It does a nice job filtering tap water but it doesn''t work instantly. I find it tastes better if I let the water sit for a few hours before I drink it. The mouth of the bottle is a perfect size, slightly bigger than my Sigg. The shape of the bottle is cool and I''ve gotten a lot of compliments on it. I''ve also been asked questions like, "Is that a bong?" and "Is that a floating turd in your water?" After 2 weeks of use, there are pieces of the charcoal floating around in it, so I have to dump out that batch of water and start over. I think I''ll just start leaving it in the fridge so my boyfriend will drink out of it instead of putting his mouth on the brita pitcher.I''ve been using Bobbles for a couple of years now, and I love the idea of a water bottle with a built-in filter. That said, I''ve never loved the squirt bottle style. Enter the Black+Blum bottle! It has the built-in filter with a wide mouth to drink from.While it can be annoying that the water filtration isn''t instant, I actually find it works pretty well. I refill it when it gets down to 1/3 left in the bottle so I rarely am starting from scratch. I find that I''m able to use it all day long. It''s also great to refill right before bedtime to make sure you can start the day with a full, filtered bottle of water.
Pros:
Wide mouth
Built-in filter
Top seals well
Water tastes great when filtered
Filter can be repurposed after 6 months
Cons:
Flecks of charcoal can occur when water sits
Takes 1 hour for minimal filtering and 8 hours for full filtering...but the bottle itself is awesome. Great shape, the lid stays on tight but is easy to open. I actually look to make sure I have it before I leave the house. First rate.

Seriously. I can''t take this bottle out of my bag without someone talking about it and wanting one. My yoga instructor even asked me (during class) where I got it.I don''t have much to say about its filtration capabilities. I did fill it with tap water once and left it in the fridge overnight, and the water did taste better. But honestly, I usually put filtered water in it! I do, however, travel for work and when I do, I usually bring an empty water bottle with me to fill in the drinking fountain (yeah, I''m hardcore). So this bottle will be perfect for those circumstance where I can''t get filtered water.
The one little thing that was a little annoying is the metal clip on the top came off the bottle a few times. I had to tighten it by squeezing the two sides together and re-fastening it to the top. Hard to explain if you don''t have one. But it seems to have fixed the issue, so no big deal.Love this! Love the no-waste bottle. Holds plenty of water and best of all, the water really tastes great. And that little charcoal thing inside? You can re-use that for other purposes....very cool
