Product Description
Presto MyPod Refillable Coffee Holder - The Philips Senseo coffee maker uses disposable pods to make a delicious cup of coffee. But those pods can get expensive, and they don't have every flavor and type of coffee imaginable. That's where the Presto MyPod can help! It replaces your Senseo's pod holder, allowing you to use your own ground coffee. Simply pour the coffee into the MyPod, put on the compacting cover, and insert it into the Senseo!

This works, but not as well as the coffee duck June 13, 2008

I purchased my presto refillable pod/coffee holder at Wal-Mart. It does work, but there are two things that you must know about this.
This will make a large cup of coffee when you push the single cup button on your Senseo.
This will not froth the coffee the way other products such as the 'Coffee Duck' and 'Ecopad' do.
This will do the job, but I recommend the other products that I just mentioned.

Need to experiment to get it right, sometimes cups overflow, but all in all a good product and it does cut the cost of coffee pods. Be sure to order extra filters!

Face it, the Senso pods are expensive and one cup a day just doesn't cut it for me. I use the Presto MyPod Refillable all the time without the little pod filters (which are a pain and unnecessary) with regular off the shelf maxwell house columbian coffee.
Yes you have to place enough coffee in so the pod top packs it tight.
Yes you have to be sure there are no grounds outside of the pod top.
Yes you have to stand at the machine and shut the pot off once your cup is 3/4 full. (but i normally stand there waiting for it anyway)
No you don't get fancy foam - but fancy foam isn't why i drink coffee.
No the coffee isn't as strong, but i prefer it.
I also love the fact that i can use regular coffee off the shelf in my favorite flavor. I save tons of money and I save the environment from all those spent pods as well.
I'd have given the Presto MyPod 5 stars but the handle is a bit flimsy for the cost so be careful when you're tapping out the grounds and cleaning it.
Not for the darwinian challenged. March 3, 2008

I had to write a review because I came back to buy more filters and was surprised at the negative reviews.
First the construction is top notch. Its only 2 parts a solid metal base with a built in filter that is super easy to clean and a top that presses the grounds. The top even has a metal piece in the center that lets you pull it off when you are done and the senseo machine also uses the metal center to push down on the device.
To understand the negative reviews, yes it offers a little less back pressure than the standard pod holder. Big deal. I found that if you overfill the base a little and use the top to press it together (like the directions tell you to), and then wipe the rim to remove any extra grounds, it is very similar to the amount of coffee with a regular pod. Granted it is a little bit more. But really, has anyone ever been satisfied with the amount of coffee you get when you press the one cup button? Now you actually get a drinkable amount. If you use a big cup the 2 cup setting is great. If it is making to much coffee you are not using enough grounds. I found a little measuring cup in the drawer (1/8 cup I think) measure out whole beans, put in the grinder and fill the MyPod up and use the top to press it down. Perfect every time.
I simply use the one cup button, let it reheat, hit the one cup button again and then simply hit the off button when it gets close to the top, depending on what cup I am using. This takes like 10 seconds.
So correct there is no auto sensing laser adjustment that detects when your coffee is about to overflow, and it doesn't have a cheerleading squad to encourage you to put more grounds in. Its a piece of metal that acts as a great way to brew your own coffee. Its kinda like common sense.
Cleaning is a breeze. I don't know what the negative reviewers are talking about. When I'm done, I hold the pod under running water to cool it off, grab the handy metal puller, and the water washes the grounds away. No problem. I've even learned that you can use the filters many times. I used to throw it away every time, now I use them like 20 times or until they accidentally go down the disposal. This next pack of 100 filters should last until the unit breaks, the senseo, I'm sure the MyPod will out live the Senseo. It does help to run the MyPod underwater and get it wet so that the filter gets wet and stays in place while you place the grounds in it.
If you like your senseo you should buy this its great. Don't let the negative reviews turn you off. If you can't check your oil in your car, you might not be able to use the MyPod. For the rest of us survivors its a great add on to your senseo.
Wonderful Product! February 27, 2008

Let me preface my review by saying that after reading the reviews of the MyPod I was a little wary of buying it. However, it turned out that there was no need to be. I'm not sure how people are having so many problems with it. It seems fairly simple to me. I put in a paper filter, scoop out 1.5 scoops of pre-ground Dunkin Donuts coffee, put on the lid, and then brew. I use the 2 cup setting and I don't think it makes any more than the original Senseo pods do. When it's finished, I take off the lid and immediately rinse it down the sink (with garbage disposal). That's it. So far it's worked flawlessly. I love the fact that I can drink Dunkin coffees without using an old fashioned coffeemaker now. Thanks Presto!
