Had to return. The programmable feature does not work.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great basic coffee maker! I bought this about a month ago to replace my old Cuisinart coffee maker, which while still working, had seen better days. I think this is going on my 3rd one over many decades. Reliable as always. Great product for a reasonable price. Plus, I'm very glad it came with the gold filter so I didn't have to make a separate purchase.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Purchased July 2026 in order to break away from Keurig coffee makers that I’ve owned the last 15 years. It’s a lot more trouble however, but totally acceptable for getting away from the plastic in my coffee produced by plastic coffee pods. One drawback for me is the carafe because its design doesn’t fully allow total emptying of water after rinsing or washing it as it stays inside the rim, thus requiring a bit more work.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This new and improved coffeemaker is wonderful! It makes great coffee. We are very happy with it, after our previous Cuisinart coffeemaker went kaput after 5 years.
Pretty good coffeemaker although I would recommend using the filters in the basket . I tried using the chrome one only without the paper filters and got "sand" in the bottom of the cup.. Immediately went and bought the paper ones to use.
