yes, it depends on the water quality. the water in europe is much worse than in asia. so usually the britta should only be used maybe 6x. in japan you could use it longer.
but it depends although on your using patterns.
but we did the tests, after washing out, the filter is as good as new.
anyway, we just wanted to show you that it is technically possible to clean the filter.
Oh, I know. I was just messign with you. Brita's will get out most metals and organics as long as the filter is fresh. ion exchange filters, which you mentioned, are key too.
