Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Keurig My K-Cup Reusable Coffee Filter
Customer Review: After the quick fix with water issue.....your good to go!!!!
Summary: 4 Stars
I was so sad the first time I used this...water sprayed everywhere and cup of coffee sucked...BUT I read a previous reviewer telling you how to fix the problem and it worked!!!! No mess and no coffee grounds in my coffee. The fix is so simple. Yes....you probably shouldn't have to adjust anything for this to perform properly (which is why I give it 4 stars) but really it's not that difficult. Just open the top where you would place the k-cup and if you look up under the lid where the needle is (be very careful)...there is a rubber washer. Pull the washer down just a bit and there ya go..water problem solved. It seems that the rubber washer need to seal properly against the top part of the plastic lid when in the closed position.
Hope this works for you too!! Now I don't regret getting this item!! woohoo!!!
Customer Review: After tweaking, works fine.
Summary: 4 Stars
This is a must product for anyone who has a Keurig coffee maker. The K Cups are pretty expensive and for someone like me who drinks 3 or 4 cups a day that can be kind of expensive.
The my K-cup allows you to use your own coffee in our Keurig. It is easy to use and you can easily switch between the My K-Cup and regular K-Cups.
The instructions are easy to understand. You'll be using your own coffee minutes after taking this out of the box.
The downsize is that this is a tad messy. After making a cup of coffee you will want to clean it, and loading 2 tablespoons of coffee at a time can be tedious at times.
Also the instructions suggest using coarser ground coffee. I used finer ground coffee and found the results were more suited to my taste. So I would definitely suggest this more for someone who has control over how finely their coffee is ground.
Customer Review: Allows for some flexibility
Summary: 3 Stars
Not sure the item is really necessary... it does allow you to use coffee not provided in a K-Cup (but I stopped counting after about 100 available varieties of K-Cups).Customer Review: Almost Perfect Design - Why the naysayers?
Summary: 5 Stars
First, I gave this a 5-star rating (I would probably have given it 4 stars) to offset some of the unfair criticism. Yes, you have to pop out a plastic part- Yes, I wish you didn't have to BUT it takes maybe 2-3 seconds. As far as clean-up goes, it's a SNAP! You simply rinse out the lid and filter. Not difficult unless you are sink-challenged. I alternate using this filter and my K-cups. My favorite morning brew is Starbucks breakfast blend which is not yet available in a K-cup! I do wish that you didn't have to pop the plastic piece back in and out everything you were switching filters as it can be very messy if you use a K-cup without that plastic cup piece. Trust me, I know from experience. But that only happened to me ONE TIME. Then, I learned to simply double-check. You also have to make sure to align the tabs correctly but really, that's my only criticism of it. Otherwise, I think it's downright INGENIOUS ! As for the reviewer who states that this "defeats the purpose of a Keurig coffee maker", I say "Grow Up!". It's OKAY to want to be environmentally friendly once in awhile. I would definitely recommend you own this if you own a Keurig coffee maker.Customer Review: Also Works With Keurig B-70 System
Summary: 5 Stars
The reusable K-Cup filter assembly allows you to use your own gourmet ground coffee in your Keurig brewer. Simple to use and clean, highly recommended. Also works with the new Keurig B-70 Gourmet Single Cup Home Brewing System that was released October 1, 2006.
