Reusable Filter Set by Slimm Filter - 3 Piece, Stainless Steel Metal - Mesh, Fine, Ultra-Fine Metal Filter For AeroPress Coffee and Espresso Maker - Brew Barista-Grade Coffee At Home

Pretty good filter, works best with inverted method and saves paper and money. No grinds in coffee and doesnt effect the taste.

Very pleased. I can't speak for making coffee the "regular" way; I've always made my Aeropress coffee using the inverted method (the regular way is too weak for my taste). This is a perfect replacement for paper filters. It's also a bargain price compared to the name-brand ones. The coffee is delicious, and no grounds get through.The only issue is that my husband still prefers the paper filters, and he's been known to pop my metal filter right into the compost when cleaning the tube. Keep an eye on your spouse and you should be fine :)

It’s so good

The media could not be loaded. I can’t speak on the longevity of this product since I just used it for the first time, but it works great, the coffee tastes good, and there were no coffee sediments that passed through. Once you understand how to use it, it is easy.Another update: I’m disappointed at how quickly the coffee starts dripping downwards before you get to plunge it - which makes for a weaker cup of coffee. With the paper filters, none of the coffee escapes and you plunge all of the coffee/water to help the water absorb the coffee better. I’m going to see if the “ultra fine” filter is better at keeping the liquid contained as I’ve been using the mesh one. Again, if there were instructions, I would have realized this before having to go back on Amazon and figure this out reading the reviews. Having 3 filters that don’t work as great kind of defeats the purpose of having 3. I like the idea of having >1 but would prefer just one that’s actually good quality.My only critique is that mine did not come with instructions. I figured it out by going on YouTube, but I don’t think I should have to do that, and not everyone is going to. This product would probably get more positive reviews if people were guided properly on how to use it.Perhaps someone has a better way of using this, but I’m just sharing a video to show what worked for me.UPDATE: I was on auto pilot and started using the same inverted method that works only with the paper filters. The first time I made this mistake I was able to poor the not-yet filtered coffee and water into a mug and start the process all over. Well, this morning (I was not fully awake - hadn’t had my coffee yet!) and made the same mistake so to start all over I started plunging the coffee - pushing down on the filter side of the brewer with the plunger underneath - well I didn’t think about how this would cause all the coffee to come out and it exploded and got all over the kitchen, my clothes, and my hand is burned from hot coffee spilling on it. Clearly this was my mistake, but I’m still really disappointed that there are no instructions on what to do and not to do, and warning signs. This is a huge liability for the product that made it. Again, customers need guidance, especially when using something involving hot water.

Works well and well made. It may be a while before I have to use the second one.

Muy bueno, recomendable

Works as intended. No issues yet.

Second update:Some time after posting an update to my original review, Amazon sent me a full refund for my purchase. A day later I found an email in my inbox from the company that makes the filter. In it the representative explained that my email, in which I had replied with a shipping address for a replacement, had gone to the spam inbox and was recently discovered. Although the original intent was to send me a replacement for one of the two filters I had purchased (equaling a 50% refund in value) due to the long delay in responding the company was issuing me a full refund. Well done.Update:After using this product off and on for a few weeks, the metal frame that surrounds the filter screen began to separate. I contacted the maker to let them know so that they could make design changes if it was becoming a common problem rather than a one off flaw. The man who answered my email asked for my address so that he could send me a replacement. A replacement never arrived so after a reasonable time I sent a follow up email in case my first response had gotten lost or forgotten. I never received a reply or a replacement. I won't bother to pursue this further because I have no expectation at this point of receiving a reply or replacement but I decided to amend my review to reflect my experience.There was no animosity from my end in our communications and the original reply I received was also cordial. It's just that the representative never followed through. I'm not going to purchase this item again so I can't say if my experience was a unique one as far as the separation of the frame on the filter. But if other people give similar reviews there will be good reason to go back to the drawing board as far as the design.FYI, this item was carefully used, hand-washed and set on a towel on the counter to dry after use. So it was not subject to rough handling or high water temperatures other than brewing coffee. I also used the upside-down brewing technique so the hot water from brewing did not sit on the filter for longer than the time it takes to press the coffee through through the Aeropress. I suspect that the spot welds are not strong enough.My Original Review:When I purchased my S-filters I was only looking for a way to avoid having to refill paper filters for the Aeropress I had just ordered. While waiting for both my Aeropress and my S-filters to arrive I did some online research and learned that the S-filter had undergone some changes that made the filter even better than prior version and that the S-filter was preferred by many people for several reasons including what some seemed to think was a better brew. So, lucky me. Without even realizing it, I had potentially upgraded my Aeropress with this order.The filter lives up to the good reviews. It is thin enough to fit easily in the Aeropress. It should be the only filter I'll ever need and it does a wonderful job of filtering my coffee. I can't compare it to other metal filters but I can promise that it is a very fine filter. Even with a finer grind the grounds do not get stuck in the mesh, they up just rinse right off, so cleaning up is a snap. The coffee tastes great. What more is there to say?After making a few cups I do prefer the inverted method of brewing to keep all the water inside until I'm ready to press but it's not a difficult method by any means.
