The ready/auto-off alarm is very loud. Can be heard throughout the house. It can be turned off or on though. I really like the “bold” option button. Perfect for my coffee needs

Two odd things about this product I wish I had noticed before purchase: 1- the lid on the carafe is cheap plastic and comes all the way off instead of just hinging. I can’t imagine that the lid will last very long. I think eventually the plastic will wear out and not clip into place the way it’s supposed to. 2- the top of the machine opens up to 90 degrees with a hinge at the back. I didn’t realize when I purchased this just how difficult that would make pouring in the measured water. You either have to pour it from high above the machine and hope you don’t make a mess, or slightly over fill the carafe knowing that you won’t be able to get all the water into the reservoir.
Kind of seems to me like this coffee maker was designed by people who never actually make coffee.

A very classy looking coffee maker and some great features. I like the varied heat pad choices low to high and that it keeps coffee hot for 4 hours. This is programmable but I do not like keeping things plugged in due to electric outages so its fine without the clock running 24/7. The 14 cup carafe is heavy and has a very good grip handle. It comes with a water filter which I haven't used yet,.and a reusable coffee filter or can use paper filters. Some nice options.It comes also with a bold or regular brew option as well. Coffee is delicious! I use DD brand.

Great coffee pot. My husband complained that our last one didn't keep the coffee temperature hot enough for him so I had to get a new one. This seems to be doing a great job!
