Hi. Do yo need to use the K-cup size white filter with this product, or is not needed? Thank you.

No need for a filter. Just put in the coffee, close the lid, and pop it into the brewer.

You do not need an additional filter for this product. You spoon the coffee directly into the K-cup (I use 2 Tbsp) and brew.

The white filters are not necessarily needed. My wife likes to grind the coffee fine to try and get the strongest coffee. The fine grounds, some get thru the mesh, not the white filter and then clean up is much easier also. If you don't grind fine, it is only the clean up issue.

No, you don't NEED IT but you get a little fine grounds without it. Can't see wasting the money of filters....

Yes you do. It is a removable basket that "holds" your filter. Without a filter you would have a very messy and chunky pot of coffee. I use the "Pure Brew" brand for a 4-cup coffee maker. They are very inexpensive at Walmart and work great!

It has a filter basket so it doesn't need a filter.... the filter basket is small and dome shaped so a 'pod' filter (the kind with coffee already in it) might fit, but not a 'traditional' filter.. even a smaller size.

Melissa, you do not have to put the coffee in a paper filter, although I suspect that may make cleanup somewhat easier. I would think the purpose of buying this item would be to avoid the high cost of the K-Cups. Adding a paper filter will probably increase the cost of each brew by 10 cents. Some people may feel the cost is worth it, but the filter is definitely not necessary. Enjoy!

You just put the coffee in this mesh basket, no filter needed. But you do need the the rest of the Kureg assembly this is just a replacement filter and will not work alone.

Only if you prefer not to use the coffee pods (k-cups). WITH THE FILTER CUPS, YOU USE BULK OR LOOSE COFFEE AND FILL THE CUP YOUR SELF, CHEAPER THAN BUYING THE K-CUPS.

I generally use any white round filter for coffee--haven't noticed any significant difference in brand so take what is best value or on sale. Many times I make tea instead of coffee so I just throw in 3 - 4 tea bags and the tea bag itself is the filter.

You really don't need a certain size filter. I use regular size filters by folding them to fit. Works for me!

The white part is the most important filter (not just a cover); the foam part is also a secondary filter, but you can wash the foam part and not have to replace it as often as the top (white) filter. But yes, you do need both parts.

Steven, I'm not certain what your problem is in using this filter. Does the bottom of your filter have a tiny hole in it? Without this hole the filter will not properly seat and the top of the Keurig will not open so water can be added. I used an ice pick to make a hole in mine. Of course the hole must be in the correct location. Good luck and maybe this solution will help you.

I always use the permanent filter... try it without, perhaps a small cone filter would work just as well..love my PHY. It looks beautiful, and makes a small amount of coffee,as I am the only coffee drinker in this house.

You put the Eco Filter inside of the K2V Cup,(the brown one). It works exactly the same is if you were to use a normal K-Cup. You take the (brown) K2V Cup then put then Eco Filer or Kcup inside it, then just put it in the machine, all done!

I use this in a gray reusable kcup. you can find it at this link.. Keurig My K-Cup Replacement Coffee Filter Set fits B30 B40 B50 B60 B70 series

This is not a reusable filter/kcup it is just the holder for the filter/kcup.You will need something like the solofil or other brand reusable filter/kcup. If you need this part call Keurig direct and they will replace for free.

When I first bought the coffee pod filters it came with a mini sealer. I bought it off http://amazon.com. I actually don't even use it. I just fold the top part of the filter over and it works just fine that way.

Susan,No coffee filter is required. See this short intro at youtube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qbxWE4TSPvk

I don't think you have to use a filter but I do. I don't like those little grinds at the bottom of my cup. I'm not the biggest coffee drinker but I use Folgers.
