Pros & Cons
Pros
The filtron produces an excellent cold brew concentrate. The concentrate is not really a concentrate but it still produces a good cup of iced coffee.
The filtron system has some minor flaws. It has fewer learning curves and is more forgiving than the toddy. I'd call this a toddy maker myself, even though some disagree.

Highlights
Quality
Excellent product works well with quest naturals pro nut bag to filter coffee
If you use quality freshly ground coffee beans this system makes cold brew coffee better than anywhere else ive been
I always got sediment with the jar and bag method
It takes up a lot of space it takes a fair of amount of time to prepare each brew and each brew will take no less than 12 hours... Read More
Packaging/appearance
It tends to get clogged a bit when dripping into the container maybe im using too finely ground coffee
I did my homework when it came to buying a cold brew system and all signs pointed towards the filtron
It did stain the filter bag the plug and the felt pad
Competitiveness
After roughly a decade of using the toddy brand coldpress maker i am so glad to have switched
Weve had our filtron for about two years now and have used it countless times
After going through two toddy brewers i tried a filtron when it was time to buy a new one
Before i purchased the filtron unit i was making cold brew with a one gallon jar and a muslin drawstring bag full of ground

While that system works fine for cold brew decanting the coffee can be messy and getting the grounds out of the bag is likewise a messy process
