Will the lid to the E-Z cup still close with the filter in place?

Yes,just push down on the lid.I've got some filters that have a little bit of a lip on it,I just bent it over the E-Z cup top before you put your coffee in.the lid will stay close.

Filters for the EZ Cup work, but I'm cheap so I just cut round filters the size of the bottom of the drawer out of a regular coffee filter using a cap from a vitamin bottle for a guide. A couple drops of water makes it stick to the bottom and then I add my ground coffee. Keeps the grounds out of the bottom screen.

No, you cannot close the hole that is on top of the cup top, but the straw itself does have a plastic cover on it.

I'd say no. With the bottom base removed, it is 8 inches (maybe a bit shy of 8 inches) from base to the bottom of the filter cup. It would be a very tight fit if you were able to get it under there.

No, the lid doesn't stay on. When tipping it past the midpoint, you have to hold the lid in place or the lid (and sometimes the filter insert as well) will come sliding away from the pitcher. Terrible design.

I have used an ekobrew (plastic) reusable filter with my KG5 since I purchased it 18 months ago with no problems. As stated in other comments, it only takes a little extra pressure to close the lid. I only use the ekobrew when making a 6 oz second cup and use disposable K-cups when making 10 oz cups. I am currently shopping for a new reusable K-cup filter since I accidentally threw mine away and was curious what others had experienced since ecobrew.com web site indicates not compatible with KG5 model.

dont try to pour all the water out or the inverted position will dislodge the filter and lid. when pushed firmly on, perpendicular pours work just fine without holding the lid. I refill often to keep enough water in to do this

Yes and no. Everything fits, but the lid does not close completely. The lid is 3/8ths of an inch above the "fully closed" position. That is fine for me, but might annoy others.

Hi, good question. I became curious myself. When you open the top the filter pops out easily. Everything screws back together nicely without it.

Yes. The lid has a hole which the straw fits in to and a spring-loaded flap which opens inward. The spring forces the flap closed and so it presses tightly against the straw when one is inserted preventing the flap from closing.

If you open the lid fully until you feel it click it will stay in that position. Kind of like how a car door has that open point where it won't swing shut.

If you put the gasket in the base of the lid and screw it on the glass it fits snuggly and prevents leaks.

Mine does not fit snug, but there is no gap. You won't get the proper temperature if it doesn't fit right. There should be a rubber gasket on the edge of the lid.

I'm Sorry I don't know. These filters fit in a specific EZ Cup. Look up EZ Cup and you will see it.

It doesn't fit tightly inside at all but has a hinge so it will not fall off. I would rather it did not have the hinge but instead fit tightly inside the lip, but haven't had any problem with boil overs

Yes, the lid is tight fitting. Everything stays in its place. It's a great organizer.

I believe what you are talking about are the alignment posts to keep the filter centered. The filter itself is too study to collapse.
