We had an earlier model of this and loved it. The only thing we would change is the grounds basket. It does not seat back into the coffee maker as easily and positively as the last model. Failure to do so leads to mess
I would recommend this to a friend!

I don't have a white one but it still makes coffee. I have a black one, so it makes black coffee. You have to add cream for white coffee. It is best to add the cream after it brews. Same with sugar. The gold filter leaves a horrible residue. Paper filters are much, much better. Aluminum filters are also bad. The warmer is a hotter, keeping your brewed coffee hotter than when it brewed - usually called Navy coffee. They do not make extra carafes for this model so be careful not to pour cold water on the hot carafe for your cold brew. Works best when plugged in, otherwise a very long brew time. Better overall brew because of the shower head water spray over the grounds instead of single spout drip which takes longer to wake up the shredded beans. Not self-cleaning, so do not brew without water. The 1-4 cup control actually works only if you use 1-4 cups of water and the same amount of scooped grounds. Be careful to properly seat the filter assembly or you will be cleaning up very hot coffee and grounds from whatever it sits on. So f you don't properly seat the filter assembly, it would be better to put the machine in a deep sink for ease of cleanup. Get a black ont - the coffee turns out better.

Really liked this coffee maker until the coating on the heat bed started to come off.
I have used it for a month and the coffee is great but the quality of the machine is not.
I clean it properly and make sure there is no liquid on it.

Meh, its a coffee machine. I didn't' want a lot of bells and whistles, apps, and fancy things. I wanted a 10 cup, but the smallest is a 12 cup. It seems like companies like this are making things cheaper and cheaper... more breakable plastic parts -- replacing or repairing isn't an option anymore. Throwing them away or getting rid of the electronics is my responsibility and not the company's -- they just make them cheaper and breakable on purpose so I have to buy new. Well guess what.... I'm probably going to quit coffee just because your cheap products are destroying the earth. Make stuff that lasts a long time.
