Hamilton BeachPermanent Gold Filter, Fits Most 8 to 12-Cup Coffee Makers (80675R)

The "Hamilton Beach 80675 Permanent Gold Tone Filter" WORKS VERY NICELY in the "Hamilton Beach 47665 BrewStation Plus 12-Cup Automatic Drip Coffeemaker"!!!!!! : DPlease note - & I cannot stress this enough - it ONLY works well in the Hamilton Beach BrewStation ***PLUS*** models. It will be loose in the basket, shift around, & be forever uncentered in the cheaper version of the Hamilton Beach BrewStation the next grade down (models 47224, 47114, 47214, 47221, 47111, & the like) - which has a totally different basket & housing design than the BrewStation Plus models. Oddly enough, one of the NON-Plus BrewStation models IT DOES NOT FIT is actually pictured on the box for this filter & it erroneously states "Fits All BrewStation Coffeemakers" - but it *will NOT fit well at all* in that model, as people have already pointed out in disgust below, & rightly so.I bought a permanent filter locally made by Mr. Coffee, & it fit the basket circumferance wise - but it stood too high to close the lid to the Hamilton Beach BrewStation PLUS. And where I live, it's the only permanent filter sold in town. So I returned it, & I ordered this model instead. And Wha-Laaa!!! The Hamilton Beach Permanent Filter 80675 works just as nice as a paper filter in the BrewStation PLUS. Maybe nicer, as the water seems to drain better. No wild overflows, & no messy coffee coated water distributer left in the wake of the brewing cycle. Just nice coffee.It's too bad Hamilton Beach flubbed & pictured the wrong BrewStation model on the box to go with this filter - instead of one of the BrewStation PLUS models that it actually does fit. I'm not surprised to hear people who have the NON-Plus BrewStations are ticked. This filter, like the Mr. Coffee Permanent Filter, will not stay centered in the basket & will shift around loosely in a NON-Plus regular BrewStation basket by about a half inch. My guess is the water at times would completely miss this basket in these NON-Plus models & flow directly into the coffee tank. And I can see where it may perhaps even overflow in other brands that require a higher standing basket, like the Mr. Coffee Filter. This filter fits the Brewstation PLUS basket circumferance much more closely than it will fit in the regular (& more cheaply made) Hamilton Beach BrewStation. It fits so naturally in my BrewStation PLUS, & it's just become part of the appliance. The only giveaway that it's really an accessory is that it's brown, instead of black like the coffee machine.If you have a Hamilton Beach BrewStation PLUS (& it has to be the PLUS version of the Brewstation, or you will be really unhappy with its performance & your brew) - I recommend giving this filter a shot.I hope my "field work" helps people to avoid buying bad fitting filters, to leave soggy, ripping, spilling, dripping paper filters in the past where they belong, & to finally get their coffee. :)For those curious about the "Hamilton Beach 47665 BrewStation Plus 12-Cup Automatic Drip Coffeemaker" performance, please see my other reviews.Yours truly,"Starbucks Rogers" : D

I recently purchased the Hamilton Beach Permanent Gold Tone Filter for my coffee maker and I am extremely impressed with its performance. The filter is made of a durable, dishwasher-safe, gold-tone mesh that effectively removes impurities and improves the taste of my coffee. It's also very easy to install and remove, and it fits most 8-12 cup coffee makers.The filter is also very easy to clean, I simply rinse it with water and let it dry. The gold-tone mesh is also reusable, which is great for the environment and it saves me money on buying paper filters.The filter also allows the full coffee flavor to filter through, which is great for coffee lovers who want to fully enjoy the taste of their coffee. The filter also helps to reduce chlorine, bad taste, and odor from tap water, which improves the overall quality of the coffee.Overall, I highly recommend the Hamilton Beach Permanent Gold Tone Filter for anyone looking for an easy to use, reusable, and effective filter that improves the taste of their coffee. It's also great for the environment and it saves money on paper filters

Had it for about two years and it still does the job. I recommend it.

Works well, the only issue I have is that the handle falls into the basket so it can end up underneath the grounds. If this happens you have to either dig for the handle in the grounds, or pull out the entire basket along with the filter so that you can then pull grab the basket. Not a big deal but it would be nice if it instead laid on the rim of the filter. This is easy to clean, the mesh is small enough to not let any grounds through, and unlike a paper filter, it lets the coffee oils flow through so you get a better tasting cup of coffee. The plastic edges are smooth with no snags or mold overflows that weren't trimmed and cleaned up. The gold mesh is securely attached with no gaps to allow grounds through. Our local supermarket sells an off-brand for half the cost, but the plastic frame was incredibly rough with blobs all over where the melted plastic overflowed from the mold. The screen was made up of multiple small pieces that are haphazardly glued in, and the inside of the where the mesh was glued to the plastic had thick, white patches of glue all over. Yuck. I could have purchased it and save a couple of bucks, but I would have ended up buying a new one in a very short time. Better to buy the best one just one time rather than buying the crappy, cheap one over and over again.

This permanent filter is well made, easy to wash and beats having to fool with the paper filters. Some have complained about the handle not being sturdy but it only stays at the top of the filter when you put it down one direction. If you lay it the wrong way it will fall into the filter.
