Review on ☕ Fette Filter Saeco Intenza+ Coffee Filters - Pack of 4 by Brian Zhao

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Collect coffee filters and save

An almost perfect alternative! My Gaggia needs an Intenza+ filter and this Mavea alternative seems to be in the ballpark. Visible differences are minor: 1- there is no cute sticker reminding when to change the filter (but my Gaggia already does); 2-no multilingual user manual (well, how difficult is the filter change?!); 3- no soft/hard ABC adjustment knob (making installation easier). I have no idea about the technical differences - mavea's instructions say their filter is silver coated (as if that's a good thing). All I know is that it fits perfectly, appears to be identical in form and function, and the price is reduced. Those four will last me until next year when I come back for more. Note: The Saeco Intenza is on the right in the photo, in front of the four-pack. On the left is the Mavea Intenza filter. Marking with/without ABC ring (for soft/normal/hard water) has to be looked at carefully below.

Pros
  • Contains 4 water filters for Saeco Intenza coffee machines
Cons
  • Crumpled
