Several reviews have claimed that these filters are a total waste, blah blah blah. If they feel their water doesn't need filtration, then I should think they should simply not use a filter and not complain.

Some of us, on the other hand, live in areas where the tap water tastes downright vile--this is certainly the case where I live. I used to buy bottled water for the sole purpose of making coffee. These filters, though, have saved me time and money--yes, they really work! Since I bought the Mr Coffee coffee maker last year, I can use tap water and have coffee without the unpleasant taste of chlorine. This was certainly not the case before.

As to the price, I've paid just as much for two filters (as opposed to six) in stores, and what Amazon charges is much more reasonable than any other price I've seen for this item on line.

I like my Kona coffee fresh tasting and chemical filled tap water can ruin that.

These little filters do a great job of improving the taste of regular tap water.
Sure, they are pricey, but I've found I can go for a few months using just one rather than change it out every month as Mr. Coffee recommends. There are alternatives to them as well, like using pref-iltered water or bottled water, but costs doing it that way can add up as well.

Overall, a decent product if you can stomach the price.
BTW, as of writing this, the 2-packs are actually cheaper to purchase than the 6pk (going by unit cost). But for some reason the shipping is a $1 more for the 2-pack! Solution: Buy 3 2-pack refills in one order and you save yourself about $2 over the cost of buying just the one 6-pack.

I know others say this product does nothing, but IMHO if you have crappy water like we do it really helps. We have really poor tasting water and this filter makes a huge difference. They recommend you use it for 1 month, but we only change it once every three months. Really worth it, you can see the crud collected on the filter too.

I can't beleive what people are charging for these filters.
They are cheaper at WAL-Mart. ~$4 for a two pack. That's $12 for a 6 pack.

Product not the same as that provided with original machine. These appear to be sub-standard. They work but are not as durable nor do they seem to be as thick.

When I ordered these Mr. Coffee Water Filter Replacements, I believed that I was getting the identical Mr. Coffee Water filter type that came with the Coffee Maker. What I received was 6 - very cheap filters that look like grey cardboard. The company's receipt states "no returns". What a rip off! I was hugely dissapointed, as it was a complete waste of money.

These are the replacement water filter disks for Mr. Coffee makers. I so dislike having to go into the big box stores that I when I'm forced to, I'll buy a year's supply (twelve). Like other reviewers, over the years, I've also found that the filters last for more than a month, and I'll go to over 3 months between disk replacements. This time I let Amazon do the work and ordered them through Mr. Coffee Water Filter Replacements (6 Filters) While the photograph shows six individual filters, they actually arrive in the standard two filters per package, you're used to buying from the big box stores. The price, shipping charges, and speed of delivery (about 4 days from order to arrival) made this well worth the cost. Each individual has their own coffee taste, and these filters make it worth while for me to fully enjoy my morning cup of Joe.

i agree with doctor mod if you don't feel the need to filter water for coffee then don't.

but, i can tell you from my work experience at a big box coffee house chain is that our water is triple filtered for all of the drinks we make. we have customers who want to emulate our coffee at home. our customers go to great lengths to try and emulate our coffee....they buy various coffee beans and various expensive machines..and still come back to us because in their words "they can not duplicate the taste/flavor at home."....now, we at the coffee house, don't have special coffee makers or magical beans...the only thing we at the coffee house can guess is that the triple filtering of the water makes a difference.

so, why not have at least one water filtration system between you and your morning brew?

this sure is more cost affective than the triple filtration system that is used by the the big box coffee house.

Not the same ones that came with the coffee maker, but seem to fit in the cage, and work okay.

If you think your coffee isn't tasting as good as it should, buy some new filters - what a difference they make.
