Yes these are very popular down under (I thought they would be in the US as
well). They come in a number of varieties here, so I thought you might value these observations based on our experience with various types: The steel as in the picture will rust/corrode eventually around the top edge (I suppose this would depend on what's in the water to some extent). Didn't look nice in the kitchen - outside always looked grubby despite attempts to keep it clean. RRP about A$120 Terracotta - as this is porous it kept the water very cool. Over time (a couple of years) the outside surface corroded. Due to the two piece construction it was very awkward to clean. It was very heavy. RRP A$199 Our current model is fully glazed ceramic (inside and out) - easy to clean and doesn't (hasn't yet) corroded or pitted. Our model just has the single filter. It contains 8 litres and the filters last about 4 months (depending on how crappy your water is) and cost A$20 to replace. This is a one piece model - there is a heavy duty plastic insert that holds the filter and unfiltered water inside. Is easy to remove and clean. My wife and I have not yet detected any 'plastic' taste in the filtered water. And if my wife drinks it, you can trust me there is no plastic or other unwanted tastes/smells ;-) RRP A$108 Just my 2c worth.
