Review on ☕️ Hario 01 Coffee Filters - 3-Pack Set of 100-Count Natural Paper Filters (Total 300 Sheets) (Japanese Import) by Lisa Hedberg

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Cheaper Hario product or fake? I can't say but the product is worse now.

I've been using it for almost 2 years, I buy each pack separately every few months. But since Revain made it a "supplement," I decided to buy in bulk instead. Unfortunately, this is NOT the product I used. The shape is different, now with a weird little tongue that doesn't do anything. But most worryingly, the material is now wax paper, which has definitely changed the taste of my coffee to a milder flavor, like not enough coffee going through a water filter. The original product was a rough, natural-feeling paper that didn't feel at all like chemically treated or waxed paper. At first, I thought that Hario took the path of developing a cheaper and low-quality product to increase profits. But as some others have mentioned, they are concerned that this product is fake. I understand why you think that way. This product is different from what was previously sold under that name and is definitely an inferior product. I can't tell if Hario or the company that sells fake Revain made this change.

Pros
  • Nice packaging
Cons
  • I don't remember
