer and eco-friendly.

  415. Ang says

    I have Brita water bottles, and love them, but my kids don’t get to use them when I have them with me and they aren’t as well, so this would be AWESOME.

  416. Marcella F says

    I really like that fact that the system doesn’t use electricity to filter the water. Not only does it save money from buying bottled water, but it saves money on electricity, too.

  417. Leona C says

    I try not to think about the water I am drinking since I don’t have the money yet to own a really good filter system like Berkey.

    Once I do, I’ll be so happy to drink fresh delicious water 🙂 I think my betta fish General Hemingway would also enjoy to live in fresh chemical-free water too!

  418. Anita says

    We live in Michigan now and fortunately live by a place that sells spring water for 50 cents a gallon. But we are planning on moving to Virginia soon, and all I keep reading about it their newspapers is how bad the water is there. I know that when we move there I need to invest in a clean water system, so I have been looking for something like this! Thanks for the chance to comment 🙂

  419. Heather L says

    With this I would be able to offer my family a better choice and safer water and it’s an off the grid appliance!!

  420. Katie B. says

    Living in the city, I would so love to have real clean water! I cannot wait to see who wins!

  421. Julia MacNeil says

    Do you know how this compares to RO water? That is what we are currently using for drinking/cooking water. Would love another alternative.
    Julia

  422. Anna @ Feminine Adventures says

    We also just have a cheap filter and I would love to know that my family was drinking fully purified water!

  423. Kelly says

    We would love to have a filter that takes out so much of the toxins!

  424. Candy says

    I have been looking at Berkeys for a long time. I would love to have a good source of pure water.

  425. Kristen says

    I would love to own a Berkey. I worry so much about all the toxins in tap water.

  426. savannah says

    Berkey’s are great!
    Without one, my son gets stomach cramps from the water. We take ours on vacation: it’s wonderful that they’re portable. I’ve had mine for about 3 or 4 years. The distributor from whom we bought replaced our filters free, even though I felt it was our own fault the filters separated from their base when the entire canister fell over in our car while driving around a corner.
    If I win one I’d give it to one of my sisters, both of whom have it on their “wish list.” Thanks for the opportunity and the great website.

  427. Jen says

    getting all that junk out of our water!

  428. Kathy says

    I would love to have a Berkey; for the health reasons and I bet the water tastes wonderful.

  429. Lea says

    We have well water and have farmland that borders our property. I don’t even want to know what kind of goodies are lurking around at the bottom of our well! Clean water I can truly trust to be clean would be great!

  430. Christy says

    I have been looking at the Berkey water filters for awhile. I like the idea of having clean water for herbal teas and infusions.

  431. Della Mowell says

    Would love to win this Berkey system! Our well water has “changed” and I really don’t care for the reverse osmosis setup… Currently using bottled and distilled. Need help!! Thanks for this timely info for a wonderful product!

  432. Lindsey says

    I have friends who love theirs.

  433. Gail says

    This would be awesome to win. I’m currently using a Brita water pitcher, and while I’m sure it’s better than nothing, the filter isn’t catching everything. Thanks for this opportunity!

  434. Maggie says

    I love the Bulk Herb Store. I wish there was a local store in my area so I could just spend hours browsing. I had never heard of the Berkey system but I want one!

  435. Alex says

    My partner and I use a Brita filter we acquired for free, since we’re broke college students. I think this is definitely an upgrade we need.

  436. Stephanie says

    I would love to win this! We use a small Zero Water filter, but it is very slow and only purifies a small amount of water at a time. Thanks for the chance to improve our drinking water!

  437. Amanda says

    The ease of use, purity and reuse ability!

  438. Lynn Larkin says

    Would love to win this system! I do not like the taste of tap water and do not trust bottled water. I am using a pur filter system right now and know it doesn’t get everything that it needs to be taken out of the water but figured it helps. I know the things they are adding to our water are not good for us and is causing alot of the medical problems my husband is having along with the medical problems everyone else in the world is having. We have a well but is unsafe to drink this would be perfect to have not only for the tap water to be filtered through but for the well water in time of emergency! I really want to win!

  439. Crystal Lail says

    Our city tap water is the nastiest stuff I’ve ever tasted, I hate to think about what is in it that makes it so horrible. We would love to win this!

  440. Rachel says

    My county decided to fluoridate the water, and my last two childrens teeth have suffered, and I am sure this is why. I”ve heard of collecting rain water, and looked for filter’s but unsure if these otc filters will filter out the flouride. I need to tackle this water issue to provide good health for my family.

  441. Teresa Burke says

    Love my Berkey, but would love a back up as well, hope I win!

  442. [email protected] says

    We’ve used a Berkey since 1999 and love it. We really need to get another one for our office. It is such a great product.

  443. Nichole says

    I would love to win! We can walk a couple blocks to a co-op and get great filtered water for $0.37/gallon so we haven’t gotten our own system yet, but it would save us some money & lots of time if I got one of these for free 😉

  444. mona davis says

    It would best benefit our family to assure safe drinking water.

  445. Kayla says

    My husband and I have looked at this system, but with a new baby on the way hopefully closing on a house soon its just not in the budget. Our water is so hard and yucky I would love to have one of these to help us in our journey to go off grid!

  446. Jozette says

    This is a super fluoride filtered water and I want all of my family using it!

  447. Lydia says

    I have been trying to figure out how to fit one in our budget, so I would be ecstatic to win!

  448. Joan Laufnick says

    I’d love to try this for my family. New Jersey just passed a law requiring all the water in the state be fluoridated! YUCK!!!

  449. Jennifer Cummings says

    Our water smells like sulfur and tastes awful. We have tried several water filtration systems over the years. I have seen the Berkey but the price has deterred me. I guess if you add up the price of all the bottled water over the years it wouldn’t seem like much. I would love to win one and get to enjoy fresh water w/o tons of plastic bottles waiting to be recycled. Thanks for offering the generous giveaway.

  450. Stephanie says

    This would be great! I am not sure that my water filter works all that well…

  451. FEAWGUITA says

    I wish I could win one!
    Nothing better than to have nice, clean, fresh, healthy water for the whole family.

  452. Debra says

    I would love most having the knowledge that the water I provide for my family for drinking and for creating our food is safe and pure.

  453. Diane says

    Wow! What an awesome product. We use a filtered pitcher and would love something like this. Thanks for the chance to win! Diane

  454. Mia Marie says

    I would be so excited for this, so that I can stop worrying about the quality of the tap water I am giving my family, vs. the destruction bottled water is doing to our planet.

  455. Linda says

    I love this system. Thank-you for offering it.

  456. Mike R says

    Having a Berkey water filtration system would be fantastic! I love this blog and all the helpful tips that we get!

  457. Cin Cool says

    I purchase a lot of bottled water, gallons and smaller ones. This would be awesome!

  458. Kristen says

    I’d love to win this for my dear friends. I already have a Berkey, and we love it. I’d buy one for everyone if I could. I can’t… so hoping to win this for my friends who haul filtered water home from the co-op each week and are raising two healthy, organic, attached young kids. Good luck to us!

  459. Monica says

    This is such a wonderful item. My DH has one at his work and raves about it. I have a thyroid condition and have to watch what I eat and drink. Something like this would really help out. Thank you!

  460. Christine Carlson says

    What I would love the most about this Berkey is knowing I am giving my family the best, cleanest drink on earth (next to natural spring water, of course!)

  461. Terrah says

    This is awesome! and my dogs and I would LOVE LOVE to win it!!! We drink a lot of water 😉

  462. jenny b says

    Living in what has been mountain top removal country and is also now quickly becoming fracking country, clean water is becoming more and more of a scarcity for us. would love to have a more reliable method to filter our water!

  463. Allie says

    This would be awesome. The standard water filters just do not get the bad taste out of our city water.

  464. makingmewell says

    Healthier Clean Water for my family

  465. Barbara says

    Andrea, many thanks to you and to the Bulk Herb Store for an opportunity to win the water filtering system. I would love to be more confident in the water that my family is drinking. What an awesome opportunity to have good, fresh, clean water! Again, many thanks! Am loving your blog and am learning so much! Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us all!

  466. Lydia says

    Not having to worry about crap in my water and hopefully getting the chance to start making my own fermented foods & drinks. 🙂

  467. Britny G. says

    What a great giveaway!! This sounds like exactly what we have been looking for. The water in our area is terrible.

  468. Kimberly Williams says

    I would love knowing that I would be able to provide clean drinking water for my family in emergencies.

  469. Robin Whiting says

    Clean fresh water is one of my biggest concerns thanks for the giveaway.

  470. Kika says

    I do already own a Berkey and unfortunately have had many issues with it which has been disappointing. Still, I did do my research and believe that it is one of the best. I also use the fluoride filters which increase the benefits.

  471. Elizabeth Winsor says

    This is all new to me but anything i can do to protect my family, I am sooooo interested in. Thank you so much for the blog, I am learning so much.

  472. cathy miller says

    Clean water!

  473. Robin Hawkins says

    One of these would be great to have!

  474. Amanda Jones says

    Wow…this is so great Having fresh clean water anytime would be amazing!

  475. Nichole Rouse says

    I typically don’t drink water for a number of reasons ……… trace pharmecutical drugs, don’t like the taste, don’t like plastic and many other reasons. I know it is good for me but so hard to do. I think possibly owning this system would increase my ability to drink water. MAY BE.

  476. Evelyn says

    I have been on field trips to our water treatment facility…worst field trips ever! My children and I have been trying to live more sustainably, frugal, green and crunchy, this amazing filter system is definately not in our budget but, would be amazing to have! Thanks for hosting such a great giveaway!

  477. Kate Smith says

    I would love to have one to remove the fluoride from our water! 🙂

  478. Karen says

    I would love to have a way to provide the best quality water for my family. 🙂

  479. Melissa says

    I have city water, and every year I get a little “report card” of the water quality. It lists all the things in the water, most of which are things I do not want to put in my body. But the report card tells me that “It’s okay, the traces are so minute that it poses no health risk.” I’m sorry, I don’t care what “minute” or “allowable” quantities they are. I don’t want them in my water, period!

  480. Alyssa B. says

    We’ve been working towards healthier food and a healthier house…this would be a great addition, since I haven’t gotten to the water yet (we use reverse osmosis, but it’s a pain to go buy it)!

  481. Rebekah says

    I would LOVE to own a Berkey! We have been looking at buying one and well winning one would make it sooooooo much better! We are like everyone working our way to a healthier lifestyle! Thanks for the opportunity to *maybe* win one! 🙂

  482. Shawn B says

    Good clean water!

  483. Stacy Corder says

    We get hurricanes and the water system can be contaminated, so a Berkey Water filter would be a godsend. I’d love to see how well it works and whether I could replace my sinktop filter with one.

  484. KP says

    This would be awesomely convenient to have!

  485. Kelly says

    While I know that I *should* drink water, I have yet to find a filter that I am happy with and is affordable so I can drink water without the added taste from the extras. I have wanted a Berkey for a while, but with a large family it hasn’t been practical thus far. 🙁 Hoping I win one!

  486. Linda @ Linda's Lunacy says

    We have city water, so I would very much like having some fresh, clean water from a Berkey. We have a store bought pitcher filter, and it seems like we have to fill it up every 5 mintues. Having almost 3 gallons of filtered water sitting on the counter would also be such a time saver for our family. And we would save money on buying the filters!

  487. Vanessa says

    I would love to have clean water for my family!

  488. Mindy says

    We would love being able to have water that tasted good. Our city water is really bad, even sometimes we are told you need to boil it first. My aunt has a Berkley, and it is wonderful! I’ve been wanting one for a while!

  489. Francie says

    What excites me the most about it would be that it’s better than other filters. And I’d have enough water to cook with, too.

  490. Pamela Winchell says

    What excites me most? Being prepared, having a secure source of clean water, and keeping my family healthy!

  491. Katie says

    Being able to drink truly clean water!! 🙂

  492. Miranda says

    Clean water! YAY! so many people are sick these days from the water they drink. This sounds awesome!

  493. Mary Jane says

    Clean water without excessive waste!

  494. Julia says

    What a generous givaway! I would LOVE to try a Berkey! Been battling many health issues and hormone imbalances – I wish more people understood the effects of EVERYTHING we put into our bodies. Especially the stuff we can’t see and don’t know about it. Good clean water is fundemental to good health! Thank you for this offer:)

  495. Amy says

    We have a standard water filter pitcher that we use religiously (and refill too many times a day to count), despite knowing it doesn’t do everything we want or need. As you stated in the article, it’s what we have. A wonderful product like the Berkey would be a enormous blessing for my family. With more and more contaminants being found in our water and food supplies, we have to do everything possible to keep our families healthy. The knowledge of clean, pure, water being available would be a wonderful step in that direction.

  496. jeff says

    Clean water! It would help my wife with her health challenges

  497. Stacy says

    Large quantities of clean water is what excite me most about this filter system! We have a very small filter in our house that has to be replaced a lot. This would be a huge blessing!

  498. jeannie says

    Peace of mind. I have concerns about the current water filter I am using,(It attaches under the sink and the filters leave a lot to be desired) and find after research the Berkley would handle these concerns, I also like that it does this without electricity. Yeah for clean water. Thank you for the opportunity Bulk Herb Store, Berkley and Andrea.

  499. DIANA says

    With Berkley filter system, you could drink river water, say if the world goes into survival mode. Nothing to install at the sink.

  500. laura motz says

    our water is horrible. it makes my childrens skin peel off, hair dry out, dishes look aweful with a nasty film eats pipes and washers (in the spigot). tried to get a purification system was told they wont work in my area it destroys their equiptment. I smell bleach when I run water and it scares me.

  501. Audrey says

    We go to the store and get our 5 gallon bottles refilled.
    I am sure that water is nothing more than glorified tap
    Water. This would be so much healthier and we wouldn’t
    Have to go anywhere to get it 🙂

  502. Susan H says

    I’d love to ditch my Brita pitchers for a Berkey!

  503. samW says

    would just love to be confident that the water I’m giving my kids is as good as it can be

  504. Sue says

    I have been looking to purchase a Berkey. I am glad to know you are enjoying yours.

  505. Jeff says

    would love to have one

  506. Lisa B. says

    It would be great and refreshing to have a tall glass of fresh, healthy water. Thanks for the opportunity to receive a great product. 🙂

  507. Caitlin Jacobs says

    My family drinks a lot of water and also uses a lot to make tea and cook with. A Berkley would be a great addition to out kitchen. I can’t drink the water from the tap or refridgerator because of the chemicals and taste, and I can’t bring myself to but bottled water, so I end up not drinking as much water as I need to. The Berkley would help me reach my RDI of water!!

  508. elysse says

    I have been wanting a Berkey for some time to provide safe water for my family.

  509. Kellie says

    Being able to filter out all the crud from our water would be great! My teenage daughter has bad spots on her teeth from flouride. I worry about my 2 younger boys having the same problem.

  510. Stephanie says

    I’m getting married in a few months, and it’s really important to me to start off our new life making the right choices about our health. Pure, clean water is a great way to do that!

  511. Jenn says

    I have been practically losing sleep about what is in our drinking water. We have a regular filter in our fridge, but I am not sure how reliable it really is. We have 4 kids and I want to make sure they aren’t getting all those toxins when they drink. I have been considering reverse osmosis but that is sooooo expensive. I will certainly be looking into the Berkey.

  512. Rachel @ The Henway says

    I hate our well water. It smells and leaves me with an upset stomach. Filtration pitchers just dont cut it, and I’m tired of buying jugs of water! I’d love to try this system out!!!!

  513. Toni says

    No more worrying about the water source at our house.. 🙂

  514. Abigail Walsh says

    I would have to say having actual CLEAN water. Where I live the level of chemicals in the water make a glass of water give you cotton mouth so I’ve resorted to bottled water.

  515. Linda S. says

    I really really need to have water free of fluoride and other toxins for health reasons. This filter is one of the only products that will do this!

  516. Heather says

    We’re currently going through a nutritional healing process ~ switching to traditional foods and working to add more probiotic foods into our lives. This would help so much, since city water isn’t the best for making ferments. 🙂

  517. Anthony says

    I love clean water! Sign me up!

  518. Tami says

    Would be great to own one of these and have super clean water! Thanks!!

  519. Teresa Wood says

    I’d love to have the berkley to filter my water before I alkaline it – we have a water pitcher to make it alkaline. Alkaline water is a good thing!

  520. Emily Murnen says

    I would love to know that I have good clean water!

  521. Rhonda H says

    LOVE, LOVE, LOVE to win this! Thanks for your great site!

  522. Linda says

    I would love to have the Berkey filter system to have good tasting water to drink. This might help me drink more water! 😎

  523. Heather K says

    I would love to be able to filter out all the chemicals & additives…we drink a LOT of water!

  524. Amber says

    I WOULD LOVE LOVE LOVE to have a great water filter in our home! THANK YOU for the chance!

  525. Jean says

    I would be most excited to know that my family is drinking the purest water we can get!!

  526. Ashley S says

    So that I can give my children pure wonderful water without fear of giving them dangerous things.

  527. Amelia Bonilla says

    So mad to hear that San Diego barely passed the water quality inspection! Hope to have safer water soon!

  528. Amber Eames says

    What excites me the most? CLEAN WATER! 😀

  529. Melissa H says

    What a wonderful giveaway! We SO need a filter for our home! Thank you!

  530. Bernice Henry says

    I would love to have fresh clean water.

  531. Ivy says

    Clean wonderful water!

  532. kelly tillotson says

    i have been saving up my “swagbucks” on amazon to buy a berkey but im verryyyyyy far off. its been on my wishlist ever since i made a commitment for healthy living for myself and my family. the water here where i live in texas is HORRIBLE! im from New England and we had yummy fresh spring water….there is such a difference
    this would make me so happy! thanks for the chance!

  533. Chelle says

    What an awesome idea! We live in an area where we constantly get warnings in the water bill, so even a filter on the sink doesn’t make us feel very comfortable.

  534. Carrie says

    I’d love to be able to have this system and have fresh water so readily available for my family.

  535. carole says

    i would really love to win this! I need a good filter!

  536. KarinSDCA says

    A Berkley???? Ah, that would be heaven!!!!!!!!!!

  537. Jane Sweet says

    I would love to have one, we have terrible water where I live.

  538. Melissa says

    Wow! How great is it that this is a giveway! What a great way of making our house more healthy! This is something that I definetly would want! This is very generous and thank you for the oppertunity!

  539. Chele says

    This has been on our list forever and I am excited about getting a chance to win one! 🙂

  540. lorraine says

    never heard of this filter system until now and reading the info really got me wanting one

  541. Denise says

    This would be fabulous to win. We drink a ton of water and having a filter like this would be wonderful.

  542. Beth says

    My new year’s resolution was to drink more water because I really don’t get enough. I have been doing better, but it’s hard because my city’s water isn’t the best tasting. I use a Brita filter, but they really aren’t very economical, and honestly, I don’t know how well they work. I would love to have a system like this that would allow me to drink lots of yummy water – and to ensure that my kitties drink yummy water too!

  543. Jill Greene says

    It would be rather cool to have a portable potable water system! Our water is barely tolerable; I would love to win!

  544. Starr maples says

    I’ve been looking into water filteration systems latley…it would be really great to WIN one!

  545. Maritza says

    Awesome!! I hope I win! 🙂

  546. Amanda says

    What a great giveaway! It would be amazing to win.

  547. Rebel says

    Wow! I have never seen this system but it looks fantastic! Just what my family and I need in order to be certain we are having fresh, clean, pure water all the time. Thank you for the opportunity!
    Be well. 🙂

  548. Jacqueline Heckathorne says

    I have been wanting to get a filter of some type, just not sure which one. There are rusty pipes in this house we are renting so we really need some type of filter. I will be keeping eyes on winning this filter, since I don’t have the money right now to buy a filter of my own and then I won’t have to buy bottled water anymore.

  549. Nicole Roberts says

    Great water filters! After a week straight of dirty water due to road construction this is exactly what we need.

  550. Roxanne says

    Great giveaway! I’ve admired Berkeys for a long time.

  551. Kathi says

    It would be so awesome to win. Good luck to everyone.

  552. Melanie G says

    My dad is always urging me to use fresh water and this would make it possible. I would love to win one. Thanks for the opportunity.

  553. Alyssa says

    I have been wanting to find a way to get rid of fluoride in our water! 🙂

  554. Morgan says

    What a neat little system. We’re about to be on well water, but I could still see this being really handy for camping!

  555. Brighid says

    Would be so thrilled to win this! Also glad to know it’s available should I suddenly have that kind of extra dough around…

  556. Patrick Cartwright Jr says

    These filters from what I have read are the best filters on the market! I am amazed at them, and hope that I can win, so my family can stop buying bottled water!

  557. Jacqueline says

    Owning a Berkey Water Filter would make a world or difference in my home because I am currently unable to filter out chlorine – an exciting prospect for my family’s health! Thank you!

  558. Susan Herlan says

    Thankyou so much for this giveaway! What excites me most about this giveaway is the ability to have fresh, healthy clean water to drink! We have horrible water that not only stinks but also taste bad..I buy our water at the moment. Need this filter system so bad! I would drink more water if I won this!

  559. this_kid says

    I’d like to win! As someone who’s moved around quite a bit in the U.S. and Central America, I can say that clean, unpolluted drinking water is something I feel everyone should to have access to.

  560. Julie Brown says

    I would to win this and get clean water! I have a friend who has one and I’ve admired ever since she got it. Thanks for the entry!

    • Claudia says

      What excites me is that is a way to get clean, great tasting water. Also that you do not have to use electricity to get the water is a great plus. We got to be green and frugal as much as we can.

  561. Zakiyyah says

    I’d LOVE to win! I have 5 kids and right now I buy filtered water from the store, but it would be great to have a system in my house!!

  562. Karie says

    We would LOVE to have this! I think we all take for granted the ability to have clean drinking water – but how clean is it really?

  563. Laura Marron says

    Tonight, my husband & I were just talking about getting a water purifying system! We would love love love to win this!!!

  564. Angela Y says

    The idea of water purification while retaining the good minerals is absolutely wonderful and something I didn’t even know was possible!! This is something i would gladly put on my counter! Thanks to you and the company for the chance to win one!! ANd for bringing it to my attention so that if I don’t win I can buy one(after I save up;)!!

  565. Jessica says

    I am fascinated by this product and the special filters, because all of the research I have done about removing fluoride says it’s not possible with out reverse osmosis. I am frankly tired of lugging home jugs of water every week and would love an in-home system. We don’t have room under our sink to put in a RO system of our own, so I have been resolve to getting RO from my local health food store. Great giveaway!

  566. Rewa says

    CLEAN water is peace of mind!

  567. Jennifer Halenbeck says

    We have a well, and the pump is failing. That stirs up the bottom dirt, consequently causing our water to be impure for a number of days each time the pump fails. A Berkey would assure us that we were drinking clean water. It would be a thrilling thing to win!

  568. Kim says

    I would love to have a Berkley!

  569. Brianne says

    my in-laws have something like this and it’s fabulous! I’d love to have one of these.

  570. Monica Card says

    Would love to be able to stop buying water in plastic bottles, but our towns system hasn’t passed their own tests for bacteria limits in years! And it tastes horrible!

  571. Carol Brown says

    Clean water is very important to me. I’d love to win this!

  572. Dinisha says

    I love being healthy and green!

  573. Valerie says

    I’d love to have a great water filtering system!

  574. Rebecca S. says

    I would love to win this! The most exciting thing about it, to me, is that my kids would be able to get their own clean and delicious water so easily!

  575. Tracy gray says

    would really love to have this..very useful

  576. Casey says

    Providing clean, healthy water for my family would be amazing 🙂

  577. belinda lacoste says

    WOW!!!! What a fabulous gift! Always on my list…we want, need, desire a Berkey! Thank-you for this opportunity! Blessings for all you share with us!

  578. Hannah Deacon says

    The Berkey is much needed in our home!!! We are currently in an area of the U.S. where they are fracking for natural gas. It has killed our water quality. We also have town water were they put flouride in the water. Happy Mother’s Day:)

  579. Meredith says

    I’ve seen the Berkey recommended on Sustainable Living websites I’ve visited. It would be great to own one.

  580. Karen Hauserman says

    I am so excited about this giveaway! Many years ago, when I had well water, I was using a tap filtration system to remove the impurities and improve taste, and even starting using a delivery system; however, I wasn’t using it for all the right reasons. Like everyone else, I was conditioned to believe that fluoride was essential to dental health. What a fool I was! In fact, for many years after that I continued to follow the masses (I was a sheeple) with the belief about this poison, and didn’t use a filter with my tap water. To make matters even worse, we were absorbing more fluoride by brushing our teeth with toothpaste that contained it. I couldn’t come up with a guess if I tried about how much we had consumed over the years. Honestly, with all the scientific proof out there about the damaging affects of fluoride, I cannot believe this chemical is still allowed in toothpaste, especially brands marketed to children. Even the ADA is pushing it, claiming it is necessary for us and our children. But as I have been improving my dietary intake through better food choices and consuming organics, resulting in a net weight loss of nearly 100 pounds in just over a year, not to mention feeling better than I have in over 20 years, I have received my wake-up call about fluoride. I now use toothpaste without it, and have been diligently trying to avoid tap water at all cost. I could really use this Berkey system. It definitely seems to be the best out there, and most cost-effective with return on investment as well. Thank you for the opportunity to be a part of this giveaway. Here’s to good health for us all!!! 😀

  581. carrie w says

    I would love to own a berkey so I wont have to buy filters all the time.

  582. Beverlee says

    The most exciting thing is getting rid of Fluoride, I have a 2 year old and I try and avoid it at all cost. I use a water filter now on my faucet as I haven’t bought bottled water in years. But to get rid of the fluoride would just be great!!

  583. Poor Man says

    My well cover is rotting and falling into the well! Sure would be nice to not have that rotten wood taste in my water!

  584. Resa G says

    What a great giveaway! Nothing like pure clean water! 🙂

  585. Divaeva says

    How awesome it would be to have this for my next power outage! <3 Great blog!!

  586. Janelle N says

    Awesome giveaway! Clean water rocks!

  587. LeeAnn Ander says

    water is my favorite drink and most important part in living healthily. Esp for my 70 yr old father too. We like to drink water. This would be amazing to try. Thank you! LeeAnn.

  588. Liz B. says

    I live in an area where we have to filter or buy our water during the summer months. This would be great!!!

  589. Dana says

    Thank you so much for the opportunity to win this!

  590. Alyce says

    Fluoride and other toxins are a concern for me- this would be a great addition to my kitchen!

  591. Chris Hollman says

    I grew up on country well water. I love fresh, cold water.

  592. Susie says

    Our family is trying to drink more water but it tastes so much of chemicals. This would be wonderful!

  593. Sedj says

    I need to get the fluoride out of my water. For my thyroid health. Desperately!!

  594. Kaley Davies says

    OMG! Thank you sooo much I too have been dreaming of a Burkey, fingers crossed wishing you alll the best of luck and thank YOU for offering the giveaway I have liked and shared this with my outstanding fans! Cheers all!

  595. Katie says

    What a huge weight off our shoulders it would be to stop worrying if the water our family drinks is actually safe and healthy. Thank you for the chance to win!

  596. Becky says

    $300 for a system that will run without electricity AND remove all the industrial nasties sounds like a steal. We’re using a cheap Brita on questionable city water at the moment. Only saving grace is we’re so far out in the boonies, I doubt the “city” does much during the treatment process!

  597. Pam says

    This is an awesome give-away! I’m also wary of the “extras” in town water…when I lived at my parents, it didn’t matter, b/c they only had well water (although I’m sure there are some extra minerals in there as well, but we didn’t get sick from it). I really miss fresh well water….should put that on my wish list! lol Thanks for a chance to win!

  598. Elaine Douglas says

    This would be amazing to win. it’s scary all of the things they are putting in our water and food. I’m trying to go as natural with everything as I possibly can.

  599. Miranda says

    I have YUCKY city water. It smells like bleach, tastes like bleach and i’m positive theirs flouride in it!!! I think that about says it all!!!

  600. angela says

    this is great!

  601. Jen says

    What an awesome giveaway, generous gift!!

  602. Cathy says

    I would be blessed to win this!

  603. Susannah says

    I’ve been saving for a Berkey!

    I’d love to own one of these for the simple fact that If I have to drink tap water, I don’t drink water at all. It’s terrible…my mom worked for Edmontons water and sanitation dept yrs ago and she tells me that often the water isn’t safe to drink but they don’t tell us…no duh since it tastes so bad! Lol. We drink culligan but it would be amazing not to have to lug the darn bottles of water home..mixed with the fact that home depot never has them in stock.

    The thought of having such a great water purification/filtration system would make me feel so much better about all of the water my husband and I drink! Brita filters only do so much for LA City water.

    This looks like it would be very easy to use. I like that it holds 2.75 gals of water. I drink more water if I have good water.

    I would have to say that it would save money in the long run. Our tap water is horrible, so we must buy our water.

  608. Sara says

    Seems safe and cute to me! Would love giving it a shot! I always need to drink more water!

  609. Jacqueline Fitzgerald says

    This looks great!! Our family drinks only water!! We currently just have a filter on the faucet, but with as much water as we drink we go through a lot!!! This would be wonderful!!

    Cool Blog, would b great to win.

    Filter out all the additives

    I would love to have a Berkey for my family’s health! I am working through mercury toxicity and my husband is trying to keep cancer at bay since he’s lost 3 of his immediate family members to the disease. We know having clean, pure water helps flush toxins out of our bodies and also agree with you that the Berkey is the best filter for the job!

  613. Marie says

    I would love to use one of these.

  614. Nancy Gallardo says

    My toddler seems to always be sick and I think adding pure water to his regimen would greatly help improve his immune system.

  615. Ginger says

    Nothing is more important than clean fresh water! I have been looking for a filtration system that removes all the chemicals and bacteria that Berkey does. What a wonderful opportunity and thanks for bringing this filtration system to our attention.

  616. K Espinosa says

    Clean water is essential

  617. Christina says

    I would love to have a water purification source that will work even during an emergency. I have two rain barrels and it rains here frequently, so to have a way to purify water if necessary would be awesome! We also camp a lot, and make roadtrips. I could see this getting a lot of use in our family.

  618. Denise C. Brenner says

    I would love to win one of these!! I usually buy the bottled water until recently when I learned of everything still in it. 🙁 This would solve all my water problems and I love that you dont need electric to run it!!

  619. DIANA says

    If you don’t win it….go out and buy one, these are excellent!!

  620. Beth says

    I would love to have something like this in my home. My children go through water like crazy!
