The product is good, visually appealing and makes good coffee, although I was expecting it to be hotter. My quirk is after pot is finished brewing and you pull it out to pour your cup, there is a puddle of coffee on top of the pot and it runs down the side of the pot. I would have thought that this would not be happening on a coffee maker of this caliber.

We love our coffee maker. Is easy to use, Wi-Fi set up was fast and looks good on kitchen counter.
I would recommend this to a friend!

This is a beautiful coffee maker. I am hopeful to understand if it makes coffee automatically on schedule. I love the boldness of the coffee. Delicious every cup!

Hi there,
Thanks so much for connecting. We're so glad to hear that you're pleased with your new coffee maker! Yes, this model does make coffee automatically. It's called the Auto Brew feature. For more information on how this works, please refer to page 11 of the Owner's Manual.

My husband bought it because the high temperature for the coffee. He got it in white. After a while the carafe handle started to peel and come apart by the joint. I just cut myself with that metal. Such a high end appliance to have poor material

Hello there! We appreciate you for taking the time to provide feedback. We are so sorry to hear that your carafe is experiencing issues with the handle breaking. This is in no way the consumer experience that we strive for, and we would like to gather some further information from you. An agent will be reaching out to you via email. Please respond to the email at your earliest convenience. We are looking forward to connecting with you. - Adrian@Cafe
Water seeped into the carafe's insulation barrier.

After about 3 months of use, we now have a constant "swishing" sound of water trapped in the carafe's thermal barrier. If I shake the thermal carafe over the sink, some water will slowly drip out of the bottom seam of the carafe. Not sure if the seam defect is both interior (creating a potential health risk) or just the outside seam. Since we wash the carafe after each use, I do not think the seam is just compromised from the anterior only! Recommendations?
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hi,
We're sorry to hear water has seeped into the carafe. We recommend calling your dealer and taking advantage of your warranty. To see the terms of your Cafe warranty and how to initiate a claim, refer to page 16 of the owner's manual. Find it here:
The water reservoir and coffee tray needs the ability to dry the water after a brew. I place a spacer between the cover of the water reservoir and shift the coffee holder slightly to allow air to dry it out. I wish I didn't have to do it but it's not that much of problem.

Hi,
We're glad you're enjoying the performance of this coffee maker. Your comments on its design are well received and we appreciate you sharing them with us. It's a pleasure having you in the Cafe family, and we're glad this unit could make your mornings brighter.
It looks nice, but unfortunately it’s poorly made. The display fell off the coffee maker after using it just once. You’d expect better quality for the price, and for the name/series. Now let’s see how long it takes for warranty to replace it, and if the next one gives any issues. Sad thing is my Cafe Bellisimo had issues within the first month, but luckily they replaced that one. Please GE “Cafe”, do better by the consumer.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hi there! Thank you for your feedback. We are so sorry to hear that your new coffee maker's display fell off after just one use of the machine. This is definitely not normal operation and is also not the consumer experience that we strive for. We can assure you that our warranty team will get you a replacement as soon as possible so you can resume the coffee brewing process.
We are honored to have you as a part of the Cafe Appliances family, and we are sure that once your coffee maker is replaced you will enjoy it for many years to come! - Adrian@Cafe
