These are a wonderful invention, making a great coffee even better!
By T. Nichols, careful shopper on Reviewed in the United States on September 20, 2012
These things are fabulous! They work in a Keurig Coffeemaker (I have a Cuisinart that uses the Keuring brewing system). As you may know these coffee makers use coffee pods making fresh brewed coffee in less than a minute. But, the pre made pods are expensive, and even though there are now hundreds of brands and coffee types and flavors, I like to make my own. It is MUCH less expensive and MUCH better. I buy the fresh roasted coffee beans of my choice and grind my own in a Cuisinart Coffee Grinder, also ordered through Amazon. This makes the very best coffee, and you can select the exact bean and strength you prefer. The coffee maker comes with a Keurig 'MY K CUP' individual coffee making pod. But, you have to change the pod holder in the machine each time you use it, plus empty the wet grounds and wash the filter after each use. The EZ-Cup Pods are much easier, and a snap to empty the disposable filter and dispose of neatly. It is a good grade filter and you can use a finer grind coffee, producing a better flavor. I was given a starter set as a gift, and now ordering my filters from Amazon and at a less price than retail department stores. Plus no sales tax and shipping charges. (Note: You do have to first order the EZ-Pod cup to hold the filter). Then you just use these disposable filters as the pre made pods, not having to change the pod holder each time like you have to in the Keurig MY K CUP. And, the amazing thing is I ordered it with the free Super Saver Shipping and had it in my mail box in less than 24 hours after ordering online. I placed the order for the filters at 10 am on Wednesday, and had them in my mailbox by 9 am the next morning even though the estimated delivery was 5-8 days! That was .8 days delivery time. They were well packaged and shipped from seller. That's some very fast transmission and organization in processing an order! UPDATE: After having these for over a year now I am as happy with them as ever. I ordered 3 more and grind and make up my pods the night before, and place them in the K-Cup Pod rack like the expensive pre made ones. That way I'm not fumbling around in the morning grinding and filling the pods. Have them pre made to last all day! I tried the new ones that have permanent filters and use no disposable ones. Yes, this is a little cheaper and better on trash fills, but it just isn't as convenient to use nor make coffee that tastes as good as the E-Z Pods. The filter and E-Z Pod makes better, clearer coffee with no residue in left in the bottom of the cup as with the newer filterless ones. Also with the new ones, you have the same problem as with the one packaged with the coffee maker--you still have wet hot grounds to dispose of after each use. The E-Z pod you just hold over the trash can and the filter pops out and no mess whatsover! The filterless ones I keep only for 'backup' if I happen to run out of filters! They are still a HUGE improvement of the one provided with the coffee maker and have to remove the inner hopper each time, then have wet grounds to dispose of.

Is this a cruel joke or what!
By Nick Dees on Reviewed in the United States on April 14, 2012
I came upon the EZ-cup product while looking for a replacement mesh filter that came with my purchase of a Keurig machine a year-and-a-half ago. I brew 2 to 4 cups day and have never had a problem with the Keurig. I prefer coffee strong and black and devoid of grounds - and that is what I have consistently received using the Keurig brew-your-own adapter. As we speak, I am enjoying a perfectly brewed cup of Starbucks Vanilla roast. I cannot tell the difference between what I am drinking and what I have purchased from Starbucks or Barnes and Noble. Unfortunately, I saw a link to EZ-Cup and decided to read the reviews. Upon reading the reviews, there appear to be two camps: those who love the product and find it superior to the original Keruig adapter and those who find it an abomination. I am definitely in the latter group. Even many of those who liked EZ-cup discussed the machinations they had to go through to make it work "properly." I said to myself that it can't be this difficult. I decided to order the EZ-cup after several reviewers claimed that the resulting brew was much stronger than the Keurig, even though I estimated that using EZ-cup would add perhaps 15 cents to the cost of each cup. I received the cups and holder a couple of days ago, read the minimalist instuctions on the box, and had at it. The first attempt resulted in what can only be described as slightly colored, tasteless water. Ditto on the second attempt. I remember reading in the reviews about the placement of the spring, the best grind to use, the proper way to seal the lid and placement of the paper filter, and how high to fill the EZ-cup with coffee for optimal performance. My conclusion: since I followed all the instructions on the box to the letter, there is no way I'm going to contact the vendor like so many others had to, to make this product "work." I did not go to their website - I sure hope there is a video demonstration there on how to do what should exceedingly simple.
