LOVE that it makes 14 cups instead of only 12. Does everything it claims to do. Just make sure you hear the plastic filter holder SNAP into place, or you will have grounds overflowing the basket. Also, #4 cone filters are just a tad small to accommodate a full 14-cup helping of ground coffee, and #6 cone filters are just a little too big for the filter holder. Easy solution: use the #6 filter & fold about an inch along one side and about 1/2 inch across the bottom.
Biggest complaint: the white measurement markings on the side of the carafe started washing away (with HAND washing!) by about the third washing. For as much as this machine costs, such a simple thing to not get right is unacceptable. I had to go back over the very faint marks with a black permanent Sharpie. I just hope it's as permanent on glass as it is everywhere else.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Bought this 14 cup as a replacement for our 12 cup that lasted us a long time. Still a great coffee maker but does occasionally drip when you are pouring the water into the reservoir even if you go slowly. It’s almost like the lid needs to open up just a tiny bit farther and it would never happen. Still a great machine!

This is absolutely one of the best Coffee Makers I have owned. Simplicity, beauty, functionality, and durability all rolled up into a real nice machine.

I have bought four of these over the years for two different houses. They work very well for me with paper filter. I used to make French Roast Coffee, and now make French Roast Decaf. I usually make 4-6 cups at a time using both the Bold and "1-4 cups" settings. Always comes out delicious.

We had this first model 6 1/2 years ago, used daily once or twice during that entire time with no problems, then no longer working as we had expected, we have no complaints about the durability. Certainly comes highly recommend to both friends and family.

We should have bought this coffee maker earlier! The coffee it makes is fantastic! I`ve heard temperature was important and now i know it`s true. This coffee maker makes the best coffee!
