Product Description
Cafe creme with your own trusted coffee. The Melitta Padfilter gives you the freedom to use your original Senseo & Senseo Deluxe (or Senseo pod sized creme machine, not the new Senseo Supreme machine) with all types of ground coffee in your machine. Simply fill the Melitta Padfilter, place it in the 2 pod holder of the cafe creme machine and hit the coffee button! The Melitta Padfilters are durable, easily in use and dishwasher safe. Best of all it is made by a coffee company you know and trust, Melitta! The Melitta Padfilter is made better and stronger than the Ecopad or Quickcup. It also uses a patented hinged top that is easy to open, quick to close and you won't lose your pod top like you can with the Ecopad and Quickcup. Hey, it is made by Melitta! The Melitta Padfilter cannot be returned, so make sure you understand what you are buying. It is made to fit the Senseo Coffee machine and may not fit other brands.

5 out of 5 stars I don't understand the bad reviews....   March 20, 2008

Because these filters have been the best thing I have bought since getting the Senseo machine. Now I am not a terribly "green", crunchy sort of person but I did find the waste involved with the paper used for the individual use pods kind of disconcerting. Not only was there the waste of throwing away the pod after 1 use, there was the packaging for the pods themselves. And consider if you drank just one cup a day just what sort of waste that is producing. And the pods were not recyclable due to the coffee grounds, because even in my liberal, tree-hugging neck of the woods, food scrap recycling plans are still not very wide spread. And of course there is the money issue too. These filters have already paid for themselves, considering how many times I have used them vs. what it would have cost to buy as many coffee pods. I can buy a half a pound of ground coffee (even with the coffee costing more than 8 dollars a pound) and get more than a *month's* worth of cups of coffee vs. spending just as much on a bag of 16 pods that will only last me 2 weeks.

The issues mentioned with the pods can be solved by two simple steps that a lot of people fail to do---read and then actually follow the directions. Make sure the pods are snapped firmly shut, clean off any loose coffee grounds, and do not pack the coffee down, and these filters will work wonderfully in your Senseo machine. I have not experienced leaks, weak or bad coffee, or any of the bad experiences others have mentioned.



1 out of 5 stars Not worth it ...   December 17, 2007

I tried this product, I like the concept, but it's a waste of your money. Making coffee this way is just a big hassle and it doesn't even come close what the pods offer. It's a messy process, and you need to really pack it down to get any halfway decent result.

From a reputable brand like Melitta, I found this very disappointing.

Note on the pods;
I actually have my coffee pods shipped over from the Netherlands (Douwe Egberts) - the pods there are cheaper (even after shipping it to the US!), and they offer pods that have a much richer coffee taste.
A good backup for these are (believe it or not) the "Columbian" pods from Folgers.

I feel that I have really given this product a fair chance but I can't get it to work for me. I have tried many different amounts of coffee and even running the Senseo with the filter completely empty and I still get leaking water all over the place. I've seen several reviews with very satisfied users...what is the secret?

Can't beat the speed of a quick brew of my own blend. Although a little pricey, I expect the cost to be worthwhile. I've used Fine Ground coffee and have used a grinder for my own coffee beans --- excellent results. Clean up is a quick rinse, and prep work takes a little time and patience. I plan on buying more, and I'll be set for the rest of the week!

These pods are great! Don't allow the $20 price for these to sway you not to purchase them. You will not only save fortune at the end of year but will actually have a superior cup of coffee. These will allow you to purchase the coffee/tea of your choice and adjust the strength to suit you. They fit perfectly in the new Senseo Supreme machine and are a snap to clean up. For home use of pod coffee makers, these are the best way to get the most from your pod machine.
