No carafe to break! Easy

Love this coffeemaker. I have had this for 5 years. Still going strong. No worries about a glass carafe breaking! Easy to clean. I’ve only used filtered water and have no build up. Only concern is it cannot handle more than 1/2 cup coffee grinds. It will overflow and grind get in the coffee. I normally only make 8 cups a day. I don’t have that issue. I will replace when it breaks.

I purchased this product after realizing my regular coffee pot did not make as great of coffee as my family members Cuisinart. The difference in temperature is profound and my coffee comes out perfect every time! The machine is easy to use and there's no pot to worry about. I will be recommending this to all my friends and family.
I would recommend this to a friend!

It’s a nice pot but it would be nice if there was some kind of pour spout on the pot that holds the coffee. Sometimes the coffeemaker shuts off before we have drank all the coffee and we have to pour it into our insulated carafe. A pour spout would make it much easier.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Clean light notification: too often

This is an interesting coffee maker. I like there is no carafe to get broken. My issue with it is every 4-5 uses it needs to be cleaned, not because it’s dirty but because the clean light comes on and will not shutoff otherwise. There is no reason to clean this machine so much.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I really like this coffee maker but it would be nice if I could turn the warmer on after the initial 4 hour mark. And I don't like the moisture build-up where the grinds are. That's pretty messy but not a deal breaker. I love the fact that my dad can set his cup down and push a button to pour coffee instead of picking up a heavy carafe. Love that it's easy to fill the water also.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I love that it doesn't have pot and makes 12 cups of coffee. You can also get a cup of coffee while it is brewing. I would recommend this coffee maker.
