So I have been using this coffee maker for over 25 years. Do the upgrades I can not say were so needed. With a thermal container and no hot plate keep coffee for over 4 hours. Love this coffeemaker

Machine grinding is noisy. In addition, I have noticed that cleaning is requires daily. I would prefer a larger bean grinding capacity to eliminate adding bean for each individual grind and brew cup. I suspect that the high grinding blade RPM contributes to the inadequate cleaning.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
