Ok... I'm a little confused here. Do i need to buy the whole set of simple cups (lids, body and the paper filters)? or the lids & paper filters only?

You can buy the lids only if you want to use your old K-cups over. After letting it cool, peel the aluminum foil cover off the used cup. You'll see there is a filter glued to the inside cup. Rinse it out good then let it set and dry.When dry fill the cup with what ever coffee you want not quite all the way to the top" cause you don't want the coffee keeping the lid from sealing", then press the lid on being careful not to collapse the cup in the process. The hole in bottom of the cup won't hurt a thing, it gives the cup an extra drain hole.

i dont you use filters, infact i bought the permanent lid cover cause the provided lid cover kept falling off the lid blocking the container ,leaving me with a mess

You are getting the paper filters for the device. The are just like the OEM filters.

You need the K Cup , the filters go in the K cup. I use these all the time as I can use my Dunkin Donuts coffee and not pay for the individual k cups that are so expensive.

If you don't have the EZ cup you will need to purchase it. These filters work the same as the filters in a regular coffee maker and you need a holder.

You have to buy the grey EZ cup to use with the filters. I think using two filters (the reusable screen one and the paper) makes it weaker so I use my coffee grinder to grind the regular coffee finer before filling it. I've never tried using the paper filter without using the EZ cup screen filter. I bought extra screen filters as well as the paper filters.

Cool thanks! I have decided to order it. Just got it today! Excited to use it. Wondering where to get the filters for the glass attachments. Have to figure that out later. I know they last a while. So that will be figured out later I guess.

The pods act as the only filter on this unite and there is no additional filtering. If you wanted to use your own grounds, you'd need to make your own pods (there are kits for this) or find a separate compatible filter.

It is my understanding the primary reason for the filters is to enhance the taste, and it certainly does that for me, and I prefer using them. Other than that, I don't think the filters are necessary. I recommend you refer to your original manual for further clarification

Yes, they sell paper filters that are ok... plus they have plastic ones which I use , put the ground coffee inside but don't use the lid that comes with it... works great...

Just the filter is enough. I use only paper filters (without the "real" filter), I don't know why! I use either Starbucks or Dunkin Donuts. Enjoy! It is a great little coffee maker.

It includes the lids also. The lids fit tightly on the cups which I find a big plus.

No, this is just the container. You'll need to buy the actual filter separately.

It does not say it requires them, but unless you like cleaning grounds out of the gunk at the bottom afterward, it would be wise to use them. I've seen paper filters shaped like discs for sale, but you don't need to spend extra money--just lay out a normal 12-cup paper filter flat and poke a hole in the middle, then lay it inside the filter basket. It'll save you having to clean out the nozzle later.

I'm satisfied with just the cups. They come with a booklet describing different ways to stack, number of cups etc. unless you are entering into competition, I would stick with just the cups.

Emily, All parts are included, even a few paper filters to get you started. All you need is espresso, milk and any flavorings you may wish to add. Sue

Not sure, cause I've never used the simple cup tops. However, the Ekobrew filter is really cheap and I use these filters in it to make clean up really quick.
