Bosch Brita Intenza TCZ7003 Walter Filter for Fully Automated Coffee Machine Series TCA 7 / TCC 7 / TES 70

This filter works great in my Solis Perfetta Plus Esspresso machine. I've been using this as a replacement for 2 years. I've never had a problem with the fitment of functionality.

My Solis espresso machine came with a water filter but I soon found that you cannot buy more of them in the US at this time....Solis says they are having a problem with their vendor. Odd. Anyway, this Bosch version seems to be identical (except it adds a useless little nob at the top), has the exact same dimensions to fit into the backet in the bottom of the Solis water tank, and is aimed at reducing the impact of hard water, extending the time when descaling will be needed and uses the same Aroma ring A, B and C settings....just like the Solis version. Another review noted it needs a good push to fit in the tank bracket, but that is normal....just like the Solis version, it has a seal that gets inverted when you push it into position, thus sealing it in place, and that inversion takes a little push. Not sure why Bosch can sell this and Solis can't get their act together, but there you go....

If your using this on a solis machine you will need to push in with your thumb the inner plastic ring. It faces a bit outward from the factory. The original is identical to this. I threw mine away before posting this review so cant show a side by side.

I bought this for my SOLIS BARISTA PERFETTA PLUS ESPRESSO MACHINE, but it wouldn’t fit without modifying the opening on the bottom. Otherwise, it seems fine.

I've never been unsatisfied with a Bosch product. High quality products at a reasonable price. This water filter lasts a long time and does a great job.

Works with Solis Barist Perfetta Plus espresso machine. Hopefully won't need to be replaced for best part of a year.

Using this filter with a Bosch built-in Coffee machine. The filter often disconnects from base of water tank, find it floating about 3 of 5 times. This is likely error on my part. I do think the coffee has a better taste when the filter remains attached.

Edit: Yes it really does fit the Solis but you need to apply some force to get it to fit. No need to cut it. Don't be afraid, just use some muscle and push it down into place. It will work.The Solis Brita Intenza filter has been out of stock for a while now. This looks exactly the same and other than being a little tight fitting and needing a firm push to squeeze into place, it works exactly the same. Very happy to have a filter for my machine again. It makes a big difference with the coffee quality.
