ZeroWater's 32 cup pitcher is valued for pushing water to near zero total dissolved solids, but the comments focus just as much on its quirks and upkeep. The gravity filter can trap air bubbles and stall mid fill, though the issue can sometimes be worked around by keeping the filter submerged or shaking it loose. Filter life and cost are recurring concerns, with reports of sour or fish smelling water when cartridges wear out. The older pitcher also appears tied to phased out filters after the Culligan acquisition, making replacement compatibility a key consideration.

I don't recommend this model. It creates a vacuum and traps air bubbles inside the filter itself. That causes the water to stop filtering at random points in the reservoir depending on where the bubbles are trapped, leaving unfiltered water in the tank. That sucks if you want to fill up big bottles of water, only to find out that there isn't enough water filtered before the bubbles prematurely stopped it.

Warning: This is the old model of Zero Water and is only compatible with their old filters, which are being phased out. They were bought by Culligan and use a new/different type of filter that is not compatible with the old pitchers and dispensers.

I've owned mine for about 8 months now. Never had this issue. I don't pre-load the filter at all but I suspect holding the filter under the faucet before installing it would solve your issue.

I have this same one and have this issue also. It eventually filters all the water by the following day.

I do not recommend this. Filters expire too quickly. Water starts tasting sour. The height is too low that the water filters too slow. (I used it for approx 6 months after Brita for 20 years. I am back to brita)

Brita doesn't filter much at all except using charcoal for taste. Try testing it with your zero water meter. It won't even be close to zero.

Are there any 3rd Party filters for ZeroWaters? Their proprietary filters are crazy expensive and they actually filter too so I was wondering if there are any aftermarket filters for them with similar filtration quality.

I like the zerowater system. I didn't know they were bought out and they no longer are going to make compatible filters for older systems. There are 3rd party options but from what I was reading, they didn't produce 0 TDS water for very long. I have a few filters in backup and then I suppose I'll have to upgrade or move onto another brand.

Bought one a while back and it was great for a couple weeks. Then the water started smelling strongly of fish, getting worse every day until we couldn't stand it anymore. Google it and you'll find a lot of folks talking about how it's a lottery whether you'll get a filter that does it or not. Attempted politely contacting their customer service multiple times and was ignored completely, not sure if they even actually have a CS department. To anyone who's had good experiences with the filters I'm happy for you but the chance is definitely there.

You're right about the standard Brita filter, but the Brita Elite filter removes all the stuff most people would want to (lead, mercury, benzene, etc.) while leaving essential minerals alone (the ZeroWater removes everything to the point that you should consider re-mineralizing water that's been filtered through a ZeroWater).

ZeroWater is generally very good, but recent tests have shown it increases the amount of microplastics in the water. I recommend Googling it. I stopped using mine after reading that.

It is a design issue of all these type of reservoirs, it can happen on any brand of similar type. the only way to ensure you don't get water bubbles is to constantly have the filter fully submerged which can't happen if you take water out.

That is how I wok mine. Simply don't take out more then a gallon or so at a time. Take some out, take some out, take some out... fill it up. But I've also ran it dry a few times and never had the issue. If this were a problem with all gravity fed systems, you'd think all the major brands would not be selling millions of them.
