This is a wonderful coffee maker. It has a few problems but this is outweighed by its positive attributes.
When we program the coffee maker to come on in the morning, we have sometimes found coffee all other the counter and floor. It seems if the carafe is not exactly right in the coffee maker it will run out the filter and not all the coffee will make it into the carafe.
We have also found that sometimes the coffee grounds get into the pot. We use the permanent filter, so the paper filter folding over is not the issue. We can't figure out why this happens occasionally.
In addition, the grinder is pretty loud so if you have sleeping children close to the kitchen, you may want to use ground coffee instead of whole bean.
Now for the positive attributes. First, this machine makes great coffee.Whole or ground, the coffee is always top notch. Second, we drink a lot of coffee, so it can handle several times a day use.Since we use it so much, we have to clean it a lot and it has held up well.
This is a beautiful machine, it really is a cut above the rest in this price range. It's also relatively compact. There are many machines that take up much more space, that do not make such great coffee.
The carafe keeps the pot piping hot for much longer than a standard pot. It is so nice not need to microwave the coffee.
We truly love this coffee maker, and we've had quite a few. It is well worth the price and would buy it again if we ever need to!
