5 Stars Capresso Water Filters
We’ve used the Capresso Coffee Maker for the last twelve or so years and the charcoal water filters do exactly what you’d like them to do: filter the water before making the coffee. We change them on the first of each month and believe that they make a big difference in the taste of our coffee.

4 Stars Good Product
I normally purchase these filters from one of a local kitchen or appliance store; however, they were all out and the stores could not give me an ETA. Therefore, I purchased them on Amazon because I needed them. The price wasn’t any bargain compared to store bought but with Amazon’s free shipping; it did save me some gas money. As for the product itself I have been using it for years and it is made for my coffee maker and I have no complaints. I mean there isn’t a whole lot you can say about these filters unless you notice that they don’t work.

3 Stars Carbon Shortage?
Maybe the global warming folks have it wrong, maybe there isn’t a carbon shortage? Why else would these filters go up $6 in less than 3 years? Just a theory.

5 Stars The right choice
It’s the right choice for your Capresso coffee-maker. Ours is not an espresso machine. This is the right fit and it was so easy to find on Amazon.com!

3 Stars To Filter or not to Filter; that is the question!
This is my 3rd Capresso 454 Coffee maker. I love them! Great coffee, all the time.

The filters that are used (1 comes with it) are about $5 each…3 for $15. What a giant ripoff!!

First, I think charcoal filters are a good idea….but Jeez, $5 per filter?!! These things should sell for $.50 each! A total ripoff!

My suggestion (after buying a 3 pack) is to use filtered water…or tap water. I don’t think you will see a difference.

This filter is specially shaped to go into the little basket, so other filters won’t work. What a great idea…One could spend a fortune on filters alone!

Use plain cold water….tastes the same!

3 Stars Seems to leak after short use
I installed a sediment prefilter and then this type to clean up the taste and smell of the water.

I bought two of this carbon filter model in addition to a bunch of the sediment filters.

The first carbon filter I installed did an awesome job. The water came out crystal clear with no odor. I stopped using the Brita for drinking water even.

That lasted about 3 weeks and the smell returned and the water got rusty again over a period of a couple days.

So I replaced the prefilter and the carbon filter with new ones. And the water was again clear and odorless. But this time it only lasted about 3 days until the odor returned.

I checked the filter and it doesn’t look dirty. The flow is still strong with no noticeable pressure loss. I keep the pressure at 40 PSI.

If they were to continue working like the first one did, I would be happy to pay for these relatively expensive filters. But I think they must be developing channels in the filter and becoming ineffective. There is no other explanation for how the filter can look clean, have no pressure drop, and lose it’s filtration properties so quickly.

I’m going to have to try other brands.

5 Stars Good filter, decent price
We got this to replace the filter in our Watts reverse osmosis (RO) unit. Watts generally seems to provide a good product. We did have a problem with the faucet handle of the RO unit, but they replaced it quickly and all is good. A good company that stands by its products.

2 Stars Works, more so than the customer service does.
I bought this filter as I section hike the Appalachian trail and had been borrowing a MSR filter from a friend. I bought this filter 2 and 1/2 weeks before my most recent trip and when the filter came in I noticed the prefilter was missing. I contacted the customer service and informed them of this and within 1 hour I had received a response saying they would send it out as soon as possible. Well a few days before the trip I send another message since I hadnt received the piece and they said they sent it already. A week AFTER my trip was over the piece finally came in and based on the post mark it was sent 3 days before it came in. I wouldnt be so mad if it wasnt for the fact that they lied to me about the situation.

At home the filter does work just like any other but given the choice I would have opted for the MSR filter that I know is reliable and as far as I know already comes with all the pieces you need. This is what I get for trying to save a few bucks.

3 Stars Fast but somewhat complicated
This filter works very fast, filling a 1L bottle in about a minute. However, getting to that point can be a chore. There are a lot of small parts and hoses and input versus output and caps and attachments…etc… I’ll give Katadyn credit, they certainly give you a lot of parts, various attachemnts for bottles and water bags, even extra parts if you want to cut your water bag hose and add in the easy fill attachment. That’s nice. But this means a lot of small, extra parts that serve to confuse, espcially if you are using it for the first few times. However, once you get it all figured out, it pumps just fine, and fills bags and bottles fast. It takes longer to set up the pump than it does to fill your bottles, but it gives a nice clean taste.

Overall I’d recommend it, but learn how to set it up before you go into the wilderness. Also, take just the pieces you need, because keeping all the extra parts with the unit will either lead to confusion, or lost parts!

5 Stars Never leave home without it
I received this last March as A birthday present and just used it for the first time, it works great. I first tried it out on some accumulated rain water in our camp tarp; the water was not quite clear, but tasted fine. I drank the filtered water all weekend with no ill effects, so it must work. I would recommend this product to any one who hikes, bikes or any other outdoor activities. It ways almost nothing and is very simple to use. I love it!

5 Stars Buy it.
I purchased this to replace my Sweetwater filter that failed at the furthest point out on a recent trip. Fortunately, another hiking group had this unit and was willing to fill our water containers. It worked flawlessly and did it in a surprisingly short time. Katadyn has always been a very reputable company, and I am sorry that I did not purchase one of it’s products the first time.

2 Stars Broke Easily
Used this twice for on backpacking trips on the AT…one week trip and a weekend. Worked very well. Took it on a long day hike and couldn’t get it to work…found out that the intake stem was broken. Never put the filter under too much stress for it to break in such a way. My advice…pay more for a better qaulity pump.

5 Stars Great value!!!
I have been using these filters for a long time and found this to be the best deal yet.

5 Stars Great price & quick shipping
Looked at all the stores in town and these filters were very pricey. Checked here and found them for half the price.

5 Stars Very Nice!
The water filters work great! I love having the filter attached directly to my kitchen facet because I never run out of water and now that I have a 6 pac of filters I can drink as much delicious water as I desire.

5 Stars Affordable replacement water filters
I give this product the higest satisfaction rating. The performance is the same as those purchased at local retail stores but,”here is the good news” the cost is 40% to 60% less on Amazon.com. I can say the filters appear identical to the ones at local retailers so I assume the only difference is the PRICE. Finally i’ve found an affordable alternative for cleen water.

4 Stars Filter Fine
What is there to say about Pur filters? I feel they are great for the amount they filter and the price. Alas, like many other people I too suffer from water filter casing leakage. The last case I had prior to this one leaked also. I called Pur and they said that there was nothing they could do for me as I had discarded the original packing box and there are numbers on it that they needed. When I bought it’s replacement I kept the box and it was a good thing as the casing that holds the filter began leaking also. This time armed with the original box I phoned Pur and the person I spoke to was unaware of any problems with leakage. I mentioned the numerous people who had taken the time to write reviews and their problems all were about the housing leaking. The person I was speaking with took the numbers from the box and said a new filter housing would be on it’s way. My advise is to keep the whole box that the filter and housing comes in and if you have trouble with leaking call Pur and if they say it’s an unheard problem mention the reviews on various Internet sites written by people with the same problem, leakage. As to if they will follow up with the product? Well its only been a couple of days now and I was told it will take 2 – 3 weeks to arrive. At no point was the Pur representative nasty nor was I, just matter of fact and mentioning the Internet and the immediate “we’ll replace the unit” tells me that Pur IS aware of this problem and in using honey rather than vinegar to attract bees is a good way to approach this issue, at least for me it was.
