Keurig 2.0 Water Filter Cartridges review

Two genuine Keurig filter cartridges for 2.0 K-Cup machines, fitted into the water filter assembly.

Where we land on it Two cartridges in the maker's own box, with no replacement interval and no standard. On this shelf a third party sells twelve for a Keurig at roughly double the price — four times the filters for the money.

What the maker puts in writing

  • 2 cartridges
  • Compatible with Keurig 2.0 K-Cup pod coffee makers
  • Place the cartridge in the water filter assembly, then into the reservoir
  • For better tasting beverages

That is the whole listing. It is the least informative page on this shelf.

Two against twelve

A third-party pack for the same Keurig machines sits on this shelf with twelve cartridges, a named medium, a list of what it removes and a two-month replacement schedule, for roughly twice this price.

Per filter, at the reading behind this page, that is about four to one. What the OEM box adds is the Keurig name on the packet and the certainty of fit; what it does not add is a single published figure.

Availability

Read on the day this page was built: $6 at the American Amazon shop.

What it gets right, and wrong

Strengths

  • The maker’s own cartridge, so the fit in the filter assembly is not in question
  • The lowest total price on this shelf, for anyone who only needs one or two
  • Explains where the cartridge goes, which matters because a Keurig filter sits inside a separate assembly

Compromises

  • Five bullets and not one figure: no interval, no medium, no contaminants named, no certification
  • Two cartridges, where a third-party pack for the same machines on this shelf holds twelve
  • The highest cost per filter on the shelf by a wide margin at the reading behind this page

Where this one stands among its neighbors

At $6, it is the 1 cheapest of the 8 models in this category published here.

  • Least costly of the neighbors$6
  • Median$12

What people want to know

How often do I change it?

The listing does not say. The third-party Keurig pack on this shelf publishes two months or sixty tank refills, and two Cuisinart filters here publish the same interval. On that schedule, two cartridges is four months.

What does it actually filter?

The listing says only *for better tasting beverages*. It names no medium, no contaminant and no test. Every other filter on this shelf at least names charcoal or carbon and lists chlorine, calcium and odors; one cites NSF-42.

Is the third-party pack safe to use?

This page cannot test either. What it can say is what is published: the third-party Keurig pack on this shelf names its medium, names the machine series it fits and publishes a replacement interval; this one does none of the three.
