This is the second large capacity carafe that I buy and the second that breaks. It is very convenient for many families. By cons, the plastic is too thin at the handle. When the jug is full, do not settle out of the refrigerator by simply holding it by the handle. Given the approximate weight of 3 kilos content when filled, plastic yield. So you have to keep one hand underneath to prevent it from falling on the feet. This is the second pitcher who gives so. Too bad! Finally, I bought 2 Brita jugs of smaller size and are also easier to store in the fridge.
