Is the filter glass?

No, it's plastic. If you buy this, always store the filter in the supplied cloth bag and place the plastic cover sheet on it as well. I have done this and the filter has been in good condition since purchase.

These are not fiberglass. They are duplicates of the original filters. These are pleated filters.

I received one a couple of days ago thinking it was a glass filter only to find out it is in fact acrylic. To make matters worst, it had a scratch and smudge that affected the all photos taken with my GP 3+. Waiting for a replacement. Extra care is needed when using any acrylic filter. Extreme care should be taken when cleaning.

filter frame is plastic w/ silicone seal around perimeter; sleeve through steel lid for bar to slide in is plastic and broke on mine in first year. Still works fine. Other than that it is very sturdy and makes great coffee.

Yes it is but I ended breaking the glass. It will cause a glare if your using night vision cameras.

Yes, KDF identifies a filtration media within the filter. You can look up KDF on the web for further information.

If u are asking if the filter itself has stryofoam...yes it does. The framework around the outside and the square grid you see on top and the bottom is styrofoam.

Yes, and I am very happy with it. Easy to clean and does not create the paper waist of a standard filter.

I recently purchased this machine and can tell you that the filter holder is a very sturdy clear plastic. Hope this helps !

It is. The filter slides out toward the right side of the unit, opposite of the controls. Hope this helps you out.

Wow ! You know Denise.....I never paid attention to the first filter I replaced being glass or plastic?!?! However, I think you are right. These I ordered are plastic and you cannot see through them like the glass ! Thank you for asking this question ! I won't order any more !!!! I am going to try and get my money back !

Yes, the 'plastic thing' is attached to the side of the filter which allows you to slide the filter into place inside the unit.

Yep it is. They were good quality too. I bought them some time back though 2 yrs ago. Mine were glass.I still have em and they work fine.

I'm not sure. There is a thin, dark sheet inside the filters--but I'm not sure what it is made of. Hope this helps. The interior sheet is about an inch smaller than the filter and appears to have a rough texture.
