It Brews good coffee. The problem is that metal handle peels. Have never submerged the pot, yet the metal is peeling off. Very unsightly.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

We understand the importance of an appliance looking as good as new, and we are apologetic that the handle is peeling on your carafe. We encourage you to view replacement options for this part at the link below.
we love the style of the unit and we love the color. its nice to the temperature control. My only downfall with this unit is that it’s not a 12 cup coffee maker.other than that this unit is perfect. I really enjoy the way my coffee tastes and hope it stays like this. I would definitely recommend this coffee maker to anyone interested in style and taste.
UPDATE: Great Coffee Beautiful Design-BUYER BEWARE

UPDATE to my earlier review. We successfully removed the bottom of the pot. required drilling through one anti-tamper screw. Snipped the wire to the malfunctioning sensor, by passed it by connecting the wires and it works. I know this is not ideal but at least I have an operating coffee pot. I have two of these pots so its quite an investment. CAFE if you care to improve your ratings get a better sensor or eliminate the feature. Many pots do not have it.

The handle material started peeling within 6 months. This is not a cheap coffeemaker and I expected better quality. There are many reviews reporting the same problem. The material peeling away is also sharp and we have to be cautious when using the carafe.

This is the best coffee maker I've owned. I love how it operates, how it looks, and great coffee it brews. I like it so much I bought a second one a year later for our other home. HOWEVER, the pot we have been using daily for a year has quit brewing coffee, two months out of warranty. There is a error message. The carafe sensor the resides under the pot is not recognizing the pot so there is an error and it won't brew. Online there are no parts available to service. Doing some research we discovered that other owners have taken off the bottom of the unit and by passed the carafe sensor and then it works (the sensor tells the unit not to brew if there is not a carafe in place). Disappointing for sure with an expensive pot like this. On the second pot we bought for our other home had to be replaced, the knob you turn to make sections was not working. Not a great track record. I love both pots and will be by passing the carafe sensor. If that's too much effort for you don't buy. Cafe should recall or extend the warranty.
