LifeStraw Silicone Base Pebble 10 cup

It seems to me, that the base should be already on the pitcher when you buy it, especially considering it's such an important and integral part of the process. I understand that the filters are a separate purchase, and you have to buy them repeatedly. But having to buy the silicone base of the water pitcher separately is scrooge-like. I did buy it because it stabilizes the pitcher. It is designed to fit well and it does fit perfectly, goes on easily. But really.

Fits perfectly with my new water pitcher.

Excellent quality. Fits well.

I did not know this base existed when I originally purchased my LifeStraw pitcher, it showed up as a suggestion one day. The pitcher itself is not very durable and cracked numerous times at the bottom. I was gluing the bottom of the pitcher from its leaking and eventually gave up and held the filter unit above another container. I was just about to throw away the pitcher when I saw this and ordered it as a last resort. It worked! My pitcher no longer leaks! It should be included with the purchase of every pitcher instead of being a separate purchase.

After reading several reviews, it sounds like there is a risk of your pitcher cracking if you do not put one of these on. It fit well and we've been happy with it so far. It really should have come with the pitcher but glad to have it.
