It makes good coffee in my krups 12-cup coffee maker, and doesn't add any of the "off" flavors I sometimes notice with paper filters. I just rinse it off between uses, and pop it in the dishwasher once in a while. I love this reusable filter. It's easy to clean, too. And it's nice to know I'm not clogging up a landfill with hundreds of paper filters. I've had it for probably 7 or 8 years now, and I use it every day. I'm not sure how much it would cost to buy paper filters for that length of time, but I'm sure it's paid for itself many times over by now.
You only need to replace this filter once every three years or so. This is so much easier than paper filters - and much more eco-friendly.
I WAS NOT HAPPY. IN THE MEANTIME, MY HUSBAND FOUND ONE $8 CHEAPER AT WAL-MART (SAME FILTER). THIS WAS RECOMMENDED FOR PEOPLE WHO HAD RECENTLY PURCHASED THE COFFEE MAKER I WAS ORDERING. WHEN THE FILTER CAME IT DID NOT FIT THE BASKET AND I HAD TO RETURN IT AND PAY SHIPPING.
It fit poorly and when I started to brew a pot of coffee the filter door popped open and coffee and grounds went all over the place. It doesn't. I will now order another filter with the specific number to fit mine. I bought this filter since it is supposed to fit most Krups' drip coffee makers. My Krups model is a common, fairly new, model so I thought it should work.
I haven't had any problems with item. This is my second gold filter in twenty years.
