I found an Amazon order that I lost weeks ago. It fell or more likely was knocked over by an over amorous cat, lost I thought forever.<\/p>\n<p>Everytime I make coffee I had to hold my cone filter over my coffee cup and patienly wait while coffee pours into the cup. It was a small torture that lasted ten minutes. My cone filter device was smaller than the mouth of my coffee cup.<\/p>\n<p>I ordered this fix weeks ago, lost it and found it this morning. My morning coffee was made without pain this morning. Did I mention that I had arthritic hands and latley self diagnosed with Raynauds.<\/p>\n<p>It was painful to hold anything in my hands.<\/p>\n<p><a
