This purchase was one of the best I ever made. My husband and I love the flavor of the coffee we get on the bold setting. Thank you GE for a wonderful product!
I purchased this machine because it has: 1) 10 cup capacity; 2) water reservoir carbon filter; 3) is SCAA Gold cup certified machine; 4) WiFi capability. This machine works to produce a solid cup of coffee every morning for me. I use in conjunction with a burr grinder to grind my beans fresh each morning. I didn't think having the WiFi connection would be as beneficial as it has been, but it's fun when you oversleep and can tell Alexa to "start brewer" and by the time I get to the kitchen, the coffee is ready.

I've used this machine for just over 3 months now and no complaints. My wish list would be to have control over the pre-infusion (this machine doesn't offer this feature) but I must say, the brew chamber is completely closed when brewing so no steam escapes and the wide/large showerhead provides more than enough coverage for the brew basket. I usually brew on the Gold setting for 8 cups and haven't experienced any boil overs as some of the other comments mentioned. I also like the chime sound (vs. the usual beep with other machines). I forgot to mention the attractiveness is a bonus as this is one of the best looking drip machines I have seen.
This coffee maker brews coffee to perfection. There are 4 different brew settings, gold and bold are my favorite. It brews faster than the other makers I’ve had. It is sleek and looks great on my countertop. My favorite Christmas present.
I went back and forth between the glass carafe versus the insulated one. I order the version with the insulated carafe and I could not be happier with my purchase. I will be saving on my daily trips to DD and have a stylish coffee maker in my kitchen.
Love this smart coffee machine. Only thing I would consider upgrading would be 12 cup capacity and hot plate after brewed (steel carafe helps to keep warm for 2 hours)
