Customer Review

I have both in the office and at home a fully automatic machine from Krups in use, the eating these things in the truest sense of the word. At about 15 covers a day per machine is to come together and have what the filter must often be replaced after six months due to the flow rate. Krups itself specifies a maximum of two months service life for the filters when the flow rate of 50 liters should not be achieved. Therefore, I have now tried several alternatives to reduce the consequential costs a little.

Compared with the low-cost alternatives to the original filter Krups make a quality impression, what you would expect for more than twice the price also. The exchange is very easy using the equipment supplied keys, but to accomplish even by hand, if the key is not even within reach, but this is mostly in the low-cost replacement cartridges also the case.

The Krups filters have a hub at the top, which is set to the month of onset and displayed by window the life of the filter, this feature is missing in most favorable replacement. What is also at the low-priced models often reads is that the filter beads leak from the cartridges and destroy the machine. I had indeed never, but that's the reason why I still sit at my expensive machine to the original filter, they simply make the total wertigeren and reliable impression that cheap cartridge would look rather cheap.

Taste I have incidentally can not make a difference to unfiltered water, so for me the protection of expensive equipment is primarily decisive for the use of filters.

Although the favorable replacement cartridges are good too, but the uneasy feeling of a defect swings stop but when used with. In the original filter you have at least the certainty that they can turn to in case of errors Krups. However, the price of it could be slightly lower, because the follow-up costs are not negligible and the profit margin would certainly not low precipitation, but there's also a deduction.
However, I must say that I've had good experiences with alternative cartridges (cost less than half) if only not afraid of failures would resonate with those ....
