Or, you can get one of these and a dozen extra filters for the same price as a Berkey:

Thanks for the replies all, I'd been shying away from the Berkey system due to all of the failures they've had with the black filters - is anyone aware of concrete evidence that they've resolved the issues with these filters? I'd prefer to have the additional capability, but put reliability higher on the scale of importance.
No issues with our black filters. Fwiw

Are you referring to the recall several years ago? It was a one batch deal.
I wasn't aware they went through with a recall, only that there were numerous cases of the glue used to attach the candle to the plastic base was separating, allowing water to enter the bottom part of the unit without passing through the filter.
