I've been considering this Scotts re-usable filter for some time now:

Anyone have any experience, testimonials/condemnations, or opinions
about these (or the concept)?

This link steered me away from this kind of filter:

The key points are that even "laser cut" holes of 40 microns or so are
still larger than the holes in a paper lattice, and once a hole gets
clogged, it's clogged.  The 3-dimensional paper lattice doesn't clog the
same way.
