Best cup of coffee I've ever brewed at home and better than most coffee shops. I'm sure the carbon filter is responsible for better water and thus better coffee.
Easy to use, I really like the larger carafe at 14 oz. Brews fast and keeps the carafe warm without scorching the coffee. I highly recommend this brewer.
Purchased less then two months ago and have brewed less than 15 pots. The buttons have randomly become unresponsive. I wake up in the morning not knowing if the "Brew" button will work or not. Build quality is flimsy. Would not recommend.
