Series filter - as always above

As always above. The best price I can find for these filters. My favorite Krups coffee machine will only have original filters in it. I will continue to buy these until I upgrade from the EA82 to the nicer Krups series.

Pros
  • Brings joy
Cons
  • Everything is fine

Pure water makes coffee better.

While pouring filtered water into my KRUPS, a second pass through a regularly changed filter really makes a difference. Double filtration makes sense when you're getting a quality, brewed coffee.

Pros
  • Free for educational purposes
Cons
  • Volume

Luckily super glue and pliers put it together

When I screwed it in slightly with my finger it broke the base and the water level switch in the tank. Luckily superglue and pliers got this together, but I would never put a filter in that thing again.

Pros
  • This is amazing
Cons
  • Negative impression

Not as advertised

Info card says enough for 1200 coffees before needing replacement but warning comes after 2 months and could be 300 shots. I also use the Berkley filtration system which cleans tap water. So not very happy with the lifespan.

Pros
  • Good product for the price
Cons
  • Renewable

Review of Krups XP5240

Sold as an accessory for Krups XP5240. I bought this to see if it would improve the quality of the coffee and filter the water better, but it has the disadvantage of having to constantly put the machine in steam/stop mode (see the XP5240 manual) in order to to help pump water through the filter. I have to do this EVERY TIME I make coffee, otherwise the water slowly leaks out and the result is "burnt" coffee (due to overheating the water). Installation is easy, just screw the filter onto the…

Pros
  • Worth the money
Cons
  • sad packaging

Great filter and same manufacturer as advertised with fast shipping

works exactly as advertised and is designed for Krups premium espresso and coffee makers. The fit is perfect and hygienically packaged. The price is in line with the manufacturer, maybe even cheaper, and you get very fast shipping from Prime.

Pros
  • Absolutely amazing!
Cons
  • Not bad but...
