5.0 out of 5 stars "Raising The Bar", September 28, 2005

By	Matthew M. Bennett "Jesus' book warm" (Middleburg, FL United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I thought I would raise the average rating on this product: I use it for my cappresso coffee maker & grinder and works very well. As far as not working on other coffee makers it doesn't take a genius to read a manual or even to look at the damn things. Sorry to offend anyone mistakes happen or even ignorance but rating it a zero because YOU baught the wrong product is stupidity. Thanks and enjoy the clean water = good tasting coffee!

3.0 out of 5 stars Capresso water filter - not really necessary, July 5, 2008

By	Kristi Robinson "Picasso" (Colombia - S.A.) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

As much as I love Capresso products - this one is questionable.

You might wonder what I mean by this - well, first of all look at the costs for just three filters. Second: If you use these filters as recommended on the package (60 uses or 6 weeks) then just do the math.

Yes, you will pay in one year more than the cost of your coffee maker. I have a Capresso coffee maker that cost over $200 and I love it but cannot afford these filters.

To beat this unnecessary filter and its expense, this is what you do. Simply use filtered water. Quality filtered water will be without all the particles and contaminants that will hurt your coffee maker. Then, follow the coffee maker's instructions regarding its cleaning - like using white vinegar to keep the system free of harmful calcification.

Manufacturers are in business to make money and they will sell you whatever you believe you must buy - these filters are not necessary!

4.0 out of 5 stars they work fine as long as you prep them properly, March 13, 2006

By	M. J. Elliott "mjeintx" (Weatherford TX) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I have always used the water filters and had no complaints. Just make sure you soak them for a few minutes and run a few cups of water (no coffee) through your coffee maker when you put a new one in. This will eliminate any stray charcoal in the first pot of coffee you brew with a new filter.
