Our second one -- first lasted 10 years. That should be enough said...but will it is an excellent coffeemaker in that it is very reliable, easy to use and great value.
I would recommend this to a friend!

All in all, this appears to be a well-made and reliable coffee maker. The temperature is about right, the controls seem durable, and it's about the right speed. It's difficult to tell the water level (you have to look straight down into the reservoir at something that resembles a stepladder); but at least that system can spring leaks like a sight glass could.
There are no fancy controls for brew strength and things along those lines, but in my experience they don't do anything anyway. There is a button for small batch, which does seem to work. I don't notice any difference in taste making a single cup versus a full pot.
All in all, I'm happy with it. Nothing fancy about it, but it brews good coffee.
I would recommend this to a friend!
