PUR PPT110WA Filter Pitcher Review
Our verdict
The PUR PPT110WA is a bottle-style activated carbon filter pitcher priced at $51.63, earning a 4.4-star average from 513 reviews. It offers PUR's carbon filtration approach in a narrower bottle format, though the listed capacity of 11 fluid ounces is so small it almost certainly reflects a data entry error rather than the actual pitcher volume.

513 owner reviews, fewer than most models here
The overall score is owner satisfaction weighted by how many reviews back it, so a high rating from few reviews counts for less. The bars below show where this model stands against the other water filtration: replacement filters, under-sink and reverse osmosis systems, filter pitchers, water dispensers, coolers, faucet filters and softeners we track in this category on price, popularity and size. Context, not marks against it, and our read of the data, not a lab test.
Overview
['The PUR PPT110WA uses activated carbon filtration and comes in a bottle-style container format, measuring 11.4 x 4.9 x 10.4 inches. That footprint is similar to other standard countertop pitchers. The activated carbon method is designed to reduce chlorine taste and odor and may help reduce certain organic compounds.', "One notable data anomaly: the listed capacity is 11 fluid ounces, which is far smaller than any practical pitcher in this category. This is very likely a product data error. Buyers should verify the actual capacity directly on PUR's website or the Amazon listing before purchasing, particularly if volume per fill matters to their use case.", 'At 513 reviews and a 4.4-star rating, the PPT110WA has a moderately positive but limited feedback record. No third-party certification appears in the available data. The $51.63 price point puts it against well-established alternatives from Brita and other PUR models with far more reviews at comparable or lower prices.']

Performance notes
The PPT110WA uses activated carbon filtration, designed to reduce chlorine taste and odor and may help reduce certain organic compounds. No NSF or equivalent certification is listed. The 11-fluid-ounce capacity figure in the product data appears to be a data entry error and should not be used to judge the pitcher's real fill volume. Confirm actual capacity from PUR's current product page before buying.
What buyers say
With 513 ratings at 4.4 stars, early buyers are positive. The review count is low enough that the score may shift as more owners weigh in over time. No clear pattern of serious complaints is evident from the available data, but the limited sample warrants some caution.

Frequently asked questions
Is the 11-fluid-ounce capacity accurate for the PUR PPT110WA?
Almost certainly not. An 11-fluid-ounce capacity would be impractically small for a standard filter pitcher, and the physical dimensions of 11.4 x 4.9 x 10.4 inches suggest a full-sized pitcher. This appears to be a product data entry error. Verify the real capacity on PUR's website or the current Amazon listing before buying.
How does activated carbon filtration work in PUR pitchers?
Activated carbon filtration passes water through a porous carbon medium. The large surface area of activated carbon adsorbs chlorine and certain organic compounds, which reduces taste and odor issues common in tap water. It is not designed to remove dissolved minerals, heavy metals, or microbiologicals unless the filter is specifically rated and certified for those contaminants.
Are PUR replacement filters easy to find for this model?
PUR filters are widely stocked at major grocery chains, big-box stores, and online retailers. However, PUR sells several filter models, so confirm the exact compatible filter for the PPT110WA from PUR's website before buying replacements. Using the wrong filter type can reduce filtration effectiveness.
