Trans fats!?
I was going to buy these until I saw that they contained trans fats (partially hydrogenated vegetable oil in Cocoa Crispies, Fruit Loops, and Corn Pops). Who wants to send their kids off to school loaded up with deadly trans fats?
cereal bowls
I was tired of buying so many boxes of cereal a week. My teenage son eats it like its going out of style. And there are bowls and spoons all over the house. I tried this to try and get a variety. They actually lasted about a month and it was nice to not have bowls to wash. Now if only the spoon were included! Also, it would be nice to have even more variety, but all in all, great purchase.
Robbery
The cost and lack of availability of these filters is robbery. If I had known about the problems and cost involved in finding them in the first place I never would have bought a mr coffee, and in the future I will be very skeptical of mr coffee. If I tried to replace the filters from the mr coffee web site at the suggested rate of one per month it would cost me about $60 a year.
Yikes
I removed this item from my cart at checkout....$9.40 for shipping 10 little coffee filters!! I will pay more at Wal Mart and be happy!
Not what I expected
I thought when I purchased this item that I was getting as it stated '..the water filter replacement disk' but what I got was the entire assembly that houses the disk and the disk. I had the housing I only needed the replacement disk as was stated. Also the picture shows how the replacement disks come - two to a package. This came one assembly to a package. Not at all clear. :-(
Another rip-off marketing idea....
YOU DON'T NEED THESE!!! With the cost of these filters alone you could buy a BRAND NEW coffee maker almost every year. If you drink water from your tap or have a water filter (like a Brita or Pur) then you are just throwing money away. Would you like a samll order of fries to go with your large order of fries sir/maddam.
