Customer Reviews: I love my Quick CupMarch 3, 2008 M. D. Consterdine(Newcastle, Staffs, UK) 81 out of 81 found this review helpful
I am only writing this review because of the slightly misleading nature of the other review.
The instruction manual suggests a new filter every 6 - 10 weeks depending on the water in your area and how much use the device gets. But the machine will operate without a filter at all and just because the light suggests a new filter after 2 or 3 weeks you don't have to get one.
I have had mine since Christmas and love it (especially good if like me you use coffee bags - bag in Mug press button walk away come back 5 minutes later), everyone who's seen it wants one!
I live in a hard water area and only now after 10 weeks am I about to purchase a new filter.

I love Tefal Quick CupOctober 31, 2008 Bewitched(UK) 9 out of 9 found this review helpful
I am writing this review because I love the Tefal Quick Cup and wouldn't hesitate to recommend it to anyone.
Both my husband and I use it on a regular basis and after 5 weeks we're still using the original cartridge which I think is excellent. As for energy saving then it remains to be seen if our electric bills go down, but at the same time as buying this kettle we did change all our light bulbs to energy saving ones, but in this climate I guess every little helps.
The only downside of the Tefal Quick Cup is how noisy it is, but since its only for a few seconds per cup its easy to put up with.
I have read mixed reviews but I read with an open mind and prefer to make my own mind up and in this instance I'm glad that I did.
Red light means descale NOT replace filterFebruary 10, 2009 A. Dawkins(Leicester, UK) 5 out of 5 found this review helpful
Having just read the reviews (whilst shopping for filters), I noticed that some of the comments mention the red light. Reading the instructions, I was under the impression that this was the 'Time to descale me' function and not the change filter light. The filters have a time window on them so you can set it to the week you install and it visually shows you when the filter will need changing, 6 weeks later.
I change my filters approx. every 8 weeks rather than the recommended 6 and have had no problem.
I have owned the tefal since last fathers day and a quick tip is to run the descaling process twice (with the same vinegar) when the light flashes. it makes a big difference to the length of time between descaling - Avg. of every 4 weeks to avg. every 7.
Pros : Does what it says it does.
Cons : Noisy when running, Avg. £30-£40 per year on filters & vinegar.
I hope you find this review useful.
beware splashing hot waterMarch 15, 2008 Martin Crouch 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
i do not regret buying this product as it does exactly what it says.
i have been splashed several times with hot water when it dispenses water into the cup and consider people should take care when standing near the machine.
