Hey, that's another advantage. I no longer have to carry that heavy box full of glass bottles from my car to my appartment! Now I just need to find a good glass bottle I can refill every day ...

There are some really nice bottles made from recycled aluminum that work great. I have three at home but I can't remember the brand name. LL Bean sells them in the US.

What is wrong with it?

Nothing is wrong with it. A Brita or Pur filter device (pitcher or tap attachment) does a fine job of removing bad stuff from the water and greatly decreases the number of plastic or glass bottles you have to recycle. Recycling is great but it still uses resources. If you can use something that gets you good tasting, clean water and reduce the amount of resources you use, then that is even better.
And I don't trust the quality of the water in most bottled water. There have been far too many scams with people selling tap water or hose water as designer water.
I would rather replace my filter once every three months. But that is me.
