Works fine, but it's not as nice as you'd think.

Gevalia CM-500 12-Cup Stainless Steel Coffee Maker — 

Granted, this coffeepot was free, but... one would think that ordering "gourmet" high-end coffee might be associated with a little bit nicer piece of machinery.  Yes, it does have the programmable timer, which is my favorite feature, so my coffee can be ready and waiting for me in the morning.  But it requires a special type of filter, and the stainless steel shows up every smudge and fingerprint.  And in the process of getting the coffee prepared, it somehow ends up leaking water all over my countertop.  It does have a sort of low-end feel to it.  But regardless, the cup of coffee it turns out is always delicious.

The coffee is very tasty,just a bit pricy
I agree with you about the coffee maker.
My first one leaked, they sent another one free !
They really will go out of their way to keep a customer.
