I received this item as a promotion in exchange for my honest feedback. I have used this every day since I have received it and could not be happier! Instead of feeling wasteful by throwing out a used plastic K Cup every day, I use this and just rinse it out. Plus, I get to use all the beans that I already had AND support LOCAL BUSINESS by purchasing beans from local roasters. This is a must-have for anyone that owns a Keurig!
