It got in the way while cleaning and I ended up snapping one of the ends while cleaning and decided to just pull it off completely. I have broken the handle off, but I don't really miss it. I also grind my own coffee (a course grind) so maybe this wouldn't be an issue for some store bought ground coffee. I bought this so that I didn't have to keep buying paper filters. The filter cleans pretty easy and has no discoloration after 1 month of almost daily use. It does let some of the really small grounds through, but far less than my Bodum french press.
I recently purchased a Medelco #4 Cone Permanent Coffee Filter to replace the original filter in my Braun 10-cup coffee machine. The Medelco works fine, but is a little shorter than the original Braun filter (so if you want an exact fit this would not be your best choice).
Medelco #4 Cone Permanent Coffee FilterGreat Product - just changing sizes.
The cost is very effective to our household. I am very pleased with my item. Especially, not spending so much on paper coffee filters.
So glad we won't have to buy paper filters anymore - helping the environment just a little bit. :) The filter empties fine into the trash - you may have to tap it against the side of your trashcan a bit - again not a problem for me. Not a problem for me. It works great with my Gevalia coffeemaker that uses #4 cone paper filters. I bought this filter a couple weeks ago & love it. As another reviewer mentioned, if you use fine coffee grounds, there will be just a little residue in the bottom of the coffeepot or cup. And it rinses out perfectly under running water.
