I didn't buy the Berkey myself -- my son did, so he did the research and made the choice. It doesn't seem like there is anything substandard about it, but I'll pass on the comment.
mmbvd, I haven't put stream water in the filter as I have not had a water emergency. Like I said I had to live on boiled stream water for a period of my life and I was over it when that situation ended.
I don't like the taste of our County water at all, and prefer not to drink it unfiltered. I've been extremely pleased with the clean pure taste coming from the Berkey, as a big step up from Brita and other filters that are only rated for use on potable water.
