Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Capresso 4440.90 3-pack Charcoal Water Filters
Customer Review: Filter McNuggets
Summary: 4 Stars
These are very simple. They are activated charcoal inside a filter shaped like a little plug. Water has to travel through it before it is heated and showered over the coffee grounds. The activated charcoal reduces the chlorine taste of the water, which can give coffee an off taste, depending on how strong it is. The filter keeps the charcoal contained, but also keeps any stray coffee grounds that may have made it into the water chamber from landing on the heating element.
Activated charcoal does have a shelf life, and will absorb odors from the air if you don't keep it tightly wrapped, so don't buy too many of these in advance or they won't stay fresh.
Customer Review: Good Product
Summary: 4 Stars
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.Customer Review: Water filters work
Summary: 4 Stars
I use a Capresso 440 (10-cup) coffee maker, we have been using it for about 2-3 years. The Caresso 4440.90 filters are the replacement filters for filtering the water to be used in making the coffee. I buy them through Amazon because they are cheap and the delivery costs are low. The filters work just fine, no problems. The Capresso 440 counts the number of batches of coffee, and the calendar time, and alerts the user when it is time to replace the filter. It seems to be about every 3-4 months.Customer Review: "Raising The Bar"
Summary: 5 Stars
I thought I would raise the average rating on this product: I use it for my cappresso coffee maker & grinder and works very well. As far as not working on other coffee makers it doesn't take a genius to read a manual or even to look at the damn things. Sorry to offend anyone mistakes happen or even ignorance but rating it a zero because YOU baught the wrong product is stupidity. Thanks and enjoy the clean water = good tasting coffee!Customer Review: This product doesn't fit in my EAR!!
Summary: 5 Stars
I tried using these filters as ear plugs, but they don't fit in my ears. I'm very disappointed and almost gave it only one star.
As an afterthought, I tried using them in my Capresso coffemaker, and surprisingly enough, they work!! They really should be more explicit on the packaging and state that it only works in Capresso coffee makers. Oh, wait, they already do...
