This coffee machine is worth every cent! I have used pre-ground and whole beans in this machine. Every pot or cup of coffee I brew tastes fantastic and not watered down or burnt. The coffee machine is very simple to use. You can brew either a whole pot of coffee (up to 12 cups) or a single cup of coffee. The coffee pot is insulated so it keeps the coffee very warm throughout the day. I have brewed many pots of coffee in the morning and by the end of the day the coffee is still warm (not piping hot, but warm). There is not a heating plate to warm the insulated pot. I really like the feature where you can brew just one cup of coffee. That is what really sold me on buying this machine. The machine is easy to clean. It is not dishwasher safe, so everything has to be hand washed. I usually just brew my coffee, then remove the housing that holds the gold filter and I wipe down the machine. The machine does come with a mini brush for cleaning the machine. The only type of water that you can use in this machine is either tap water or filtered water. You cannot used distilled water. It does take some time to brew a cup or pot of coffee since it infuses the coffee before brewing. But, it is well worth the wait. I highly recommend this machine. It is expensive, but like I had mentioned before it is well worth the price. It makes a better cup of coffee compared to the Keurig machine.
