Will this fit a 3 cup chemex?

Sadly it will not fit the 3 cup. I purchased it and a 3 cup chemex it didn't fit. Guess I need a bigger chemex ;)

Is this really $60? Amazon sellers play such tricks these days.

I wouldn't make a blanket statement about ALL Amazon sellers, but Able's prices are a bit unreasonable. There are other filters for <30USD that not only have the laser cut mesh like the Kone, but an additional ultra-fine wire mesh that gets you pretty close to a paper filter experience, but with a bit more oil/body. Maybe the price is reflected in the fact that Kone is made in the USA? Either way, you have options.

Does this fit the Hario V60 01?

Yes, it sits up a bit, but I use it every day!

Is there sediment? I've used metal filters before and struggled. Cheaper options complain of this and I wonder if it's the reusable factor or quality.

Yes, there is sediment. It isn't a deterrent for me. I simply make a little bit more coffee than I would otherwise--like half an inch more--and then I don't have to worry about dregs. I don't know exactly why this works, but other people commented that if you grind the coffee quite a bit finer than you would otherwise, there is less of a sediment problem, and I have found that to be true as well. It seems counterintuitive. Anyway, it really is not an issue for me. As long as you make that extra half inch of coffee, you have plenty left to remain in the bottom of the pot, and it doesn't land in your cup!
