Anyone have problems with it not filtering as fast as it used to compared to using it the first time?

When the filter gets old it will slow down, using a new filter will fix the problem.

yep, right after the first time filtering it seem's that it clog's up, and not just with 1 filter, with the replacement filter's also, sorry but a waste of money and time

The only time I had this problem is when I accidently used two filters instead of one, .. I never buy the name brands anymore.. seems the thinner the better as far as the paper is concerned. Hope this helps.. Deni

It is slower than other, plastic filters I've had. After a few uses is seems to hit a rate of filling up in an hour or two. But then after a few more months, it started slowing down significantly. I took out the filters and gently scrubbed them with a soft brush as per instructions, put them back in and now it is back to normal. The more filters you have, the faster it will go. Mine came with two but had the capacity for four so I ordered and added the extra two. I tend to fill mine up before going to bed at night. Works great!

Hello there, I haven't had any problem with it so I really don't know. Please consider that this model is an old model and very slow, I bought it 2 months ago and I will replace it because of this. Cheers!

I don't use mine very often, but I've used it a few times at least with no problems. But a couple days ago I used it and I think I've got the same problem you are describing. I could hear that it was not working right and I could see that water was not getting sucked up. I picked up and reseated the water tank assembly. Then it worked fine again. The problem is, I had to do this several times as I cleaned our small living room. I hope this is not going to be a continual problem because the machine is very new and has seen very little use.

It takes a while actually a lot to filter....first you need to let the water go through the filter for 30minutes Did you do that? Than you putvthe pieces together.....in the beginning its takes more time than regular i think

Interesting. My filter unscrews quite easily. Perhaps give it a better tug. Good luck.

In my opinion the filter does get dirty fairly quickly...I try to use a brush and get most of the stuff off of it myself rather than replacing every couple months.

My first question would be if you primed it according to the instructions that should have come with it (I think they're on the box)? If not, do so. If yes, something I've done to prolong the use of mine is to gently scrub the filters with a clean wet dish cloth. I'm assuming your filtering tap water, but if your filtering dirty water then flow can diminish quicker.

Had no problems with mine. You may not have twisted the filters back into their fully seated positions.

I have not had that problem, check that your hoses are in the correct position in and out, also make sure that the filter is filled with water.

I just bought one to replace my original permanent filter which was somewhat smaller. I've noticed that water flows through faster with the new filter, and the brewed coffee is weaker. Adding a paper filter has helped.

I just went through this issue as well, with the New and Improved filters...as Special Etc mentioned, it was because I hadn't pushed down on the filter enough to create a seal. I could actually see water leaking out the bottom, in addition to it pouring out the 4 holes. After pulling it out, re-inserting it and pushing it down hard, it sat much better and the filtering was back to normal again.

I have the same problem. They sent me new filters but that didn't help. So, probably not.

So far I haven't had that issue. I just clean off the filter - wipe off with paper towel or hand and replace it. I haven't had it longer than about one month.
