Judsie
fromCosta Mesa CA
Clean lines, slim profile, easy to operate, delivers coffee at nice hot temperature, carafe keeps coffee hot long enough to have a "midmorning" cup if you desire. Love the simplicity of design and operation. Only owned a few weeks but very pleased and highly recommend.
Pros: Cord length, Easy to Clean/Wash, Easy to change/Empty filter, easy to use, construction, Appearance/ Design /Style

The coffee maker is still new but so far so good. Makes excellent coffee and stays hot enough to leisurely read the Sunday paper and enjoy coffee.

We Love This Coffee Pot
PostedJune 3, 2011
Cbluebeardgo
fromMO
This coffee pot really will stay hot for ten hours then its just warm after that. You have to keep the lid tight and the cap on it. Very easy to use. We use the automatic brew for when my husband gets up for work so his coffee is waiting for him and I am able to drink the rest through out the day. I have only had it a couple weeks now. The handle kind of makes a click when you pick it up like maybe it could become loose but that may not be true at all. I haven't read anything about the handle becoming a problem so they all might do that. This pot does have a pretty short cord which is kind of different but we love that because the outlet is directly behind our pot.
Pros: Value for Money, quality, Easy to change/Empty filter, Fast/ Speed, easy to use, size, Appearance/ Design /Style, Performs Well, Functional/Useful

Takes to long to brew
PostedFebruary 16, 2011
lisaM
fromRingwood, NJ
This review is coming from a coffee snob, that brews using a manual melitta.
The coffee takes entirely too long to brew. It took 12 minutes for a full pot. As a result, the coffee is bitter.
In order for coffee to not become bitter, it needs to brew in five minutes time.

Other than that, it did work ok, the thermos kept the coffee hot. I did return it though. I'm going back to manual brewing.
Pros: Appearance/ Design /Style, Functional/Useful
Cons: takes too long to brew

makes good coffee
PostedJanuary 10, 2011
Joanswims
fromMartinsville, VA
Before purchasing, I read reviews at Chefs Catalog. They all said that this makes good coffee, although other people didn't like the small hole for coffee to enter thermos. I agree completely. You have to think ahead and make sure that the thermos is positioned exactly under the basket. I've had it a week and it seems to work fine. As long as the coffee is good, any other issues can be dealt with.
Pros: easy to use, Performs Well, Easy to view/Read
Cons: Difficult to use

Nice Product

I bought this for a relative, and it seems to be a nice product so far. Aside from the stylish looks, the coffeemaker does make full flavored coffee. The thermal carafe does work well. When compared to other coffeemakers in this price range, I do recommend this one.

I am very happy with this coffee maker. Found I need less coffee for the same flavor. I would like the carafe to keep it hotter but it is still better than my old burner pot.

Disapointed

sfarm

Brews well, easy to use. Thermos does not keep coffee warm very long. When it finishes brewing, I have to pour it into a real thermos so I could have got a glass carafe machine that would make more coffee.
Pros: Appearance/ Design /Style, Easy to change/Empty filter, Easy to Clean/Wash, easy to use, Easy to view/Read
Cons: thermos is inefficient

Good coffee. Fine machine.

fromPortland, Oregon
Most importantly, it makes good coffee. We've been very pleased. The unit itself is unexpectedly *very* lightweight. Placing the carafe back in place generally moves the machine across the counter. I may invest in some rubber "feet" for the bottom. And, as was noted in my research, regular #4 filters will not fit properly in the basket. They're just slightly too big.
Pros: Appearance/ Design /Style, Easy to change/Empty filter, Easy to Clean/Wash, easy to use, Performs Well, Value for Money
