Description
xThe BRITA Metro 6-cup water filter pitcher delivers cleaner, better-tasting tap water with an accurate SmartLight indicator and a compact, fridge-friendly design.
The BRITA Metro pitcher is a small, BPA-free water filter system built for everyday use. It uses a Brita Standard filter (included) to reduce chlorine taste and odor plus metals like copper, mercury and cadmium, while the SmartLight filter-change indicator helps you know exactly when to replace the cartridge. The compact 6-cup shape fits most refrigerator doors and mini-fridges, making filtered water convenient without taking up counter space.
How does this pitcher improve the taste of tap water?
The pitcher employs a certified Standard filter to reduce substances that affect flavor and odor, giving you cleaner-tasting water straight from the tap. Filtration happens quickly so there’s no long wait and fewer single-use bottles are needed.

- Removes metals such as copper, mercury and cadmium
- Standard filter life: about 40 gallons or ~2 months
- One Standard filter can replace up to 300 single-use 16.9 oz bottles
Will it fit in my fridge and how easy is it to refill?
The Metro’s slim, 6-cup profile is designed for small spaces and most refrigerator doors, including mini-fridges. The easy-fill lid lets you refill without removing the entire top, making daily use fast and spill-free.

How do I know when to replace the filter and what are my options?
Brita’s SmartLight filter indicator measures filter life and alerts you when replacement is recommended—typically every 40 gallons or about two months under average use. You can use Standard filters included with the pitcher or upgrade to Elite filters for longer life.
- SmartLight provides precise filter-change reminders
- Standard filter: ~40 gallons (~2 months) per cartridge
- Elite filter option extends life to ~120 gallons (~6 months)
- Standard filters fit most Brita pitchers and dispensers (except Stream)
How does switching to Brita reduce waste and cost?
Using a Brita pitcher cuts the need for single-use plastic bottles and lowers household spending on bottled water. Each Standard filter replaces up to 300 typical 16.9 oz bottles, reducing plastic waste and the environmental footprint of your drinking water choice.
- Reduces single-use plastic by replacing bottled water
- One Standard filter equals up to 300 bottles saved
