Royal Berkey Water Filter Set - Berkey is one of the best-selling brands of water filters and purification systems around the world and is recommended by several health magazines, laboratories and independent health websites. There are millions of satisfied customers around the world.
Berkey water filters filter out more than 99.9% of chlorine, viruses, bacteria, cysts, drug residues, parasites and dangerous chemical contaminants. Heavy metals are filtered out for 95% (up to almost 100% even with fluoride and arsenic filters). This preserves the essential minerals your body needs.
The Royal Berkey water filter comes with 2 original Black Berkey filter elements and can be extended to four elements. Black Berkey filter elements use the latest technological developments in water purification. Berkey water filters are therefore considered the best and most durable water filtration systems on the market and are the best-performing portable water filters. The Black Berkey filter elements have been tested by an independent laboratory according to NSF/ANSI standards 42 and 53. See the laboratory report for more details.
The unit has a capacity for about 12.3 litres of water, more than enough for most needs. You can do about 10 years with the filters, which means you'll quickly earn back the device compared to other water filters.
The casing is made of polished stainless steel (304), which is the longest lasting stainless steel on the market. Stainless for life.

Great product, as expected
Works easily and well
Easy to install, cannot go wrong. Supplied very complete including dye test.
After 14 days of using the Berkey Royal, I can say that I find it and top device. Lovely soft water that I easily drink 3 litres a day from. Hopefully I will be doing this for many years to come.
Lovely water we drink now!
Works fine. Just got it so can't report too much about it otherwise. Looks nice!
Great service, clear Dutch description, and on the phone very friendly and helpful! Really take the time for you, thank you! I am very happy with my Berkey.
Fast delivery and we are extremely happy with the Berkey!
Wonderfully beautiful high-quality product!
Fast delivery, top product. Handwritten note attached, top.
Nice product works well and also good manual on the net in a video
Super nice service, questions you can ask and always answer. Fine delivery. Unsolicited advice which is very welcome and very useful at the time of installation. Which, by the way, is easy. Very happy with the berkey!
Great service! Great products
At the end of last year, I bought this set. Before doing so, had extensive contact with the seller as I had quite a few practical questions. These were answered very patiently and at length and really fine advice given.
Fine personal attention the salespeople know where they are going. For service a big 5! Also a personal card with the package when it was delivered, that personal touch makes it complete.
Back to the device. I give that one 4 stars because, in my view, it still has some design flaws. Therefore, a 4 star and not a 5.
- the upper part there always remains a bottom of unfiltered water. Simple modification with something like double bottom would solve this very simply. That means that when you refill, you always have older water, which you have to throw out once anyway. Extra action every time you want to top up.
- lower part you cannot empty completely. The tap is higher than the bottom, so old water remains here too if you don't empty this. Simple modification in the design could prevent this.
- So to get the last "bit" (which is easily over a litre) out, you actually have to take off the upper part and manually empty the lower part. Another option is to tilt the whole thing and leave the tap open, but believe me, that is not recommended. Also no idea whether this is good for the filters so that's why I don't do the latter.
- the water is not chilled of course. We were used to tapping cold water directly from the American fridge. That won't work here. Solution to make large ice cubes ourselves and add them to lower section. The latter works fine, but also requires extra handling. Tip, use large ice cubes, small ones melt much faster.
- For that money, you would expect the stainless steel tap to be included as standard, unfortunately this has to be bought separately. Unbelievable that they still sell this with a plastic tap....
- priming was tricky with the cap, what a fiddle. I ended up doing it with the primer tool I bought with it. That took me hours, probably because of my clumsiness. It was a bit of a struggle, unfortunately. Fortunately, everything works fine now.
I give the filtered water a big 5, and would not want to go back to unfiltered water. Build quality is also super, I give that a 5 as well.
Further considerations:
- sight glass is unnecessary in my view because , as the advice was also, you can quickly sense how much is left in the reservoir. This is right! I didn't take this one either. Also because then you were stuck with a plastic tap.
- I did include a stainless steel tap, and that is a no brainer. I would always replace the original plastic tap for this
- the holder is incredibly handy, makes filling your glass easy. Costs a bit more but is very practical.
I am now waiting for the berkey go until those come back in stock, because for holidays or on the road, I want to be able to filter easily. Hope those become available again soon.
fast service and good product.
Reliable and personal webshop: offers beautiful products! The products arrived undamaged, well-packaged and with handwritten card. Very happy with them!
I myself bought a Berkey water filter. Nice set at a nice price, exactly what I was looking for. Packed neatly and delivered quickly. Received a handwritten personal card while unpacking. Very thoughtful! Definitely recommended.
Very good and fast service!
Sweet self-written card with it. Very happy with mn berkey
Very satisfied with the purchase and fast sevice
It would have been nice if the product came with Dutch instructions.
Great customer service and products!
Good contact, keeps appointments. Keep you well informed about the order. And are friendly.
Nice looking water filter! And the operation is great 🙂
Lovely soft and flavourful water. I don't want anything else! The difference is really noticeable. Everyone who tastes it is amazed at the lovely smooth taste. Even my grandchildren now only want to drink "Granny Water" 😉
And you can't fool small children anyway, so they really taste the difference.
I now drink nothing else, and so use this water for coffee ( better taste), tea (better taste) and cooking as well.
Easy to install, kind of plug&play.
Easy to maintain.
Top product, hope to enjoy it for a long time to come.
