Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Cuisinart GTF Gold Tone Filter
Customer Review: Who would have thought?
Summary: 2 Stars
I ordered a 4 cup Cusinart coffee maker. On the order page, there were additional items listed with an indication that these items were accessories to the coffee maker above them. I bought a gold filter. As it turned out, that gold filter was not the model for the coffee maker on that screen, but for another size maker. I guess I was to blame for not researching the description, but I relied on Amazon. Won't do that again!Customer Review: Gold Tone Filter - Used for 2 Weeks
Summary: 3 Stars
Good design. Cleaning: Time consuming and I use a lot of warm to hot water. Does not filter as well as the paper cones. Leaves a lot of dark heavey coffee in the bottom of the pot and in your cup if you mix it up. Coffee tastes ok. If you really want to use this, buy two or three. That way you can rinse it out and put in dishwaher instead of cleaning it so much. We went back to the paper ones. Wanna buy mine!Customer Review: Not good for finer grind coffee.
Summary: 3 Stars
If you like finer grind or dark coffee, then this is NOT the filter for you. The filter leaves a noticable amount of coffee grounds on every pot. After a weeks of use, I finally switch back to good old paper filters. I haven't try the filter on regular grind coffee and I'm sure it works well. But if you drink mainly finer grind coffee, then I would not buy this, unless you enjoy coffee grounds in your coffeeCustomer Review: Better than paper
Summary: 5 Stars
I've had the same filter for at least 15 years--it's outlasted I don't know how many coffee makers and carafes. The secret is never to put it in the dishwasher, and use dish soap on it as seldom as possible. Clean daily (gently) with hot water and a cloth, and hand-wash with dish soap every couple of weeks.
I wouldn't go back to paper filters. This makes much less mess and saves trees.
Customer Review: Great adjunct to Cuisinart coffeemaker.
Summary: 5 Stars
This coffee filter works great. It does add an extra step to the cleanup process compared with the paper filter, but is worth it. It reduced the number of times that one gets a "plugged" basket and a "boil over" Coffee tastes great. You are more likely to have fine grinds at the bottom of the cup however especially if you use a fine grind of coffee. Definitely prefer it over the paper filters!
