Review on ☕️ VIVI SKY 600 Unbleached Coffee Paper Filters – Compatible with K Cups for Keurig Single Serve 1.0 & 2.0 Makers (600 count) by Rodney Sample

Good idea, needs serious work

When I received my Keurig in late 2012 I thought it was the BEST coffee maker I have ever bought. But not only are those K-Cups getting expensive, they're not good for the environment either. Don't get me wrong, I'm not the type to NEVER make PLASTIC. I'm not a tree lover. I'm not a "hey, let's make a garbage heap" fanatic either. I do what I can, where and when I can to reduce my footprint. So I bought a reusable cup with my Keurig. It was "PERFECT POD" back then and I got their filters too. And they were pretty affordable. Sometimes hard to find. I'm always looking for a GREAT bargain. When I saw them I thought I'd try them. One thing I should have noticed and didn't, and it's 100% my fault, they don't have a 'lid'. If you want to know what I mean, look at my photos. White filters are PERFECT POD, unbleached ones are the product. Note the white filter as "cap". This is very useful when filling in the soil. Without a lid to cover them, they tend to fall out of the refillable cup whether the filter is FULL or not. This can result in dirt getting into the coffee maker and your cup, making it harder to clean the top of the filter. The capped white filter completely prevents this. They are not easy to store or take out of the packaging. ALL 600 FILTERS in ONE package. There are NO separate pockets to take out and store the rest until needed. You must open the ENTIRE BOX and ENTIRE BAG to obtain one (1) filter. I decided to take a "group" of filters and keep them in another bag. They work? Apart from these problems, yes. When it comes to coffee, there is no difference. Again, I usually chill it and then mix it with chocolate milk for a mocha. Willingness to buy depends on whether they want to clean the K-Cup EVERY SINGLE CUP (fortunately I have two reusable cups) and whether they want to. open box and pouch for one (1) filter. Given the design of the filter - 1 star; Packaging - 1 star. While still expensive, my next set will be either my old brand or a cheaper brand with a lid. To be honest, I wouldn't take them again and I can't recommend them either.
