We opted for a Krups coffee machine in which an original filter cartridge belonged to the basic equipment. As the Machine drew attention to the first cartridge change, I first wanted to buy a no-name product due to the higher cost of the original. Eventually, though, various reviews I have kept from these non-originals. In retail, the Krups-filter cartridges are not much more expensive, but rarely available on site. In order to always have a small supply worthwhile for me to order through Amazon. From order to delivery everything was OK, and the packaging was sufficient and carefully. Are satisfied and do it again!
