Coffee dispenser works fine. Unfortunately, there is a taste of Coffee with the hot water reservoir, so it's kind of useless.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I love this coffee pot. The only negative is the small area where you pour the water for the coffee section. It is in the back and relatively small. This is my 2nd one of these and really like that I have my coffee and husband has hot water for his tea.
This pot makes the best coffee we have had in a while. The components are sturdy, the pot does not drip when pouring, and fits in small spaces. The hot water is added bonus but needs time to reheat if fixing more than one cup. Overall a fantastic purchase.
This works well for a tea and coffee household. This coffee maker makes a great cup of coffee and is easy to use. Having the separate tank for hot water has made my life easier as well. I don't have to have multiple machines on my counter.
One of the best purchases I've ever made. Has everything you need for coffee,tea, or hot cocoa. Doesn't take up much counter space. Very reasonable price. I love it!
